Best private GP service for elderly relative?

My mother in her late 70s is getting increasingly irate with her Gp. I've told her to change, but she recently moved practice and is still struggling.

I suspect some underlying difficulties which makes it really hard for her to communicate effectively/cope with admin like online booking etc.

Frankly I'm fed up of dealing with 73 phone calls when she has a sore throat because she can't get a doctors appointment.

Can anyone recommend a good virtual service or is she better getting a private doctors in a big town? She can use phone/internet but she makes things much harder than they need to be.

I’d look locally and go for the best option — we have a couple of local GPs who have set up privately and they are very good.
