How long do those of you in private practice have for appointments? We run 15 min for wellness and 45 min for sick call. Currently running 2 rooms simultaneously.
20mins wellness (generous, except when they turn into, "Well, he's also been vomiting for a month..."), 30mins sick and 40mins new patient/client or puppy/kitten. I'd rather more time for the sick cases, but I think I take a more thorough history than the other old-timers so that eats into my time.
I had a day from hell yesterday. No life-threatening mistakes were made and yet I still felt like sht. Need to find a way to be more detailed-oriented and just slow my brain the heck down. Doesn't help that I'm questioning whether or not I want to stay where I am for the long haul. Urgh.
