Phone consultation left me feeling unheard and dismissed

I have never written a review before, but this situation felt serious enough to warrant my first one, and I'm giving this medical centre a 1-star rating. A staff member became visibly emotional during our phone conversation as I was describing what I was experiencing. I mentioned that I had taken time away from work to emphasise how unwell I was — and was immediately interrupted with a comment about sick notes, something I hadn't requested. Given that I was dealing with a severe headache and feeling quite unwell, I found it jarring to then be told "don't be rude, I am trying to help you" after I responded to that remark. I was advised to avoid certain foods and drink more water — guidance I was already aware of. There was no sense of courtesy, professionalism, or compassion throughout the interaction. When I asked for the staff member's name for my records, the response was "If you want to complain about me that's fine, but I've been working here for 20 years," delivered with an unnecessary tone. I simply wanted a name for reference purposes. After I clarified this, I was eventually given what appeared to be an unclear or questionable name, which only reinforced my concerns about the standard of service. This establishment may present itself as a medical centre, but my experience felt like an exercise in frustration and poor practice.
