[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two big mistakes were made during my care at GW. During one shift change following the mistakes I was described to another nurse as having "extreme anxiety." [/quote] I had an OB miss pretty classic HELLP, only catch it eventually because I insisted on blood tests and, ultimately, almost kill me after not taking its progression seriously enough even once it was caught. INOVA Fairfax doctors were no help at all, because I was considered a private patient of my OB (who had privileges there but wasn’t otherwise associated). The L&D nurses were awesome, however, and encouraged me to speak up/call my Dr in the middle of the night because they agreed with me that something was wrong. My second pregnancy I went to the GW OB practice because I wanted MFMs on staff “in case” and I couldn’t have been happier. I didn’t love post partum at the hospital, but not for safety reasons.[/quote]
