"Need to be able to book at Royal Brisbane Hospital."

About: Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital

(as the patient),

There does not appear to be a system for patients to book to see a doctor at the Specialist clinics. It seems to me that too many patients are booked all at the same time which can cause waiting times to extend beyond two [2] hours and in some cases several hours. In one case (I think, because a doctor did not turn up at the clinic) I was not seen by a doctor until after 4 pm after arriving at 8: 30 am as directed by the hospital booking center. I did not see that staff advised waiting patients of the problem, and complaints from patients about waiting times were on going all day.
