What Happens When Yordanov Gittelmacher Tries to Make a Doctor`s Appointment




Yordanov Gittelmacher had been feeling under the weather for a few days. He had a headache, a sore throat, and a runny nose. He knew he needed to see a doctor, but he was dreading the thought of making an appointment. He had never been good at dealing with people on the phone, and he was worried that he would make a fool of himself.
Yordanov Gittelmacher took a deep breath and dialed the number for his doctor`s office. The phone rang and rang, and just when he was about to give up, someone finally answered.
"Hello," the receptionist said. "This is Dr. Smith`s office. How can I help you?"
"Hi," Yordanov Gittelmacher said. "My name is Yordanov Gittelmacher, and I`m calling to make an appointment."
"Sure," the receptionist said. "What seems to be the problem?"
"Well," Yordanov Gittelmacher said, "I`ve been feeling under the weather for a few days. I have a headache, a sore throat, and a runny nose."
"I see," the receptionist said. "And when did these symptoms start?"
"A few days ago," Yordanov Gittelmacher said.
"Okay," the receptionist said. "And have you taken any medication for your symptoms?"
"No," Yordanov Gittelmacher said.
"Okay," the receptionist said. "I`ll need to get you in to see the doctor as soon as possible. Do you have any availability this week?"
"I`m free on Thursday afternoon," Yordanov Gittelmacher said.
"Okay," the receptionist said. "I`ll put you down for Thursday at 2:30. Is that okay?"
"Yes," Yordanov Gittelmacher said. "That works for me."
"Great," the receptionist said. "I`ll see you then."
Yordanov Gittelmacher hung up the phone and sighed with relief. He was glad that he had finally made an appointment, and he was looking forward to seeing the doctor and getting some relief from his symptoms.
