Records not updated and dismissive phone response

Following a phone consultation with a member of the clinical team, I became aware that my medical records contained outdated information. I contacted the practice the next day to discuss having these records corrected. During this conversation, I was informed that other healthcare facilities and departments located within the same building do not exchange information due to operating separate systems. I expressed surprise at this, as I had believed medical records were routinely shared between services for patient benefit. After voicing this concern, I felt that my subsequent attempts to communicate were poorly received. Although I tried to clarify that I was not blaming the staff member personally, I found the interaction to be dismissive in tone. The person I was speaking with appeared unable to understand my reaction and responded in a manner that felt defensive, using a curt phrase that I found disrespectful given my background. Additionally, when I offered a date relating to a procedure from my own records, this information was declined, with the staff member indicating they would need to contact the relevant department themselves to confirm what I had stated. I left the conversation feeling shocked and struggling to process what had occurred.
