This above scenario has happened at my oncology doctor, family doctor, hospital waiting room, chiropractor, dentist, and optometrist.

I told my docs and dentist that my schedule is tight and important to a lot of people and that I therefore bill by the hour, starting fifteen minutes after my scheduled appointment time. They all chuckled but seem to have gotten the message because, except in the case of a genuine emergency, I've never had to wait more than a few minutes ever since.
