Of 8 doctors in this practice, I really LOVED 7 of them, which I think is remarkable. Yes, they are a busy practice but pregnant women definitely take preference (as they should in my opinion). When you do have to leave a message for a nurse, they call back very quickly. In fact, I left a message at 10am today, had a call back by 10:45 and an appt for 1:30 tomorrow (and I'm not pregnant), I think that is pretty responsive. Any busy practice will have phone and scheduling issues, I consider the fact that they are busy a good thing! I chose Abington OBGYN Assoc because my sister recommended them and the interview went well. I had an amazing experience despite the fact that I had a c-section (my daughter was almost 11lbs!) I felt like Dr. Warsetsky was a good friend who took care of me. My recovery was amazing. I agree that if you want a natural birth experience, a traditional OBGYN is not the way to go. Clearly, there are midwives for a reason. If you don't want an epidural or want to give birth in a tub, don't see a tradtional MD! Not every woman wants a natural experience and I was more than happy to take that epidural and c-section, don't judge!
Do schedule your annual 4months in advance, that is just common sense :-) All in all, they are great.
