Terrible healthcare experience with unhelpful dr foster

I'm utterly dismayed by the substandard medical care, particularly from Dr. Foster. My initial visit felt like being processed on an assembly line, with zero effective assistance. I can get a hearing test at Boots for a reasonable cost, so why am I paying NHS fees for such inadequate service? I requested an ankle X-ray referral, but was flatly denied NHS coverage. Hearing issues: rejected. Ankle problem: dismissed. For my chronic fatigue, she ordered a blood test, which she deemed "fantastic" despite providing zero follow-up results. The lingering hand pain and week-long black bruise on my arm were completely ignored. Initially, I gave up. However, I later attempted another consultation regarding sleep apnea, which my partner confirmed. I experience frequent breathlessness during sleep, disrupting my rest and causing daytime exhaustion. I sought a sleep clinic referral, but Dr. Foster merely sent a website link for self-assessment, effectively leading nowhere. After completing their questionnaire, I was informed I didn't qualify for the NHS sleep clinic and was instructed to undergo additional blood tests for alternative evaluation - as if she were the specialist determining my care pathway. I can't help wondering if my Polish nationality and sexual orientation are influencing this treatment.
