Phone sex line proves pest for dentist

A dental surgery has been inundated with phone calls – from a phone sex line.

Phones are ringing off the hook at the Florida dental practice – up to 500 a day – but it’s not from potential patients, it’s a recording of a phone sex line.

Dentist Dr Robert Thousand feels as if he’s under attack, www.news4jax.com reports.

‘It tied up all our phone lines. We’ll get 400 to 500 a day just to my office line.’

Dr Thousand and his staff say they are fed up.

The calls are not just an inconvenience, but with all of them tying up the office’s phone lines, patients can’t get through. And it’s apparently costing the dentist financially.
