If I use On My Way, will I still have to wait once I arrive?
Our staff is required to treat the sickest people first. This may mean that people who arrive after you will be seen sooner. We hope you understand the need to provide immediate care to people based on the severity of their illness. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
What if I’m late for my arrival time?
If you are more than 15 minutes late for your slotted time, your saved time will no longer be available. We will do our best to accommodate you with a new estimated wait time.
