Reception staff dismissive during difficult phone call

I felt frustrated with my recent phone interaction at the practice. The receptionist interrupted me multiple times during the call and spoke to me in a manner I found discourteous. When I mentioned concerns about a family member's wellbeing and referenced the practice's safeguarding responsibilities, the receptionist's response felt dismissive and inappropriate. I was also disappointed that when I disclosed my neurodivergence, it wasn't received with understanding, and the receptionist subsequently contacted my family member to verify what I had said. Following my comments about duty of care, the receptionist made another call to check on my family member. Overall, I felt my concerns were not handled with the sensitivity and professionalism I would have expected. I believe it's important for staff to recognise that callers may be dealing with difficult personal circumstances, and interactions should reflect appropriate compassion and respect.
