Terrible customer service and misleading appointment scheduling

Unfortunately, the high volume of patient calls has led the reception staff to adopt a discourteous and impassive demeanor, often abruptly ending calls mid-conversation. They appear to treat patients condescendingly, preemptively responding before a question is fully asked. On Thursday, they claim July appointments aren't open yet, instructing you to call Monday after 11 AM. Following their guidance, you meticulously reschedule work meetings and call precisely at 11, only to be told no July appointments are available. Upon further inquiry, they suddenly reveal appointments exist but are fully booked for the next two weeks. The rapid transformation between Thursday and Monday raises suspicions - how could all non-urgent slots be completely reserved in such a short timeframe? One can't help wondering if the staff are being truthful or potentially reserving slots for personal connections. It's disheartening that for a critical surgical practice without online booking, securing an appointment has been consistently challenging. In four years, I've never successfully booked a same-day or near-future slot, consistently encountering dismissive responses (with rare exceptions from a few compassionate receptionists who communicate transparently). Given these repeated frustrations, I've decided to terminate my association with this practice and cannot in good conscience recommend them to others.
