    Worst place to give birth. The nurses that were on night duty on the 24th of April 2017 were horrible. They had no respect for patients. I went in excited because it was my first birth, instead I walked out miserable and suffered anxiety attacks every time I replayed the events of that day in my head. They made me feel like I had committed the biggest sin by getting pregnant and they were determined to punish me for it. From being scolded for not being able to shut my mouth during my last phase of contractions to being told 'I'm gonna dirty the nurse's clothes' coz my bloody leg kept bumping her during labour- so while being caught up in labour I had to also make sure that my blood didn't mess the nurse. I won't even mention how you weren't allowed to feel or react to pain, even when they stitch you roughly, should you give out as much as a whimper, you received a threat that the nurse will leave you as you are and not continue with her job. After labour you are told to get dressed(without being shown where to clean yourself) and told to go get your belongings from the passage. I had to quickly go into the bathroom to wipe off as much blood as I could. When I returned I was told to take my baby and go find a bed to sleep on. I found my baby freezing, left alone while they were 'chatting' in the office. Again I did not receive equipment to clean my baby, just told to go find a bed, this was midnight. As a first time mom I expected the nurses to be very helpful because I was clueless about how to clean babies, how to get through labour etc. I also expected to be aided by people who would be empathetic to my situation, instead I got a bunch of Hitlers. We were woken up at 5am, told to call someone to come fetch us coz our time was up apparently so we had to get off the beds and move on to the passage to wait until we were collected by our families. Lastly I found that they wrote the wrong birth date, name and surname on my papers, they didn't give me my contraceptive shot(but gave me a card claiming they did), they also didn't give me the discharge medication they wrote on the papers they gave me. i'm not sure if this is how they treat most patients or maybe I was unfortunate to catch them on a bad mood but I will never forget the birth of my first child.

    I'm very disappointed with the service from this clinic,it's not my first time here on 2017 October 10 I was here to give birth to my son the nurses where so good but today what I saw is very painful I came in with my son around past 2 in the morning, when the paramedics inform the nurse about my son sickness they all laughed,I ignored it cause I need help,it didn't end there as I was waiting for their help they where busy gossiping bad about other patient who where here before and they where proud of how badly they treat them then they attend my son in a manner of not caring enough for a 4years old son 😢.they took him temperature and one of the nurse went to wake up the doctor from sleep she came and checked my son and also give him some drops of medication and she rub him around with a cold cloth after that she ask me to go outside with my son and seat there I took my belongings and seat on waiting chairs,iam very hurt as I write this complain my son is sleeping down on the floor while all the nurses and doctor they are sleeping on patient bed and gossiping about patients.

    One of two clinics in diepsloot, the service is not world class but they help enough. they could increase their working hours and open during the weekend though. that would make things much better.
