Me: 30 minutes past my appointment (after arriving 20 minutes early) watching people walk in then get called back within 3 minutes. Fuck doctors offices so much.
Update: Nurse took me to the room. Answered prelim questions then she left. Still waiting for the doctor 20 minutes later. It is now 40 minutes past my appointment time and no sign of the person taking my money.
Let’s be honest, when was the last time anyone actually saw a doctor when they were scheduled to?
Kind of wish we could walk out and send them a “cancelled appointment fee” after 15 minutes.
A few weeks ago, for the first time in my life, they got to my appointment EARLY. And not just 30 seconds early. I’m talking 20 minutes. I was flabbergasted.
It’s possible that you filled a No Show slot
That’s absolutely what happened
Hopefully the doctor was able to degast your flabbers!
I had an allergy reaction test with my son last week. It’s a two hours test where he eats an increasingly bigger portion of allergen to see if he is still allergic.
We arrive 15 mins early for our scheduled start at 9:15. We are the first of the day for the test. 9:55 we finally see the doctor. The first appointment of the day starts late by 40 mins.
The appointment before that one, we were scheduled at 10:00. By 11:45, we still haven’t seen the doctor to start the two hour test. And I’m being told that this is normal by a nurse.
Just fucking infuriating all around.
