Yes it must be annoying but this GP evidently had a habit of 'snapping' and the child was at high risk and being seen for an emergency appointment not something routine. She was free and available when they arrived and could have seen them. Not sure how much else they could reasonably have done except call an ambulance or go to A&E sooner than they eventually did.
