OMFG! Update...

Juicy71 · February 2012

You will not f'ing believe this. So I decided to not go in for the blood test this morning as I didn't see the point. So the doctor's office called me and I told them I was declining the test. Then the doctor calls me back and asks me what's going on.

So, I honestly started kind of rambling saying that there was no point in taking the test because it wasn't going to be a different result and I didn't want to hear her tell me again that I wasn't pregnant because I don't believe that's true. I told her that I know my body and 10 pregnancy tests couldn't be wrong... that I felt like she was willing to accept this weird Bermuda triangle of pregnancy symptoms without pregnancy while not even giving my +HPTs a chance in hell of being right. Well, the line was really quiet and then I realized the reason she wasn't saying anything is because she hung up on me!!

Seriously? She f'ing hung up on me? You'd think, if nothing else, she'd actually maybe be concerned about my mental well-being more than anything else. I can't believe how unprofessional she is. Obviously I was upset but it wasn't like I was yelling at her... I just said I didn't agree with her.

I am blown away right now.

WOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!

Yeah...totally time to tell that Dr. to kiss your ass and not go back! Apparently she didn't like the fact that her patient was more educated then she was....bish.

you.

BankerBSN · February 2012

Dawn, that is terrible and unprofessional. I am so sorry that you are going through this.

mellieg8582 · February 2012

Wow! If that was me I'd get right on the phone and find a new dr. OMG! I'm pissed for you. Isn't it part of their job to make you feel confortable in your time of need. And to be on your side when you need them the most. The one thing that drives me crazy is when people don't do their job. GOD!

SchruteBucks · February 2012

Wow! That is unbelievable! I am so sorry that on top of the pain and sadness of a miscarriage that you have this pathetic excuse for a doctor to deal with.

Kdbean27 · February 2012

I'm so sorry, Dawn!! ((((Hugs))))

kristykay123 · February 2012

Wtf is wrong with them! I'm so sorry she did that to you. I'd def find a different place to go.

ALL of this!

I wanna punch that "doctor" in the face right now...

nbalkin · February 2012

I am so sorry your dr was so rude to you. she should have at least asked about how you were feeling and what this all meant for you. hanging up is never ok.

angelsnight · February 2012

Wow! Completely unprofessional, immature and just plain mean! I know you said before that you were going to find a new OB anyway, but if I were you I would see if you can find some place(s) online to leave bad reviews of her or even see if you can somehow file a formal complaint. I know she didn't do anything to physically harm you, but I think being completely unprofessional and have a terrible bedside manner to someone already in a fragile emotional state is a valid reason to at least get a complaint on record. I'm so sorry you have to deal with this.

CiderWench · February 2012

I'm speechless about her hanging up on you. That's so unprofessional and immature. I'm so sorry you are going through all this and hope you can find some peace soon.

Daiz813 · February 2012

Absolutely unacceptable. I work in health care...you need to contact the patient rep and make sure this issue is addressed. So sorry you're going through this :-(

curlylocks3 · February 2012

I am so sorry Dawn. Was this the new doctor you had just started seeing? Any chance of going back to your old doctor?

mrskitton · February 2012

WOW!!!! What an f'ing twat! I am pissed off for you now! Time to get a new Dr then!!!!

WHHHAAAAATTT?!

I canNOT believe she hung up on you!!! How unprofessional! That makes me so ridiculously angry for you!

Dawn, I'm so sorry that this has turned into an even worse situation. a m/c is hard enough- you shouldn't have to deal with this

rrdiva1 · February 2012

That is horrible and redic that you are even going through this!

I would write a letter of how unprofessional they are and find a new DR>

You deserve better, I am sorry hun

MrsFelts · February 2012

A friend of mine had a CP about a month ago. After positive tests for days and very real symptoms she started bleeding. By the time she even got into the lab to get her blood draw later that afternoon her levels were already so low she was considered not pregnant. However, her doctor was competent enough to know what the hell was going on and didn't deny that she was ever PG.

