[quote=Anonymous]I'll usually give it 15-20 minutes before checking in with the desk. Depending on what they say I'll stick around for another 15-20 minutes. Only once did I go up and politely say I couldn't wait any longer and had to go, we rescheduled the appointment and I wasn't charged anything. I do give some offices more grace, like my OB, because I know things can get tricky there...and I was once the patient that probably made other people's appointments late when my water broke over a month early on top of the risk factors we were already monitoring. In the 90s I saw this doctor regularly where the wait in the lobby was consistently 45 minutes then another 30 minutes in the room in the back. There's no way I'd accept that now, but I was young and dumb then. [/quote]
