My wife has one specific guy doing the measurement that she hates and when he measures her pressure it's like 10-20 higher.

It's also the guy that measures pressure before letting people enter to the cryo chamber, so she spend about a week rescheduling and arguing with him to let her in.

When she went to another person at the hospital her pressure was perfectly fine, and switching the instruments didn't helped - if THE guy measured it - it was too high - when it was somebody else - it was OK, no matter the instrument used :)

Definitely possible. Blood pressure fluctuates during the day. Activation of the sympathetic nervous system causes the BP to increase. So technically the measurements were "correct", but it was misleading because when talking about BP we normally mean "resting BP".
