The one I was with originally was an AWFUL doctor. Everyone at that practice was terrible at communication, never answered the phones and apparently didnt know much ab ok it anything?? We had been planning a trip to Zanzibar for our anniversary and I asked if that was an area with a risk of getting Zika virus, they (every nurse AND MY OB) literally said they’d never heard of Zika and that I should just Google it and stop bothering them about it.
I was freaking out and my husband’s boss’s wife heard about it and immediately recommended me to her doctor at another practice. He is amazing and we love him.
I honestly didnt really have the option of shopping around and there arent very many ob practices here, so it was really lucky that we were able to switch to the doctor we have now. And since we’d never been pregnant before and barely knew anyone in Memphis who HAD, God definitely had a hand in things.
It’s just important to find a doctor who you feel is easy to communicate with, listens to your concerns and who you think you’ll be comfortable trusting with your delivery
