Help! Questions for OB
I've been with my doctor for many years so I. Not sure his helpful these questions are but they are things that are important to me : What are the office hours (late night of early morning) What hospital are they affiliated with What insurance do they accept How many doctors are in the practice (most make you rotate bc any can deliver your baby) Hmm I think that's all I can think of now

TY! I have been with the same dr for years too, but they are essentially a huge "baby factory" and don't deliver where I want to. I think I am over nervous haha

Re: Help! Questions for OB
Some things that were/are important to me in no particular order
1. How many Dr's in the practice (I wanted a solo practitioner) 2. What happens in the event my Dr can't be at my delivery, who is the back up 3. How often does a non complicated pregnancy have sonograms 4. Do you do all sonograms and basic testing in office (i.e. Level 1, Level 2, glucose test) 5. What hospital do you deliver at 6. I also made sure I got a feel for the front office staff, are they helpful, kind, easy to deal with 7. Accepts my insurance
