Are you living right in Milford? We live in Milford and will be going to UMass Memorial in Worcester. Mainly because it has a NICU (just in case), and they have the best maternity center west of Boston. Newton-Wellesley was our second option - only about a half hour away. DH's boss delivered there and said it was wonderful. I don't think a lot of babies are delivered at Milford Hospital, so I recommend UMass or Newtown-Wellesley. If you decide on UMass, I highly recommend Dr. Narducci - she's fantastic. Lots of energy, lots of fun, and knows her stuff. She actually recommended her own personal pediatrician to us!
Dr. Jeng in Milford delivered me @ Milford. I loved Milford, very small loved the nurses, got lots of attn. They have the same C-sect. rates as N-W but people have a misconception that they're higher for whatever reason. Dr Jeng was great even though she wasn't my doc. Dr. Kerestzi was who is fine, nothing great, nothing awful really to say - kind of status quo. Heard good things about Dr. Mead, too. I had Dr. Coutinho who is at Milford and she's nice, a little abrupt and fast, but good, too...
We are moving Northborough but I met with my OB at NWH for the first time Friday and really liked her so I will probably will be making a little bit of a longer ride. Thanks so much for the suggestions, much appreciated!!!
I too use Dr. Jeng from Dr. MEads office. She's ok! I am using Milford Hosp bc I grew up w/ that hosp and know it inside and out and feel comfy there. The nurses from that floor seem very nice, we had them for our class. They have a nurse for every delivery-one per patient, they have tubs to relax in as well and a few extra ammenaties. I rec them!! Good luck! Take a tour!!
