Office Visit / Follow-up

Leah is thorough and listens well

OB Care

She said “nice to meet you” when we had already met before.

OB Care

Wish the sonographer would have been able to get all she needed at the anatomy scan appointment, but now I have to go back again. I understand it was just how the baby was positioned, but it was a long ultrasound appointment.

Gynecological Problem Visit

She took the time to listen and made suggestions for a plan to address the concern.

OB Care

My appointment was scheduled for 3:15 and I was not seen u til 4:45. Apparently, in another room a procedure had problems but I was only informed of this over an hour after waiting. I generally love my PA and Doctor at Lakeshore (Melissa & Karen) so this was usually for sure and I know things happen, I just think this was not a time it was handled well. Also, after waiting for so long in the room, we were interrupted 2x by other staff seeming impatient to be done with the day. Communication with the staff just seemed poor between each other and with me. This was all unfortunate because I’ve also been having some syncope issues your office referred me to a cardiologist for as they did not have any answers for me and this seemed to be breezed over. I’m not sure if you guys read these surveys or not either but next appointment I will be 30 weeks pregnant and have yet to meet one of the doctors who could deliver my baby? I’m not sure if this is normal or not but it has me feeling kind of uncomfortable.
