Phone lines impossible to reach in urgent situations

I've been attempting to reach the practice since early morning as my family member has been unwell for several days, and emergency services advised that urgent assessment was needed. After waiting over two hours without success, I'm extremely frustrated. Having been a patient here for more than a decade, I find the overall standard of care deeply concerning compared to other providers in the area. On a previous occasion, I was informed that test results were satisfactory, but when I requested documentation and sought a second opinion elsewhere, the findings were significantly different. The reception staff are adequate, though not exceptional. Throughout my years as a patient, I have not encountered practitioners I felt confident in. I believe the serious health complications my family member now faces could have been prevented with more thorough initial assessment and appropriate guidance. I'm aware the practice is familiar with my family's situation, but these concerns needed to be raised. I would urge that the practice be subject to proper review and evaluation. Financial constraints should not be an excuse for failing to provide compassionate care or to appropriately signpost patients to alternative services when necessary.
