[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I delivered at both. Much preferred Sibley. At GW, it was like a whole medical class came to watch the delivery.[/quote]

Sibley might do this too now since they’ve been bought by Hopkins. [/quote]

Teaching hospital or no they still need your permission to have students in the room.  If it is something you feel strongly about just cross out that section on the informed consent paperwork and say you do not consent to students present. [/quote]

Lol I had students and residents all involved in my GW birth. No one ever asked for my consent, they just showed up in the room. They seemed basically giddy that I was having complications and excited to see my delivery when I was in extreme agony and worried about my baby dying. It was just horrible, and a huge part of the reason I selected Sibley for my next delivery. There I was treated with respect and professionalism by everyone and I was not left to
Feel like I was on display for a group of immature amateurs. [/quote]

In all probability the students presence was on the general “informed consent” paperwork you signed on admittance. I specifically refused students in mine (and photography!) but you have to know both to look out for it AND that you’re allowed to say no which is definitely not well advertised in teaching practices.[/quote]
