When they are late, I tell the front desk to re-schedule and leave. I’ve had the dentist complain once or twice over the years but when two entities decide on a time for a meeting, that’s the time it needs to happen. Unlike the office, I’m having to cancel stuff I would normally be doing to be there, they are not.
Eventually I’ll be old and grumpy enough to start sending them bills for late cancellation (probably joking).
The… the norms here are bullshit, both from the PoV of ‘I am a consumer’, and also from the basic professional etiquette of ‘this is a business meeting/exchange’.
Fuck, like… I got a statement from my insurance the other day, saying they didn’t cover 1 of the two sets of glasses I got.
Called em.
Do I owe you money?
No, your optometry provider might bill you later though.
Ah ok, cool, thanks!
… and its been 6 months and the optometrists have yet to send me a bill.
