I was wondering if I have a case. When I was pregnant with my now 4 month old daughter my Obstetricians sent me to Magees Women's Hospital on 3 different occassions. The first time was to clear me of being high risk because of previous miscarriages in which they did. I began vomitting daily on all solids and liquids I consumed during my 5th month of pregnancy and my OB sent me to a specialist at Magee's. The specialist did no tests and only talked to me. He stated that women in concentration camps only consumed 400 calories a day and had healthy babies. The 3rd time I was sent to Magee's I was 29 weeks pregnant and my OB told me that my placenta was insufficient for my baby and that Magee's would admit me until I was further along or if I had to deliver they were equipped to handle premature babies. When I went to Magee's they made me feel as if I was inconveniencing them. They had me wait in a waiting room for over an hour before sending me to ultrasound. The ultrasound staff were rude saying they were full and I would have to wait until they could squeeze me in. I spent 3 hours waiting and worrying before I was taken back. I was then told my baby was a few weeks behind in development but not to worry. They sent me home. My OB was furious. It was later learned they had not performed the requested tests on me. I had my daughter by emergency c-section at 34 weeks. She was life flighted and hospitalized with numerous problems. I was recently told by a doctor that her heart defects should have been detected in an ultrasound and that some of her conditions are caused by her prematurity. Do I have grounds to sue Magee's.
