Hours waiting at foetal medicine

Other
February 25, 2025
Before Christmas the wait at foetal medicine was about 30 minutes which isn't a problem. But since Christmas there are long waits, it can be 4 hours. Today was only 1 hour. The staff are fine but I don't find they answer my questions that I need answering.

The scan was relatively okay, no problems there. They sent me in on time and I got to see baby which is always nice. I never feel rushed.

Long waits and a nightmare parking

Antenatal Clinic

The car park is a nightmare. The staff are fine but the wait times at the diabetic clinic at antenatal is long. I had to ask why there is a long wait. I had a scan in the morning and they then put me on the next appointment in the afternoon due to the waiting times.

Very good at antenatal, really supportive staff. Been a bit of a long wait but it is okay because I missed the appointment time and they still saw me.

Haven't told us about the long waits

There is no communication about the long waits at antenatal, it's not usually like this. It would be good if they would let us know if we're going to be waiting a long time.

At the end of my pregnancy I was pushed for intervention when there was no need for an induction.
