Long phone waits and broken prescription promises

I recently registered with this practice after being with my previous GP for many years. Following my registration, I requested that my prescription be sent to my long-standing local chemist and was assured this would be done electronically. However, my experience since then has been disappointing. When I contacted the practice on the day of my request, I found the receptionist unhelpful and was given a time of 11:30am for the prescription to arrive at my chemist. When I visited at 1:30pm, it had not arrived. I called the practice and waited over 20 minutes before speaking to someone, who then said it would be ready by 3:00pm pending the clinician's signature. At 3:00pm, the prescription still was not at my chemist. After another lengthy wait on the phone, I was told to collect it from the practice's own pharmacy instead. When I questioned this change of plan, as I had been promised it would be faxed to my preferred chemist, the receptionist became defensive. This has been a frustrating experience and has left me with serious concerns about the service provided by this practice.
