I am 11 weeks pregnant and I went to the Lewisham hospital for the first scan. In the appointment letter they suggested me to start to drink water an hour before the appointment. The day of the appointment I was there at 10.20 (my appointment was at 10.30) but I was left waiting until 11.30 and you can imagine how difficult has been not to use the toilet, especially since I have a problems with my kidney.
When I asked explaination on why there was a delayed the nurse and the people at the reception were extremely rude. The toilet in the department was out of service (in a place with two hundred pregnant people). In the other bathroom both sinks were broken, the window was broken, the flush was not working and the bathroom was disgusting. I think this level of rudeness and lack of hygiene so beyond acceptable.
"Unacceptable"
