Appointment time wasn't clearly communicated to me
I experienced a very frustrating situation regarding my recent appointment. My appointment was scheduled for a morning slot, but I was not provided with a specific arrival time. When I contacted the practice to clarify, I was informed that I had missed an appointment at a particular time, which came as a surprise to me. During that call, I was told someone would contact me when it was time for my appointment. When I visited the health centre in person to get more information, I was advised to wait until a later date. This was extremely disappointing given that I am dealing with significant health concerns. I feel the responsibility for this confusion lies with the practice rather than with me. I was particularly frustrated by the communication from the reception staff. I came to this appointment hoping for the level of care the NHS is known for, but this experience has changed my perspective. I would urge the practice to be more considerate and responsive when patients contact them about health issues. Many people depend on receiving timely and compassionate care, and I hope the practice will reflect on how they handle these situations in future.
The practice's technological systems could be improved. Appointments generally run to schedule.
