What word to use?
If you want to change an appointment at the doctor's office to a later time you say "I want to postpone my appointment"
But what if you want to change the appointment to an earlier time, do you say "I want to advance my appointment"?
And also do I use "an" in the sentence "an earlier time" or do I use "a"
Thanks so much.

Hi, If you want to change an appointment at the doctor's office to a later time you say "I want to postpone my appointment" Actually, I'd say "I'd like to change my appointment to a later time, please'. If someone just says 'I want to postpone my appointment', it sounds to me like they are not yet ready to chose a specific later time. But what if you want to change the appointment to an earlier time, do you say "I want to advance my appointment"?
