My clinic has an online portal and one of the functions is I can book appointments online. I sent a PM to my doctor today in which I explained I have had back pain since 2014 but I don’t know my diagnosis for it. I had tests done years ago and arthritis in my lower back was mentioned but I’m not sure so I asked my PCP if she can either look at my back herself or refer me to a specialist. The nurse wrote back for me to book an appointment online. I spent 5 minutes trying to do that but there’s no openings before April 24th and their system won’t book an appointment past April 24th.
So this is what I wrote back to the nurse, “How do I book an appointment, there’s no appointments before April 24th and your system won’t let me book an appointment past April 24th? I don’t understand because every time I go in for an appointment they’re usually literally only 0-2 people in the waiting room. You guys don’t seem that busy. What am I supposed to do?”
It’s not really that rude or nasty but I was frustrated and I wanted them to get that. Hopefully, they don’t get mad or something. It wasn’t that bad or a rude PM was it?
