DO NOT USE THIS PRACTICE!!! \r
\r
I went to Cary Women's Center (Dr./Owner Christy Clayton/Dr. Tiffany Flanagan/Dr. Samira Tahtawi) in June '06 & was told that it appeared by my ultrasound that I had lost my baby (""it looks like an empty sac"") and it was suggested that I go ahead and consider a D&C (which I refused). They did not check my hormone levels (pretty standard practice, especially when the doctor thinks you are at risk of losing the baby and needs more info), so I went back to the practice and asked for this to be done. After two lab draws, I was told that my hormone levels did not rise as they should have and this was not good news. A couple of days after the first ultrasound, I had another one & was told the same thing - no evidence of a viable fetus. My husband and I, at this point, told our families what was going on. I cried for days - woke up crying at night. It was horrible. Seven days after the first ultrasound was read, I went to another practice after insisting on something more being done to be 100% sure. Imagine expecting nothing from this, and then hearing a little heartbeat & seeing a ""non-empty"" sac showing on the screen above. It's now January, and my husband and I are having a little baby girl in 7 weeks. If I had listened to these folks, I would have aborted a child that is due in February '07. \r

On top of everything - a month or so ago, this practice actually sent us a bill for my deductible they say we owe from the two ultrasounds read incorrectly & the bloodwork I insisted on and was also read incorrectly? This is AFTER we attempted to rationally (!) discuss the matter with the practice manager & were told we still had to pay!? Unreal. \r

Obviously, we'll be in touch with attorneys regarding this matter after our little girl is born. Do yourself a favor and PLEASE DO NOT use this practice!
Cons: Everything
