Reception staff kept cutting me off mid-call

I was a patient at this practice until recently and have noticed a significant decline in service quality since the pandemic began. The reception team's conduct has been disappointing, with interactions feeling dismissive and unhelpful. During phone calls, I have felt unheard and unable to express my concerns fully. The practice appears to have moved away from offering in-person consultations. In June, I submitted an online consultation describing two episodes of a serious medical event, with the first requiring emergency hospital care. I was subsequently invited to attend a face-to-face appointment. After such a lengthy period without in-person visits, I found the experience underwhelming. It seems the practice prioritises telephone-based consultations for most patients, reserving physical appointments only for those experiencing acute emergencies such as suspected stroke or heart attack symptoms.
