  • The last time I took my daughter to the doctor’s, we had the 8:30am appointment. First of the day.

    I was feeling pretty optimistic that we would be in and out by 8:45.

    So we arrive at 8:20 and take our seats in the waiting room. 8:30 rolls around, no call. 8:40, no call. 8:50 no call. At 8:55 a side door opens and 8 doctors stroll out with coffees in hand and make their way to their individual consulting rooms.

    At 9:10 we got the call to go in.

    I get that they might need to have a morning meeting to get setup for the day, but 8 doctors each wasting 40 minutes, and the entire appointment book playing catch-up for the rest of the day, seems like a colossal piss take.

    Why not, like, have your meeting earlier…?