Find a new doctor stat! If it were me I'd probably call back or write her an e-mail explaining why she was completely unprofessional and that you're going elsewhere.

Indynurse12 · February 2012

Wow! How utterly and horribly unprofessional of her. I hope you can get out of there as soon as possible and get yourself to a doctor that truly cares. It can make a world of difference. So sorry you are going through all of this : (

I agree with this - does she work in conjunction with a hospital where you could file a formal complaint?

I'm sorry you are going through all you are dealing with and this idiot doctor on top of everything!

landosmommy · February 2012

WTH?!? Wow, I'm sorry Dawn.

Juicy71 · February 2012

Thankfully I'd already decided that I wouldn't go to her anymore... I mean, I'd made that decision after my annual exam with her but just went back to her since I needed to get into see someone for the m/c follow up.

I will definitely report her just not right now... I need a few days to get through all of this crap but this was certainly not something I needed today. I texted DH but i don't think he has gotten it yet. I'm sure he will have plenty of choice words for her.

NJMom050911 · February 2012

WOW. Never go back there ever again. I'm so sorry that she was this incredibly rude and unprofessional.

Ap21ril · February 2012

WTF! I'm mad for you, I can't believe someone could be so uncaring towards their patient. In addition to finding a new doctor, I'd find all of the rate a doctor websites and review her for others.

This. The healthcare system that she works with really needs the know the way that she is treating her patients. And you definitely need to find a new doctor.

Emily&Chad · February 2012

Wow!!! What a crappy person....I'm sorry Dawn!

ChristinaBRN · February 2012

WHAT!!?? That's unacceptable!! You need to contact the medical director of the practice and make a complaint!

EllaBelle2010 · February 2012

Oh hun, I'm so sorry you have to deal with horrible people on top of everything else you're going through. I agree with PPs and would definitely file a complaint.

I had to deal with a wretched wench when I had a miscarriage before DS. The nurse just looked at me and said oh its not a good pregnancy. You're going to pass this one. I started crying and she just said, well its probably better seeing as you're not married. She was sooo lucky I didn't punch her in the face, or maybe I was the lucky one for not doing it and going to jail.

Lots of thoughts and prayers to you!

lycih · February 2012

That completely unprofessional and uncalled for... I'm so very sorry they're making this whole painful situation even worse than it already is...

futuremamabird · February 2012

What a flaming, raging ***.

That makes my blood boil.

Wow.

Sorry you're having to deal with such unprofessionalism and plain RUDENESS during this time, Dawn.

bangos13 · February 2012

Time for a new doctor!

missusmeeseeks · February 2012

That is one of the most disgustingly insensitive and unprofessional things I have ever heard. I am so sorry you were treated that way and I hope you find a much better doctor...one who has a brain and doesn't treat women like garbage.

SpartanGirl24 · February 2012

WTF is she on? I can't believe she just hung up on you!

Terrible. Who was she to judge? We have a hospital here that is famous for this attitude. I'm sorry that you had that experience as well. Nurses like that make me sick.

Unem · February 2012

I'm so sorry you're going through this Dawn. You were pregnant. You have a right to be upset. {HUGS}

I want to punch your doc in the face, and I hope, for the sake of all the patients under her care, that she was d/c and didn't hang up on you.

MamaSquish · February 2012

What a horrible experience, on so many different levels! I'm sorry! Find a new Dr, asap!

tortuga47 · February 2012

WOW!!! Time for a new doc. How unprofessional!

misstrish521 · February 2012

How incredibly unprofessional. I would find a new doctor asap. Sorry you're going through all this. ((hugs))

Ladylec · February 2012

I am so sorry you are going through this and cannot believe how unprofessional and rude they were to you. I cannot understand how they can just dismiss what you are saying and how you feel and then hang up on you! Obviously you need a new doctor who is not stubborn and closed minded and who will actually care about what you have to say.
