I recently came across a site of a Pediatrics office. It had photos of the waiting area, and it showed that they had designated an area for sick, and an area for well children to wait. I think this shows concern for the patients, and it is something that all Pediatric offices should do. How many times have you taken your child to the doctor for a yearly exam and two days later he/she has a fever!
This is another reason we recommend Play Tables rather than loose toys. The loose toys can be mouthed, and can harbor germs.
A simple reconfiguration of the waiting area, and a sign designating each area would be a simple change, but it sure would mean a lot to the moms and dads bringing the kids in.
