70: Why Are GP's always Late?

Why Are GPs Always Late?You show up on time. You wait. And wait. And wait.This week, Rosie and Roula tackle a universal frustration: doctors who never run on time. From 10-minute delays to full hours spent in a waiting room, they vent about the absurdity of scheduled appointments that mean absolutely nothing and the larger, uncomfortable reality behind it all: healthcare as a business.Rosie is fired up (no surprise), and Roula gets passionate about respect, cultural gaps in care, and how our time is devalued by a system that treats patients like passive bodies in a queue.This episode explores:- Why we tolerate GPs being chronically late  - The deeper power dynamic between doctors and patients  - How healthcare systems often prioritize efficiency over empathy  - The quiet rebellion of asking: why is this okay?If you’ve ever sat in a waiting room wondering why no one respects your time this one’s for you.Keywordshealthcare, GP appointments, patient rights, waiting times, healthcare business, advocacy--------------------☕️ Buy us a coffee!🎙️ Send us a voice message🛍️ Buy some Rosie and Roula merch!--------------------⭐️ Leave us a review▶️ Follow us on Instagram and TikTok🎞️ Subscribe to our YouTube channel--------------------🎧 Check out Roula's podcast🎧 Check out Rosie's podcast
