I had my first child with Physicians for Women and am now pregnant with my second. While my doctor, Dr. Gilotti, is wonderful, unfortunately, the office itself is so busy there are long hold times to speak to anyone, as a working mom appointments in the morning, evening or weekends are very difficult to get, nurses take all day to return a call regarding a simple question and you cannot speak to a doctor regarding a problem unless your problem is deemed an emergency. I finally got sick of the frustrating, impersonal treatment by the office staff and nurses and left in the middle of my second pregnancy. I just think that my doctor's office should be available to address my valid concerns (about pain, fatigue, etc.) even if they are not emergencies.
