Saw the endo on Friday

I hated her.  She had a horrible bedside manner, completely dismissed everything my ob/gyn said, suggested that I have gastric bypass and then gave me scripts for things that "I'll probably need."  I also have this giant list of blood work that I'll need to have done this week.  I didn't get to ask her any of the questions that I had about TTC, partly because she kept interrupting me and partly because she had me so upset.  She may be a brilliant doctor (my PCP highly recommended her) but I can't leave a doctor's office in tears all the time, either.  (At least, not in tears over the way I was treated).  So now I get to have blood tests and won't know for at least a month whether I have PCOS or not.  (Which, by the way, you can apparently cure by losing weight.  Dr. McNasty said she had a patient cure herself by doing so.)  If I do have it, I am so getting a new endo, most likely an actual reproductive endo.  It's been two days and I'm still upset.  We haven't told anyone about it yet, so you ladies are the only ones I can tell.  (Well, my mom knows about the PCOS, but not about the TTC part).

    Unless you have some major endocronologist problems, I think its better for you to go to an RE.  This lady sounds like a pill anyway so anyone might be better than her!  Good luck!!

    Ditto the pp. Definitely find a new doc. Doesn't matter how highly recommended they are, if they're anasshole and you are that upset (rightfully so.)

    I'm sorry. :(

    Ugh, I agree with pp, it doesn't matter how recommended they are if they are biitches.

    :(

    Don't stay with a doctor that treats you like that.  Unfort, I find the majority of doctors are very dismissive and impatient.  Go to as many as you have to until you find the right one.  I am glad I didn't stick with my first one!

    Hey Kristen.......just wanted to say that I love Dr. Kubick at RHS in Penn Hills.  Everyone there is awesome.

    Good luck to you!
