Unfortunately
I
have
to
give
a
two
star
review.
My
birth
experience
was
overall
very
traumatic.
I
had
a
planned
c-section,
this
was
okay
although
I
was
very
nervous
and
of
course
they
cannot
give
you
any
medication
to
deal
with
severe
anxiety
despite
this
being
the
best
for
both
myself
and
the
surgical
team.
I
have
to
say,
there
are
some
excellent
staff
here
and
the
Anaesthesiologist
and
her
student
were
by
far
the
best
doctors
I
encountered
at
this
hospital.
When
you
have
a
planned
section
here,
you
are
given
just
three
minutes
with
the
baby
before
you
are
separated
for
the
rest
of
the
operation
and
recovery
in
the
recovery
room.
This
alone
is
very
traumatic
and
seems
underdeveloped
for
a
hospital
in
supposedly
the
‘best
health
care
system
in
the
world’.
I
was
taken
to
the
recovery
room
where
I
then
had
to
wait
for
two
hours
to
be
reunited
with
my
newborn.
This
was
purely
due
to
the
fact
the
hospital
is
understaffed
and
unorganised;
meaning
no
staff
member
was
able
to
collect
me
from
the
recovery
room.
It
was
only
when
I
became
extremely
distraught
did
a
staff
member
come
to
collect
me.
Just
an
awful
experience.
Pain
relief
following
the
section
was
a
disaster.
IV
paracetamol
will
never
be
sufficient
after
such
major
surgery
and
the
staff
will
be
sure
to
belittle
you
for
feeling
pain.
If
you
need
stronger
medication,
my
advice
is
to
bring
your
own!
The
majority
of
doctors
and
midwives
here
will
tell
you
that
you
aren’t
in
pain/
cannot
have
pain,
it
is
a
true
battle
to
have
your
pain
managed
in
an
effective
way
at
this
hospital.
I
realise
it
is
mainly
bureaucratic
reasons
which
prevent
the
administration
of
stronger
pain
relief
but
ultimately
no
patient
should
be
belittled
and
ridiculed
for
being
in
pain.
Villa
Menge
is
beautiful
and
very
comfortable.
The
private
room
is
excellent
and
I
highly
recommend
it.
This
is
where
my
second
star
is
going.
However,
sadly
it
is
difficult
to
enjoy
the
space
when
you
are
in
extreme,
uncontrolled
pain.
There
were
multiple
mistakes
in
my
discharge
notes
regarding
myself
and
my
baby.
Doctors
tell
you
one
thing
and
the
papers
will
say
a
completely
different
thing.
I
also
believe
they
unnecessarily
test
for
complications
without
true
justification
or
reasoning.
I
also
believe
they
make
medial
assumptions
about
you
as
a
patient
that
are
both
unfounded
and
illogical;
resulting
in
a
poorer
level
of
care.
After
being
discharged
I
unfortunately
had
to
go
back
to
the
hospital
as
my
section
scar
became
infected
and
I
developed
a
lung
infection.
This
again
was
truly
traumatic
and
the
doctor
who
dealt
with
me
was
both
rude
and
patronising.
Saying
‘du
Arme
kind’
to
a
mother
of
two
children
is
just
ridiculous
and
unappreciated.
The
second
doctor
laughed
as
I
was
told
by
a
doctor
from
the
intensiv
station
that
I
also
had
a
lung
infection.
I
found
this
truly
horrifying.
After
a
stay
in
intensiv,
which
was
overall
much
better
than
in
gynaecology
and
the
delivery
room.
I
was
due
to
be
transferred
back
to
the
gynaecology
ward.
But
no,
this
could
not
be
simple;
I
was
then
told
i
needed
to
unnecessarily
stay
in
intensiv
because
I
was
a
covid
risk.
This
is
despite
the
head
doctor
assuring
the
gynaecology
team
that
he
was
sure
I
did
not
have
covid-19.
After
a
forceful
talk
I
was
allowed
up
to
the
ward
but
had
to
be
isolated
until
a
test
result
came
back.
For
the
first
12
hours
the
staff
took
this
seriously
and
wore
the
correct
PPE.
Of
course
this
was
annoying
for
the
staff
and
hence
why
my
empty
IVs
were
left
attached
to
me
for
hours
before
any
staff
member
took
them
out.
Was
finally
discharged
and
I
truly
hope
to
never
set
foot
in
this
hospital
again.
I
am
glad
and
grateful
for
my
recovery
and
to
the
doctors
that
are
genuinely
caring
and
empathetic.
I
am
also
glad
my
baby
was
well
cared
for
and
delivered
safely
into
this
world.
I
had
many
good
expectations
of
this
hospital
and
just
feel
so
let
down.
Overall,
I
would
never
give
birth
here
again.
