At one point I setup an appt with a doctor, 3 weeks set date, and to be the first one in the morning, like 9AM, he cannot be late, right? I left at 11:30AM without seeing him.
Jeez, how is that even possible? Like did some other asshole sneak in and get seen for some crazy disease somehow?
He is a surgeon and was in the hospital nearby, I guess saving life, so it's ok :)
Ahhh that makes much more sense! I thought it was just a regular clinician type of doctor.
Those are often the same people. I work exclusively in the OR, and we occasionally need to pull a doctor from their clinical hours to do an emergency surgery, which means some patient who's expecting a clinical appointment just got fucked.
This comes down to staffing issues, but every hospital on the planet is apparently running a skeleton crew right now, so we work with what we got.
