"Horrible."

About: Priory Hospital

This consultant is lucky I'm not able to share his name. I went in for a gynaecology consultation and while the admin staff were so nice, the nurse and consultant were horrible. making comments about my weight is not okay. In addition the consultant took my age and told me my problems would be solved when I get married and have children. this consultant assumed that since I was of a similar racial origin...that I would follow the life path expected of someone of this particular culture. What if I had not been a heterosexual female that desires children in the future? they didn't let me get a word in edgeways when it came to treatment option, advised me to take something when I clearly have a contraindication. Also took note of what I was studying and told me I should know about all these treatment options already. Having completed the first year of a pharmacy course... I highly doubt that I would know this much.

Thank you for your feedback. The experience you describe is certainly not what we would expect from a visit to our Hospital under the care of one of our consultants. The public nature of this website and our duty to protecting your confidentiality means that I cannot respond in great detail here, but I wanted to reassure you, and anyone else reading this, that experiences like the one you describe are extremely rare and certainly not what we wish for our patients. To enable me to look into this thoroughly and investigate the concerns you have raised please do not hesitate to contact Elizabeth Clayton who will liaise with the departments involved.

Regards,
