Im lucky. Ive been seeing the same doctor my whole life.
They know I live less than 5 mins from the office. At 30 before, they text me to check in over the phone. They then give me a time they actually want to see me. The office is usually running ahead of schedule, so its often a text just saying, ‘head on over’ and I just walk in and get escorted straight back to a nurse waiting to take my vitals.
My fav was a doc office that gave arrival times, not appointment times. When pressed, the appointment time was 30 minutes after the arrival time.
