Look. Sometimes it’s my fault that i run late. But a not insignificant number of my patients roll in right before the no-show cut off, which is 15 mins for my clinic. My new patient slots are 30 mins. By the time my MA is done rooming them, there’s 5-10 mins left in their slot.

None of that includes charting time after i see them.
Especially if you want your doctor to be fully present in the room, and not talking to a computer screen.
I know people’s time is valuable. I very much try to run on time. Sometimes it just isn’t in the cards.
