Anyone have a recommendation? My OB likes one from Johns Hopkins but thats an hour away. I'd prefer Christiana because of the location but they tend to vary in their recommendations.  thanks!

    Hi,

    Sorry I don't have an opinion, but I'm curious who your OB likes at Hopkins?  I live in Baltimore and will be high-risk with my next PG too.

    TIA!

    I'll let you know when I go for my next appointment. Apparently they have a great consultative relationship and she does teleconferencing in our office. It's a woman.

    I had to see the high risk OB at Hopkins when I was diagnosed with GD. I hated it!! I begged my regular OB to please take me back and promised I would be really really good with my diet so I didn't have to go back there. I had to go to bayview for the appointment which was a clusterf*ck. They were like an hour late for my appt. The nurse finally took me back for my weight and BP and wouldn't address any of my questions (I had lost 5 pounds in less than a week and was in my last trimester so I was concerned. Then they take me to another room where I wait forever again. Then 2 med students come in and ask a bunch of questions. Then I wait again for the dr to come in who had horrible bedside manner, dismissed my questions again, and basically told me I was a bad mother for having Sugar free ice cream for dessert one night. I left that appointment in tears and was on the phone with my regular OB the next day.

    Firedancer-do you remember that doctor's name? I think I'm going to check out Christiana first. My OB said he's going to email the one at Hopkins and let me know what she thinks at my ultrasound in 3 weeks.
