GP Receptionist

Day in the life of working as a receptionist for a gp surgery, the good, bad and the down right rude.

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

Asks for brief outline of problem to patient to work out who to book with... ends up in 10 min waffle of issues FYI not clinically trained or paid enough for that!

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

Why do patients never take responsibility for any mistakes they make?!

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

Where are all the gps at?

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

Why do patients think they are entitled... refusing to wear a mask for a ‘disability’ checks their records and nothing that would indicate this! 🤦‍♀️ WHY LIE TO GET OUT OF WEARING ONE!

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

It’s too hot to be working in a surgery with no air con!

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

That’s going to be fun next week... masks aren’t mandatory but they are at the doctors 😂 bring on the arguments

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

Always been calm and collected... patients hate it when they are being dicks and your nice as pie still telling them no

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

4 days off and safe to say dickheads are out in force

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

It’s sad really you only really remember that patients that are dicks to you and not the ones that aren’t

[GP Receptionist @gpreceptionists]

So given ready to tell my tales on how it is to take a call from patients...
