Annoyed with Stony Brook Gynecology and Obstetrics

Every time I have an appointment with this one particular Dr. My appointments are always rescheduled by the Dr.!!! I have seen my Dr. Once since being pregnant; I'm five months. I've been seeing the nurse practitioner! So I have an appointment on Friday and they called and said the Dr. Needs to reschedule but she isn't in any time I can go. I think I'm going to switch Dr.'s in that office! It's so frustrating!

Anyone else experience this?

Has anyone used O'keefe? I'm thinking of seeing him on Tueaday and if I like him I'm going to switch to him!

Okeefe is very nice, met him a few times during both pregnancies..with my ds I wa still very early on but was concerned over a pain I felt, to ease mind he caught the Sono tech before she left for the night and had her give me a sono..have only good experiences with him..hth

This has never happened to me. But honestly it's why you should see all the DR's when you are pregnant. Unless you are a scheduled C you won't get to choose who delivers you anyway. And even if you are a C, things happen out of your control.

So I've been wanting to ask this question but haven't met w my Dr. Again! Thanks for responding! So at this office even if your seeing the same Dr. The entire time you can't request the Dr. That delivers the baby. Is it just like who is on call or something? I'm going to ask when i go next week but I figured since you responded I'd ask you. :)

Correct. I went to the same practice and rotated who I saw, any of them (or none of them) could be on call when you go into labor.

I used the same practice and it is who is on call. In fact I had a scheduled c/s with Okeefe but DS had other plans and Welischar was on call when I went into labor so she did my section. All of them IMO are awesome. I think by the time I had DS I had seen all of them an equal amount of times.

Welischar

Some people really like her and I did before I got pregnant I guess it depends on your wants. Good luck! :)

Crashing - I go to a different practice and I only saw my regular Dr once or twice during each of my pregnancies (I'm not even sure if I saw her with DS 2 - I think I was scheduled to see her and he came early). It's completely normal for this to happen.

I found out through the process though that my Dr was the one I liked least in the practice. She was always running behind and wasn't as warm and fuzzy as the others.
