    Why is everyone in a rush? 15 minutes? I work in the health-care industry, and watch doctors take a patient in for a 15-minute ‘checkup,’ and the person will ramble on about every minor ache and pain and then their friends’ pains! Would you rather he be rude and show the patient the door? Then they complain about ‘no bedside manner’.

    How about our doctors having 10-15 minutes to see a patient, then the patient is 5 minutes late (oh, that’s acceptable, isn’t it?), then by the time the person fills out paperwork, gets settled into a room, the time is up.

    One last thing: Why not call before going to the doctor’s office to see if he’s running behind, if your time is such money? Makes common sense to me.

    Our doctors are not making a lot of money. Especially not enough to be worth what they put up with.
