@naturegirl5 the doctor who tried to do this was, from what I understood, an ultrasound specialist experienced in performing hysteroscopies, not a gynaecologist. She said she would recommend that my GP refer me to a gynocologist who can do my hysteroscopy in a hospital. I told her that the reason I was referred here is because my doctor couldn’t find a hospital that did this procedure in a hospital as hospitals don’t do them now. Even my next door neighbour had a uterine biopsy done in her gynecologist’s office. She too went through a lot of pain because anesthesia is not allowed in office settings.

Hospitals are so backlogged in Canada - especially Ontario - procedures that once were done only in hospitals are now being performed in clinics and doctors’ offices.
