Impossible to reach the practice by phone

I attempted to respond to a message from the practice requesting contact, but found it extremely difficult to reach them. I made multiple calls at various times during the day, yet the line either went unanswered or disconnected automatically. This appears to be an ongoing problem rather than an isolated incident—attempting to call in the morning to arrange an appointment proved equally unsuccessful. By early afternoon, I still had not been able to connect with anyone. If the practice expects patients to respond to their requests promptly, they should ensure they are reachable. The situation has become quite frustrating and feels unacceptable. How is one supposed to make contact? I am grateful for the clarification provided regarding staffing constraints and the previous issue with callbacks. That said, I would like to emphasise that my frustration was not about expecting immediate answers during peak morning hours. Rather, my concern centred on the inability to reach the practice despite trying multiple times throughout the day, including afternoon hours, when calls consistently went unanswered or were cut off automatically. Being asked to get in touch with the practice and subsequently being unable to do so understandably creates frustration. Patients are not seeking preferential treatment—simply reasonable access to the service, particularly when the practice has initiated contact. I trust that future efforts will prioritise improving accessibility rather than reconsidering what patients reasonably require. Best regards
