OB-GYN Doctor Recs???

Hey everyone!

Does anyone have any recommendations for really good OB-GYN doctor(s) is the San Antonio area (femail preferred)? We moved here to Boerne and are looking at TTC soon and I dont know anything about S.A. Doctors. Please let me know if anyone can help me out!

Re: OB-GYN Doctor Recs???

  • A lot of us go to NE-OBGYN... here's their website: ne-obgyn.com. ?I use Dr. Farhart (love him) but he's male. I've heard good things about Dr. Tammy Murdoch too. It's in Stone Oak.... so I'm not sure how?convenient?that would be for you. ?A practice in the Medical Center would also be a good option... I'm sure you'll get lots of recs.?

    And welcome to SA! Where did you move from??

  • Thanks so much for the rec! I am from Houston (Galveston originally.) I check to see if that doctor took my insuarance. I have Aetna and they are not listed on my doc find! DARN!!! I really appreciate your help though!

    I was also wondering (because I am so new at this planning) when you go with a doctors office that has several doctors (more than 1 I mean), are you guaranteed that doctor that you choose will be doing the delivery of your baby? I have been wondering that for a while now. I am just going to be afraid that a doctor who is a  total stranger to me will show up on my deliver day! Do you know anything about how that works? anyone?

    Thanks so much for all of your help!

  • I have to use University Health System, so my dr is part of the South Texas Womens med clinic (on datapoint dr). I haven't had any problems with them, but there is no guarantee that my OB will deliver me. I will most likely be delivered by a 3rd yr resident.  I've come to terms with this b/c there are always attendings on call and will be there if anything goes wrong. Plus, DH works in the building.

  • Hi and welcome to SA!

    I use Dr. Villa Olvera at Women Partners.  The practice is all women but any one of 6 or so doctors could deliver you but you will meet them beforehand.

  • I'm with Lonestar in the Medical Center. As far as I know its only women there, and I really love my doctor.
  • Ditto Lonestar OB - my Dr. recommends them, several coworkers go there and I gave GregsGirl the rec too.

  • I'm with Lonestar OBGYN also, but my doctor is male - Dr.Peter Kuhl. I love him. He's very natural-birth focused, very laid back, very supportive. As far as I know, if I go with him for the birth (instead of a homebirth/midwife), he will be the one present at the delivery, unless he's on vacation, otherwise he's basically on call for all his patients.

     Lonestar is the only practice with certified nurse midwives. It's a large practice, with different components. I can't say enough good about them.

     

  • Hi

     

    I'm using LoneStar midwives...we adore them.  We are happy with the attention we get at our visits and meet all the midwives so if for some reason ours cannot be there...we will know who's delivering our baby.

     

    My friend is seeing Dr. Jennifer Jacobs (with LoneStar) and she is very happy

  • I used to go to lonestar... with Dr. Beciero but now I'm with Dr. Murdock at North East. They were both great!
