Elaine. It is *not* your job to give medical advice over the telephone.
It was bellyache. That's not medical advice, it's common sense.
Can *I* please decide who comes to my surgery?
No.
If they have bellyache or diarrhoea, I have them wait. If they've got something serious I get them in straight away.
Thank you, I'm familiar with triage.
Right, so I want an apology. If is wasn't for me you'd have had a dozen diarrhoeas since yesterday.
How many?
