I have no idea where you might have seen that, unless you're exaggerating, or the GP has had alot of patient no-shows. Virtually all GP's I've worked with barely even have enough time to eat a sandwhich for lunch while standing, let alone sitting around. Unless you misinterpreted them reviewing charts or writting notes on each patient in the paperwork; paperwork which I should mention often doesnt get done until after work, often taking a couple hours to complete without payment.
And yes, as one astute poster has figured out, if you are the first patient to be seen, you will be seen on time because the day hasnt been bogged down yet.
