Terrible service from rude and unhelpful receptionists

Utterly appalling, I'm not someone who typically seeks medical attention, and my past experiences with the doctors have been pleasant. However, I've been repeatedly attempting to schedule an appointment, and the receptionists are absolutely terrible - incredibly discourteous and completely unhelpful. They refuse to listen or even consider booking me an appointment! They claim all slots are exclusively reserved for specific categories of patients. I even contacted 111, who confirmed I needed an urgent appointment within the hour and referred me back to the practice. When I relayed this information to the receptionist, she was shockingly rude and dismissive, bluntly stating, "I don't know how else to explain this: we're only booking appointments for children with strep A or palliative care patients"! Upon consulting 111 again, they confirmed that the practice was wrong - after a referral, I should have been seen within the hour!!!! Absolutely unacceptable!
