Nurse dismissed concerns without basic checks

Attended an appointment with a nurse practitioner after the GP surgery had no further availability, seeking help for persistent headaches that had lasted nearly two weeks. The practitioner's manner was unhelpful, dismissive and made me feel unwelcome. Blood pressure was checked and reported as normal, but no other assessments were carried out despite me experiencing multiple symptoms. The only recommendation offered was a stronger painkiller. As someone who works within the NHS, I was disappointed that even routine checks were not performed. I left the appointment feeling let down and still unwell. This represents the poorest experience I have encountered within the NHS. It appeared the practitioner may have lost enthusiasm for their role.
