Reception queue made me miss my appointment

I have been a patient at this practice for over 20 years and have never raised concerns until now. Today, I experienced a lengthy wait at reception of more than 20 minutes before being registered, which I found to be inefficiently managed. The receptionist engaged in extensive conversation that I felt detracted from the speed of service. As a result, I missed my scheduled appointment despite arriving punctually, and subsequently waited a further 20 minutes before being seen by clinical staff. I was disappointed with this experience. I would recommend that reception staff consider additional training to improve efficiency and reduce non-essential conversation during check-in procedures, or alternatively explore whether their skills might be better utilised in administrative roles away from the front desk.
