Review titled Horrific Experience
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 23 March 2023
I had an appointment booked for 16/03 for a termination, they rang me the same morning & cancelled due to staffing. I had already arranged childcare & had to pay for this. After building myself up for the appointment as it’s a lot to deal with they rebooked it for 23/03, I then got a text the morning of my appointment again, to say it’s yet again been cancelled!!! That’s another childcare fee I need to pay, another knock on my mental health, another set back as I’d built myself up for this. It’s a painful experience and they’ve made it 100x worse!!!! They send me a text of a rebooked appointment for a weekend and in a clinic that’s 1hour&30 minutes away. When I got in touch I was only 5 weeks pregnant now I am over 9!! Horrendous and certainly wouldn’t Recommend as they mess you around!!!

Review titled Horrible treatment
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 25 April 2023
I would not recommend MSI and especially not this branch. I've had a horrible experience with them from the beginning. I wanted a medical termination for medical/health reasons and they have blocked it due to the health questionnaire not going through. That is fair enough, but they told me I have to come in and if all goes well after it's reviewed with a medical professional, I might still be able to get the medicine. The wait time for this appointment would have put this on the last day you can have a medical termination (9w6d). After coming to the practice for an appointment, there was no mention of the health questionnaire, the nurse did not do any of the tests I've been told will be done and even though I explained what I have been told, there was no chance of receiving treatment and I was told to book an appointment for surgical termination outside. This having been the last day, I had no choice to pursue help elsewhere. When I went to book the surgical appointment (which happens in the reception, after you're seen by a nurse), the earliest appointment offered to me was 3 weeks later (!!!). Legally, they have to give you an appointment within 2 weeks and whilst they have offered me one it was 14 days later and 76 miles away. Having pursued a termination for health reasons, the thought of being 'forced' through 3 more weeks was unbearable. I understand the service is busy, but if you can't fulfil your obligations and give proper care to people - turn them away so they can seek help at another service! Do not give them hope just to then delay the whole process by 5 weeks from start to finish. Because of all this, I eventually decided not to go ahead with them as I had very little trust especially considering my medical history was not reviewed in a way I was told. As I haven't done the procedure itself, I can't comment on that but I would be vary and book an appointment with other providers at least as a back up if not anything else.

Review titled Confusing
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 08 February 2023
I was referred by my GP as I am perimenopausal and was considering Mirena coil as an option. Made this clear during initial phone call and was booked in for an initial phone consult. The first appointment didn’t take place within the allotted time so I had to rebook. Another two weeks later when the call happened I was told MSI Choices do not deal with ‘women going through the change’. I was quite shocked that the euphemistic phrase ‘the change’ was used by a healthcare professional. I thought we’d moved on. The individual concerned had the best intentions I’m sure but I would have expected better from a service specialising in women’s reproductive health and am left feeling that I have had bad advice from my GP and from the initial interaction with MSI. This experience reinforces my fears and frustration about the failings in how women specific health is handled in this country when I had engaged proactively and in good faith. Please try to do better and understand that women do not cease to be women when their reproductive function diminishes or ceases. Overall, then, the current increase in discussion of the menopause clearly is not going far enough.

I honestly could not fault anything from my first appointment to my treatment. Every single member of staff treated me so well and made me feel so relaxed as I was so nervous at first. The surgeon and nurses were all so friendly and so kind to and really did look after me. I honestly can't thank them all enough for there tome patience and all round professionalism

Review titled Amazing nurses
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 12 January 2023
I'll start by saying that the wait times on the general phone lines are far too long, though I understand staff levels and busy periods can effect this However, the nurses I met in clinic were absolutely lovely, very friendly and caring. I also had to call the 24hour aftercare line and not only was able to talk to someone straight away, but the 2 nurses I spoke to during the night were absolute angels, they helped me through one of the most horrible experiences of my life and were so kind and reassuring. They also called me back to check up on me after. If it wasn't for them I would have probably ended up calling 999 so I am so grateful for their help

Review titled Unbelievably kind and understanding
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 16 December 2022
The whole experience the ladies gave me completely changed my mindset before I spoke to them I was worried, I was scared, embarrassed I felt all kinds of mixed emotions but knew I was certain I wanted an abortion. I felt like the ladies I spoke to really cared they were really understanding and didn't make me feel worse than I already did infact the complete opposite. They made me feel like I wasn't alone. I used the telemedicine service at home. I'm really grateful that I was able to do it at home as I live in a remote area. You can choose what time you do it and are comfortable in your own surroundings I felt strongly prepared by the team. Everything went as planned and no problems. Thank you for making one of the hardest things to deal with bearable. I honestly can not thank you enough.

Review titled Amazing service, a massive thank you
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I fell pregnant and couldn’t talk to anyone (family/boyfriend) I was very nervous of this and getting an abortion alone, from the beginning having the phone call to the appointment, the doctors / nurses have been nothing but kind and helpful, and made this experience not at all traumatic, she made sure I was comfortable and didn’t have to see the scan and explained everything perfectly. Thank you so much!
