[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's the big deal?  People will happily pay $5000 to go to Disney but balk at the minimal cost for a private room at Sibley?  I delivered two there and it was as pleasant as labor and delivery can be.  Great nurses, great care
  What more can you legitimately ask for?![/quote]

Functional blood transfusors in the OB operating rooms.  That's what I'd ask for. [/quote]

Wow. That is awful. I know two friends who needed transfusions during their deliveries. One vaginal and one C section. One friend lost over half her blood volume from a hemorrhage and need emergency transfusion and hysterectomy. I would never deliver there knowing this. Even my amazing GP - who is affiliated with Sibley and in their office building - said she would not recommend delivering at Sibley (at least until the new building is done) because they aren't equipped to deal with complications. I dont understand why so many love the place when there are so many great hospitals in this area. [/quote]

It's my OB that I love. I hate that they exclusively deliver at Sibley. I'd love for them to apply some pressure - especially with the delay in opening the new hospital. But the practice, to my knowledge, doesn't. They supply Sibley with a lot of patients but don't seem to leverage their position. I don't mind the idea of Sibley, I mind the idea of ONLY delivering at Sibley.[/quote]
