Useless medical advice leads to unnecessary hospital trip

What purpose does a general practitioner serve? Our toddler was suffering from diarrhoea, and their recommendation was to rush to the emergency department. We then endured 4 hours in an incredibly congested waiting area, only to be informed that the child should never have been sent to A&E in the first place, and that she should have been examined by the GP. The exhausted emergency room physician was frustrated by the subpar guidance we received, which ultimately occupied hospital resources meant for patients with genuine medical emergencies. I'm also concerned about the potential risk of contracting COVID while sitting in that crowded waiting room. Appreciate the complete waste of our time and the total lack of meaningful assistance.
