For my own appointments, I'm generally on the same page. I have a harder time being as patient when I'm taking one of my kids to the doctor, which is a much more frequent occurrence. I've been kept waiting for exorbitant lengths of time at a variety of pediatric clinics, which is unpleasant when your kids object to being confined in a small, boring room for an indefinable amount of time. Sometimes it's been so egregious that I've had to switch to another provider.

Yeah, that sounds live it sucks. I'd hate to have kids in the US with its long wait times and relatively shitty healthcare.
