Need a new obgyn
Hi all-I am a 32 week FTM and I need to switch Dr's. I currently go to Area Wide Obgyn and I cannot stand it there. They never discuss test results or give advice. The Dr's are with you maybe 3-5 minutes each visit. We reallly feel like we are being neglected. Any suggestions? Also, which hospital do you prefer? Metro or Spectrum Downtown (Butterworth).

Re: Need a new obgyn
Nope! That board is dead. There are a few expecting moms on this board (plus a lot of already-moms).
They will all give you good suggestions when they pop on.
I 2nd Dr. Klyn. She's so easy to talk to. I saw her before I got pregnant, during my pregnancy and she did my c-section.
I didn't have any problems with Butterworth. Everyone was really nice, and the nurses that were on shift when I was in labor were really great. My husband works there now too, so I think I'm a little more biased towards them. : )
A friend delivered at Metro, but we never discussed her experience there (would be 4 years ago). I could always ask her if you really wanted to know.
My Profile
Ditto this office. I see Dr. Ulstad, but have no complaints about the other docs in the practice. Love.

You also have my response on the other bord but I will share here too since it seams there are a few interested.
I go to Grand Rapids Womens Health. It is in the Womens Health building at MI and Collage. I see Dr. Edvenson and he is a great Doc. This is my 4th baby with him as my Doc and he delivered my sister(she is 10).
Over the years I have seen pretty much every Doc in the office and they are all great. They are really kind and they really listen to what you have to say, and really care that you are not only health but as happy as they can make you!
All of the office staff is great. I also love that you don't have to go anywhere else besdies the hospital. They have their own ultrasound department, and there is a lab in the same buliding. Their is also a little cafe down in the lobby, and Baby Beloved is also right there as well.
Personally I really dont like Butterworth as a whole.(I hate their ER) But all of the labor and deliivery nurses have been really great. I love that Devos Childreans is also attached. My yougest monster was born 6 week early and I was able to be close to her the whole time she was in NICU. Had I gone to Metro like I wanted to they would have transfered her and she would have been all the way across town.
My family practicioner serves as my OB/GYN, and isn't seeing any new patients. I know that makes me useless here.
I just wanted to say hi to all of the "non-regulars." Post here more often!
