About: Barnet Hospital / Maternity

First of all i went to Barnet Hospital for my teaching classes before giving birth and luckily i went and asked if by any chance i have a scan appointment because i did not get anyting in the post.Guess what i had the appointment that day so I was in hospital

From 9 in the morning until 20 pm.after the scan they send me to Mdu .the staff from

mdu took my file and thats it no blood taken no urine chech nothing for 2 h 1/2 .after i went and complaint that everyone goes before me and they where having more or less same problem like me they did something about it although the staff was rude answering that its not true we are not taking people before you .they check my baby heartbeat after finishing they took all the stuff off my bump no tissues to clean myself no reply no nothing.one midwife comes and i asked what i should do they say :wait,after second one comes and they say very rude if you have finished you can wait outside.so they dont comunicate at all..After all those check ups i found out i am having gestational diabetes at 37 weeks of pregnancy.they told me to wait for an appointment from the diabetic clinic that was on Friday.Tuesday morning i called more or less everyone in Barnet hospital to find out where is my appointment nobody knows anything.i have called my midwife from edgware hospital and guess what i had an appointment on Tuesday at 2.30 but nobody contacted my although i am 38 weeks pregnant and my baby is engaged.still not sorted still waiting for their appointment or phone call .very disgusted about their service they should do something about this because i need to get treatment before anything happens.the midwifes ar doing classes and they cannot come and talk to pacients the dr from the Mdu if its an emergency in a&e h needs to run and we are left in there for hours.thats juat disgusting i just hope my baby is fine .Absolutely gutted of hhow they treat a human life

Dear Roxana

Thank you for taking time to leave feedback on your experiences; the care you describe is far below the standard we set ourselves; the head of service is keen to meet with you and go through in more detail.

If you would like to meet with them then please can you email me your details to richardchester@nhs.net if you do email can you put it is in response to your NHS Choice feedback.

When you are in Barnet Hospital having your baby please feel free to contact me and one of the patient experience staff will come to see you to make sure everything is going well.

Kind Regards

Richard

Richard Chester - deputy director of patient experience
