Opinion | Doctor bias in the delivery room hurts one group of women the most

Esther Choo, Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine, Oregon Health & Science University

The process began routinely enough. When she began laboring and her contractions were less than 5 minutes apart, she and her husband scooped up her pre-packed bag and drove to the hospital. Shortly after arriving, she was examined by an obstetrician and told she was still early in labor and that it would be several hours — potentially not until the next day — before she delivered.

A short while later, she told her husband, “I feel like pushing.” Her husband called urgently for the nurse, who came into the room and placed a fetal monitor across her abdomen. Seeing a concerning pattern in the baby’s heart rate, she paged the doctor. “The next thing I knew, I was being wheeled to the operating room for an emergency C-section.”

“I felt like he [the doctor] had me labeled as a ‘hysterical’ female. Especially since I’m Hispanic.”

THINK If its not one thing its another. People have a chip on their back a mile wide

THINK There is no such bias in the delivery room.

THINK Starting to seem like the folks who run the media want racial division. I wonder who they are?

THINK Well then those doctors aren’t ethical and shouldn’t be practicing as a matter of fact their racist!

THINK Люди со своими эмоциями для чего-то созданы,хотя в мире где 7милиардов особей эмоции часто ранят людей не похожих в данной популяции,но это эмоции и люди по земле распределены по группам подходящим их запросам чтобы не переживать излишне

THINK Opinion | Americans There must be some reason leaves out PlannedParenthood in this “opinion” 🤔🤔

THINK Low informed people allow themselves to be brainwashed by the FakeNews MSM

THINK 28 days in Taiwan ... no people with COVID-19 infection Taiwan can help

THINK I have a theory that if liberals stopped talking about racism so much, most of it would just disappear!

THINK Thanks, there has been many babies born and mothers wanted them to live but Dr stabbed the new born infant five times before killing it, laughing at MOM !!!

THINK I recommend amateuradam This Is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor.

THINK Things like this happen nationwide. However, when I was pregnant in Mexico the treatment was radically different. What does that say about us?

THINK What would Mother's Day even be without some baseless accusations against our diverse medical professional community, right?

THINK Beat that racist drum, NBC....

THINK It’s pretty racist to actually assumed that all doctors are white

THINK B.S. Where is the evidence of bias?

THINK False Narrative meant to divide Americans. WalkAway EnemyOfThePeople

THINK GOD SEES ALL...THIS IS JUST TERRIBLE...HAPPENS TO LOW-INCOME WHITE MOTHER'S TOO...

THINK Fakenews Cry harder, race baiters.
