He is an excellent OBGYN! He delivered my daughter giving me the opportunity for VBAC when no one else would.

He delivered both boys 11 and 8 years ago. Completely satisfied especially with him checking an ultrasound every visit. Pregnant again and about to give him a call.

The first time I met this OB I was in a gown on an ultrasound table for my first prenatal check-up with him. I had visited an emergency room not long before the appointment, for bleeding, and was worried about the health of my baby. He walked in, sat down next to the table, flipped the ultrasound machine on and off very quickly, without speaking a word to me. I sat up and asked "can I see my baby." He said only "next time." I was 25 weeks along, and he did not look for the sex or take the time to actually look at the baby through the ultrasound, himself. The next words he said to me were "spread your legs." He inserted his finger into me. He said nothing more, got up and left. The nurse told me I could put my clothes back on. Once I was dressed, I had to go look for him myself, as he did not address any of my concerns, which the nurse had noted before I saw him. He did not provide any of the information an OB is supposed to provide. I found him in his office. I asked him what the sex was. He dismissed my question. I asked him to see the ultrasound, again, and he refused. I had told the nurse that I had a yeast infection and I expected the doctor to address that. So in his office, I asked him what was safe to use, and what I should do about the yeast infection. He very rudely said to me "what does the book say?" Obviously, all the pregnancy books say to ask your doctor. He dismissed me and failed to provide the prenatal services that Medicaid paid him to provide me. I did file a complaint with Medicaid, and I can now confirm that also according to Medicaid and other medical professionals I have seen since, his behavior was not at all appropriate, nor did he provide the services he was supposed to be providing. At the time, he was listed as specializing in high-risk pregnancies. They did not allow my friend to go back to the ultrasound room with me. After my appointment, she informed me that in the waiting room she heard the other mothers talking about how he treated them terribly, too. If you are a pregnant mother with any other options for OB's to go to instead of this monster, I implore you to go elsewhere. This man has no respect for women or their babies.

They ignored my questions and my appointment seemed rushed. They were downright degrading and I didn't feel respected at all. Their comments were hurtful. I was hoping that they would be sympathetic to my situation and understand where I was coming from. Instead, they made it completely obvious that they didn't care about me or what I had been through. They consistently dismiss my concerns. I don't trust them to ever actually look into my concerns and see if they're valid. They never made any effort to follow up with me after my visit and it made me feel very unimportant.
