Phone call didn't lead to proper follow-up care
I have been experiencing pain for the past week related to a nerve issue affecting my chest and back. I spent six hours at the hospital yesterday. The doctor called me today to discuss pain management options and blood pressure medication. However, I felt that the pain relief offered was insufficient, particularly given that the hospital had recommended I obtain pain relief through my GP. This morning, I needed assistance from my neighbour to get up off the floor, and I expressed my frustration to the doctor about not receiving adequate pain relief. During that call this morning, I mentioned that I no longer wanted to continue in this situation. The call ended at around 10 o'clock, and several hours have passed without any follow-up contact to check on my wellbeing. The only reason I am still here is because a friend has been keeping me company and providing support.
The reception team seemed to project an air of authority.

Accessing GP services has become increasingly challenging. The practice tends to redirect patients either to pharmacy services or to alternative medical facilities located at considerable distances.
