"Dissapointed"

About: Newham General Hospital / Gynaecology

I am currently 5 weeks pregnant I attended Egas and was seen by a gynecologist who was incredibly rude and unfriendly, I wish I could post their name on here!

I had been coming in a few times due to the doctors not being able to find the baby in the womb, Unfortunately I will be having a termination which was a very difficult decision that I had to make due to personal reasons, and I must clarify that conception was of 100% use of a condom that failed!

I was very nervous, stressed out and already depressed about this decision but the gynecologist was not impressed, they did not greet me, they spoke to me like I was not human, they did not reassure me or talk to me through the internal scan. They asked if I wanted to see the image on the screen, I said no, when they were finished they purposely put the ultrasound scan in front of me on the table. when we finished I said goodbye and their response was Ok in such a cold manner.

I felt they judged me because of my decision for a termination they really left me in the lowest mood that I had already been in all week. Thanks very much for you cold spirit !
