When my doctor couldn’t save my pregnancy, he did the next best thing | Ranjana Srivastava

In my darkest hour, my obstetrician used his moral compass in a way that has shaped my entire approach to patient care

Nearing the end of his life, a patient tells me, If you should ever need it, I hope your doctor is as good to you as you have been to me."

It is an unusual benediction.

Dear Ranjana,

I trust you are coping okay after the very sad events of recent weeks.

It must have been so hard.

After all the initial good news, to walk into our scan room and be hit with all my news must have been unbelievably tough.

Hopefully, we will meet again under more positive circumstances.
