I'm having my second elective section in november, first one went fine. Had appointment at clinic today, was seen by an SHO. I asked when I would meet the person who will conduct my section, she said, 'not until the day'. I have a few medical conditions that mean surgery is complicated for me... essentially,i bleed a lot and wounds dont heal well. I said that this is why i want to meet the person performing it so i could discuss my worries. They are insisting this is not possible, and suggest that i ask my consultant if she is willing to conduct it, when i see her in 8 weeks time.
Is it usual to meet/know the person who conducts a section?.. I knew weeks in advance last time (different hospital).
Its making me really anxious.
