Duty of care?

My father is in a local care home in and has been quite poorly recently. I happened to visit him at the same time as the doctor when he was suffering from a suspected UTI. The doctor did all his checks and then said there was nothing else he could do and walked out. My father clearly needed help and the care home staff were quite dumbfounded by the doctors actions. Shortly afterwards they decided to call the paramedics and my father was admitted to the N&N for 3 days! Admitting patients is not something the hospital do lightly and in light of this I feel this particular doctor failed in their duty of care towards my father. I feel this particular experience was 'terrible' but I've given the practice 'poor' overall as the surgery itself is a pleasure to deal with in comparison to other practices. They are very slick, efficient and the staff are excellent. My dissatisfaction is purely with the particular doctor on this occasion.
