A pediatric ophthalmology clinic routinely used to end at 6:30 PM or after.  The same clinic now ends around 5:30 PM, despite seeing a higher volume of patients.   

Patients visit lengths were routinely measured at 120 minutes.  After the changes, patient visits now average 71 minutes.  

A pediatric ophthalmology clinic now sees an average of 30-34 patients per clinic session as compared to an old maximum volume of 26 patients.  

An academic retina clinic now sees an average of 20 patients per 1/2 day clinic session and finishes on time versus  17 patients in the past and ending late.
