Its a shame that the doctor didnt help but its difficult for doctor to make that decision really as its his job on the line if he doesnt check everything properly before he goes to do something. Sad world.
Neither would the attending paramedics but they like the doctor would look around the flat for evidence of medication.

A fully qualified doctor couldn’t do more than basic first aid? Now where did you get that from? In any case basic first is better than nothing and could be the difference between life and death.

In my view the doctor was wrong not to try and help.
