Paoli OBGYN vs. Chester County OBGYN

I am newly pregnant and just moved to the West Chester area.  I have heard mixed things about Chester County OBGYN and currently looking at other doctors in the area. Any doctor recommendations for Paoli OBGYN's or Great Valley OBGYN's? 

 

Also, is Paoli Hospital better than Chester County?

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Re: Paoli OBGYN vs. Chester County OBGYN

  • I don't know anything about Chester County OB/GYN but I can attest that I LOVE Paoli OBGYN (if you google it that is the group name). Dr. Anthopolous and his group are fantastic, I actually switched to them after a bad experience with Main Line OB/GYN (who also deliver at Paoli). Paoli Hospital has nice maternity "suites" and is pretty new, but I don't know anything about Chester County at all. Hope that is helpful!

  • I was born in this hospital and so has everyone in my family for like 30 yrs. Times have changed. The nursing staff,I feel anyway, is not very professional.
  • Paoli OBGYN is the way to go!!  I have been seeing Dr Anthopolous for years, he is GREAT!!  He delivered my son last year at Paoli, he also delivered my friends' babies as well.  On Christmas eve I had some brown spotting so I called him.  I had just been released from my RE, but hadn't seen Dr.A yet.  He told me to call the RE since they are open every day, and see if they would give me an U/S.  They did, all was fine, and I went about my day travelling to the poconos.  Dr.A called my house 4 times on Christmas Eve to check on me, and twice on Christmas Day! 
  • I was a former patient at Chesco, they were okay, but switching to Paoli after becomming pregnant was the best decision ever - The practice is SO well run and all of the doctors are amazing, Paoli also guaruntee's private rooms, where as at Chester county, you have to share, which was a huge deciding factor for me.

     

  • Love Paoli obgyn! All the dr's are awesome except for Dr Dunn which I don't think she is delivering..   Dr. Anthopolous delivered my little one in March! You can't go wrong with this group!  

  • I love Paoli OBGYN.  I see Dr. Gilbert, primarily.  I do not like Dr. Dun or Dr. Russino.  Paoli Hospital is nice and they have private rooms.

  • I love Paoli OBGYN too!  I do not like Dr. Russino (he is more interested in talking than listening).  Haven't seen Dr. Dunn, but I have liked everyone else (especially Dr. Gilbert and Dr. A)!  I liked the Chester County OBGYN practice, but wanted to deliver at Paoli (private rooms).  I tried Great Valley OBGYN and wasn't crazy about it- definitely like Paoli OBGY better!   Congrats and good luck to you!
  • Love Paoli obgyn. This is my first pregnancy and will deliver at Paoli and didn't even look into other hospitals because I liked what they have to offer. They are opening their new maternity ward this fall too! I've seen Dr. Hahn and Dr. Stuck and both women were very patient and answered all of my qts.

  • I've loved Chester County OBGYN so far! My husband and I are Lehigh alumni and we were delighted that three of the doctors on staff are, too:)
  • Awesome!  I graduated in '09 and my husband graduated in '07.  You can ask to see Dr. Mansfield, Dr. Slavish, or Dr. Akin - all Lehigh grads - go Mountain Hawks!  I use the Fern Hill office, but they might also report to other locations in Kennett Square or Downingtown.  Their bios are online:  https://www.chestercountyobgyn.com/medical_doctors.asp.
