High-risk OBGYN in Montgomery County

islelily · July 2011

A girlfriend of mine is looking for an OBGYN that has dealt with cervix complications. The office doesn't necessarily have to be high-risk, but she wants a doctor who will treat her condition seriously. Do any of you have a good recommendation for an office in montgomery county? I really liked my OBGYN, but am unsure if they would take on her case.

Thanks!

I was seen at Capital Women's Care Rockville office. I was high risk with DS2 because I had DS1 at 32 weeks--pPROM unexplained. Dr. Alam and Dr. Apgar took things very seriously. Some other docs in the practice weren't as concerned/proactive but I just told them what I wanted. I did progesterone shots every week (at home) and I went in every 2 weeks and got a cervical check at each visit to make sure it was staying long and closed. I also had a few additional ultrasounds. I felt they took good care of me, although I think you always have to advocate for yourself. Anytime I mentioned feeling off, Dr. Alam always responded quickly and checked me out. I made it to almost 37 weeks with DS2 which is great!

I went to Greater Washington Maternal Fetal for a few weeks at the end of my pregnancy to monitor DD's arrythmia. I have nothing but the highest praise for Dr. Pinckert and Dr. Manley (they were the only two I saw there) for talking me down off a ledge my first visit and keeping me at ease the subsequent visits.

They have 2 offices I believe, I used the one at the building attached to Holy Cross hospital.

I was high risk at the end of my pregnancy (PIH and GD), and Capital Women's Care in Silver Spring (on Georgia) took great care of me. I saw Dr. Tyau and Dr. Lizardo weekly during the last 6 weeks of my pregnancy, and they took things very seriously (maybe even more seriously than I did). I got weekly BPPs, and was monitored very closely. I ended up on modified bedrest at home from 32-35 weeks and delivered at 36 weeks.

I went to Greater Washington Maternal Fetal for my NT Scan and really liked the practice.

Greater Washington Maternal is great! but i think you have to be referred to them by your existing OB/GYN.

I have been seeing Dr. Gschwend at Capital Women's Care near Montgomery Mall for years and he dealt with all my pregnancy complications. He is very upfront and honest (and not everyone likes how direct he is) but I also like Dr. Kleinerman in the same office. She is more warm and talkative. I recommend both of them to people all the time and I feel like they both took the time to explain everything. I was referred to Greater Washington Fetal and Maternal as well and second the rec of Dr. Pinkert!
