Reception staff were dismissive when booking appointment

I called the practice today and wanted to schedule an appointment with my usual doctor, but was informed they were unavailable. I was told that other practitioners had appointments available, though before I could make a decision, I was advised that seeing someone else would be quicker due to waiting times. The staff member's manner came across as dismissive and somewhat irritable. It would be beneficial if receptionists could approach patients with greater warmth and patience, as people who contact the practice are typically unwell and deserve a compassionate response. The healthcare system would benefit from ensuring all staff interactions are conducted with kindness and professionalism.
