So last week we dutifully showed up to the maternal unit's kidney doctor appointment the requested 15 minutes early. My crochet hook had fallen out of my bag so I sat there with no craft to work in but no problem, I can make due with my phone. Thirty minutes after her appointment I'm getting a bit annoyed to be still in the lobby. We waited another twenty minutes before leaving. The gal at the front desk used the same excuse for everyone. "Well, he had two new patients today." As that was a good explanation for over scheduling. If new patients take twice as long, schedule them further apart. This does not appear to require a PhD or anything.
Fast forward to today. We had to go have her finger pricked to extract a drop of blood for a routine test. This requires another 40 minutes of sitting in the waiting room. Our appointment was for 9am. How can you be behind on a finger stick by an hour at nine in the morning? Walk ins are NOT welcome.
After a night of little continuous sleep, I was not a nice human being and being delayed twice in six days was pushing my limits of polite language.
Not quite this... But close....
