Reception didn't pass on appointment details to staff
I attended an appointment this afternoon with my young child who was experiencing a high temperature. The receptionist advised that a slot was available shortly after arrival, though this information did not appear to reach the clinical staff.

About as useful as discussing your health concerns with a retail worker, except the retail worker would treat you with courtesy, whereas the staff here did not.
