Upsetting appointment left mum distressed and worried

Deeply disappointing experience, my mother was visibly upset leaving her appointment. She felt the clinician was dismissive from the outset, expressing frustration about her arrival despite her checking the waiting area display for her name to be called. She felt spoken down to and questioned why she had attended the surgery rather than seeking emergency care elsewhere, despite the situation not being urgent in nature. The nursing staff member was compassionate and offered reassurance to my mother. She has a follow-up appointment scheduled but is anxious about returning, so I have offered to accompany her while we explore the possibility of registering with an alternative practice. I transferred away from this surgery several years ago due to previous experiences where clinical staff appeared hurried and dismissive. This is regrettable.
