Without my knowledge or consent, Pete Barnard was the first assistant to my surgeon for my hysterectomy at St. Mark's Hospital--I expected a female would be my female surgeon's first assistant. Further, he did not enter the OR until after I was sedated. In trying to come to terms with my sense of humiliation and violation I called Mr. Barnard's office and asked that he call me back. The receptionist informed me that he would not be returning my phone call. Note: I had to pay him independently for his "service." Perhaps you're fine with a male providing gynecological care, I simply am not. I genuinely believe that the least he could have done is talk to me. His refusal speaks volumes for the kind of care you will likely get from him.
