Where to begin...first of all if you are having a healthy pregnancy do yourself a favor and find a midwife. Here, you will get zero attention or information and will spend at least an hour waiting just so the doctor can come in and spend two minutes with you while rushing you out. Second, their billing staff is inept and rude. We transferred out of their practice after being tired of being treated like we had an illness and were simply there so they could cash in. They billed out insurance multiple times for the same visit then tried to stick us with the denied charges as well as the $200 deposit for the OB for delivery (newsflash: we didn't deliver with you!). I struggled to even get a hold of someone in finance, who then expressed doubt I was telling the truth and finally eventually corrected the error. The doctors themselves are ok but most of the ones we got rotated through we were convinced wouldn't know us from Adam come delivery time. We are at a birth center now and so much happier and so much better taken care of and the c-section rate for our practice now is 3% versus 33% for Physicians for Women. 33%! When we asked them how they would help us facilitate a natural, intervention-free labor they blew us off and danced around questions about why their rate was so high. To recap: never saw us on time even with first morning appts, impersonal and inattentive, statistically frightening rates for c-sections and episiotomies. They also gave us a really hard time about leaving and tried to scare us with "what if" scenarios even though we explained we had done the research to choose the safest option for us.
