My Gynecologist - Karl And Natalie Leibensperger
Misdiagnosed my PREGNANCY! Totally incompetent & caused me expense & heartache!

I went to My Gynecologist in September for severe breast pain, leukorrhea, lack of menses, and a few other problems. The practitioner who examined me took one incredibly fast look and said, "You have a raging yeast infection, " after which, she gave me a prescription for Diflucan. I wondered if I might be pregnant but I figured that being a gyn office, they'd automatically do a test if I'd gone in with complaints of my symptoms. After I started taking the Diflucan, my symptoms did not improve. I decided I'd better take a home pregnancy test, which turned out positive. I took a second one to be sure. I read the documentation that accompanied the Diflucan and read that it DOES and WILL cause fetal harm!!! Because of that moron practitioner, I had to have an abortion, which cost me $445 and a lifetime of guilt and heartbreak. I had to take an innocent little life because of HER stupid, uneducated mistake!!! I found out later I could sue for her mistake but the attorney said she couldn't help because I had no medical evidence proving that the fetus was damaged or hurt in any way. I said I wasn't going to take the chance of having a damaged or sick fetus so I spared it and myself the pain of illness immediately and had the abortion. I returned to that office and my boyfriend and I proclaimed loudly to the office staff that I did NOT have a yeast infection but was in fact PREGNANT and that the nurse failed to have me tested. I wanted everyone in the waiting room to be shocked by their incompetence. I felt that My Gynecologist should have reimbursed me for my examination and medication costs as well as the cost of the abortion. I believe I was informed back in college (in Florida) that if a female of reproductive age has missed her menstrual period for an extended time, no matter what the reason, it's supposedly Florida state law to give her a pregnancy test before prescribing or administering medication. I don't know if the law has changed since then (around 1994), but there was NO REASON I should not have been given a simple pregnancy test, which would have solved everything immediately. I am hurt and infuriated and thought everyone should know, INCLUDING the staff and doctors of My Gynecologist. I still have to drive by that office nearly every day, so the psychological and emotional pain don't have a chance to subside. That nurse and the staff have no idea of the grief and expense they caused me. I'm now at God's mercy with Him knowing that I murdered an innocent life, and may He forgive me and know that it wasn't my fault. I hope women will seriously consider my experience before ever going to those people and save themselves a lifetime of guilt and heartache. Thank you for hearing my story.
