@avantgame I see both sides, sucks for patients who are slightly late but if schedule is off med staff have to stay later.

@AshSogla I know... But I can't remember the last time a doctor didn't have me wait more than 10 minutes past appt time so it feels unfair

@avantgame Frustrating. I ended up waiting 1.5 hrs to see Doc for checking in 5 mins late after standing in the reception line for 10 mins. -

@avantgame I usually try to squeeze late patients in, but not always possible. Ripple effect on other patients and clinic staff. -
@andrewswright@avantgame So you see all your patients within 10 minutes of the appointment? -
@apere006@avantgame not always but I try. Difficulty is in predicting how long each patient will take. Some pts need longer than scheduled -
@apere006@avantgame here is a nice piece from the@kevinmd blog on why physicians often run late.http://www.kevinmd.com/blog/2015/02/know-doctor-late-read.html … -
@andrewswright@apere006@kevinmd I don't mind physicians running late! I was just astonished to be told to reschedule in 3 weeks

@avantgame Mine rebukes me even when I'm barely on time, despite knowing about my physical and time management issues. -
@avantgame Only one I've found in the area familiar with my condition. But I only go when necessary now.
