"rude staff..extremely stonehearted"

About: Whipps Cross University Hospital / Gynaecology

I started with minor bleeding, I was sent to EGU by A&E and was scanned, was told to come after 1wk for a re-scan. After bleeding increased with cramping went A&E and again was referred to EGU and was told I had natural miscarriage and don't need to do anything further. I wasn't satisfied as ive had bleeding with a previous pregnacy and asked GP to refer me for another scan which they did. After I didn't receive an appointment I called the EGU and explained everything but was told by an extremely rude staff I've had a misscarriage I'm no longer pregnant I won't be scanned.

For someone going through such moment the staff should've been understanding and in my case I was left feeling even more depressed.

Staff need to be more experienced for EGU dept and not heartless.

We're sorry your experience at the hospital wasn't to the usual high standard we strive for on a daily basis.

We pride ourselves on our safe and compassionate care and for you to not feel you received this from staff in the EGU is unacceptable and we apologise for this.

If you would like for us to investigate this, then please contact the PALS Team by email: pals@bartshealth.nhs.uk

All the best,

Barts Health NHS Trust
