I live in Coppell, but would be willing to travel ~30 miles for the right Dr. I just had a terrible experience with my own OB/Gyn and would like someone who is attentive and responsive.

I see Dr. Vicha Siri at Trinity Medical Center in Carrollton. I have been going to him for about 4 years now. I am 36 weeks pregnant with my first child and he has been great through everything. I had some health problems and he was very attentive. He always takes the time to answer my questions in great detail.

I work in Labor and Delivery at "big Presby" . I would reccomend a Dr Fogwell . He is a very compent OB. From what I have observed he is his pt's advocate. And has a tendency to "spoil" his pt's. If you you would like a female , let me know .

Hey, mine just turned 17 and is still my baby! I can relate. R., I am not sure how your insurance is set up but mine now considers an ob/gyn a specialist other than a one time a year check up. If you are interested in total health care, my family physician is board certified and is wonderful! She even does my well woman exams every year. All but one of the females I have referred love her. And her pap smears are NOT painful. You might not know they are not supposed to be. Ha-ha. Anyway, she is a "relationship" doctor. She has left Tiena Health recently to open her own office in Flower Mound. Her name is Dr. Tambra Garrett. This is her website if you are interested: http://lifetimefamilyhealthcare.com/garrett.htm Good luck with any provider you choose. I have learned since I turned 40, they are very important to your life!

I absolutely love my OB/GYN! She is a part of a large practice and all of the Dr.s are great. I am going through my first pregnancy (high risk) and I'm 35. She is attentive, understanding and very responsive.

She is with Health Central Women's Care. Dr. Adrianne Light. I have friends that see other Dr's within the practice and they love them also.

###-###-####. They are located in Presby Hospital. I live in Valley Ranch and it takes me about 20 minutes to get there.
If you have any other questions please let me know.

R.,

I have a WONDERFUL OB/GYN his name is Dr. Tom Fleidner he is in the North Texas OB/Gyn office in Lewisville and Flower Mound. He is very personable and attentive. My first 2 kids were high risk pregnancies and came with alot of stress. I Heard of this Dr. through some friends and he was very mellow and allowed me to not worry. The thing i like the most is how much time he spent talking with me during my visits. I always felt that I was the only patient he had that day. I encourage you to see him. I referred a lot of people to him and haven't heard anything but positive feedback

Hi R.
I am a local area doula, so pretty familiar with some of the OB/GYNs in the area. I do know of some pretty good ones. Here is a couple names--these are ones that some of my past clients have used--granted I only spent time during delivery with these Docs, for the most part they have to be a pretty attentive and responsive for most of my clients to stick with them!! (Most of my clients are very educated on their options with labor and birth--and usually choose doctors who are willing to work with them to achieve the birth experience they desire!)

McKinney area—McKinney Ob/GYN--

Hi R.,

I am one of those "spoiled" patients of Dr. Fogwell, at Presby Dallas. He truly is FABULOUS!!! He is kind, open-minded, attentive, up to date, and I just can't say enough great things about him. I referred him to a friend of mine who had recently moved to Plano. After giving birth (c-section), one of the nurses looked at her tiny incision and said " you must be one of Dr. Fogwell's princesses."

I went through two pregnancies with him. It would be well worth your time to go interview him and see if he is the type of doctor you are seeking for your pregnancy and delivery.

Good luck,
S.

I am an L&D nurse for Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas would be happy to make some recommendations to you as there are several really good doctors here. You said you were willing to travel, if this is not too great a distance let me know what your preferences are and I could give you some names! I live in Fort Worth and delivered at PHD, I have worked with my doctor for several years and just love her. But my interests may be different from yours. Happy to help if I can!

Dr Alan Cowen at Comprehensive Women's Healthcare. He's been in practice for 20 years, I believe he was chief of obstetrics at Irving Hospital, and he's got a very good partner and nurse practitioner on staff as well. He can get busy - go for an appointment early in the day if you can...

I can't recommend him enough - he has a gentle demeanor and reputation as an excellent ob/gyn and surgeon. He's also not all about pushing prescriptions for everything - which I like. He's treated me, my mom and sister for issues of cervical cancer, uteran cysts, hysterectomy, miscarriage, and multiple happy births, even under dicey circumstances.
