Measles misdiagnosis left my son suffering

I encountered an absolutely terrible ordeal at Baslow Road Surgery. Our family vacation was abruptly cut short when my son became seriously ill. Initially, we visited an A and E in Kent where they incorrectly diagnosed my son (which we discovered later). Upon returning home, his health dramatically worsened. When I urgently went to the surgery, the receptionist coldly informed me that my son couldn't enter because he was supposedly diagnosed with measles and might contaminate others. Desperate, I pleaded to have the doctor examine him in our parked car, ensuring I would remain outside. Shockingly, she merely said she would check if the doctor might call us. Devastated, I returned home, and my husband subsequently took our son to Sheffield A&E, who professionally treated him and revealed he never had measles in the first place - confirming the previous misdiagnosis. This experience was completely unacceptable, and I will absolutely never return to this surgery under any circumstances.
