Is anyone a patient of Dr. Dryden?

I really need a rec from one of her patients to see her.  I used Dr. Zepeda with my last pregnancy, but (aside from the fact that I'd like to try a VBAC,) it looks like he'll be on his annual vacation during the time I'll need him to do my CS.  I heard Dr. D was PHENOMENAL, but she only accepts patients via her current patients' recommendations.  Any help?  I'd be glad to meet, email, whatever you want to do to qualify me for a rec.  Thanks for considering me.

    I am technically a patient of Dr. Dryden's though I don't see her regularly so I don't know that I could "recommend" you.  I have no idea how that works. 

    I was a patient of the midwives but got lucky and Dr. Dryden was the OB on-call when I was in labor and she did my c-section so I became her patient by default.  She is absolutely fabulous though, I loved her and I hope to VBAC w/ her next go-round.

    Just in case you need a plan B... there are VBAC doctors in town (though not many!!). Hector del Castillo is who did my vbac. Juan Franco is the other one I hear doing a lot of successful vbacs.

    Have you talked to Dr Z about it?  They should be able to get you in to see her

    I just started seeing Dr. Bobo and didn't know this was even an option. For some reason, I thought the entire practice was not doing VBAC's.

    I think I will bring it up at my appt Mon. Not sure if I would be considered a candidate but definately worth exploring my options.

    Can you let us know what Dr. Bobo has to say about it?  I'm a patient of hers and I've heard really conflicting information about her and her practice's policies on VBAC.  It'd be great to get the current info from Dr. Bobo.  Thanks!

    It may also depend on the new TCH maternity hospital policies once the practice moves.  Although they say that they will continue to deliver pts at Methodist, I am thinking it will be a very small percentage.
