Clinic, can I help you?
This is Frank Smith. Can I make an appointment with Dr. Milton?
Yes, of course, Mr. Smith. Can you manage this afternoon?
I am afraid not. I can manage tomorrow.
I am afraid Dr. Milton's not on duty tomorrow. He'll be here the day after tomorrow. That's Thursday, March 27th.
Fine.
Will 5:30 pm be all right?
Yes. But what time is the clinic closed?
We start at 5:00 am and close at 7:00 pm on weekdays. We don't work on the weekends.
I'd prefer a later time.
Then what about 6:15 pm?
Well, that's fine.
