      I wouldn't have waited this long without saying something. Regardless of what this Dr had going on there is no reason to make a patient wait this long. These Dr's forget that they work for us, not the other way around. Jess, you're very patient. I would have been raising all types of XXX!!

      I have done my share of waiting, too much I guess. One time last year we went in around 2, sat in the "big" waiting room for couple hrs. then they call my name, all excited we go on back towards the exam rooms, to be shown the "smaller" waiting room. where we sit for another, hr. then get called into the exam room. To wait another 30. It was dark and the office staff had closed up their desks and were gone when we came out. I don't mind too much the waiting, I drive 2 hrs. to get to my dr.s anyway. But when I get the first hint of they are in a hurry, thats when I get a little difficult to deal with. Since I have been in business for years I have mentioned to them before that my time is valuable too, so who should I send the bill to for the 2 hours I waited when I had an apt. for a certain time. ... They never see the humor in that.
