Hello! We are new to the area, and was hoping someone could recommend a great OBGYN in Champaign, IL? Also, is Carle the best hospital to have a baby at? I am open to male or female OB's...But a great bedside manner is a must! Thank you so much!!

What can I do next?

I love Carle!! And also Dr. Sheppard and the team of midwives at Carle. They are all so wonderful and professional.

I would also second the team of midwives at Carle! I had a traditional OB/GYN throughout my pregnancy but was lucky to get one visit with a midwife towards the end and it was SO much better than any visits with my doctor had been. Carle was a pretty good place to deliver. They have tubs etc. and lots up up-to-date equipment, & GREAT lactation consultants. Good luck!

I just had my first baby 4 months ago and went to Women's Health Practice. I had Carol Thomas as a midwife and loved her! Unfortunatly I ended up with an emergency csection and had Dr. Trupin perform the procedure...she was fine but I was really hoping for a "normal" delivery. Good news is she was there within 10 minutes and it was in the middle of the night so I was really impressed by her quickness to get to the hospital!

I had my baby at Provena. I know a few people that work for both hospitals and one of my coworkers had a baby at both Carle and Provena and she swears by Provena. They have more nurses on the floor. I don't know what I would have done without the nurses at Provena...they were AMAZING!!

Good luck and let me know if you have any specific questions...I'd be happy to help!

Dr. Frank was great but he is no longer practicing. Dr. Dillard delivered my last at Carle and she was awesome!

We definitely like Provena over Carle. We saw Dr. Helfer at Christie Clinic. She was good. I have also heard good things about the midwives at Christie from friends that saw them, and I have heard excellent things about Dr. Nelson (also at Christie).
