Hello ladies
If anyone would be able to give any advice, it would be much appreciated. I feel like i'm at my wits end with this - and i just don't know where to turn!
Its about my midwife. I've had problems with the care i've recieved from her from day one, and now i'm really wanting a change. There are two midwives who work through my doctors surgery, and i see them both. I don't wish to see them anymore as they have let me down tremendously - but i've no idea where to turn to get another
I phoned around several places looking for help, but everyone said 'you need to phone your doctors surgery and get them to sort something'. I did this on Friday and the lady seemed unsure what to do because they only employ the two working there.
I'm waiting on a phonecall back from the doctor's practise manager, but i expect she'll just file a complaint against the midwives in question & expect me to carry on seeing them. I don't feel this is an option for me.
I don't know where else to turn. I've wondered if the local hospitals run midwives like my doctors do - but i don't know how to go about seeing one of those instead.
I'm so upset about this - i worry about when baby is born and i have to see health visitors at my doctors surgery, i worry about bumping into the midwives there
I've been so let down by them, and i've been left feeling frustrated and upset by the whole 'midwife' experience. Surely it shouldn't be this tricky to change?
Thank you for any help or advice, it really is appreciated
