Yes you're right they were wrong. I suppose it was just my first reaction to get embarrassed.

When a doctor performs surgery, he does his best because he is a professional. His relationship with a patient or a patient's parent doesn't come into it. If he has weirdness or bad vibes because you inform him his staff called the police, he has a problem, not you.

I am willing to bet, someone on the staff didn't want to listen to your long message. Calling the police was easier.

You don't need to be embarrassed. You just need to find out what exactly happened.

Now that I think about it you are right. I should figure this all out first, reset the relationship and then roll into the surgery stages.

I would want to hear the message - maybe it's a sign something is up with you.

I wonder if the office kept the message and could let you listen to it.

Most voicemail ends up as attachments sent to email these days, probably wont be no sweat to find it, especially if it resulted in a call to the police.

(1) If the police officer listened to the message and didn't hear any problem, why did the staff call?

(2) Why didn't the staff call her directly?

I have my doubts about this whole issue, but I don’t know ANY receptionist who thinks calling the police is easier than listening to a voice mail.
