How would you change your ObGyn?

I want to change my OBGyn, but I feel like since I am established with the one I have now I dunno if I should. When I first started to go to her, she was a private practice and had all the time in the world to spend with you. Now she joined a HUGE new practice and it seems like she doesnt have time to see anyone anymore, I see her P.A. and not her now. She delivered my first child, and now I am pregnant again and I want someone that has more time to spend with me..Any suggestions?

  • I would change. During your pregnancy and delivery you are going to want to be with a doctor who knows you and knows what you want and respects those wishes.

  • I just recently changed mine due to a pregnancy. I did not like the pre-natal care or delivery I had with my last OB/GYN.
    I asked some other local mom's I know for recommendations for a good mid-wife. After I got their recommendations I called each of the offices to ask some questions about their positions on things that mattered to me. I finally selected a mid-wife group that came highly recommended that seemed to pregnancy and childbirth in a manner that agrees with my own.

  • If you're having a healthy pregnancy, I highly recommend a midwife.
    (OBs average 7 minutes with a patient in prenatal appointments compared to 30 minutes with the midwife!)

    You should do whatever makes you feel happiest. It's not likely to get any better at the current practice...
