[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eh I wouldn’t pay. And I’d let them know why [/quote]

Cool. Enjoy finding a new doctor’s office. [/quote]

Unlikely. I’ve had to leave in person appts before bc I had to get back to work and couldn’t wait. It happens. It’s their fault for being so behind. Any half way decent practice would waive the fee [/quote]

That's a very strange thing to do.  If you have a health condition, then doctor's appointment are very important and can take a long time to schedule.  If you are a healthy person, then doctor's appointments are rare and are probably important when they come up.  I just don't understand making an appointment, going to the appointment, and then leaving.  Maybe medical phobia?[/quote]

You sound ESL or spectrum or something off.

If you have a work meeting, sometimes you have to prioritize. It happens. No normal practice will charge you when they’re late, and they will typically work to reschedule you quickly. I go to a concierge group practice so I rarely have trouble getting an appt. [/quote]

Scheduling a work meeting 20 minutes after an appointment starts is a bad decision.  Even if the appointment had started exactly on time she wouldn't have been able to make it.

You pay a ton of money, more than OP's $50 for the privilege of not waiting, that's nice, but it's not relevant here. [/quote]
