Reception dismissive when correcting medication error

Following a hospital stay earlier this year, I experienced ongoing health concerns after returning home. When I contacted the practice for guidance, I was advised that my symptoms were nothing to worry about. However, I felt uncertain about this assessment and decided to seek further medical evaluation at the hospital. There, I discovered my symptoms were indeed serious, and I was additionally informed of a significant health condition that I had not been made aware of previously, despite records indicating knowledge of this since some years ago. This experience has led me to no longer use this practice, and I believe that seeking independent medical advice when I did may have been important for my health outcomes. Additionally, my daughter was provided with incorrect medication. When she attempted to contact the practice to address this error, she felt the response from staff was dismissive of her concerns, despite her having substantial knowledge of her own long-standing respiratory condition. She was unable to secure a prompt appointment to resolve the medication issue and has had to purchase the correct medication at her own expense. Given that this error originated from the practice, I believe the costs incurred should not fall to her, and I would hope the practice will take responsibility for rectifying this situation and addressing the financial impact on my family.
