Today I had a patient go on a rant because our first available appointment wasn’t until next Tuesday. She wasn’t in any pain; simply wanted it for her convenience.
“I’m an established patient..every office is just throwing me around. My husband is a surgeon too, just like your doctor…Did you know that?..wait DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?! At which point I internally rolled my eyes and laughed because yes, unfortunately I know who you are and how does that entitle you to have priority over our patients that are in pain? 🙄
Have her come to my clinic—my next available appointment is in 3 months. Only if your doctor calls me or I’m best with you, or I actually think you’ll die before then, will you get an earlier appointment. I’ll send her back and she’ll be happy it’s Tuesday. 😂
It’s at times like this I look back with fond memories on Ally McBeal and her imagination when she got annoyed🤣. The first time I saw it I remember laughing out loud that someone had put my thought process on film! These are the times I thank God I learnt the deep breathing technique it saved me from losing it with stroppy people all the time. Not sure why people think they can be rude to staff and behave in ways they would never dream of doing in any other environment.

Lol I’d have loved to do that. 🤣 It might have her have a meltdown though.
