I told my partner it'd be fine having this appointment before her job interview, there's plenty of time, well, it's 25 minutes in and the fucking doctor still hasn't come in. It's supposed to be a fucking 30 minute appointment!

even though the guy in my room who has almost the same symptoms and came 3 hours later than me already had his several hours ago.

also see like, this is very frustrating to experience, and I get that they can't tell you another patient's private information but they could at least apologize and be like "We're so sorry, due to certain reasons we had to bump his scan in front of yours, but we're doing our best to get yours done. It's looking like it'll be (whatever their best estimate is for the current delay)" but instead you just sit there like ?????????????????????? why'd this guy go in front of me?????????

all the comments in this thread defending it are frustrating me, like, doctor appointments just seem to be this unique temporal event where it's just like being in line at a drive through and you have no idea what's taking the person in front of you so long, but also, you're literally scheduling them, for a specific point in time
