I too, had a good experience with Dr. Jenkins initially. Until I got pregnant. I will start off by saying this has taken me 2 years to finally write this as I really have not wanted to have to go through this experience again but really feel that I need to for others and to move forward as I think about it very often like PTSD. After having a hard time conceiving, I was finally able to with my first pregnancy. I called and made an appointment with Dr. Jenkins. I ended up starting to bleed at work on a Friday. I went home and didn’t move from bed all night because I was scared. I ended up with such worry and anxiety that I barely slept and decided since I was still bleeding and it being a Saturday, that I would go to a remote ER. I called ahead to make sure they could do an ultrasound. They did the ultrasound, saw the baby, everything looked ok but though it might be a subchorionic hemorrhage. Still worried, I called Dr. Jenkins office first thing Monday and requested to speak to his nurse. I explained what was happening as I was still bleeding and that I also wasn’t sure if I should take my anxiety medications for baby’s safety but I was having such bad anxiety over bleeding. My appointment was scheduled for that Thursday and she tried to get me to keep it at that but I pushed back to come in sooner. The nurse said she would ask/check with Dr. Jenkins. She called back saying that Dr. Jenkins said just to keep the Thursday appointment. So I went in on Thursday only to get an ultrasound first thing and then the tech to say she didn’t see any baby. I went in to see Dr. Jenkins who confirmed I was/had lost the baby. I was very upset and told him about how I called to come in sooner and he stated that it wouldn’t have changed anything. I explained that I was aware that you cant stop a miscarriage, I’m not an idiot, but if I had come in, maybe we could have seen sooner so I wouldn’t have had my nerves/anxiety on edge all week which doesn’t help, when we already knew something was off with bleeding, rather than coming in to expect to see a baby and see nothing. I advised him it’s about being supported by your Dr. especially when you call and ask to be. Dr. Jenkins responded by saying that I should have pushed harder with his nurse then when I called to get in sooner and that as I could see, he is way busier then when I had last gone into see him however long ago that was. So not only am I not getting any support, you’re blaming me and making excuses. I was PO’d to say the least especially with what I was already going through at the moment just finding out I lost my baby. We discussed the ER visit and the results of that ultrasound trying to get a bit of answers. Dr. Jenkins said that he could order the actually ultrasound CD, take a look and let me know his opinion. I signed the form with his office for them to order it from the ER. I had a bad feeling about it so I went into the ER a week or so later to get a copy myself and asked them if anyone else had requested a copy. They said no! I never heard from his office again. Obviously I was NEVER going back to see Dr. Jenkins again after how this was handled or lack thereof and how I was treated, so I decided not to even follow up with them. But again, not to do what you said you would after all of that adds a whole other level a shady crappiness to the whole situation! I will never get this out of my mind and have relived this situation and his words in my head many times and I’m sure I will never fully heal from this. Its almost irrelevant of the miscarriage. It’s the treatment of the professional you’re relying on a such an important scary time and how that resulted. I REALLY hope no one else has to go through this, this way with him.
