Stupid dentist receptionist

Me: Hi, can I book an appointment with the dentist for tomorrow afternoon please?
Receptionist: Is it for a check up?
Me: No, I have an abcess in my mouth.
Receptionist: Oh, are you in pain?
Me: Yes, my face is throbbing and it's really sore!
Receptionist: Right, you're in pain but you can wait until tomorrow afternoon for an appointment?
Me: Well, if you have any appointments from 4:30pm today that would be great.
Receptionist: No we don't have any.
Me: Right, well can I have an appointment for tomorrow afternoon please?
