[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=kshin29]I was told I need to see someone as I am a high risk candidate for pregnancy. Anyone have good recs for a maternal fetal medicine doc (or even better, nurse practioner)? DC preferred but will go to MD or VA if they're the best! WOman also preferred. Thanks![/quote] Who told you that you'll need to see an MFM in the first place? My experience is that every OB has their own preferred MFM they trust and like to work with. Thus, I would ask the OB you'll be seeing during pregnancy who they suggest. I have had consults with 4 different MFMs in MoCo while either TTC or pregnant (long story why I've seen so many), and my experience is similar to a PP's statement. Every one I've seen has been either alarmist, dismissive, rushed, or disengaged.[/quote] I agree finding someone who your OB likes to work with. Mine was in the same building (hospital) as my OB and they clearly were friendly and on the same page about my care. I really loved my MFM - I saw Dr. Kelly Orzechowski at VHC.[/quote]
