Taking Calcium & Vitamins

I am aware that I am not supposed to take calcium WITH my multivitamins, but I wonder how far apart can I take them?

    My Dr. told me to take my multivitamin and then 2 hours later take no more then 500mg of calcium and then the rest another 2 hours after that. he said your body can't absorb more then the 500 at a time and you need sufficent time in between for it to absorb.
