Unfiltered Story #101634

I broke a tooth and it hurts while I’m outside with my friend. We go to a dentist we recently passed by. There are like 1-2 dentists per block in the area.

Friend: Hi, my friend broke a tooth about 10 minutes ago and it hurts bad. Can the dentist see her now?
Receptionist: Does she have an appointment?

They had no room and pointed us to another practice.

Friend: (The other dentist) suggested this place. Do you have room to take my friend? She broke her tooth about 15 minutes ago and it hurts.
Receptionist 2: Appointment?

They could take me but I’m dumbfounded they both asked about having an appointment!
