I'm in the US and have had multiple MRI scans happen either the same day as an appointment or the next. Compared to that, even a month seems pretty long.

It wasn't urgent, I wasn't in pain, there was no rush. If it is sufficiently urgent it's possible to get an MRI within minutes of arriving at a major hospital.
It was the same for me. It was a "there's technically a small chance it might be a tumor of some kind, so we'll check just to make sure" type of deal.
