[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this Amy Light?  That business about seeing little kids only during morning hours was beyond presumptuous. [b] Hello?  I know when my kid will be alert and rested, not you. [/b] This was a problem for us was that my kid was in early intervention special education and I refused to cancel that for a dental checkup as they would not see us in the afternoon.  The speech thing you can't do much about other than stick with the provider for a long time to eventually get a good time slot.  The sudden cancellation for a vacation would have sent me over the rails.  I must be like you, OP.  Very aware of the schedule, do long range planning so as not to miss school.  I think your feelings are probably not something parents with typical kids understand.  We also have a lot of other therapy and medical appointments and juggling the calendar is something I spend a lot of time on.  [/quote]

Yes but providers do not shape their policies based on one child.  They base the policy on the behavior of the majority of kids that they see.  Many pediatric dentists are like this because most kids behave better at morning appointments.  I am a dentist (not a pediatric dentist), but I do see kids.  I agree with this policy.[/quote]
