GP appointment problem - part 1

I'm a carer for my 33-year-old son who has autism, anxiety and a severe stammer. He gets on well with his GP but you can't get an appointment to see her! Recently he told me he had blood discharging from his bowel. The receptionists* would not give me even an advance appointment, they also told me to ring at 8.30am on the Thursday. When I rang them they told me they'd given the appointment to someone else.
