[quote=Anonymous]I am newly pregnant and beginning to look at obgyn practices. I live 5 minutes from Sibley, so have been looking into the various practices that deliver there, but a recent round of emails on my neighborhood listserv has me concerned. Multiple people mentioned being turned away (usually sent to Georgetown) when they arrived in labor because Sibley was full and had no beds available. It was difficult to tell how recently this occurred, but it seemed at least one experience was within the last year. Can anyone shed any light into this? Is this still a common occurrence? If so, any insight into how this comes about? It seems so incredibly stressful to have to go to an unfamiliar hospital with unfamiliar doctors at the very last moment, and it’s making me look more seriously at practices at other hospitals. Thanks in advance for any insight. [/quote]
