Anyone deliver at UIMC?

Due to some differences in opinion with my OB regarding my delivery options, I am being referred to UIMC for a second opinion and may end up delivering there.  I have my consult with one of the MFMs there on Wednesday at 37w5d.  Needless to say I am nervous about the possibility of switching so late as I am very familiar with the hospital I was going to deliver at (Delnor in Geneva), and it's very far from me so I don't really know anything about UIMC.  I'd appreciate any experience or opinions people have to share about the doctors, facilities, etc.  Thank you!

    I have doula'd there before and the moms had pretty good experiences. The three times I have been there one was a prolonged natural start and they gave her a lot more time to let things happen on their own then others would, they other was a LONG induction, but they really gave her a good shot and the last we showed up and the baby was born less then 30min later. They have a MUCH lower c/s then Delnor, which is great too.
