How come I get charge $50 bucks if I’m two seconds late to an appointment but the doctor can be 15 minutes late and only talk to you for like 5 minutes and kick you out with the full hour charge like cmon 😭

No fr like hoe you have to be here, this is literally your job to manage time with patients. I’d get fired so fast if I was that consistently off schedule and late with tasks

My dr was making me wait over an hour and would rush through all my appointments. I’d be spending 2-4 hrs at the drs office. It drove me insane bc I work full time night shift and that cuts into my sleep, which I desperately need. So now I’m looking for a new dr 😭

Also with the fact that almost all doctor’s offices are not open on weekends, scheduling should be even more strict because people have to get in and out and be able to go to work on time during the week.

I usually ended up waiting a half hour to an hour longer than my appointment when I was doing my quarterly medication check ins (which took literally 5 minutes) so I feel too passionate about this 😭

Omg I did not expect this to blow up but ig I’ll share my story. I waited ALONE in a backrooms-ass doctor’s office with the door shut for 2 hours before my doctor’s ASSISTANT- not her but her ASSISTANT came in and saw to me. Then my doctor came in for 5 minutes and sent me on my merry way! There was $25 dollars for NOTHING

Oh my god that’s what mine would do EVERY TIME. Except it wasn’t an assistant it would always be a student, which I wouldn’t mind if the dr actually listened to me as much as the students do
