Receptionists are not ****ing trained for triaging and stuff. Most do not understand medical problems and should be there solely to take appointments and such, they should have NO say in if you can see a doctor or not.

They are told to do thus though in an effort to screen out time wasters, it's not fair on them or the patient if it is practice policy and they are made to do this as part of their minimum wage job
