I usually wait 15-20 minutes for anyone who is late, if there is not other information.
Sometimes 30 for my primary care doc, but I suppose there is "other information" there. She often runs late because she doesn't rush patients when she is with them. I either schedule first thing in the morning or make sure my schedule can accommodate a wait.
