Quick referrals let down by delayed stockings order

I attended my local practice on a Thursday and the clinician I saw was very thorough and helpful. They arranged some blood tests for the following Thursday and also organised x-rays for both my hands relating to my condition. I subsequently received a call from the hospital and was scheduled for an x-ray on the Sunday. I was impressed by how promptly my concerns were being addressed. Regarding an update on a prescription for compression stockings, I had been waiting to collect these since September. A member of the nursing staff said they would order them and send me a text message when they arrived so I could pick them up at reception. I did not receive any communication, so I visited the practice and was told the items were not available. I have made multiple visits to the practice over this period. It transpired that the stockings were actually in the nurses' room but I have been unable to obtain them. I am disappointed with this situation as it has been quite frustrating. Additionally, since the practice changed their online appointment booking system, I have attempted to book an appointment with a doctor on numerous occasions without success. This has also been a disappointing experience.
