Worse Maternity Care in UK??

Story from nhs.uk

"Worse Maternity Care in UK??"

About: Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust

Actually ruins the experience of having a baby.

I have accompanied my wife of several occasions to the maternity appointments (if you can call them that, more of a catle Market Free-for-all!!)

The service is so fragmented.

Standard appointments 3-4 hours long, mostly moved from waiting room to waiting room!

Me and my wife I both Drs and I am suprised to see how inadequate and poor the service is! It really is a shambles, I would be ashamed to think my patients experience such poor care.

Please have your child/materniry care elsewhere.

I know for sure not all maternity services are so poor!!!!!
