Impossible phone lines, but considerate clinical staff

It would be easier to reach a phone number that doesn't exist than to get through on a morning—you need to call at least 25 times before someone answers. The NHS app works much better; submitting an electronic consultation for a callback from a clinician typically results in a response within a day. The medical staff are genuinely wonderful and compassionate. However, during a recent visit, I witnessed a situation where a parent arrived a few minutes late with several children, and I overheard a staff member asking another clinician whether they still wanted to see the patients given the delay. I found this approach quite troubling, as it seemed like individual circumstances weren't being taken into account. While I understand the importance of maintaining appointment schedules, the tone of the exchange gave me pause about the service. That said, the clinician did confirm they were happy to proceed with the appointment, which suggests they were willing to see the patients regardless.
