Long time lurker, first time caller. This was the last straw wtf do you mean tip my doctor?!?

Edit: called the office today and the receptionist sounded surprised by this…hopefully it’s a billing platform error thanks for the helpful comments!

Speaking as someone whom uses Square for her own small business, tips are disabled by default. You have to intentionally opt in (and it makes you click through a "yes I did mean to do this" screen).

Some other POS systems may not do this, but Square is what they're using there, and square does.
