Phone queue problems delayed urgent appointment access

I attempted to call early in the morning on a Friday to arrange an urgent appointment for a prescription, but experienced repeated call disconnections and was unable to access the phone queue. After persisting for approximately 2.5 hours, I eventually got through, only to be informed that no appointments were available until the following Monday. I proceeded with booking this slot as it seemed to be the only option available. When I arrived on Monday, I provided my details to a member of reception staff who directed me to the upstairs waiting area. I remained there for just over an hour before returning downstairs to enquire about the delay, which required queuing at the desk again. I was then informed that I had not been properly registered on the system, which meant my appointment had been cancelled by the clinical team. The clinician declined to see me, and the earliest alternative appointment offered was a week away, despite this being classified as an urgent matter. I feel significantly let down by the standard of care and service provided at this practice, which appears to have deteriorated considerably.
