So i went to my docters a few days ago to get Aliyah weighed..
You dont get an appointment time,its 1st come 1st served basis..
It was my 1st time going so wasnt exactly sure how it went as no1 informed me..
Anyway i was no.4 to be seen..The health visitor came out and just said 'Next please'
so i said to the other couple im number 4..is it me or you thats next to be seen..they said 'you' just as they said that the health visitor over spoke them and goes to me
'well if you dont wanna be seen thats fine,come in' to the other couple!

i thought nothing of it..anyway she called me in next and i was polite..she told me to put Aliyah on the scales to be weighed..the said she weights 3.88 kgs so i said oh okay whats that in pounds..she turns around and said 'do the math'!
so by now i got bit annoyed and said no you do the math im asking you a Q as your my health visitor you should be able to help me?
and she was just like no i cant we havnt used pounds since 1977! i said well funny i went to school not long ago and they taught me pounds then she goes er well use a conversion chart! i said yes i willl i was only asking a Q,dont worry your useless by the looks of it!she goes iv never met someone so rude!i said welll iv never come acorss a health visitor like you,all my past ones seem to be more than happy to help and she goes welll cant you see im doing 3 things at once! (when all she was doing was filling in Aliyahs book as to how much she weighed) i was just like you know what,you got it in for me since you saw me in that waiting room..there is a conversion chart in the book your filling in but i guess youv never actually looked through it to know!
then she started talking to a trainee that was in the room going 'oh its 12 o clock we have to be out' as she said that i havnt even half dressed Aliyah by this point and i said erm excuse me but im not rushing no where,iv just walked in,you havnt even looked at Aliyah! and yet your rushing me out the room..no sorry!

then she goes and calls the nurse in to say how much of a rude patient i am!
she then turns around n starts discussing the last patient! she was like oh im so glad shes breast feeding..i mean some mums cant do it and they struggle (hint hint at me)! and ow her husbands found a job and they are a propa family unit so im helping them as much as i can (shes obv presuming im a single mum!) by now im just fuming! like what the hell is up with this women!
she said you have to book in for Aliyahs 6weeks appointment and i said yeh i have she goes when for and i said sorry im doing 3 things at once! coz she really got to me! then i walked out!

anyway i have our 6 week check up with the health visitor this Thurs..i rung the docs to see if its going to be the same one and she doesnt know :)
i really hope not coz now i feel kinda bad that she might let it out on Aliyah when doig her jabs or something :(x
 
How rude! Some people should get a job that requires patience (sp) if they dont have none! :hugs:
 
Whats wrong with me today? Lol. I ment to say shouldnt not should.
 
That's awful hun, like the others said you should defo complain, they can't treat you like that! I hope you get a different hv when she has her checks :)
 
i would def complain! thats horrible they have no right to judge u they dnt know ur situation and AHHH i jst hate ppl like that i hope next one goes better hun!! :hugs: good luck and let us know if it was her this next time haha
 
:hugs: That's awful.
I agree with the others you need to complain!
 
im guna write a complaint letter and hand it in after i been seen on thurs..but knowing my docters they will do absolutly nothing about her..she was only like that coz im a 'young mum' you could tell :/ x
 
she sounds like a right bitch! she shouldn't be in the job if thats her attitude! xxx
 
I wouldn't let it rest, if they do nothing I'd take it further somehow x
 
ugh that is not right for her to start calling you rude when she's the one being so unprofessional
 
Thats awful, she was wrong on so many levels, like talking about a previous mum, thats breaking confidentiality rules etc and stereo typing you, answering back....I think she would definitely get a disciplinary for it.

Really out of order that is....all my HVs/Midwifes have been so nice! Shocking.
 
That's so terrible. Glad you're reporting her! I'd be fuming x
 
TBH I woulda punched her I think haha. I'll give a mouthful to ANYBODY who tries to judge me as a parent. Think I'm lucky that my HV is lovely and thinks me and my OH are ''brilliant'' xx
 
she has broke confidentualty rules report her and what she said as it will have 2 be looked in2 then she could lose her job silly cow
 
defo complain, the way she treated you was disgusting, and also talking about other patients is illegal, hope she gets sacked!
 
report her hun, thats totally unacceptable. put it in writting and it will have to be investigated as a complaint!
 
Just hearing they were like this to u has made me angry. that is sick and i would complain to the NHS. this is damn right out of order. she shouldnt treat you like that cause your a young mum.
