Reception staff unhelpful when following up medication changes

My partner struggles with significant anxiety and depression, and when it came time to adjust her medication, we were informed that the practice would contact us within a week for a follow-up. That week passed without any communication. When we called to check on the status, we were told to wait until the 31st, which fell on a Sunday. This seemed illogical, so we assumed the call would come on the following Monday instead. Monday arrived with no contact. Upon calling again, we were met with a dismissive response from reception staff who appeared frustrated that we had called, suggesting we should simply wait for the doctor to ring. However, if the doctor had called as originally promised, this situation would not have arisen. When we asked if it was possible to arrange a callback on a different day, we were informed that reception could not facilitate this. It raises questions about the purpose of the reception team if they cannot assist with basic scheduling requests. The overall experience felt impersonal and unhelpful. I have not encountered a more ineffective reception service, and it felt as though their responses were robotic and lacking in genuine care or support. I would strongly encourage anyone seeking proper medical assistance to consider registering elsewhere, as this practice does not appear to provide the level of help and attention that patients deserve.
