I came to the walk in clinic for a simple doctor's note to allow me to go back to work full time after an accident.
The receptionist was very nice and accommodating and I heard her tell several walk in patients, who came in after me, that it'll be an hour, then 1.5 hours and then 2 hour wait time.
I've now been waiting 2 hours myself and have seen several people go ahead of my, presumably booked appointments, which is fine.
The clinic is quite cold with the A/C running non stop and even on a summer's day like today I'm starting to freeze. I'm not exactly prepared with a winter's coat here.
The doctors seem to take their time and with only one doctor, according to the chart, taking walk in patients it is a bit strange that he would also take appointments.
They do allow a walk in patient to leave and return a little closer to their estimated appointment time, which is nice. Would have also been nice to have been told before I waited 1.5 hours already...
2.5 hours later I was called in. A nurse asked why I was seeing the doctor and took down some digital notes.
The clinic has quite a lot of rooms and for only 2 doctors to be working on a Thursday morning/lunch time is strange. read more
