Feel like I'm being held at bay by locums

I have managed to get an appointment with a doctor today but it can be very difficult. Seeing the locums can feel like you are being held at bay as they say come back in 2 weeks. I feel that there is no follow up care once I've been seen by the hospital, letters go on my file but no action follows. At times reception staff could be a bit less abrupt.
