Looking for OB/GYN recs

Looking for OB/GYN recommendations that meet the following criteria:

- Deliver at either North Shore Manhasset or LIJ Katz
- Not a solo practitioner
- Efficient office staff
- No ridiculous wait times (to me, that is 25-30+ mins)
- I live in Farmingdale and work in Roslyn, so somewhere in between would be great
- Huge perk if they do the sonograms (NT, anatomy) in their office rather than sending you to separate location

I know, I'm probably looking for a needle in a haystack, but figured I'd give it a shot! Thanks!

Re: Looking for OB/GYN recs

I highly recommend my obgyn its called Women for Women in New Hyde Park. They are open late and its a whole team of doctors. They deliver at LIJ Katz. Dr. Bell delivered both my children and I could not have been happier. My SIL goes and as does my cousin.

Another vote for Women for Women. They're right next to LIJ. Dr. Sanders is my primary and Dr. Smizer delivered my daughter. I liked all of the doctors in the practice. I typically make an appt first thing in the morning, but even when I don't, I never had to wait long.

They do u/s in the office, but you will have to go to LIJ for the anatomy scan because that requires a special machine.

Okay, must just be me because I know lots of people who recommend Women for Women -- I am currently a patient of the practice and they (well, Dr. Rodriguez, a covering doctor) delivered my DD but I am looking to switch away from them. Dr. Sanders, who I like a lot, recently dropped her OB license and is now only a GYN, so I wouldn't see her during prenatal visits. I'm just ehhh on Ostroff and Duncan, leaving Smizer and Bell, both of whom I love but I feel like liking only 2 of 4 OB's in the practice isn't great odds. I don't know, I find the office to be very factory-like if that makes sense - "Who's next? Step down. Take a seat." I also find that the front desk staff leaves much to be desired -- most of them seem annoyed when asked to do something; like its a hassle to book an appointment or write out a reminder card for me. Maybe I'm making a bigger deal of it than it really is. Who knows. Figured that I'd at least explore my options.

Northern Obstetrics and Gynecology was the best switch I ever made! They were amazing from day one and hits all of your criteria. The front office staff are all very patient and very nice and the nurses and doctors are incredible. By the mid-end of my pregnancy, every one knew my name. The hospital is North Shore Manhasset and they do everything in office. :)

Several of my friends go to Dr. Bashian and Dr. Frenkel's office in Bellmore. They love both doctors and delivered at LIJ Katz.

ETA: I know they do sonos in office but have to go to the hospital for anatomy scan.
