1) They should not be asking for my SSN over the phone.
2) Most medical offices do not open their waiting rooms now. They want you to sit in your car, call to tell them you're there, and wait for them to call you in. It's to avoid contact with other patients. This is how my optometrist is doing it and how my old dentist office did it.
3) This was not at the time of making the appointment. I had an appointment for coming Monday. They were calling to confirm my appointment, I guess, but started with the SSN request.
I live in TN where mask wearing is mandated in some counties but largely ignored anyway. Cases are growing very fast in my county.
I appreciate your take on it, but I will not give this place another try when they are doing nothing to keep from spreading this horrible disease.
