In my clinic the patients are asking if the doctor is 11 minutes late, i ask them if they've ever read their letters that state prepare to be here at least 2-3 hours in case of delay. Every patient takes a various amount of time y'all.

I take the Dennis Reynolds approach:
“I will come down on this hospital like the hammer of Thor! The thunder of my vengeance will echo through these corridors like the gust of a thousand winds!”
After 5 minutes I go find someone and tell them that I took time off work to be there, we scheduled an appointment for an agreed upon time, and they're wasting my time with their unprofessional conduct. The doctor usually shows up within minutes after that. Don't put up with their bullshit. Your time is every bit as valuable as theirs. If there was an emergency then I'm perfectly understanding, but that's rarely the case.

30 minutes period. Why would I give them far more time than is considered reasonable in basically any other context? I have walked out before
