Receptionist dismissed serious health concern without proper review

I experienced poor patient care at this medical centre. I contacted the practice regarding a serious health concern but missed the initial call as I was unwell. When I called back, the receptionist indicated I would receive a callback after speaking with a clinician. However, I was subsequently called back by the same receptionist who corrected herself, explaining that because I had missed the first call, the matter had been marked as resolved and I was advised to proceed without further assistance. I found this approach to be unsatisfactory. I also received what I felt was inadequate treatment during interactions with staff in a particular department. When I raised concerns about physical discomfort and mentioned I was taking medication for mental health, the staff member responded in a manner I found dismissive and unhelpful. I was told I could pursue a complaint if I wished. Additionally, my appointment was postponed by a month, which was the reason I had called in the first place. During the phone call, I felt interrupted repeatedly and had to ask to be allowed to complete my thoughts before the staff member continued speaking. This pattern of interruption persisted throughout our conversation. I believe the service provided to patients with mental health considerations fell short of acceptable standards, and I am disappointed by the overall experience.
