"nightmare"

About: St Peter's Hospital / Gynaecology

i did a colposcopy/biopsy in there

nothing was explained,they were rude and unprofessional

it was a student there and they just ignored me focusing on showing her "how it's done".

i think she even took the biopsy sample twice - just for practice.

I was just sitting there being ignored and nobody bother to explain anything.

and the pain! - they simply dismissed me - it's normal!!

really ?

i was smart enough to beg my GP to transfer me to another hospital for the Lletz procedure - well, it turns out that the pain and the bleeding are not normal as they said.

this time the procedure was done by true professional people - small pain, anaesthesia and the bleeding half compared to the biopsy done at St Peters and Lletz is a more complex procedure!

The pain and the humiliation - i'll never go back to St Peters

also, it's an abuse to force somebody to accept that students practice on them.

you didn't have any common sense!

also, i've asked you for a picture of the colposcopy or to see something - you said you can't - how come in the other hospital they even printed a picture for me??
