I have been a patient with CHCN for over a decade, receiving care across multiple services including dental and gynecology. Today’s experience was extremely disappointing. I arrived at 3:55 PM for my 3:40 PM appointment, which falls within the stated 15-minute grace period. Despite this, Nurse Tatiana Duplessis chose to cancel my appointment. I was also her last in-person patient of the day, with only televisits remaining before closing at 5 PM. Given how far out these appointments are typically scheduled, especially for women’s health concerns, this decision felt dismissive and unprofessional. Long-standing patients should be met with a level of understanding and flexibility, not turned away over a matter of minutes. This experience has left me feeling undervalued as a patient. I hope this feedback is taken seriously, as this community deserves healthcare providers who prioritize patient care alongside policy.
