It is not uncommon for highly skilled and sought after doctors to give their patients such a short visit. They often get deluged with patients looking for miracle solutions to tedious problems. They may also be focused on finding that next patient that has a problem that is worthy of publication in a national or worldwide journal.

Good to hear she did not find any problems.

I like to compare fast doctors this way.

If you have a loved one who is going into surgery, it is common to ask how long the surgery will take. If the surgeon says, 3 to 5 hours, you sure hope he walks out of the surgery at 3 hours to tell you everything went fine. If you have not heard anything at the 5 hour mark, you start to get worried. Then, if the slightest complications come up, you wonder if it took so long because the problem was more than the surgeon could handle.

I'll take the faster doctor.
