I'm extremely unhappy with my recent experience in gynaecology. Inadequate history, then asked the same questions by 6 different people, then pressure to have a pregnancy test despite being 15 years into menopause, then had a procedure under general anaesthetic which did not solve my problem, waited 6 weeks for results, and was advised to go to A&E or my GP when I phoned to say my problem was ongoing (post-menopausal bleeding).
I have since been referred to the Homerton where I was treated with respect and a polyp has been removed in outpatients which was missed by Lewisham.
