I was referred to her through my primary physician. I had pelvic pain and trouble urinating. They did a urinalysis and said that I had blood in my urine. She did a cystoscopy and found that I have a condition called urine retention. I had never heard of it. I asked: Q: is this life threatening A: No. Q: can it be treated surgically A: maybe, sometimes, probably not with you. Q: Is it because I have diabetes? A: Maybe Q is there medicine? A: Not really. Think of it as a prostrate problem. The bladder is thickening and it is hard to get the pee out. (I am a woman) Q: Is this why I am uncomfortable A: Yes. I think you have had it a while. I do not think this is an infection. Q WIll I just be uncomfortable going forward? A: Yes, but come to me if it gets worse. So I left, uncomfortable with no course of treatment. Within a few months, it got worse. I tried to reach her by phone 3 times in one day and was on hold for 1 hr. total. I ended up seeing my primary care physician and got put on some meds. It got worse over weekend. Urine had backed up into my kidneys. I went to ER and was catheterized and admitted to the hospital for sepsis. I received a uro dynamic test after I was discharged and taught how to self catheterize. Unpleasant but easy and manages the condition. Had Dr. Dabney given me a test, taught me about catheterization, I could have avoided sepsis, hospitalization, and enlarged bladder that won't shrink. She did not cause the retention but she did not treat it. I am furious with her. read more
