I heard this quite a few years ago, never tried it....but our time is as valuable as anybody else's time (outside of emergencies/extenuating circumstances) and I worked for an MD who kept the patients waiting for 5 hours in his waiting room....the elderly were the victims in this case....it was 20+ years ago.  And don't you just hate waiting in the waiting room for over an hour and then waiting in that examining room for any length of time beyond 10-15 minutes?!?!  Usually a 30-45 minute wait and I don't like that either....


Most of us have places to go, people to see, things to do.....all as important as anybody else.....they are not gods....far from it, actually.


Yeah, they pay our bills/mortgage/rent but doesn't mean we have to like 'em....*l*


thanks for the place to vent...
