That's been my gripe. I'm more productive in the evening, and surprised there aren't clinics that either run extended hours or shift to later hours in the day. Same with banks. Why are they only open when I'm stuck at work? Fortunately I can go years without stepping foot into a bank now.
If I had a practice of any sort, I'd boost revenue and offset the fixed costs of the infrastructure by seeing patients over a longer hours. Rather than building a bigger facility, I'd just spread out appointments over a longer time-frame and offer hours more compatible with people's needs.
