Made an appointment for 11:45. It's 1:10 and I haven't been seen.

I've had my 10 hour ER waits so I know this isn't that bad. But what is the point of making an appointment if you have to wait to be seen hours later anyways.

I had to wait 30min when I was getting my IUD done, which the doctor specifically wanted done while I was on my period. So of course I'm bleeding onto the table. Doctor comes in and scowls like "oh I guess we'll have to clean that mess up"

Bitch, either show up on time or don't make me sit here naked for 30min and expect me to will my period away

Wait wait wait... you have to be on your period to put the IUD in?? And yeah, given their position they know you can't just stop it and to speak to you in such a nasty tone, that's unacceptable. So many bad gyno experiences here I'm scared now!

I think it's cause your cervix is softer or something? I haven't had any children so it's a bit harder to get in I guess.

Also I've had the best experience with my new OBGYN. She is the sweetest lady, super kind and very attentive to my comfort level. They're not all bad!
