This doctor was called in to give my daughter an epidural to ease her pregnancy. He hurt my daughter. He didn't put her at ease at all. He was literally jabbing the needle in my daughter back. And he stated to the nurse that it wasn't working. I then told him that if it wasn't working, then don't try to force it in her. She was jumping from the pain and crying so hard from him jabbing her. All he was saying to her was, you can't do that. He didn't stop until he put tap on her. I instantly went to the front desk and reported him to my daughter's midwife. She then reported him to the shift supervisor. I'm in the process of him to patient relation.
