Nevertheless, all the information shared here is provided in a general sense and is intended to educate on the subject. Only a doctor who has the opportunity to examine and assess your health based on your medical history and other factors is the best person to talk to about your specific needs and requirements in any area, so always talk to them before making any decisions about your health.
A gynaecological examination is one of the most intimate moments in a woman's life, so it is important for a woman not to be ashamed, to have confidence in her doctor and to know that he is there, listening to her, dealing expertly with every problem she comes in with and never mocking her. We guarantee the professionalism and respect of our doctors towards the patient with a brand.
When does a woman consider changing gynecologist?
From awkward first conversations to relying on friends for personal recommendations, finding the right gynecologist is a bit like dating. You want the doctor-patient relationship to be perfect. Most importantly, you want it to last. Even if your gynecologist knows you inside and out (literally), it's important to remember that you always have the right to end the relationship. "You don't have to feel guilty," says psychologist Faith Tanney, PhD. Just as people break up in their partner life, so do we break up in our professional life.
The most common reasons when women leave their gynecologists
Not listening
We all have days when we are desperate, but it is the doctor's job to know your medical history and so they must also listen. You should also prepare thoroughly for your visit, as you are aware that the doctor has a larger number of patients and therefore may not remember them all. Especially if you don't go regularly. On the other hand, he can't remember information you don't provide, so you need to be sure you've done all that before you definitely leave. At home, regularly write down things you want to mention or ask, and make sure you come across each one during the meeting. It's best to mark everything in your menstrual calendar.
She's disrespectful
"I only had a few questions and my gynaecologist interrupted me before I could finish the first sentence, telling me not to make a drama out of my pregnancy and to read everything on the internet."
If your doctor doesn't respect your beliefs, or doesn't answer your questions, that's definitely grounds for a grounding. The gynaecologist must always be open and respectful. Also, no doctor should recommend the internet, because we all know that just as we can find true information on the internet, we can also find false information. Unfortunately, we are not all experts in all industries, so the most reliable form of information comes from the mouth of a subject matter expert. Otherwise, you risk choosing information that is not correct.
You feel uncomfortable
Let's face it, we are all very vulnerable in the gynecologist's office. He sees our most intimate affairs and knows our sexual and other histories. Trust your instincts and change doctors if you just don't feel well. There is no need to feel like you have to justify it to anyone, just switch based on how you feel.
Makes you wait
When you have a deadline scheduled, you expect it to be met. Unfortunately, sometimes there is a situation where there is a delay. This is normal, as it can always happen that the patient's condition in front of you required a longer examination time than expected. It would be most unprofessional and inhumane if the doctor sent the patient away and did not complete the examination. You, who are waiting in the waiting room, would also like the doctor to attend to you for as long as your health condition requires. Of course, if it happens that the doctor is late for work, for example, or often your time is not respected, this is a sign that you should find a new doctor.
You have an aversion to visitors
If the idea of having to go to the gynaecologist used to cause you fear, stress or resistance, it is clear that you need to find someone new. We're not saying you'll be anywhere more excited about this show, let's face it, it's not gin tonic on the beach. But if you don't like the human side of it, or you don't get along with your gynecologist, it's time to move on. If you go to the doctor you see with aversion, there is a risk that you will not go as regularly as your condition requires and therefore some diseases may not be diagnosed in time.
Not in your town
Even if you love your gynecologist, it may not be entirely responsible to still be registered with him or her if you live in another city. For example, in Bratislava there are many people who live and work here, but their doctors reside in the city. However, what if something acute strikes you? Emergency is not an option. Firstly, it is more costly for you and secondly, the emergency room is meant to be used for emergencies. Dysfunctional bleeding, pregnancy and others, are long term issues requiring a regular visit to the doctor, not an acute matter.
Nothing can be done
You want a gynecologist who will keep trying until he gets to the root of your problem and finds a solution that is workable and satisfactory. If your doctor insists that nothing can be done about your condition, it's a sign that you need a new care provider.
Inappropriate comments
Unfortunately, we also often encounter that the doctor has inappropriate comments on the weight, body, or health of the patient, which can hurt any woman. If the doctor says things to you that make you feel embarrassed in any way, walk out the door and don't look back. It's not someone you want looking after your health. Everything can be said sensitively.
