Impossible to book appointments, receptionists unhelpful

Would give it no stars if I could as obtaining an appointment is extremely difficult. Following a visit to accident and emergency, I was advised that I required certain blood tests to be repeated as a matter of urgency within three days. When I contacted the practice, I managed to get through, which was surprising in itself, only to be told by reception staff that I did not require an appointment as I was well. My call was then transferred to a clinician who eventually agreed to book me in for blood tests, or so I believed. When I attended what I thought was my appointment, nine days after my initial visit, I was informed by reception staff that no appointment existed in the system. After explaining the situation and expressing my concern that I had been given incorrect information about the booking, I was told this was unlikely to have occurred. I was subsequently offered another appointment for several days later, which was now over a week since my original visit. It should be noted that this experience does not reflect all staff at the practice, as some are genuinely pleasant and supportive whilst others are less so. The quality of service appears to depend very much on which member of staff you encounter.
