I came here a few weeks ago and the young girl (who looked like a recent college grad) who did my ultrasound (I believe her name tag said ""Jenny"") seemed friendly. However, her technical skills were subpar. I would not trust her knowledge or advice. She looked at the ultrasound for less than a minute before she told me how far along I was, which was different by almost 2 weeks from the results I received from my current doctor at Stanford and a previous doctor I went to at UCSF.
The due dates determined by the Stanford doctor and the UCSF doctor were very close - different by TWO DAYS. However, the due date determined by the ultrasound technician here (Jenny) was different by almost TWO WEEKS. (These 3 ultrasounds were done within the same week and a half, which really makes me question her accuracy.) The ultrasounds done by the doctors at Stanford and UCSF were both almost an hour long, the one done here was less than a minute long.
**And actually (I forgot to mention previously), I also had another ultrasound done by another doctor at El Camino Hospital, who determined that I was the same amount of weeks as the Stanford and UCSF doctor. His ultrasound was one minute long.**
The ultrasound technician seems very inexperienced and incompetent. I would advise anyone to go elsewhere, unless you want Jenny to advise you to see a doctor out of state. It was as if she didn't care or want to help me at such a critical time. Coming here will only waste your time.
