| - Can black people do anything without grief?
I check in and sign in to my Doctors appointment as Will, just like I've done the last two times that I came in for an appointment. (My insurance card says Willie)
3 min later they are asking for a "William" to come to the back to see the Dr.
I'm thinking they can't be talking about me right, I just checked in with the 1st receptionist as Will and there were at least 15 other people waiting ahead of me.
Everybody is waiting for William to get up.
The assistant asked 3 times, and a gentleman finally got up and said hey I don't think William is here very loudly.
Then receptionist number 1 with a blatant attitude that just checked me in as Will points directly at me and says he's right there.
So i get up and say my name is Will or Willie not William, who is William and then the entire front desk decided to treat me like a child asking me why my insurance info says "William"?
I asked why don't you tell me because I didn't sign anything as William.
This is my 3rd time coming here, no one ever called me William before it wasn't an issue before why is it today.
And in my mind I'm thinking why does this have to be such a big deal. And why are they making a scene in front of everyone over a simple mistake. (A mistake that they made, you just checked me in as Will and now you're entire crew is giving me the business about what my name is)
I asked why didn't you just say my last name and then the entire staff was trying to correct me with vigor all at once and had no intentions of just giving a simple apology.
I will never come back here again.
"I went there to help lower my blood pressure not raise it"
The assistant that took me to the back didn't care either, she only cared about me getting on the scale and unnecessarily taking my blood pressure when I'm visibly upset I asked her to allow me to breathe and calm down because it's going to be high and she said it doesn't matter we will just check it again later ?????
She checks it anyway and it's like 190 over whatever clearly enough for me to have a damn stroke.
I felt like I was at Starbucks.
Dr Klein is a great physician, but he has a crew of burnt out, disrespectful, miserable, low class, ignorant, unintelligent, no common sense having people working at his front desk.
The entire front staff needs to be replaced working on 4/23/18 9:00am.
The seats, the phones, pens, the countertops pictures anything that shows evidence of any of the current staff at the
There is no excuse for this, it's not about making a mistake with my name either.
It's about the way I was treated over a simple mistake.
I'm suprised that they didn't call security they way their angry faces looked when I asked why did I have to sign in as Will if you were going to ask for "William"?
And the worst part is that my when my lawyer wife called the office director had enough sense to apologise to her but do you think they called me and left me an apology, he'll no.
Maybe if you're white and you come here you will be ok but if your black don't do it unless you want to have a heart attack before you make it to see Dr Kline, just like I almost did.
Maybe this is how the keep the negroes out of the Biltmore.
I think I'll write a book and title it "Just being black"
