Reception ignored patients and didn't explain delays
I arrived at reception and found myself waiting without acknowledgment from the staff members present for what felt like an extended period. While sitting in the waiting area, I observed other patients approaching the desk to report they had already been waiting over 40 minutes for their appointments, only to be told they were next, before being asked to return to their seats for a further 15 minutes or more. When new patients arrived for scheduled appointments, reception staff did not inform them about the existing delays, which would have given them the opportunity to decide whether to wait, reschedule, or step outside. Instead, they were simply directed to sit down, unaware they were joining a queue that would result in a considerable wait. I also witnessed a situation where a patient requested an earlier appointment slot than the one they had booked.

This request appeared to be accepted without objection. There has been no advance notice given to patients regarding the delays experienced. Following what I observed regarding how certain requests were handled, it appears there would be benefit from additional staff training and clearer management oversight.

When the appointment time is limited and there appears to be little genuine engagement with your concerns, it becomes clear that returning for future visits may not be worthwhile.
