Based off of several referrals from friends we had selected Dr. Wheeler as our OB. Two days before our first appointment we got a call from his office saying he was closing his practice. We were so bummed. I am now 8 1/2 weeks along and looking for a new OB. Preferrably one in the Newport Beach area that delivers at Hoag. Any recommendations?

Hi Steph,
The other doctor that used to be in Dr. Wheeler's office is Dr. Candace Howe - she just moved last month next door in the other suites (bc Dr. Wheeler is no longer in practice). You need to look her up, I absolutely love her and you will not find anyone with better bedside manners and attention to you and your needs. My first visit with her lasted almost an hour and she allocated all that time to me...she's amazing!!!! Highly recommended and an absolute sweetheart.
You will not be disappointed
