re: Your appointment is at 10, but come 15 minutes early…WTF?

I had to take my grandpa to his cardiologist appointment last week. The appointment was at 11. We got there at 10:30, waited an hour and 15 minutes only to see someone deliver lunch and have every single person in the office disappear for another 45 minutes and come back smiling like we hadn’t been sitting there for 2 hours.

This is EXACTLY how I feel about this. If they want us to be punctual then they should be held to it as well. Medical appointments are a joke, there are endless waiting areas. Show up for appointment, wait for them to call you. Then you get escorted to a smaller, individual waiting room. It's typical to wait 1-2 hours after arrival, regardless whether I showed up 15mins early or not.
