12 People Who Are Still Haunted by Their Medical Visit

A trip to the doctor is supposed to bring peace of mind, but for some people, it turned into something disturbing. One woman visited a gynecologist who whispered, “Your husband is a lucky guy!” during her rushed exam. Later, she discovered he wasn’t even a real doctor—he had faked his credentials and dropped out of medical school. Thankfully, he was caught before he could do more harm.

Another woman, simply seeking help for headaches, was lectured by a GP about being 32 and “running out of time” to have kids. She hadn’t even mentioned children, yet the doctor pressured her to go home and start a family immediately. It was their first and last visit. Similarly, a 12-year-old girl endured a bizarre check-up where the doctor repeatedly asked if she was pregnant until her mother had to intervene.

Insensitive behavior wasn’t limited to inappropriate questions. After giving birth, one mother was devastated to leave the hospital without her baby, but her doctor dismissed her emotions as “postnatal depression.” He spoke only to her husband, even prescribing antidepressants without acknowledging her directly. Another patient with irregular cycles was brushed off, told she was “probably pregnant,” and forced to take a test she knew would be negative before being grudgingly given a referral for an ultrasound.

Even routine appointments could turn unsettling. One woman seeking allergy pills for her partner’s cat was handed a prescription—but then the doctor coldly remarked, “Maybe it will just die soon.” These stories show how careless words or unprofessional behavior from doctors can leave lasting scars, proving that not every frightening medical experience comes from illness itself, but from those entrusted to care for us.
