Anyone deliver at Westchester Medical Center?
I'm very early in pregnancy but was wondering if anyone has delivered their baby there. If so, was it a positive experience and do you recommend anyone in particular? Overall, would you recommend WMC? Thanks!

Re: Anyone deliver at Westchester Medical Center?
White Plains hospital has the best maternity/ delivery ward in all of Westchester County. I'm not so sure why the previous poster called it a warzone- but it's the best.
Stay away from Westchester Medical. I've had two knee surgeries there and my BIL had one that didn't go well.
Westchester Medical Center has received horrible ratings for Maternity care.
I dont know what the poster who called WP hospital a warzone means by that but they have received wonderful ratings. My SIL also delivered at WP and had a great experience.
WP hospital actually received a HealthGrades Maternity Care Excellence Award for 2008/2009
Ditto. No clue where that's coming from.
I'm not sure how recently any of you ladies have actually been to WP Hospital, but they've been under constant reconstruction/renovation for nearly a year - and its no better than it was before.
A friend of mine went to the ER because she was going into labor and waited there nealy half hour before she was brought up to maternity - and she was pre-registered!
They may have been rated highest in Westchester, but first hand experience out-weighs any subjective awards committee in my book.
