Phone queue system caused frustration and rudeness

I would rate this practice very poorly. When I called to arrange an appointment for my young child, I encountered significant difficulties with the booking process. After initially reaching the practice at mid-morning, I was directed to an automated system and placed in a queue. The queue position appeared to reset unexpectedly, which was confusing. When I eventually spoke with reception staff at around mid-morning, I was informed that no morning slots were available and was asked to call back later. The manner in which the call was ended felt abrupt and dismissive. I felt the interaction lacked courtesy and professionalism. I believe the practice would benefit from reviewing how telephone calls are handled and ensuring that patients receive more considerate communication, particularly when their requests cannot be accommodated. People do not contact their GP without genuine need, and it is important that staff interactions reflect understanding of this.
