Frustrating gp appointment system wastes my time

I secured a phone consultation, but it requires me sacrificing half a working day for a mere 10-minute conversation with my doctor. The GP could ring anytime between 9am and 1pm, yet I'm unable to answer while serving customers at the supermarket checkout. One would assume they could refine the appointment window to at least within an hour. It's not complicated - just plain laziness, and we must highlight these issues or consider changing practices. Clearly, they understand most patients will remain silent, so they show no concern. GP practices are arguably the most subpar in customer service. I attribute this to poor leadership. How can they expect patients to be tethered to their phones all day awaiting a callback? Certainly alternative appointment management methods exist. Recently, I surrendered and spent £50 on a private GP consultation. The hassle and stress of obtaining a GP appointment have become unbearable. It seems the entire practice is solely motivated by financial gain, with zero consideration for patient experience.
