Is it bad manners to change FS?
Just a quick question to all TTCers. I have just had my first EVER appt with a FS (Ob/Gyn) having waited two months for the appointment. I was pretty disappointed with the meeting.
He asked me a few questions, did a pelvic then gave me a script for Clomid and a brochure and sent me on my way. When I asked about other treatments (eg metformin)as I had heard about side effects he said they were rare (not from what I can tell) and there was no proof that Metformin worked anyway. When I started trying to tell him about my BBT and charting experiences he said he wouldn't bother as it meant nothing. (despite it showing a clear pattern) Does that mean that everyone else is wrong?
He was a cheerful enough man but I felt like he was being dismissive of my medical history (PCOS) and a little offhand. A bit too relaxed considering the reason I had been referred. Despite all the YEARS I have been researching my infertility he made me feel stupid and like it was a waste of time. I was in and out of there in 25 minutes and this was a first appointment.
Is this the "usual" experience for a first meeting with a FS? Should I change or shoudl I persevere seeing as I have started with this one? How can you tell if you are going to get a "good" one? Can anyone recommend anyone who practices in the Sydney CBD? Maybe a woman this time?
Cheers and thanks for any feedback!
