Review of Dr Beulah Emelyne Green


1.0
Went to Dr B Green because we were battling to fall pregnant, she was great in the beginning. I referred her to my friends, she made me feel comfortable with everything and seemed caring and understanding. She booked me in for a D&C and to have endriomesis removed, when i was in theatre it was the scariest thing, i was treated like an object and nothing explained, I laid there half naked with the light on me, she didn't say a word to me. 2 weeks after the operation I phoned to speak to her and the receptionist said, "The Doctor does not speak on the phone", so i had to ask the receptionist to ask her how long do i need to wait before sexual intercourse and if it was normal that i had not started my period. The receptionist said i needed to wait 6 weeks till intercourse and that the doctor has suggested i go for a blood test with regard to no period. The Saturday I went for the blood test, and the test came out positive for pregnancy. I was over joyed because we had been battling... but realised I was pregnant before the operation and went through the D&C and removal of endriomesis... A miracle indeed.
So the pregnancy visits started and all the blood tests for HIV, etc. she sent us for blood tests and didn't us an option. The last test she sent me for was the Down Syndrome test, take note i was only 25 years old. If there are any problems her receptionist will phone me on Friday to come in... that Friday I got the call... I was devastated. I asked to speak to Dr Green and that was refused. I asked to come in immediately and was told, they will only see me on Monday. I have never experienced such sadness, my heart was literally broken and i couldn't stop crying. Someone i worked with dropped me off at home, i was in such a state. I tried to calm down because i knew that the stress wasn't good for my baby. Luckily we had the weekend to do research, and decide what our next step was. Monday came and Dr Green told us she is booking me in for Amniocentesis, my husband replied with no you wont... because it is a high risk procedure. She wasn't impressed and made us sign a paper in my file after a lecture. Then she told us the blood test is not a hundred percent right and that if it comes out negative there is still a chance of down syndrome... WHY ARE WE DOING THESE TESTS IF THEY ARE NOT 100% ACCURATE?!
I stressed through out my pregnancy and didn't enjoy it, the way i should have because she had made me do this test.
We carried on going to the scans with her and our baby looked hundreds, i asked Dr Green if all is ok, and she said he is healthy all measurements were good... She completely forgot about everything she had said to us. They can apparently pick up down syndrome when measuring baby's neck in the scans. When we reminded her she then referred us to another doctor for further scans, which we just ignored because we had made a decision. But the least she could have done is put our minds at ease.
Anyways i was due in April 2013 and she luckily went away on holiday during this time, i went to Dr Magaritov while she was away, he had to do an emergency C-Section because my blood pressure was quite high and i was retaining a lot of water. When we went into theatre, Dr Magaritov asked how i was, he was so caring, he held my hands while they did the epidural. I was shocked at how amazing he was compared to what i experienced when i went for the D&C. I was really impressed with him and i am blessed that he was there for the birth.
My son was born on the 2nd of April 2013, and he is perfect.
After her holiday she phoned me (Yes!!! she literally spoke over the phone for the first time) to book my 6 week check up with her, which i didn't.
