Surgery refused to handle urgent wound care needs

Sustained a dog bite and required a tetanus booster, having not received one for over two decades. Contacted the practice to arrange this, and was informed that whilst tetanus vaccines were available on-site for travel purposes, the practice was unable to provide the vaccination. I was directed to the hospital instead, where I experienced a lengthy wait of approximately an hour and a half before receiving the tetanus vaccination and a course of antibiotics. During my hospital visit, I was told that a significant proportion of patients arriving via GP referrals originate from the same two local practices. This experience felt frustrating and inefficient. It appeared that rather than utilising available resources at the practice level, patients were being redirected to hospital services.
