Good.  You need to be your own advocate and not rely on the doctors for everything.

Oh for heaven's sakes. A simple oversight doesn't mean a doctor is terrible at their job. It means a receptionist or scheduler could have made a mistake. I mean I'm sure nobody here has ever made a mistake, not ever, but that doesn't mean you should go searching for a new doctor three-quarters of the way through your pregnancy because somebody may or may not have goofed.

If they forgot then you need a new OB doctor. Its not your responsibility to have to worry because they arnt doing what there trained to do. Got mine done at 29 weeks.

Generally it's done between 25-28 weeks. Definitely give a call to your provider to see if it was an oversight in scheduling. Lots of perfectly healthy people test positive that you'd never expect.
