I do not think that doctor's offices should just leave patients sitting in a waiting room for 3 hours and 15 minutes. It's ridiculous. I took my mom to the doctor today and we were there from 2:15 (arrived right on time) to 5:00.
Crazy.
End of rant.
****Okay, sometime in the middle of the night, waking up from a dead sleep, I realized that from 2:15 to 5:00 is not 3 hours and 15 minutes, but 2 hours and 45 minutes, so it wasn't as long as I thought, but it was still annoying. ****

They do this around here too. Mainly it is the specialists that do it. Then they take you an room where you sit for another hour waiting to be seen. Then the doctor comes in...then the doctor, for about one minute and he is cold and too busy for you and sends you on your way.
OMG.....I think I would be just a WEE BIT upset too! I remeber the last time I took Alli for something...they didn't leave us in the waiting room for too long, but we sat back in an examining room for hours! I ALMOST got up & just walked out! I was MAD!!!
I do think they should tell you if they are running more than 30 minutes late and offer to reschedule...you may not want to wait another 2 months for an appointment, but it would still be your choice! I do agree with A Bishop's Wife about the exam room waiting time also. At my gyn, I am often sitting there freezing in a paper towel with no back rest, which is very hard on my back, for up to an hour. Very annoying!
Way too long which ever it is! Unacceptable I say. Don't know what to do about it, but something should be done.
