"Avoid at all costs!"

About: Doncaster Royal Infirmary / Maternity care

I was transferred to doncaster from another hospital to be induced. The nurse who put the pessarie inside me was very rough and hurt me a lot. I was also begging for pain relief when the contractions were unbearably painful and I was bleeding a lot but all they would give me was paracetamol. No privacy despite being in absolute agony they kept me in a room with 2 other ladies and their partners. I was having painful contractions for 21 hours before they bothered to transfer me to my own room and give me proper pain relief. For the last 6 hours I was looked after very well and treated with respect and understanding. Then on ward m2 when waiting to go home I was kept waiting from 6.30pm until gone midnight to be properly discharged. Absolutely shocking treatment from this hospital. I'm traumatised by my experience.
