obgyn help??

i live in Manchester and went to Elliot hospital ER thinking i had the flu silly me i was 8 weeks and now i'm at 12 weeks with my first baby :) ive been calling and waiting for the ob at the Elliot doctors park for a prenatal checkup but they have yet to get back to me it seems like they are not very reliable is there any one who could recommend a good ob? i am so scared of having the baby and i would really like a doctor that will listen to my needs and concerns and have a personal relationship the daddy says if i'm going to receive good care throughout the pregnancy and giving birth i should be going to Boston ..any suggestions??

  • If you don't mind going to Nashua I'd suggest Generations OBGYN.  They are affiliated with SNHMC.  It's where I went I loved Dr. McHugh.  When I was in the hospital she listened to me and let me try to go into labor without intervention for as long as it was safe.  My water broke, but contractions never started.

  • Why would he say Boston? I know Boston has great hospitals but are you willing to drive there every other week come your third trimester? How about if you go into labor during rush hour and it's going to take hours to get to your ob?there are many obgyn offices more local than that. I would suggest calling around and finding an office that will start seeing you soon.

  • Dr. Montanarella and her practice has a great reputation. Every staff member is personable and efficient. I highly recommend them.

  • I would recommend Partners for Women's Health in Exeter.  I love it there.  They have both Doctor's and midwives available at the practice.  Here is the link.

  • I went to Bedford Commons ObGyn. They have offices in Derry and Bedford. They have multiple doctors in the practice and are on a rotation for the hospital. They have you meet them all so that unlike a small practice you'll at least have met the doctor that could potentially deliver your baby. They deliver at the Elliot and I had an amazing experience with them!! All the nurses in labor and delivery as well as maternity were so helpful. Even when I was thinking of steering off my birth plan they kept me on track and encouraged me to push through. I hope this is of some help!
  • Second Bedford Commons, I had a high risk pregnancy with twins and they were GREAT.

  • I recommend Dartmouth Hitchcock. The OBGyn team has offices in Manchester and Bedford. I personally have worked with Dr. Colleen Barber and Beverly Kennedy, APRN. They hadve midwives, nurses and doctors as part of their team. They deliver at CMC. From a good friend's personal experience and word-of-mouth from others, I'd avoid the Elliot. D-H no longer works with the Elliot.

     D-H will get you in ASAP concidering how far along you are. Their appt schedule starts with an intake at 7-8 wks (interview w/ health history) and then an exam at 8-9 wks. I'm sure they'll work with you to catch up.  (603) 695-2900

    I went to them as well and LOVED them. I had Dr. Kanter, but Dr. McHugh checked in on me when I was in the hospital since Kanter was on vacation and she was fantastic as well.

  • I'm going to Manchester obtrestical associates on tarry town road! I am also in Manchester :) personally I like how it's close to the hospital
  • I am currently looking for an OBGYN too.  I am 5 weeks via IVF and my IVF dr will be releasing me soon to my OB.  I used to go to Dartmouth Hitchcock in Nashua, but when I moved to Goffstown, I'd rather be closer to Elliot or CMC.

    Thanks for your recommendations and thanks for posting this question!!
