I'd like to share the horrible experience that I had at the hands of Dr Lubega who has a private practice at Netcare Akasia hospital in Pretoria North. My first meeting with him was in mid-January this year. I had fibroids and I was referred to him by my GP. He examined me and told me I had multiple fibroids. He recommended that I remove them via surgery especially since I dont have children yet at 35. I was very scared as this would be my very first major surgery. He was very pleasant upon our first meeting which made me feel at ease and I agreed to be operated by him on the 20th of January 2020. My Gp assured me that he was a good surgeon and when I met him I decided to put my trust in him as a Dr who was competent. Little did I know that the pleasant re-reassuring Dr would change his attitude towards me very quickly. I was operated on on Monday and i think he checked on me on Tuesday, I had so many questions he hardly checked my wound or asked how I was,he didn't even look me in the eye, I had to ask nurses about my condition and the physical pain I was in, the nurses did his job. The nurses tried their best to explain what was happening to my body and what to expect and how I should cope when I get discharged and go home. He would come to my bed for a few seconds speak to the nurse and not even ask how I'm doing.He didn't care to bother about the aftermath of my operation and how it was affecting me. I was discharged on Wednesday and told to see him after a week. Even then he was impersonal and cared very little. I found his attitude to be arrogant, impersonal and downright cruel. I was so concerned about my operation that after a month I went back home to my original Gynea to double check if my operation was done right. Deep down I wish I had gone back home in PMB to be operated by my original gynea as I have doubts that my operation was done right due to Dr Lubega's arrogant attitude. I feel that he just wanted money and didn't care about my overall well-being. I'm almost 3 months post op and I regret being operated by Dr Lubega. Even my Hystology report was sent to my GP to be given to me, I would have thought such a report would be given to me by him since he's the one that operated me. I want to warn the women of South Africa about this Gyneacologist, he does not care about your overall well-being he is impersonal, arrogant and rude. I can only hope to God that my operation went well. I dont know for now I can only pray it did as I have not recovered and it would be useless to see him about it as he doesn't care.
