Unhelpful staff when my baby's sick

I rarely take the time to write reviews, especially understanding the current challenges faced by the NHS. However, I'm thoroughly appalled by the treatment I've received. Today, I attempted to seek medical attention for my one-year-old daughter who is unwell. When trying to explain her symptoms to the receptionist, I was repeatedly interrupted and dismissed, with the staff member seemingly uninterested in hearing me out and making assumptions about my previous call attempts. Every time I try to contact the office, the phone line disconnects before even ringing. At 3 pm, I was callously told to simply send a picture of my sick child. Furthermore, when I requested an appointment for myself, I was brushed off and instructed to call back tomorrow morning between 8 and 10 if I considered my issue urgent. The irony is that I wouldn't be persistently calling throughout the day if my concern wasn't genuinely pressing. The level of service is utterly unacceptable, and I will definitely be seeking a new GP practice.
