Outrageous incompetence

I called the surgery after my mother was diagnosed with DVT, around 2pm. I then kept chasing said request and as footfall (their website was closed) many receptionists assured me that they put through an urgent request to the doctor as mum needed to URGENTLY be advised whether to continue a medication or not. I chased this repeatedly and after chasing the last time at 1755 the receptionist claimed to sent a message to the doctor re this. The doctor replied and said she had spoken to the patient. (I was not with her unfortunately so did not know the outcome until the call was terminated and I called her) mum told me she forgot to ask about the medication and the doctor didn't even mention it (mum is forgetful) despite me specifying many times that the request was regarding the medication. I was unable to call the surgery back as the lines go off at 1800. Now mum is unsure on whether to take this important medication alongside the new ones for the DVT. This is disgusting as I had been chasing this all afternoon and now she is at risk of either taking a medication which could be harmful or missing an important dose of important medication. I am beyond disappointed and upset.
