I am not thrilled with my current doctor (Neelam Thacker in Medford, mother is Vasant Thacker and is phasing out of the practice).
During my first blood tests to confirm the pregnancy, I had to go to another facility to have my blood drawn, and the doctor had ordered too many vials in one sitting, and her office was closed while I was at the lab.
I just had my NT scan yesterday, and she sent me to North Reading, which was fine, but they don't have a lab there (and doc didn't tell me), so I had to go to yet another location to have my blood drawn.
She's only two years out of med school, which I realize can have its benefits, but I am only encountering the drawbacks of her inexperience at this point.
I would prefer a female, but if anyone highly recommends their male OB, I think I'd be willing to give it a shot. Winchester Hospital does seem like a good fit for us though, so I'd like to stay there. My previous doctor is in Newton, which is just a little too far from Medford - especially being due around July 4th, I'd hate to get stuck in holiday traffic in labor!
Any assistance is much appreciated!!
