I could have died..

I rushed to the hospital due to very terrible stomach ulcers, when I got to the reception I told them what the problem was and I also happen to mention that I am 21 weeks pregnant. I was immediately asked if I had a gynea booked with them and I answered no since I was going to the clinic for my anti natal classes, I was immediately told by the 2 rrude ladies at the reception that they can't assist me if I do not have a gynea. I asked them if I could atleat see a Dr to atleast stabilize the acid levels since I could barely stand up straight due to the severe pain and they refused and assisted that I take the lift and go 11 floor up to find a gynea, mind you gynea see patients on appointments, there was non at the time, the one lady at the gynea office tried contacting them and they were not available, I had to return home or go to a public hospital, the one lady even mentioned that they can call an ambulance for me to go to Bara. I am on medical aid, I had an emergency and I couldn't be assisted cos I didn't have an existing gynea, such madness... I decided to go see my GP and he have me a few meds a referred me to a gynea at another hospital. The service was just terrible, I could have died because I was pregnant without a gynea.
