"Unsupportive practice"

Fell in my garden, and cut my right arm, contacted the surgery and asked if I could see a nurse as the wound needed a dressing.Was told this was not possible and advised to go to pharmacy or A&E.I informed the surgery that it would probably only require butterfly stitches and I was not prepared to sit in A&E for up.to 7 hours as they needed to deal with more urgent cases.I really feel this practice needs reviewing as they are not providing an adequate service .
