    I am also looking for OB recs in LA, ideally Santa Monica/Century City/Beverly Hills.

    Small world!  I was referred to Dr. Cousineau in college and ended up seeing Dr. Goldberg instead because her wait time was significantly more ridiculous than his (this was nearly 10 years ago).  I like Dr. Goldberg and always felt very comfortable with him-- just trying to decide if I want a male doc for delivery.

    I live west of the 405 now so would be interested in hearing more about Dr. Vogel-- her amazon reviews, oops Yelp reviews, are really mixed.

    Thanks @reverey !  I'm scheduled to see Dr. Goldberg but I'm wondering if I should try to meet with Dr. Vogel as well as I would prefer to have a doctor slightly closer to home.   Perhaps I will see you around the OB's office. :)
