Terrible medical center with impossible phone access

Terrible customer support! Nearly every attempt to contact the medical practice by phone ends in frustration. Today, I spent over an hour making more than 50 call attempts, only to be met with a persistent "user busy" message. This isn't a recent Covid-related issue; the problem has been ongoing and progressively deteriorating. Previously, I've endured phone wait times exceeding two hours without ever reaching anyone. During one visit, I discovered the receptionist was single-handedly managing both in-person and telephone patient interactions, which seems to be their standard operating procedure. This understaffing explains why patients struggle to communicate with the practice. Management appears completely indifferent to these significant communication barriers. Why haven't they implemented a proper phone queuing system like other medical facilities? It's unacceptable that patients are essentially blocked from accessing basic healthcare communication. I strongly urge them to overhaul their current ineffective system and create a more patient-friendly approach to communication!
