We drive almost 2 hours one way to get here, appointment is at 1 o’clock, they don’t get back from lunch until 1 o’clock, an hour later still are not seen. If a doctor’s office has too many patients to schedule on a day, they cannot have their doctors on time to their appointments, they need to do something different. If the patient is late to their appointment, they are either not seen or are they have to be charged extra for a late fee? This is the second time we’ve been here second appointment and again hour late.
