Impossible to reach GP despite urgent health needs

I have been managing ongoing respiratory health concerns that require regular medication. Since the pandemic began, I have experienced difficulty securing appointments with my GP, so I have been relying on my hospital consultant for care. Following a recent significant cardiac event and subsequent hospital discharge, I received documentation outlining the need for continued daily medication. When I visited the surgery in person to obtain a sick note, I also asked about arranging a follow-up appointment with my GP to discuss my recovery and current health status. I was advised to telephone the practice each morning at 8am to attempt to book an appointment. On each occasion I have called, I have found myself waiting in a queue with many other callers, which has caused me considerable anxiety, particularly as I am using a mobile phone with limited credit. Despite these repeated attempts over several weeks, I have been unable to secure an appointment. I feel frustrated with the current situation and would welcome the opportunity to receive care elsewhere.
