I love our pediatrician but man, everytime I go to this doc, the nurses are so rude! I just hate rude medical staff... you go into that profession, you better have some major patience and positive energy/ communication skills in order to effectively treat patients! I'm in a medical profession and no matter how shitty my day is, I don't take it out on my patients.

This nurse today calls out my name and I didn't hear her because she quickly and didn't say it loud enough and then comes and points her finger at me and says our name again and rudely adds that we don't have time to waste looking for patients then she gets busy talking to another nurse while I stand there waiting.. and points to a room without looking so I go in there and she comes in and says "I didn't tell you to go in here?!" I'm like well you pointed so then she takes me to another rooms and mumbles quickly to undress my little guy and other stuff that I couldn't make out. So I started undressing him and she is typing away and then starts rudely saying "hellloooo, hellooo?!" Apparently she asked me a question I didn't hear and then starts rudely making exaggerated hand gestures like you would do if you didn't speak the language because she thought I didn't understand English or something. I was fuming... was about to tell her off but she stormed out too quickly.

Oh and also I'm so surprised the doc lets them wear regular clothes... these nurses have like tight jeans on and black boots :-/ and fancy tops. I would never pick to wear that in a pediatricians office. (In the wrong profession 😡)

Would you have reported her? I should have I feel like... it honestly makes me want to change docs

Update: thank you everyone who left some kind words! I have decided to switch docs... in general I feel the office was overwhelmed and the more I thought about it the doc always seemed rushed :-( I don't want that for my son. I really think the healthcare system has to improve in many countries... puts so much pressure on the medical staff. Tho this nurse def was out of line and I will be calling them to let them know my reasons for switching doctor offices. To those who are nurses, thank you for all the hard work you do and I didn't mean to target you with this post. That one nurse will not make me forget all the wonderful compassionate nurses I've met thru my own personal experiences and at work! Truly are saints.

Thanks again ladies!
