That sort of comment can be taken to politicians
and the media if desired: that a professional would use blackmail and/or defamatory
comments to sway your choice. It
adds to Jenny Gambles comments about OB’s defaming midwives and midwifery
and the shit you would get in if you said it about their profession! You could even write to the college of
OBs to complain although there would be little they would/could do nut the
state and federal health ministers would not be able to ignore it. Not what you want to do when you’re
pregnant but if you do act it might stop it from happening to someone else.
Cheers
Jo

There are a couple more
concerns Joh. Is your obstetrician being anticompetitive or even
defamatory? Just worth thinking about.
Warm regards,
Robyn

Dear Joh,
Who is this Ob working for? Is he keeping your best interests at heart? Is he
breaking his Hippocratic Oath (if he still makes such a thing?) that states he
has "To keep the good of the patient as
the highest priority?"
I think it's time to get another obstetrician, if you need one.
Best of luck with your birth,
David

I agree, after
just being told by the obs that he would not see me if I continued with my
independant midwife - to protect himself from potential litigation - I needed
to read this and be reaffirmed that I am in control! Thanks
