- Hello, I need to see Dr. Philippe as soon as possible, please. - Very good! Could you describe your symptoms to me? - Yes, I am suffering from an intense toothache which has been bothering me for about a week. I can neither sleep nor eat! - Let's see what I can do to help you. One of our patients was supposed to come today at 3pm, but he's just contacted us to cancel his appointment. Would you like to take this slot? - Yes, that would be perfect ! What a relief! - Can I have your name please? - Of course, Marc Dubois. Thanks again and see you later!
