"The worst practice"

I’m in the same boat as most of the other reviews here, wait forever in the queue to attempt to get an appointment just for the line to cut off or be told to call 111 or go to a&e. What’s worse is that when I try to make an appointment for my now 16month old daughter, they say the same thing, 111 or a&e. I had to call 111 who then sent an ambulance out to me for the crew to then have to call the doctors themselves (waited nearly 1hr even when they was able to skip queue waits due to being the ambulance) who then got a doctor to get my daughter an appointment booked for the next day. This isn’t a one off either, I’ve tried again for my daughter with another issue today and the exact same thing, 111 or a&e??? This is why the hospitals are filled with people who do not need to be there, it’s just the surgery keeps sending people there. My daughter is young and as the ambulance crew stated, kids should be a priority, not sent to sit in a&e for hours when unwell when a doctor should be able to fit them in to prevent this, or at least make an appointment for the next day instead of saying to call back at 8am for the same thing to be said again. It’s taken me almost 2 weeks to get an appointment for myself before, I needed a medication review and had ran out but wasn’t allowed it prescribed until a doctor had seen me, then my medicine was sent to wrong pharmacy and even now that’s still happening. I’d also like to point out the the dr iq app is also pointless, you cannot do anything on there other than request medicine and a couple of other things, it doesn’t even notify me anymore if my medicine has been accepted or sent to pharmacy, I have to call the pharmacy to ask
