I went to this group of ob/gynecologists when I was pregnant with my first child and I was not even sure what to look for in a gynecologist. So I would attribute my encounter with this exceptional group of doctors to sheer good luck. It was only during the course of my pregnancy and especially during the course of labor that I realised what a great group I had found.
The best thing that I liked about this group was their very strong belief in natural childbirth with the least interventions. Theirs is a midwifery model of childbirth which allows a lot of freedom to the mom to be in terms of being able to do many things during labor like walking, bathing, several ways of delivery, etc. I and my husband were very keen on having a natural childbirth and inspite of quite a few complications, ultimately I was able to deliver my son naturally after a 24 hour long wait after my water breaking and another 24 hour wait after being induced. No other doctor would have waited so long and would have surely advised a cesarian.
Other things at the office visits were always great - enough time to answer all our questions, advice nurse was always available on the phone, a senior doctor was always on call in the hospital so you feel comfortable delivering with your own doctor being present.
Also, as an end note its a group run by all women and great and very well experienced ones at that - truly amazing. Go for them !!
