i'm with Dr. Sandra Brothers. She partners with Dr. Crochet. They are both located in the Landry Center and associated with Baylor Dallas. I'm a runner and Dr. Brothers is open to me running (in my 8th mo now) and is someone that doesn't push c-sections. Baylor Dallas is a great place too. They have a WONDERFUL mommy and me group for post birth too which i highly recommend.

Dr. Kyle Mathews is GREAT. He is in Plano and uses Presby Plano. He doesn't say much...but is a great dr and takes all kinds of precautions. I have used him for my 2 kids and both were c-sections.

Hi C.,

I have Dr. Jane Nokleberg at Presby Dallas and she is absolutely FANTASTIC!! We have 3 boys and she has been by my side the entire time. Presby Dallas has also been rated "best hospital to have a baby in Dallas" several times. The staff is incredible and caring, I can't say enough good things about them.

You might want to try a midwife at a birthing center. They gave me so much better care at The Birthing Center at Swiss Avenue than I got at a Dr's office. First off they told me how to prevent preclampsyia. They gave me nutritional support. When my appointment was supposed to be 45 minutes I spent 40 to 45 minutes with the midwife even if it was just to talk about the weather. They were never late to an appointment. When I delivered they always had the baby right beside me. They also are very good at keeping an eye on your blood sugar, protein in urine, and weight and will transfer you to a Dr. if you have any problems. They gave me exercises to expand the birth canal and instructions on how to tell if you need to come into see them if there is lack of movement. When I talk to people about what my midwife did for me they are amazed because their dr's don't spend half as much time nor do they give them anywhere near the education about how to eat, exercise, sleep, rest, and live while pregnant to have a healthy baby.

I'm a high risk patient for premature labor and my first two babies were both preemies. I switched doctors for my third pregnancy and had a wonderful experience and went full term. Dr. Marci Oliveira is amazing!!! She is perfect for pregnancies that may run into complications. I love her nurse too...which helps when that's who you talk to over the phone when you have questions!!! Dr. Oliveira is located at Medical City in Dallas. She may refer you to see Dr. Weiss for the preclampsyia, he's a perinatologist there at Medical City. He is very smart and a very good doctor as well... They work together very well and you will feel so comfortable during your pregnancy!!!

My daughter was born two months ago and switching to Dr. Oliveira was the smartest and best thing I ever did!!!

Good luck!

Gave Dr. Autrey's office a call at ###-###-####. He has a great staff and a great doctor. Dr. Autrey has been in pratice over 24 years at Medical City Dalas Hospital. He will probably send you to Dr. Weiss for the preclampsyia and they will keep in close contact with Dr. Autrey on each and every visit. Dr. Autrey also excepts all insurances except for Medicaid. Good luck to you and your baby.

I have had the same OB/GYN for all 3 of our kids and continue to swear by him. He is Dr. Gary Duncan in Plano. I had 2 of my kids at Plano Presby and 1 at Plano HCA. The experiences I had w/ Presby were awesome and have a quite a few friends who had children there. But Dr. Duncan is a wonderful doctor and recommend him to anyone.

Hi C.,
My ob/gyn practices at Baylor Med Center in downtown Dallas. Elizabeth Stevenson, D.O. at Park Lane Ob/Gyn ###-###-####
http://www.parklaneobgyn.com/
She is the blonde lady on the web homepage. Her partner, Dr Reyes is very nice, also.
I have been seeing DR Stevenson for 8 years, and I am 36, she is a 2-3 years older than me. What I really appreciate about her is that she realizes she is the primary care physician for most of her patients, and she takes many extra continuing ed classes for depression, heart disease, etc in an effort to give "whole body" care.
Plus, she does a great delivery if that is in your future. Funny, focused, not threatened by a doula.

I highly recommend Dr. Berry Fleming.

I have had a few gynecologists over the years and he is by far the best! He really takes the time to listen and calm any fears you have. He's also good about not doing unnecessary testing, etc. I'm currently 34 weeks pregnant. I can't say enough about him. He delivers at what is formerly Plano Presby and also at Baylor Frisco.

Hi C.,

I know you said Plano, however, I can say Dr. Elise Harper at Centennial Medical Center is ONE of the Best OB's I've ever had and I have researched many! She delivered my son when my last OB turned into a real nightmare mid-pregnancy! She was very professional while at the same time maintaining a wonderful connection. Centennial Medical Center is located off of Lebanon Rd in the Frisco area of 121. Here is the office # ###-###-####. I've recommended many people to her and they've had nothing but great things to say about her!! However, these days her schedule becomes filled up quickly so it may take a while to get an appointment. Good Luck!

Dr. Garrett Garner (Presby Plano) is awesome! I had blood pressure problems with my first pregnancy and then my water broke early with my second and I misscarried our third over the summer. He is very caring and has a sense of humor too. I highly recommend him.

I saw Dr. Katrina Walsh for 1st pregnancy. Liked her, but felt staff and she paid lip service to my desire for no drugs and breastfeeding. Also seemed threatened by hiring of labor doula. However, always very professional. I was induced with high BP 1 wk before due date and while baby was born fine, I had a few complications. The LDR nurses at the Plano hospital (can't remember current name, but it's at Coit & 15th) were awesome, tho didn't care for the attitude of the recovery RNs.

Switched to OB-GYN practice that also has 2 RN Midwives on staff, Women's Health Alliance. Saw the midwives for next 2 kids (drove in from Frisco for last one!)....loved them! Never had problems with high BP again, great deliveries.
Best of both worlds, you're in the hospital (Baylor University Medical Center, downtown Dallas) so you don't have to be transported if there's trouble, but you also have low-intervention approach!!!! I've met Dr. Mathews, but not enough to make judgement call. If you can, go for the water delivery...I didn't say yes quickly enough (tub fills slooooooowly), but would if I did it again!
They'll give you lists of doulas, pediatricians, lactation consultants!!
