Receptionist (Episode 9633)

The Receptionist worked for Oncologist Mr Merchant at Weatherfield General. In December 2018 Sinead Tinker, suffering from breast cancer, urgently needed to speak to her boss after she discovered that a path she had been trying of alternative medicine was a disastrous dead-end when a fellow practitioner, Steff Mulvenney, suddenly deteriorated and died within days.

Sinead anxiously waited to see Mr Merchant and when she pushed the receptionist to gain admittance to his consulting room she was told with sincere apologies that although she had managed to get a message to him but he was extremely busy and although he knew the matter was urgent, she would just have to wait.
