Hi, I'm 35 and have my first bub on the way and my partner and I are moving from Australia to Houston. I think Spring/Woodlands area. I'm obviously very worried and scared as I will not know anyone and I'm concerned about health care. If anyone can advise me on any good hospitals/pregnancy care that would put my mind at ease. I'm hoping hubbies work insurance will cover me.
Re: Moving to Houston Feb and worried
Hi! I am also from Houston, but have lived here my whole life. I know it is stressful finding new medical care (especially when pregnant), but Houston is known for having some of the best hospitals in the country.
I have decided to give birth at Texas Children's Women Pavilion in the Medical Center, and my doctor is with the Women's Specialist of Houston. My doctor is located in the hospital, which I like because I am already pretty familiar with the hospital and if I ever have a problem during my appointments I just take the elevator down a couple of levels and I can been seem immediately.
I have heard many great things about the Women's Hospital and Memorial Hermann as well.
Like the PP mentioned, Spring/Woodlands is a good ways away from the medical center, but many of these hospitals have satellite locations all around the Houston area.
Good luck!
Shesin the West Houston medical center. She delivered two of my babies in 2013, and 2014. She was seriously one of the best not only doctors I've ever met, but just a great person in general. She made everything so easy. When she delivered mine in 2013. She was due just two weeks after me. Shes amazing. Please look her up if you are in need of an obgyn.
