We're coming home to VA next month (yippee!) and I've decided that I am not going to go back to Perfectly Female, due to the changes there (though I was happy with them when they delivered DD). I'm not super picky - I don't want a lot of hand holding, and I am content with conventional medicine. But I have a history of pre-e and post-partum hypertension, so experience is really important. I also can't stand long waits for appointments. I have the Cauble & Rausch practice on my list. Do they sound like a good fit? Who else? Tell me why you love your OB that delivers at Reston Hospital!
My SIL went to Cauble & Raush... she saw Dr. Rausch and was happy. My SIL wanted to have a natural delivery, but, because of the baby's positioning and some weird lab work results, wound up having a C-section.
I have met Dr. Rausch (not as a patient...) and, she's really nice.
I just switched to Cauble & Rausch and love them. I had been going to the same OB since I was 20 years old and didn't want to change, but we moved and it just wouldn't have been convenient. I'm actually very happy that I made the switch. Good luck with your search and whoever you chose.
I went there for years, only saw Dr. Cauble and I loved her. When I got pg with DD1 I saw Dr Rausch and had such bad experiences over the first few visits (complications so this was all from weeks 4-6 of pg) that I left and went to PF, which I have since left. I still liked Dr Cauble and I think that Dr Patel from PF has since joined Cauble and Rausch. My new practice delivers at Loudoun.

Good Luck!
