Fair but hard to get appointments

My surgery run the system of calling at 8 am on the day you need an appointment. You can book in advance but that doesn't help if you need to see some one that day. I call for for sometimes more than half an hour and when I finally get through I'm told that all appointments for morning surgery have gone and I need to call later to try to get an afternoon appointment.. They will not issue afternoon appointments when you call in the morning
