Anyone else had experience of Early Pregnancy Unit at Princess Royal in Glasgow. . I have been trying to phone them for 2 days straight with it constantly ringing out! Am seriously considering getting in my car & driving there to point out the fact that they don't answer their phone!! This is doing wonders to keep my stress levels down!!! Sorry, just needed a rant. Am now going to try phoning them again for the 25th time so far this morning. . . . .

Not in Glasgow, but my local EPU was accidentally giving out wrong number! Horrible when feeling vulnerable. Have you tried calling the main switchboard?

Not booked in there but had a look at Association of Early Pregnancy Units website and just wanted to check that 0141 2115317 this was number you were trying in case you had the wrong one?

hi, I hope you have managed to get through to the unit by now.

I just wanted to note my experience of the EPU at the Princess Royal in Glasgow as they were absolutely fantastic earlier this year when I miscarried. I was referred from my usual maternity hospital to them and had an overnight stay and a few follow up appt's. The nurses were lovely and very understanding.

I hope everything works out well for you.

hi i can't really help cuz i'm at the southern; they're EPAU number is often busy esp first thing in the morning. Ive had to phone them a few times and they've been fantastic. I hope you get through to prmh epau soon. Have you definitely got the right number? It mightbe worth asking switchboard to put you through to one of the gynae wards (0141 211 5350 or 0141 211 5281) and asking them for the number in case switchboard have i wrong.
Good luck

The best time to ring is 8am-8.30... took me 10minutes to get through to mine epu:)

Hi, thanks all for answers! Phoned the switchboard again & they transferred me to the day unit who put me through on a different number . . Number is 0141 211 5323 for anyone else who needs it. Scan arranged for tomorrow so fingers crossed!
