Appointment booked then cancelled without any notice

I wish there was an option for no stars! Absolutely dreadful practice. There is minimal patient care, I really don't know how this can be classified as a GP practice as there are rarely any doctors available to see, only ever nursing staff if you are fortunate enough!!! Earlier in the year two medical professionals failed to recognise I had a urinary tract infection, insisting I had a viral illness. My temperature was significantly elevated!!! I felt dismissed and as though I was inconveniencing them. To summarise, I ended up requiring a 3 day hospital admission with a serious infection complication that I believe resulted from their oversight!!!! Most recently I called to arrange an appointment and was told a clinical practitioner would contact me back. As promised, I did receive a call and was offered an appointment for the next day. It seemed too good to be true, and upon arriving at the surgery to check in, I was informed I did not have an appointment on their system. When I asked who the appointment was supposed to be with, I was told the staff member had gone home unwell and apparently neglected to confirm my booking, which is why there was no record. No apology was offered and no alternative appointment was suggested! Needless to say I have now switched to a different practice. I really don't understand how this establishment operates!!!
