Reception staff dismissive when asking simple questions

I had a very disappointing experience during my visit. From the moment I arrived for my appointment, I felt unwelcome and undervalued. The clinician appeared disengaged and gave the impression of reluctance to be present. I explained my concern regarding a physical issue that has been troubling me for an extended period. Rather than having a thorough discussion about possible treatment options or receiving empathetic support, I was simply told the matter was "not important" to address, despite explaining that it was affecting my self-confidence and that I wished to pursue treatment. When it came to scheduling a follow-up appointment, I clearly communicated that I was only available on certain days of the week. Rather than attempting to find a solution, I was informed that procedures were only available on other specific days, delivered in what felt like a dismissive and flippant manner. The level of professionalism was notably absent. I also inquired about a seasonal allergy treatment option, and the response was curt and unhelpful. Additionally, the reception team were notably discourteous. I asked a straightforward question and received a dismissive response, despite staff visibly being available. The overall environment felt cold, unhelpful, and lacking in professional standards. This was genuinely one of the poorest experiences I have encountered at a medical practice. Patients attend seeking assistance and reassurance, not to feel overlooked or treated dismissively. I would not recommend this practice based on my visit.
