Reception staff dismissed my paperwork without care

I found the receptionist's manner to be quite dismissive and unhelpful during my visit. After I submitted the forms I had completed, her response suggested they may not have been properly retained, which would explain why I'm unable to schedule an appointment today. It seems the receptionist either lacks adequate training in customer service or may be under considerable stress. For a healthcare setting, I would expect staff to handle interactions with greater professionalism and courtesy. It would be beneficial if the practice could ensure receptionists are equipped with proper communication skills, including how to politely address issues when paperwork goes missing and to request that patients resubmit documents. During our interaction, the receptionist suggested I might be better served by attending a different clinic, which felt dismissive of my needs. Additionally, there appeared to be some confusion or misunderstanding during our conversation that left me feeling uncomfortable. Overall, I believe the practice would benefit from investing in better staff training and support to improve the patient experience at the reception desk.
