    Where I am it’s very difficult to get in to see a doctor. Last time there was a sign on the counter saying “there were 53 no-shows last week, please call to cancel if you can’t make it”

    It’s fucking bullshit.

      No shows really suck for both doctors and other patients. Lots of places could fill that spot with 24 hours notice. Some could probably be fine with 4 hours.
