"DISCUSTING!!"

About: Marsh Medical Practice

I recently had a miscarriage. The doctors didn't really perform any tests or examinations to confirm this (did my own pregnancy test a few weeks later after other signs which was the only thing to confirm I was no longer pregnant). Since then it has been a complete balls up.

When asked to put me back on my contraceptive pill they had put me on the wrong one. As I work in Lincoln it is very difficult for me to see any doctor or reorder any prescription (I ask my relative for help with this.) I then had to argue with the receptionists in order for a doctor to call me back as apparently they are NEVER available! Not the case as I did get a call within 10 minutes from the doctor. FAB!

The doctor then put me back on the contraceptive that I was supposed to be on and told me the next time I would have to be reviewed would be next year (2019). This would have been great, but when my relative went to order more for me, she was then told that I was taken off the repeat prescription!

After having more arguments with the receptionists once again I then got a call back by the on-call doctor who was happy to put me back on the repeat as he could see the notes left by the previous doctor about all this (something no one else could see...)

Out of interest I then asked why I was taken off the repeat... turns out, I was taken off because I was PREGNANT! Well I didn't even know at this point that I was currently pregnant because before I spoke to the doctor about my pill I had gone in about the miscarriage... NOT PREGNANT!!

All I can say is thank GOD I had a call with my councillor the next day! After the last 2 months of hell all this was the last thing I needed!

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!!
