Puzzle 16: Doctor, Doctor Give me the news!

The ClubHouse: The Game II - Mysterious Puzzler: Discussions/Challenges: Official Puzzles: Puzzle 16: Doctor, Doctor Give me the news!
A woman has an appointment to visit the doctor. When she gets there the receptionist tells her that there is a new doctor and that he cannot see the woman just yet as he is on the telephone.

The woman waits and then the doctor calls her in and says that he is sorry he kept her waiting but he had some important telephone calls to handle. Within moments the doctor is highly embarrassed.

and should I mention that my daughters diss me because I give too much detail when I am having a conversation with them. I guess the joke is on them for once, or is it on me?
