I had a very difficult and emotional day yesterday as I went to a fertility doc for the first time. It’s also my first true gyno appointment in over 13 years; I’ve done my well-woman care with a local midwife. He was everything I hate about doctors: aloof, brusque, slightly dismissive. He didn’t listen very well. NO sense of humor. In listing all ( Read more... )

*hugs* I'm sorry you have to deal with this. I highly recommend finding a new doctor - female if possible. That guy sounds like a complete asshole. I didn't work with my OBGYN in Clear Lake for babies, but I liked her and would recommend her if you need someone.

Dr. Alecia M. Davis-Townsend, MD
17448 Highway 3 # 200
Webster, TX 77598
(713) 442-4300

Oh excellent. Thank you for this recommendation. I don't know why I didn't think of asking for recommendations here in the first place. I'm going to try Dr. Schnell next because she comes so highly recommended as an RE. Thanks!

I feel bad because I remember talking to you at the restaurant and meaning to send you her info. Still you have it now. As far as your family, people get really weird when you have fertility problems. I know my mom did but then again she had some the the same issues as me. I think she had three miscarriages because medical science wasn't there.

First, I fill you with coffee-scented hugs and love.

Second, when in the need of shitty (or delicious) margaritas and someone to listen to cursing, I am also always available.

Third, doctors are horse shit loving motherfuckers. Nearly all of them. I forget who deemed a higher level degree the equivalent of a get-to-be-a-vinegar-bag badge, but it seems to be a common practice. I think more doctors should be confronted with a finger in the face and a full-on neck roll bitch out. It isn't as though you don't have options, bunch of assholes.

Luff and huggles.
