Their hours on 466 are until 7:30 pm, M-F, and until 5:30pm on Sat and Sun. The nice feature is that the patient signs in at a computer kiosk and is told how long until their appointment. My wait the second time was three hours, BUT, I ran errands and even went home to let my dogs out, because the computer generates a message telling me when to return for my appt. time.

In "the old days" we went to the family doctor for an ear infection, not to the emergency room. That is a very real part of the problem. I applaud your use of a clinic . Seems you still had an extended wait. If the problem had serious implications , they would have then sent you to the emergency room.
