Sick note requests ignored through new system

Since the introduction of the new appointment system, I have found the service quality to have declined significantly. I required a sick note by a specific deadline, but despite submitting two requests, it has not been provided. I recently experienced a finger injury and sourced information about appropriate support online before requesting a physiotherapy appointment. It took approximately a month to receive an appointment. During the session, the clinician spent a considerable amount of time discussing how I had found the support method rather than providing any practical intervention. I was advised that if the condition did not resolve within six weeks, I should attend the emergency department. I received no actual treatment during the appointment, which felt like a wasted opportunity. I am seriously considering changing my GP practice, and my spouse has already made this decision. It is somewhat ironic given that we both work within the NHS.
