Phone queue kept dropping calls this morning

I attempted to contact the practice on multiple occasions this morning starting from 8 o'clock. Each time I managed to get through and wait in the queue, only to be disconnected before reaching an available appointment slot. I was subsequently informed that all morning appointments were already fully booked. It seems unusual that the entire local area would be unwell simultaneously, with everyone apparently attending the same medical centre. Given that there are multiple clinical staff members available, it appears surprising that appointments fill up so rapidly within such a short timeframe. I have been a patient here for 18 years, and I must say the service has deteriorated significantly. The current situation does not appear to be solely attributable to recent circumstances. Additionally, I found the interaction with reception staff to be unhelpful. I am extremely frustrated by this experience, and the stress of being unable to access care has left me feeling quite distressed.
