Dismissive approach left my daughter undiagnosed

I have experienced several issues at this practice. I attended with my young child following a call to 111 when my child became unwell. The clinician I saw displayed a dismissive attitude and lacked understanding of my child's presentation. They made a comment suggesting that sleepiness alone was not indicative of illness, and conducted only a brief examination. They then stated they had detected something on auscultation of the chest and prescribed antibiotics for a respiratory infection. I expressed concern about this recommendation given that my child had recently received the same medication for a similar condition just two weeks earlier. The clinician responded by suggesting I had been insistent on antibiotics during the previous visit, which was not accurate. Following this appointment, my child required multiple hospital admissions due to deteriorating respiratory symptoms and overall condition. Hospital staff subsequently identified a different diagnosis and indicated that a respiratory infection may not have been the underlying issue. Additionally, the medication prescribed was not appropriate for the actual condition my child had. As a result, I have transferred my care elsewhere and do not intend to return to this practice.
