“Amy delivered my baby and I couldnt feel more informed and in control of my care. She explained everything that was happening and was extremely supportive. As a first time mom, it was a scary process and she helped alleviate my nerves, was extremely encouraging, and I felt heard and valued throughout the delivery process. I specifically chose her to meet with for my 6 week postpartum appointment because my husband and I loved her. She was extremely attentive and knowledgeable during the in-office visit and showed true compassion and care about my health (physical and mental well-being), my family dynamic, and my son. We had some complications toward the end of my pregnancy and I am so grateful to have had an amazing person help bring my son into the world. Your practice is very lucky to have Amy and I look forward to continuing my care with her in the future.”

“Amy sat with me for a long time. She listened, comforted me, and spent time relaying her medical advice. Its not everyday that you come across an ONGYN with the same care and professionalism.”

Clinically great but I don't know what my vaginal ultrasound results mean? Shouldn't she have read the report and gotten in touch with me?
