Question for those of you who are patients at TWC.  Does your doctor deliver your baby, or do they do a rotation and you get whoever is on call at the time?

Congratulations on expecting!!  That is wonderful!

My doctor, Dr. Haney with TWC, delivered me.  However, she did rotate me among 2 other doctors - Dr. Morgan and Dr. Blake- just in case for some reason I went into labor on a day that we was not able to deliver me.  She made it her priority to deliver my babies, but she did make sure that I saw Drs. Morgan and Blake at least once so that I'd feel comfortable if they had to deliver me.

I really did like TWC.  Let me know if you need any "reviews" of any of those 3 doctors - they are all wonderful, but have varying "styles."

My OB, Dr. Oldfield, performed my c-section. I happened to go into labor on her night on call, but if it had been another night (I went to L&D at 11pm) I assume the OB on call would have done the middle of the night checks on me rather than Dr. Oldfield. As it was, I didn't deliver until 3pm the next day and she was able to come over and do the c-section.  When I had some bad cramping in the middle of my pg, I couldn't get in to see Dr. Oldfield on an immeidate basis and instead saw one of the other doctors in the group. Otherwise, I always only saw Dr. O.

Ditto what Dawn said. My last pregnancy was complicated by complete placenta previa so I knew I would require a c-section and the concern was bleeding. When I went in for a normal check-up and was having regular contractions Dr. Oldfield sent me to the L&D triage and said that the doctor on call would perform the c-section that night if necessary. Luckily everything stopped with meds and I went home 4 days later and on bed rest managed to go until my scheduled c-section which Dr. Oldfield performed. My son was induced so the induction was scheduled at her convenience.
