Reception staff were dismissive about my lateness

I had a very disappointing experience at my appointment today. I arrived a bit late and apologised for this, but felt that the same point was repeatedly brought up in a way that made me feel disbelieved. The receptionist's comment that I should be grateful to still be seen felt unprofessional and overstepped boundaries. I was upset that the clinician, after agreeing to see me, made remarks to other patients while I was holding my baby, which felt unkind. I found the overall conduct of the staff to be disrespectful and felt the team could benefit from improved customer service training. I was also given a letter on departure that I felt misrepresented the reasons for my lateness. The receptionists involved were unhelpful and dismissive throughout my visit. If the clinician had concerns about seeing me, I would have preferred this to be communicated directly rather than through indirect comments. I believe the practice would benefit from reviewing how staff interact with patients and ensuring a more respectful approach to patient care.
