Everyone knows no one needing a wheelchair gets an ultrasound!

Anyone want to help me figure out why the waiting area for ultrasounds at my local hospital isn't wheelchair accessible, being too narrow?

I had a similar experience at the dentist. I don't use a wheelchair but I do use a cane and the panoramic was set up so that I'd have to stand in the middle of this large room with no support. I was told my cane might "pose a problem." Fortunately, I can stand without it for a few minutes but for anyone in a chair or who can't stand without assistive devices, it was a mess.
