Report
Went to reception and told the girls there that I have a sharp pain in my left eye and I am have trouble seeing. Reception tells me all appointments are booked. She told me to book an appointment for tomorrow. I tried to explained to her I am an existing patient and I had this before. Reception kept telling me appointment is full. So I went to hospital emergency room instead.
