Changed doc at 20 weeks?


I am 20 wks with number 2. I just changed doctors. I changed because I did not feel I was monitored close enough. I have had 5 miscarraiges in the past, and my son was really premature. My old doc would rarely return a call (I have ended up in ER twice for bleeding) and when her nurse finally did, she was just plain rude. She would belittle my concerns, at one point she (again, the nurse, not the doc) said that if I were having a miscarraige, there would be nothing the doc could do about it anyhow (exact words) so get some rest and call in the morning after 9am. I referred myself to a high risk (this one was recomended by my sons teacher) and requested my records be forwarded to him. Now my old doc called me to find out why I switched. I liked her enough, I just did not feel that her office took my concerns seriously. Do I tell her this? Do I tell her that her nurse was a B@#CH? Or worse, that there were SERIOUS issues, that had they looked at when I called, may be less complicated now

Honesty would definately be the best policy here. You dont have to use the term B@#CH when describing your issues. Just advise her that you feel your pregnancy is definately high risk status and every time you called her nurse had belittled you and made you feel like a last priority. Let her know she was definately likeable enough but that you were treated extremely rudely. Give examples of wordage the nurse used with you. It's not fair to the doctor that she loses trust, patients, business because someone she probably didn't hire herself is causing her patients grief.
Nor is it fair to other patients who are being treated the same way...really, your complaint may save a little life someday!
As a matter of fact, you should contact the state board of nursing and file a complaint. Just google the state name and board or nursing. Here's an example "california"+"board of nursing"...click consumer affairs and file a complaint!

I would tell the doc your real concerns. And tell her about how the nurse treated you. If they will act like that with you then they are probably doing it to other patients. If you may be able to help another worried pregnant woman then that would be great. I am 32w and i wish i would have switched my doctor. I have only seen my doctor once in 32w, every other time i go i am only seen by a nurse, who had no idea about anything.

I would tell her that you loved her, but had problems with her nurse ignoring your concerns. That way she can discuss this with her nurse and hopefully address it so that it won't happen to another high risk patient.
