Re: delivery w/ Dickman, Ladd, Maggid?

[Anonymous]

Has anyone delivered with Dickman, Ladd, Maggid, etc. at Holy Cross hospital. I will be in January, and have not seen too much feedback about them on this or the General Parenting Board...just wanting to hear stories, positive and negative.

Thanks!

I delivered at Holy Cross with Dr. Maggid and had a good experience. Dr. Maggid has been my doctor for years and I have always liked him. I thought he was really good throughout the delivery. He didn't push me to have the epidural - I did eventually have it, but he let me wait until I wanted it. He was also very reassuring. My son ended up in the NICU because he was grunting some after the birth. I remember the explanation from the NICU nurse being kind of scary, but he was quick to reassure us about the situation (which turned out not to be anything really serious).
