  • My ob/gyn is Dr. Melissa Dennis at Advocate in Lakeview and she is wonderful. I only have experience with her as a gyno, but she was my friend's OB when she had her son and she swears she won't go to anyone else if she has another baby. My primary doctor and physical therapist are also through Advocate and I have had nothing but positive experiences with them. Good luck!

  • My GYN is Dr. Abbie Roth w/Northwestern.  I'd definitely recommend her/the facility!
  • CONGRATS!!! 

    I see Dr. Jane Blumenthal with Northwestern and really like her.  http://www.mygyne.info/

    I used to see Dr. Dennis, who is also great, but switched b/c when we have a baby, I want to deliever at Northwestern.  Northwestern has private rooms vs. shared rooms and I'd prefer that.  There are many options for Drs/hospitals in that area, but I'm most familiar with Northwestern and AIMMC. 

    Both Dr. Dennis and Dr. Blumental have always been very thorough and very prompt.  You can't go wrong with either one!  Best wishes for a happy/healthy rest of your pregnancy!

  • Yay for fellow Michiganders in Chicago!

    I see Dr. Brenda Onia at Chicago Women's Health Group right by the Water Tower downtown 312-943-0282 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting            312-943-0282      end_of_the_skype_highlighting It also happens to be next door to Prentice. I absolutely love her. At a certain point (24 weeks), you start to alternate between your primary ObGyn and the other doctors at the practice because if you go into labor during the weekend or other "off" hours, your doctor may not be on call and the another doctor from the practice may deliver your baby. It's there way of making sure that you are comfortable and know all of the doctors as well as they are familiar with your case.

    Prentice also offers free hospital tours on Mondays, Wednesdays and some Saturdays so you can always go check it out. http://www.nmh.org/nm/prentice+hospital+tours

    Also, if you decide that you want to go with Prentice (which is a part of Northwestern Memorial), you can call their "new patient" number and they can set you up with an ObGyn if you don't have one in mind. (1-877-926-4664)     

    And as an FYI (in case you haven't found it yet), TheBump also has a Chicago board along with birth months (calculated by your estimated due date), trimester boards, etc in case you have more pregnancy related questions
