"Colposcopy gone wrong"

About: Latrobe Regional Hospital

(as the patient),

I believe my gynaecologist completely botched my colposcopy.

It seems they allowed the Nurse to play with the bin and the floor, after dropping my biopsies on the floor and then allowed the Nurse to use sterile tools on me without changing their gloves.

In 15 days, I spent 11 either in hospital or at the doctors. I’ve since seen a different gynaecologist who I believe is horrified and has also found out the first gynaecologist didn’t even take the biopsies properly so I’ll have to have another colposcopy to have more biopsies taken.

I’m absolutely traumatised by the whole experience, I’m beyond frustrated and annoyed. This is my health and my life these people are playing with here.
