If you have an appointment at a certain time shouldn't the doctor try to keep it? For example if you are scheduled to see the Doctor at 2, by 2:15 the Doctor should be asking you to open your mouth and say 'ahhhh' unless there is some critical emergency. He also shouldnt stop in the middle of an exam to go see the pharmaceutical rep.
If Doctors are going to have you wait, make it comfortable for us. Give us some Lazy-boys. Put in a jukebox and a dozen or so tvs so we can watch sports or the news or something, not the health channel tv where they are showing the latest in cancer treatements. Maybe have a bar where we could enjoy some frosty beverages and munch on so me nachos or wings while we wait for the doctor. Our HMO's could give us 2 for 1 coupons to make us go to the Doctor more often and get our wellness check ups.
Finally, if they are drawing blood, you should be able to cause bodily harm to the PA or RN if they cant get the vein on the first try. Maybe patients could attempt and miss to draw blood everytime the medical person misses on us.
