I think Hemi was likely right to go to urgent care given the situation, but it does highlight a common issue these days were people don't tackle things are early as they should and then you end up in a situation that needs to be handled today, but it's not truly "urgent" compared to others that come to urgent care.
That gave me a laugh. In the waiting area there was a girl with her mother, overhearing their conversation she fell at school and gashed her chin open and needed stiches, they were there for over 2 hours. There was also another girl in a wheelchair favoring a leg that I assume was broken, she was there for over an hour before I saw her get called

To be clear I don't put any blame on the doctors, nurses, or support personnel. My blame is squarely on the UCP doing everything in their power to gut our healthcare services
