    Why Is My Doctor Always Late? Inside the Chaos of Clinic Appointments

    In this first episode Dr. Grant, a non-traditional family medicine physician, explores why clinic and ER appointments often run late. She shares personal stories and begins unpacking the many factors—check-in delays, late patients, complex cases, and systemic pressures—that create appointment backlogs. Listeners will get a clear, empathetic look at the hidden workflow challenges in healthcare and learn what contributes to long waits, with more episodes promised to dive deeper into specific causes.

    The CrocDoc Trailer

    The goal of The CrocDoc is simple: to give you clarity, to help you understand the “why” behind your experiences in and out of the doctor's office, and to share the perspective — and yes, the frustrations — of the medical staff who live this every day. This trailer will give you an idea of what this podcast is and isn't and I hope you will join me on this journey of confronting how medicine is broken and how it affects you as the patient and the team trying to give you the care you deserve.
