We just had our offer on a house accepted and it looks like we'll be moving about 15-20 min from New Brunswick this summer. I am due in mid-Sept, so while I know I shouldn't officially switch docs until after inspection, etc and we know for sure this house is going to work out for us, I want to start calling OBs in that area to see who is accepting new patients.
Any recommendations on OBs that deliver at Robert Wood Johnson? Or, conversely, if you have strong opinions on not using RWJ, where do you recommend and why?
I am a FTM that doesn't have any out of the ordinary birth plan. I want the hospital delivery at a place where I know there's good care if anything happens to either me or the baby. Private room would be ideal.
Re: OB rec that delivers at Robert Wood Johnson?
same hospital and OBGYN group.....love it
I'm a first time mom too! Congratulations!
I too live 20 mins from New Brunswick, and I will be delivering at St. Peter's and my OB is Dr. Bharucha (East Brunswick and Somerset). I'm very happy with both choices, and I actually switched from Brunswick Hills before I got pregnant because I wanted a smaller practice. The first hospital choice of my OB was St. Peter's and I knew that's where I wanted to deliver, but I think he may also deliver at RWJ. We toured St. Peter's two weeks ago and I was very happy with the care that both I and baby will receive, especially if something unexpected happens.
Good luck with your choice!
They do have evening hours.
