D.C. Area Babies

1st post on this board

Hello!  This is my first pregnancy and I'm due on Oct. 4th.  I'm usually in the October 2010 & 1st Trimester boards.  

Currently my OB/Gyn is located in Falls Church and we were planning on delivering at Fairfax Hospital however I recently found out my office will be moving to the Bristow area.  I definitely don't want to travel from Bristow to Falls Church for my appointments and when the baby comes I don't want to be stuck in the car for longer than 30 min.  

Does anyone have any recs for an OB/Gyn that delivers at INOVA Fair Oaks?  

TIA!

  • I have Kaiser, so I'm no help in the rec department, but I delivered at Fair Oaks and have no complaints.  Hope you find someone!  And good luck with your pregnancy!!

  • I highly recommend Fair Ridge.  Dr. Hodges and Shin are awesome,  Its hard to get in for routine stuff  - but i think you can get in if you are preggo.  They deliver at Fair Oaks...which is really nice.

  • I love my practice - Greenbriar OBGyn - Located in Fairfax very close to Inova fair oaks.

    They dont share call with another practice so you know it's one of the 3 of them that will deliver your LO..

    Dr Wertheim delivered my DS, Dr Gopal delivered my DD, and Dr Pickford did my ectopic surgery, so I've had quite a bit of experience with all 3 :)

  • Thank you so much for your recommendations everyone!  I will give them a call first thing tomorrow morning!

  • It sounds like Greenbriar has a lot of fans!  I hope I can get an appointment with them.  It would be a perfect location for me.

    Sweet!  We used to live in Bristow.  We loved it out there. I can't believe how much it's blowing up.  We're actually out there every weekend since we have a lot of relatives out that way.

  • Hey.  This is my first also and I am due in October also- Oct 20th.  I know you have already had a lot of recommendations, but I found Dr. Forrest from Terry Allens office and I have already loved my first few appointments with him.  They deliver at iNova.  Here is their website.  https://www.drsallenandforrest.com/index.htm

    Looking forward to being on this journey with you. 

  • Welcome!  I also just joined Greenbriar and had my routine pap there last year.  I like that the office is small and there are only 3 doctors.  I previously went to Georgetown Medical (we used to live in Arlington) and it was such chaos there all the time.  I hope you can get an appointment at GB.
  • no recs but congrats and welcome!
  • Oh wow!  Congratulations!  Thanks for the rec!

  • I know what you mean.  My last doctor had 5 doctors in their practice.  Having only 3 doctors is a little more comforting.  I was able to call this morning and get an appointment!
