[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious why no medstar or gw [/quote] I delivered my first 2 at Sibley and loved the staff and facilities but didn’t enjoy being pressured/on the clock to deliver after being induced. In my experience, OBs tend to apply that pressure more so than midwives. I asked around but don’t know of any midwifery practices that deliver at Sibley.

For medstar WHC, I didn’t feel the facilities were clean, and the rooms were a bit small. I’ve heard great things about the midwives that deliver there though and I know they do great work, it’s just not for me.

Similarly, my husband worked at GW (albeit as a contractor) and he is adamant about the facility’s lack of cleanliness and dedication to patient care behind the scenes and among higher ups. Again, no shade to the midwives and nurses who work out of this hospital and put themselves on the line for women and babies- it’s just not a fit for me.

Since this will be my third, I know I want to work with a midwife and if I can’t do that at Sibley, I’m really hoping to try the birthing center out. It’s just hard to find recent reviews. [/quote]
