Need OB/GYN recs in Milwaukee area

Or more specifically, Menomonee Falls area.  I've been seeing an OB/GYN in Waukesha for years for my annulas, but now we're a couple months away from TTC.  We live in the Falls, so I'd like to see someone while I'm pregnant that is not 45 minutes away from home!
Anyone have any good recommendations for any OB/GYNs in the Falls/Germantown/Sussex/Brookfield/Wauwatosa area?
TIA ladies!

Re: Need OB/GYN recs in Milwaukee area

  • My OB isn't in the falls, but it isn't too far away, depending on how close you live to 45 (my grandparents live on Pilgrim and its probably 15-20 minutes from there). I see Dr Angela Breckenridge at the West Bend Clinic. I ADORE her. I've also seen Dr Alstadt in that practice and she's great too. The whole clinic there is awesome and really took care of me when I had to swtich to their clinic at 39 weeks pregnant.

  • I really liked all of the doctors at the Womens Care Center.  It's located inside of the West Allis Women's Pavillion.  My doc is Dr. Dobbs but any of the doctors in that practice are great.  Their phone # is 414-978-2229.
  • I have seen two of the OB's from Lifetime Ob/Gyn in Brookfield (at North and Calhoun). With my first DD I had Dr. Gumina, and for my second DD I had Dr. Michelle Backus. Both are wonderful to talk with and have great bedside manner. The practice can be busy at times. They deliver mostly at St. Joe's or also at Elmbrook.
  • I go to Dr. Van Fossen at Medical Associates in Menomonee Falls.  I've seen a few of the OBGYNs in the practice, and they all were fantastic.  Dr. Diestelhorst (sp?) performed my c-section.

  • I also go to Dr. Van Fossen, but I've only seen her once. It was for my annual exam. I liked her. We're TTC now so hopefully I'll be making another appt sometime soon!

  • I went to the Women's Care Center.  I am not crazy about the male doctors there.  I had very, very bad morning sickness with Natasha and they seemed to blow it off every time.  I was told by Dr. Hayes that I was taking my zofran too much.  I was taking 1 pill a day.  I couldn't get  off the couch if I didn't take it...and that is not acceptable with a 2 year old at home.  I fought with the front desk and only saw Dr. Miller-McCarthy after that.  Dr. Dobbs is also very nice and Dr. Lloyd delivered Natasha and was wonderful.
