Ah. In addition to being in therapy with a pdoc who is always on time, I work for a very popular therapist who always runs late *for no apparent reason!!!* It drives me nuts when there is a client waiting patiently and he is puttering around until 15 - 20 minutes after the scheduled start time. I don't understand it at all. He does always give his clients the full time due, and he schedules every 90 minutes (for a 50 minute appointment) so his day isn't totally out of whack. I always warn new clients now that he "tends to run a bit late" (an understatement), so no need to arrive early and don't panic if he doesn't come get you right away.
This just drives me crazy so OP, I can totally see where you are coming from!
