[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] 1. "It takes far too long to get an appointment." --> schedule more patients per day 2. "I have to wait too long for the appointment I made, and it's too short a visit." Pick one. Either one, just commit. Or go concierge, I suppose.[/quote] I'm confused. Most of us have to wait a long time to get an appointment AND rarely actually see the doctor at our appointment time. Totally get that this is because of our dysfunctional healthcare system, but if you are tired of angry patients, find a strategy that is respectful of their time - meaning, explain the wait when they arrive, apologize and offer the option to reschedule - saying "please sit down for an indefinite period of time and the doctor will see you when they are ready and don't complain" is not going to serve you or them well.[/quote] Hey, this isn't my problem. But if you don't want to wait, pay for concierge. [/quote]
