So What Happened?

Thank you everyone for your responses! I called Dr. Swanson's office and Dr. Shari Hier-Duffin. I had both recommended and I ended up having a great conversation with a nurse at Dr. Hier-Duffin's office so I made an appointment there.

When I called Dr. Kenny's office they said that Dr. Swanson doesn't refer patients to Dr. Kenny's office and that Swanson sends those patients to a practice in Omaha. But, it sounds like you all have had different experiences than that.

Does anyone know Dr. Hier-Duffin? I'm going to try her and if I don't like her I am going to call Dr. Swanson's office.

This was a really hard decision to make!! All of your comments have been so helpful!

I just found out I was pregnant two days ago. I am not even in my fifth week yet and it has already been a roller coaster ride!

Thanks you so much for your help!

I'm going to recommend James Maly at the Women's Clinic of Lincoln. I am just about as high risk as they come and Dr. Maly took such good care of me with all three pregnancies. I have two competing autoimmune thyroid disorders, have had a leep procedure (pre-cervical cancer removal), have delivered a 32-week preemie with Down syndrome who received my thyroid antibodies and have had a baby following our wee one with genetic abnormalities who also suffered with thyroid issues, plus I'm 38! Dr. Maly is such a dear, dear man! If you go, tell him that M., Nora, Elliot and Isaac's mother, sent you. And, hug him for me! :)

Good luck!

I work for Maly and Swanson (in a way) Dr. Maly and they are both good. I have seen Dr. Kenney and he is the only maternal fetal doctor in town. He is good, I was a little dissapointed in bed side manner sometimes but he knows his job.

I agree with the two previous posters - Women's clinic of Lincoln - Dr. Swanson is actually a relative - Dr. Maly is very good too. But call soon - they stay pretty booked.

Dr. Robert Plambeck would be my referral. He's delivered 2 children for me, and 2 for my sister in-law, and 3 for one of my cousins, and both my sisterinlaw and cousin were high risk for completely different reasons. And his bedside manner is amazing. I have had many referrals for him throughout my time in Lincoln. beginning in 1995. Many blessings to you throughout your pregnancy.

Women's Clinic. My dr is Dr. Swanson however Dr. Maly delivered my daughter (he was on call). I was high risk, delivered at 29 weeks emergency c-section. I've been going to that office for 21 years. If you need a maternal fetal specialist Dr. Kenny is great! I didn't personally see him as a patient but many of the moms I was in the NICU with did.
