Surgery left me frustrated after long wait

I have consistently held the practice in high regard, though my latest visit has been disappointing. I submitted an enquiry via the NHS app to avoid taking up an appointment slot unnecessarily. A clinician rang me the following day and, following our discussion, indicated they would like to see me in person. During that call, I felt somewhat perplexed when the clinician asked what I was hoping to get from the appointment. It seemed an odd question given that I'm not the medical professional. I attended the appointment as requested. The clinic was running late (understandably, these things happen) and after waiting over 45 minutes, I had to inform the reception staff that I needed to leave to return to work. I made it clear to them that I hoped this early departure wouldn't be held against me, as I had made the effort to attend and had done everything asked of me. I'm now concerned about having to arrange another appointment, which means further time commitment. My situation doesn't warrant going to A&E, but I do feel it requires fairly prompt attention.
