“It was more painful than unmedicated birth,” Jenny Provance told 2News, saying Broadbent assaulted her in a maternity hospital room. “It was so traumatizing that I was shaking.““I do believe I was the youngest ,” said the mother of seven. “I’ve seen other OB/GYN’s since then; I’ve never had any experience like that.”
