    Unless the doctor is a friend, I have yet to experience a doctor being on time for his/her clinic hours or even for an appointment. Ok lang to wait in line as long as the doctor is already attending to other patients in his clinic, but waiting in line without knowing when the doctor will be at his clinic is so frustrating.

    feeling ko talaga supply and demand yan. kaunti lang sila, kaya jacked up din ang prices.

    naranasan ko last time nung nag resign ako and hindi pako nag start sa new work ko so wala pako HMO, wala pang 5 mins ung consult ko php700 na agad. whew. lower/middle class na hospital lang ito.

    Meron standard prices sa consultation fees depending sa anong klaseng doctors sa mga big hospitals.

    Some of them came from another hospital, maybe they have 10 or 20 patients lined up there, or like my doctor last week, my appointment was 9am, he came down up from the operating room past lunch time, his surgery started 7am, i didnt complain, what a thankless job

    From my experience, the doctors we know usually do their rounds before their clinic hours. Time for this can vary depending on the number of patients they have to see then when they get back to their clinic, they take down notes and sometimes go over the records of the patients lined up. In my case though, marami talagang patients yung regular docs namin (pedia and OB) and they don't take appointments, lista-pila talaga. Yung dentist, by appointment and they're there the whole day pretty much so walang waiting time unless nag OT yung patient before me.

    There were times na 9-12am ang clinic hours, dadating ka ng before 9am para mauna sa pila (pero most of the time marami na rin nakapila), tapos almost 12 na tsaka palang darating ang doctor. Nakakasira plano sa buong araw, knowing na by 12pm dapat tapos ka na, pero by 1pm pa ang turn mo. Gugutumin ka na, macancel mo pa ibang gagawin mo for the day.

    Parang jco lang to have a semblance na magaling siya dahil haha ng pila.

    Diyan din ako nabwibwisit sa mga doctor na ganyan. Recently lang we transferred to a different surgeon fr my mom because yun unang nagopera sa kaya eh ganyan style. Sobrang tagal dumating. Buti Sana kung meron emergency operation pero wala naman.

    Unprofessional yun mga ganyan doctor. If their patients can wake up early and take the time to go to their clinic meron pang sakit mga yun the least they can do is be on time.

    Parang feeling nila oras lang nila ang importante buti Sana kung hinde magbabayad yun mga patients nila.

    Sabi sabi lang ng iba, some doctors, sinasadyang pahabain muna ang pila bago pupuntamng clinic, para kunwari maraming nagpapa checkup sa kanya.

    Walang problema sa ganyan na extend yun procedure. Surely patients will understand pero yun sa gumawa ng diyos na never dumating ng on time sa clinic hours na mga doctors ang mga gungong

    Like my mom supposedly standard na opereting time niya for her procedure is 3-4 hours pero umabot ng 10 hours.

    I really have no patience sa mga ganyan doctors. Ang dami-daming doctors na magaling or mas magaling pa pero professional na pwede Lipatan.

    Kaya I really took the time to look for a new surgeon for my mom for her second procedure dahil yun unang surgeon ganyan style. I don't care if siya unang nag operate na. Mas magaling na sobrang professional pa kahit during the procedure. Saka pag anong schedule ng appointment siya pa naghintay sa clinic dahil maaga dumadating
