re: Is timeliness no longer valued at all?

I hate when patients are late and expect, rather demand, to be seen. I put my foot down.
And I totally understand the flip side of the argument. Most doctors offices have ridiculous wait times. I pride myself on being timely and not making my patients wait. I would rather my patients less wait time and I try my hardest to accomplish this. My notes are second fiddle, I’ll do them later.

I can only speak for myself but if I were your patient and you started that shite with me one of us is going to need a damned doctor for certain...and the police. Why the frick would an employee talk to their boss that way??? Would anyone put up with an auto mechanic or a HVAC technician who acted that way toward a customer? Patients are the customer of medical providers...and medical providers are basically mechanics and most of them are not very good mechanics...frick a doctor and them putting their foot down, its a good way for the doc to find a foot up their arse....

That's almost always the case when we go to the pediatrician. Arrive 15 minutes early and then wait 15-20 minutes after the appointment time to be seen. Nothing we get upset about; there's a lot of patients to be seen, but I don't stress myself about being 5 minutes early instead of 15 now.
