An older gentleman had an appointment to see the urologist who shared offices with several other doctors. The waiting room was filled with patients.
As he approached the Receptionist's desk, he noticed that she was a large, unfriendly-looking woman who looked like a Sumo wrestler. He gave her his name.
In a very loud voice, the Receptionist said,
"YES, I HAVE YOUR NAME HERE; YOU WANT TO SEE THE DOCTOR ABOUT IMPOTENCE, RIGHT?"
All the patients in the waiting room snapped their heads around to look at the very embarrassed man. He recovered quickly, and in an equally loud voice replied,
'NO, I'VE COME TO INQUIRE ABOUT A SEX CHANGE OPERATION, BUT I DON'T WANT THE SAME DOCTOR WHO DID YOURS.'
The waiting room erupted in applause.

Hi Jandan. I came across a pretty stupid receptionist at my local pharmacy about 12 months ago. She shouted across a crowded waiting room to me, and asked 'whats it for!!! ' reffering to the drugs on my prescription. I was kind of taken a-back by this as I thought patient confidentiality counted for something these day's, anyway I thought right you asked for it lady and shouted back MRSA!!. That seemed to get everyones attention as the hole room looked, including the many people working the other side of the counter. For some reason everybody gave me a pretty wide berth untill the drugs came and I left with a bit of a grin on my face.
Your's was more funny but mine was true as 'I was there'. Ha Ha
It's found you again! Hooray .... Nice to see you rejoined with humour, Jan
Absolutely loved it
