Cervical stitch

I am nearly 10 weeks pregnant with my 3rd and will need a cervical suture (shirodkar stitch) placed as I did with my 2nd. I lost my 1st baby at 21 weeks. However, the private consultant has now retired and has referred me to another, Ellis Downes. Has anyone had treatment with him and how was it? Also, has anyone actually had complications from having the stitch? Many thanks!

Hi Harveryrabbit, I know this was posted long back but just wanted to know if you got to meet Doctor Ellis Downs and if you had the suture put in? Asking because my consultant has suggested his name for the same. I am currently 12 weeks pregnant and last year lost my baby girl at 21 weeks because of suspected cervical incompetence. Any information would be very much appreciated.
