Cleveland Babies

Cleveland Clinic OB...

Hello all! I am looking for a recommendation for a Cleveland clinic obgyn so I can deliver at hillcrest. I am currently ttc and love love love my current OB but she only delivers at lake health. I delivered my first daughter at lake west and I received amazing care but my daughter had a heart murmur and her care was subpar. They don't have a pediatrician there at all times and her heart echo had to get sent to Akron children's. As much as I love my doctor I know I should, for my future baby, deliver at hillcrest in case another situation arrived. Thanks for any info!

  • Dr. Alvarez delivered my baby on his last day at Hillcrest! Dr. Iafelice is my current OB and he is awesome!

  • Dr. Iafelice is wonderful!
  • Cleveland Clinic OB/Gyn next to Beachwood Mall is fantastic. I love Dr. Tara McElroy. Dr Golden and Dr. Minger are also great.
  • I use Dr. Rao. My sister also used him and he was there for the delivery. He also was the dr that my mom used to deliver all 3 if us kids! The amazing thing about him is how he remembers every single person!! My 1st appointment wen I found out I was prego, he walked up from behind me wen I was in waiting room still and said hello and my name! He hadn't seen me since my sister delivered months earlier and prior to that I nvr used him! He just always remembers people! Great guy!
  • Oh and Dr. Rao is at Hilcrest sry j forgot to mention.
  • Dr McElroy is awesome! She's thorough, and is awesome at listening. When I delivered DD #2 she didn't pressure me, let me make my own choices when it came to breaking my waters, epidural or natural etc. I thought about switching practices, because tbh, Hillcrest/cleveland clinic are billing NIGHTMARES! You keep getting amended bills, it's a mess.

  •  I love Dr. Gretchen Fisher at Independence CCF. She's awesome!
  • First time baby, so I am overwhelmed with what needs to be done. I have PTSD from a rape that happened when I was 18. I still have issues with even going for my women's health check ups (panic attacks and severe pain). I need to find a woman OB that is overly reassuring and caring that can be sensitive to this issue. I know it's not a common question but does anyone know of any OBs like this? I live near strongsville in a small town so I know I'll have to drive at least a half hr wherever I go. Thanks guys!
  • Dr Gerson is super nice (university in beachwood) but delivers at hillcrest
  • Dr. Tammy Parker is fantastic. She's in Avon. But unfortunately she only delivers at Fairview Hospital. I love going to Avon's Women's Health in general, so it may be something to look into for you (and a plus is that they have a pediatrician's office right next door). Good luck with the search! :)
  • I second Dr Parker, she's wonderful!
  • Dr. Tower and Dr. Rao were amazing with my high risk pregnancy!
  • I second Dr. Emery -- he is a great doctor with a great bedside manner out of Willoughby Hills.  In fact, during my six week postpartum visit with him in April, I was actually sad because the next time I would see him wouldn't be until next year.
  • I work at Hillcrest and I have not met an OBGYN here I don't like. I go to a NP/midwife, Cynthia Cover. Love this group. I have to say, Dr. Dinkar Rao is incredible and he takes his own calls 24/7. He has had waiting lists in the past and you might wait a while to get an appointment. He delivered my brother and I. I'm pretty sure he has probably delivered close to 100,000 babies.
