Mine is usually fine but this time she wanted to say "I've spoken to Dr H and he says [she spills] because [spills more]" without giving me a chance to say "oh, does that mean..." - it was more of a telling than a conversation, which is unusual for her.
Never mind, it was useful in the end.
Whereas yours wasn't so good - I guess you need a technique for dealing with that next time. So instead of them saying what they have to offer and then getting you out the door, you need to jump in and say "I hope you don't mind but I brought a list of questions..." - could that work?
