Review for MUDr. Iva Hochmutová
Review for MUDr. Iva Hochmutová, EUC Prague 10
This was an awful experience, I highly recommend you find someone else.
I had the worst experience with MUDr. Iva Hochmutová. As a foreigner, I heard that we might be treated as we're "below" but I didn't expect it from a doctor!! This was my very first gynecologist appointment during my first pregnancy, and instead of care, I was met with disrespect.
From the very beginning, the receptionist treated my husband and me as if we were unwelcome for simply showing up (and not speaking Czech, even though I asked on the phone and it was fine). In the office, Dr. Hochmutová looked us up and down, forced my husband to leave even though I wanted him there, and kept lecturing me about "the rules in the Czech Republic." She also repeatedly told me, “you can find another doctor after this session,” making it clear that I wasn’t wanted.
She mocked me for not speaking Czech, asking sarcastically, “but you are in the Czech Republic, you know that, right?” She even laughed at me in Czech TWICE, refused to translate when I asked, and kept repeating, “here in the Czech Republic,” as if I was beneath her.
Because I couldn’t trust her, I refused any internal exam and accepted only the ultrasound. The entire appointment felt judgmental, humiliating, and demeaning, like I wasn’t worthy of basic respect because I’m a foreigner. In the end, she didn’t recommend any vitamins, didn’t suggest any tests, and offered nothing of value for my pregnancy.
This was an awful experience, I highly recommend you find someone else.
