Babies: 0 - 3 Months

I don't want to go to my 6wk post op visit!!!

I really dislike the doctor who performed my c-section.  I am not happy with her or the care I received.  The office made me schedule my 6 wk appt with her bc she was the doctor who did the c-section.  I don't trust her or her opinion on anything.  Do I really need to go to the 6 wk appt?  I feel good and my incision is healing nicely.  I need to make my yearly appointment with my regular doctor (who I love) anyway.  In your opinions, could I skip the 6 wk appt and just do my yearly?  Just the thought of seeing this doctor is stressing me out.

    Just call and cancel it, but I'd schedule a follow up with another OB/GYN just to make sure everything is healing up. You have the right to see whoever you want (just need to know what your insurance covers)!

  • Don't cancel. Call and reschedule for another doctor.
  • I go to a practice of 6 doctors.  The one that was on call when I went into labor and then needed a c-section, was the one dr I don't like or trust.  I will reschedule on Monday.

  • Same here, after my c/s...they scheduled me with the Dr. who did my c/s. I didn't dislike that Dr. but I preferred another one. I cancelled my appointment and rescheuled with the one I usually see.

  • I called this morning.  At first, they refused to change me to a different doctor.  I asked for the office manager and explained my reasoning and she had the lady who schedules the appts reschedule me with MY regular doctor!!! Such a relief!! Thanks everyone!

  • i just want to say i'm sorry you had that experience, and i hope you receive better care in the future.

    i'm really glad you are able to see a provider you are comfortable with for your post-op visit. the last thing you need right now is to add more stress over that experience. good luck to you! :)
