Reception staff unprofessional and took personal calls

This practice has significant issues with reception staff professionalism. During a recent visit, I witnessed a receptionist handling a phone call in an inappropriately loud manner, discussing patient information in a way that lacked discretion. The call was then ended abruptly and noticeably. The same member of staff subsequently took a personal call at the front desk, which seemed to prioritise personal matters over work duties. This makes it frustrating when trying to reach the practice to book appointments, as lines appear frequently engaged. I attended with my unwell infant and experienced a considerable wait beyond my scheduled appointment time. The clinical staff themselves are generally courteous and competent, but the difficulty in securing appointments in the first place undermines the overall experience at this surgery.
