Hi everyone,
I am new to the area and have NO ONE to turn to to ask about this. If anyone has been to, knows of, or can recommend a female OB-GYN in this area, I would be soo grateful. Carrollton and Lewisville are also pretty close by so for a doctor that's worth it, I'm willing to go there too! Thanks!

Ditto! Its not too much further of a drive and its worth it!! Dr. Flowers is the best.

We're at Tuscan OBGYN in Las Colinas also (I have a male Dr, Dr Hoffman, who has come highly recommended by several friends!), I just thought I'd pipe up since I saw someone mention them above.
I LOVE Dr H, and I love Tuscan's staff. The wait for appointments has always been very short (like 5 minutes or less usually!) I've been with them through Clomid, and now 3 months of pregnancy. (And I have at least one friend who delivered two babies with him, neither of them C Sections)
I go to Tuscan OBGYN as well; I see Dr. Ramos. My 2 of my good friends at work had their babies with Dr. R and have nothing but good things to say, and I've loved the care I've received thus far!
I love the staff as well! Very friendly and courteous.

Well, my appointment did not go well (most likely miscarrying soon) but Dr. Staud and all of the staff have been wonderful so far. Thursday I had an appointment and an ultrasound and she and everyone was great about explaining what was going on and what I needed to look for and what I should do over the weekend to keep the pregnancy viable if there was a chance that I just ovulated WAY late. I got the results of my 2nd blood test same day yesterday which is when I learned that it's not looking good. Tomorrow I have a 3rd blood draw in the morning and another ultrasound and appt with Staud in the afternoon... I'm guessing to confirm that I am going to miscarry and see where we go from there.

I'm really sorry that things are not going well. I thought I'd also chime in in case you need a back up. I saw Dr. Kristin Carmichael with Medical Clinic of North Texas and delivered at LCMC (I didn't have to have a c-section). She was wonderful throughout my pregnancy and was especially awesome during the last several stressful weeks of my pregnancy when we discovered I have a blood disorder that affects delivery. She did induce, but it was due to my blood issues and medication they had to put me on.
Good luck and best wishes to you.
