Are you a patient 'patient'?
 
How long are you willing to wait before you start to get 'antsy'?
 
Are your doctors usually on time or late?

I don't go to the doctor's office too often.  Since I'm a nurse I usually just call & the docs send lab orders, scripts, etc.  But when I do have to see them (twice a year) they know I don't wait long.  Of course I understand emergencies but the receptionist will give me the option of waiting or rescheduling.  I hate to admit it, but working in the medical field has its advantages.

Are you a patient 'patient'?  Absolutely not.
 
How long are you willing to wait before you start to get 'antsy'?  Maybe 10-15 minutes then I start to get pissed.  If you have an emergency either call me before hand and reschedule or alert me in the office so I can reschedule.  Don't pull the put me in the exam room after letting me sit for 20 minutes then make me wait another 20.  Homey don't do that!
 
Are your doctors usually on time or late?  Late so I stopped going to my regular dr and started going to the emergency care place.  I actually like this one dr. very much.  But I only go when I absolutely HAVE to.

Are you a patient 'patient'?  Not very
 
How long are you willing to wait before you start to get 'antsy'?  Now...I wait until about a half-hour...it used to be 15 minutes
 
Are your doctors usually on time or late?  I came from more metropolitan areas...where offices were more professional...and am alot like Claw...if the doctor's are 'behind'...let me know...I can come in later or at least be given the option to stay or go...but the offices around here aren't that way...and there's a shortage of doctors so they're really overloaded...so I just sit and wait...but I'm not happy about it...
