One woman at my doctor's surgery is a right cow, and enjoys annoying patients. She specialises in giving you appointments for weeks ahead. I found this out when the following exchange took place
Me: " I need an appointment with Dr A, if you wouldn't mind"
receptionist : "Thursday fortnight"
Me: "Dr A asked me to come back at the end of the treatment. Is there nothing before that ?"
Receptionist. "There's Wednesday week."
Me: "Dr A said to see her immediately I finished the treatment."
Receptionist: " Oh, alright, day after tomorrow, then."
Clearly there was a space, but she just didn't want to let me have it. It was not part of the emergency appointments arrangements - she just wanted to make me wait as long as possible.
