Quite honestly in disbelief about the way we were treated by midwives and doctors in Ninewells. Made to feel like my wife’s preferences or wishes did not matter one bit. Denied everything she asked and made to feel like an inconvenience. No care or compassion at all.
The staff attitude we encountered was appalling. One doctor said that it’s not about how childbirth happens but having a healthy child at the end of it… That is clearly how they treat women here, like they do not matter. And the healthy child at the end is only after all the prodding and poking has happened. Just in disbelief. We will not come back to this hospital for birth again.
