OB Help

edited July 2021 in Ohio Babies

I'm leaving my OB (I'm 5 mos pregnant) and would like to find someone rather quickly.  I would prefer an OB who understands that there are women who know their bodies (pregnant or not) and who will not dismiss their ills as "you didn't eat enough food" or "you're sleeping on your back" and their staff understands that as well.  (Actually, I'm really not leaving because of the doctor, but because of her nurse.)  I'd also like someone who, if they're referring you to a specialist, would have the courtesy to call you first and explain why, rather than just having the specialist call you to set up an appointment.

 Any suggestions?  I live downtown, but I have plans to deliver at St. Ann's already and that's where my ultrasound appointments are, etc.  I already have my monthly appt scheduled with the nurse practitioner for tomorrow and an ultrasound scheduled for next week, so my next visit wouldn't be until mid-January, I think.

 All suggestions/thoughts are welcome.

 Thanks,

Keely

    If you have your heart set on delivering at St. Ann's I would call them and ask if they have a list of doctors that deliver there. Sorry that you are going through this... I would be really upset if I had to switch doctors at 5 months.

    That's exactly what I did!  And, they were able to give me a list of offices that took my insurance.  I ended up finding a practice I think might fit more with my philosophy and I'm meeting with them Monday.

    I delivered at St Ann's too.

    My OB is at Polaris and her name is Carol Jenkins. A very nice and patient lady and supported all my plans (natural, no drugs). I think she is great. And all the nurses at the office are super nice too.

    Dr. Parnes is up in Westerville...Raymond, Parnes and Aurora (I think that's the last one).  I LOVE Dr. Parnes....he delivers at St. Ann's.  Number is 890-1914 if you want it.
