It wasn't a serious problem at all, which is why I think a nurse with a certain level of training should have been able to deal with it. Alas I had to wait for one of the 5 doctors there. And that part is what I hate, because I know those doctors need to help other more seriously 'injured' patients instead of wasting their time on me.

Fair enough. FYI walk in clinics will do stitches (not that this necessarily means much of a reduced wait). I do completely agree with things such as giving nurses the green light to administer stitches, or pharmacists to renew prescriptions where appropriate.
