    The front office staff did not even acknowledge me as I was standing and waiting to check in. I know they have other responsibilities other than check in, but a simple or quick acknowledgement of me would have been nice. She was on the phone and clearly on hol d; not even talking to anyone. I was standing in front of her and she refused to even glance up at me. I finally just went and sat down after a few minutes. Again, I understand they are busy, but a simple “I'll be right with you” would have been the right thing to do. I have no problem waiting would never complain about a long wait time. I have worked in a doctor office for more than a decade. I understand how hectic it can be. I still think that common courtesy should be given though.
