I used to see this in our country, where 10 people are queueing outside doc's office ( this is public health system) when some well dressed man goes straight into the office not even bothering to ask if there's anyone in there and fast forward a few min and the doctor is 'on break', whilst drinking coffee with the sales rep, while all those people sit and wait. Eventually it got outlawed.

That's extremely rude. How could he just barge into the doctor's office? A physical examination could be taking place.
In my experience at a specialized neurology practice: they wait outside until the doctor is free, then knock on the door and ask if they have a moment. They would almost always get straight to business, never wasted more than half a minute of people's time socializing.
