While I understand that doctors have a lot of patients to see, I don't see myself waiting that long to find out the day is almost over.  There are a lot of times when patients are visiting the doctor just to get the medicine.  I have waited maybe 30 or 45 minutes at the least and over 2 hours at the most.  Do not mention the emergency room!  I waited in there so long my leg went numb, and I was going because my baby toe on my right foot was broken. :sad1:

I guess the longest time I went was after I had my daughter.  I did not go back to the ob for about seven years.

30-40 mins max! I lived in a small town growing up so the Dr office wasnt busy 24/7! :) I don't go to the Dr anymore! Medicines make you weak!

I live in a small city so I don't have to wait an extremely long time to see a doctor, but when we had to take our daughter to a university hospital, we waited for hours before seeing someone, that was terrible, because we had an 6 hour drive to get back home.

3 hours and the doctor only talked to me for 4 minutes

Yeah, that is the kicker, you go, you sit for a couple of hours waiting and then you go in for just a few minutes. What good is an appointment, if you still have to wait for hours, what would happen if you didn't have an appointment.
