While you expect a delay when booking for an afternoon visit, you don't expect one at 8am in the morning. I've booked two 8am visits to Dr Himali and by 8.30am in the morning, Dr Himali had not even arrived at the practice. Apologetic receptionists had not on either occasion, received a phone call from Dr Himali to say she was running late or to apologise to those patients waiting. I have also witnessed other patients disgruntled in the waiting room by the same situation. The same lateness and lack of remorse also occurred with my husband's visit so this is obviously common practice. Then my appt seemed rushed when I did get in, with no apology. If I ran my business like this, I'd simply be out of business. This GP charges $80 per visit. We moved to another doctor who takes their patients more seriously.
