Frustrating medical practice with zero patient convenience

I've been a loyal patient at Riverside for years, but their service has deteriorated significantly. Their appointment system is incredibly inconvenient, offering only same-day slots that are impractical for full-time workers who can't easily take sudden time off. There's zero flexibility - you can't even request an afternoon appointment and are simply assigned the next available time. Missing the 8am booking window means you'll likely be turned away and told to call back the next day. Even if you manage to call precisely at 8am, you'll endure an absurdly long hold time. The receptionists demand to know your medical reason for visiting, and if you're uncomfortable sharing personal details in a potentially public setting, you're out of luck. This means anyone calling from a shared workspace risks exposing their medical concerns to colleagues. While the medical staff - nurses and some doctors - are genuinely excellent, the overall administrative experience is frustratingly poor.
