Dr. Robert Aagard, MD

Saw him at around 23 weeks pregnant; he seemed confused and didn't seem to know what was on my chart (first insisting I could have the glucose test at the practice, then realizing after I told him I was rh-negative that, no, I'd need to have it done at the hospital the same time as my RhoGAM shot). When I lamented having to go to the hospital for any of it, he remarked, "well, if you don't want to have to go to the hospital, you should find yourself a husband who isn't rh-positive." Um, excuse me?! I had issues aplenty with this practice, but this was the last straw.

I recently had a visit with Dr. Aagard for severe pain I was experiencing in my uterus, unexplainable cramping, stabbing pains in my ovaries and off cycle bleeding. He had a lack of concern about my pain and told me my uterus and ovaries felt fine, which to him i'm sure they did but knowing my body and what feels normal I know something is not right. He made me feel like I was wasting his time being there because I was just bleeding and shouldn't be concerned about it. To finish off my less than pleasant visit he told me that if I was tired of bleeding I (a 20 year old, single, broke college student) could 'just get pregnant' and that would stop my bleeding for nine months. This was less than professional of him, and I will not be going back.

He spent time explaining things and was very kind and compassionate!
