I
am
writing
to
relay
to
you
a
poor
client
experience.
On
Wednesday
afternoon,
I
called
your
clinic
to
make
an
appointment
for
an
x-ray.
The
gentleman
who
answered
the
phone
told
me
that
your
clinic
accepts
walk-ins,
and
that
I
would
be
welcome
to
come
in
on
Thursday
or
Friday.
Today
is
Friday,
and
as
advised
I
walked
in.
The
lady
at
the
desk,
Lois,
asked
whether
I
had
an
appointment.
I
told
her
no,
and
relayed
the
conversation
I’d
had
earlier:
that
your
clinic
accepts
walk-ins.
She
asked
if
I
had
a
referral,
which
I
produced
for
her
on
my
phone.
She
told
me
it’s
not
good
enough,
and
that
I
can
make
an
appointment.
I
asked
her
why,
as
I
was
given
the
impression
your
clinic
accepts
walk-ins.
She
rolled
her
eyes
at
me
and
told
me
to
email
the
referral
to
this
very
same
email
address,
and
informed
me
once
more
that
I
can
make
an
appointment.
I
asked
“are
you
telling
me
you
don’t
accept
walk-ins?”
She
said
“No,
I’m
just
giving
you
all
the
options.
Why
are
you
being
this
way?”
After
eventually
taking
my
details
and
sending
me
to
the
waiting
area,
she
followed
me
out
to
the
waiting
area
from
behind
her
desk
to
say
in
the
most
passive
aggressive
way,
“I
hope
you
have
a
better
than
what
you’re
having
now.
I
don’t
know
why
you
came
in
here
like
this.”
I
found
this
interaction
quite
rude
and
needlessly
hostile.
Why
did
Lois
feel
the
need
to
inform
me
about
making
an
appointment
when
(a)
I
clearly
didn’t
have
one;
and
(b)
I
had
already
made
the
trip
to
your
clinic
and
was
standing
right
there
with
my
documentation?
I
noticed
that
even
her
colleague,
who
sat
to
her
right,
shot
her
a
glance
and
audibly
whispered
to
her
to
“stop
it!”
Lois’
job
is
to
get
me
triaged
and
into
the
queue,
not
to
berate
clients.
Lois
is
condescending
and
unable
to
read
the
room.
She
has
poor
rapport
with
your
clients.
I
strongly
suggest
you
provide
her
with
the
proper
training
in
people
skills
before
she
turns
off
other
customers.
