Doctor repeatedly missed scheduled callback appointments

I attempted to arrange a doctor appointment over three consecutive days to discuss a respiratory infection that had persisted for more than a week. On each occasion, I was informed the clinician would contact me to proceed with the appointment, but this did not happen. I was given explanations that the clinician had forgotten or was occupied with other matters. Having missed appointments on three separate days was frustrating, and I felt this level of service was unacceptable, particularly given the potential seriousness of ongoing health concerns. When I called again, I was advised that the earliest available appointment would be the following week, or alternatively I could attend hospital. However, I felt reluctant to pursue hospital care as I believed the matter should have been addressed sooner through the practice, and I was concerned about adding to existing pressures on emergency services. Overall, I was disappointed with the experience and the approach taken.
