Worst experience with Welcare in Garhoud
Its a long story. I thought I must share the worst experience I had with the gynaec at Welcare Hospital in Garhoud. I was 5 months preganant in Jan 2014 when I decided to start my checkup with her. It was a good experience the first time I met her. She seemed very qualified and was a specialist in Fetal medicine and Ultrasound scan. Seeing her vast qualifications I became more comfortable. I had missed out my down syndrome screening scan and blood test in my first trimester as I didn't know about. Once I started with Welcare the doctor suggested as I am below 35 I could opt to do a triple marker test done in the second trimester. This is a blood test and few days later she informed me that I am at high risk. Since the results are just 60% accurate she suggested I do Amniocentesis (testing the amniotic fluid) where the results are almost 100% accurate. I went on 22nd Jan, she did a scan before the test was conducted and I saw very clearly on her screen that the baby was constantly moving and the heartbeat was absolutely normal. Just after the fluid was extracted a scan was done and it was a shock to see the baby turn to a side and heartbeat was falling drastically. When asked the doctor said that baby has gone into a sleeping phase. That night my husband and myself were thinking what went wrong. We were really worried. My next appt for anatomy scan was only on the 16th Feb. I didnt have the patience to wait till then. So the next day i.e., 23rd Jan I went for a repeat scan and to my surprise and shock the doctor couldn't find the heartbeat and any movement. She declared the baby dead. We just couldnt believe it. Since the fluid has to be sent to Germany, she checked with the nurse if it has already been sent. The nurse confirmed that it has been sent the same day by courier to Germany. The doctor was in such a hurry to cancel the test and she ended up doing it. I was asked to be admitted at welcare for a normal delivery on 28th Jan and after several tries I had a normal delivery on 31st Jan. My poor baby was dead. I carried my dead baby for almost a week dead. The doctor suggested that they can forward the baby's tissue and a part of the placenta to Germany to check for any chromosomal issues. We agreed to that. Today after I have waited for almost a month the irresponsible doctor says that the tissue wasn't transported properly due to which it couldn't be analysed. This is heights of irresponsibility. Now how can I reverse this situation.To make it worse, the doctor is absolutely cool about it. Please never ever risk yourself with this hospital. We had a such a big loss in life and we are still going through the mental trauma. This is purely medical negligence.
