Frustrated by dismissive staff and dropped call
I contacted the practice and spoke with a member of staff who offered a callback on a future date. When I expressed a preference for an in-person appointment instead, I felt the response was dismissive and I was placed on hold. I was then advised that a different clinician could call me back instead. Later that day, after not receiving the expected call, I rang back and spoke with reception staff who confirmed I was on the callback list. When a clinician did eventually call in the late afternoon, the call was disconnected shortly after it began while I was finishing a work conversation. Although I had indicated I was available to speak, the call was not reconnected. I found this experience frustrating and felt the overall service fell short of the standard I would have expected from this practice. I have been a patient here for many years and felt disappointed by how this situation was handled.
