I am 11 weeks PG with my second baby - but ended up in the ER Friday night with some bleeding. When I called my doctors office this morning (1st thing at 9am) I was told a nurse would be calling me back. Well - it's the afternoon now and I still haven't heard anything. They told me at the ER to take it easy until I saw my doctor - so I stayed home from work today....and am waiting....I also had some issues with the office after I had my son and was frustrated then as well. Can anyone recommend a female OB/GYN who delivers at Plao Presby? Someone with good bedside manner and friendly, responsive office personnel.
Thanks!
I have a 9 month old and Kelli Watkins is my OB. I love her and would highly recommend. Very easy going, great bedside manner, etc!
My doctor is not female, but he is GREAT and is at Presb Plano. His name is Alvin Gebert.
I had bleeding my entire first trimester. He is very conservative and required that I be on bedrest as long as I was bleeding. After one particularly bad bleed (soaked a maxi in minutes), he came to the office on his day off to give me a sono for peace of mind. I had lots of complications with that pregnancy and both Gebert and his nurse (Rhonda) always fit me in and did whatever he could to give me peace of mind. (you never see the nurse only, he does his own sonos, etc)
Good luck! I know what you are going through!
I see Tania Jackson at PHoP. I've gone there for 9 years and had three children. My second pregnancy was very complicated, and she was great. Another ob was on call when I delivered #3, and I loved her!! Her name is Rene Obey. Her practice is new, so she's accepting new patients. My mom left a message with her office and didn't receive a call back until the next day, so I'm not sure if they're better than what you are experiencing now.
Dr Jackson is ###-###-####. She referred me to a Perinatalogist when I had bleeding. His name is David Gore, and he's awesome! Best wishesz
I second Dr. Gebert. I had 3 high risk pregnancies and he was great. He was always the one to call me back and always answered all my questions. I never felt rushed at his office. I was worried that if I delivered on a weekend and he wasn't on call that I would end up with a different doctor. He assured me that he would be delivering even if it was the weekend and he wasn't on call. He does not take chances with anything.
I'm sorry you are having trouble with your pregnancy, and doctors office. I know how frustrating it can be sitting and waiting on a doctor to call you back. I requested a refill with mine last Weds, still no call back and after calling again this AM, I'm still waiting, it's very frustrating.
The only reason I use the OB I have now is mainly for convenience (even though it may not sound like it) he's a good family friend and sees me on occasion when I have no medical insurance and I guess you get the good with the bad in my situation but when I had my second pregnancy, I used Dr.N. Light at Dallas Presby. She was wonderful with my prenatal care and when I miscarried after my son's delivery, she was right there on top of every phone call, had me come in immediately with the bleeding and was great at returning my calls with test results.
She can be reached at ###-###-####, sorry I don't have anyone for the hospital you are wanting but if Dallas Presby isn't too far from you, then I recommend you give her a try. Good luck with everything.

Delivered my 7 and 2 year old and just love her.
I agree with Sharon. I have been seeing Janelle Watts for quite some time now and absolutely love her. She preformed my c-section and everything went well. She was such a great, caring, person during my pregnancy and after. Wonderful bedside manner.
I'm so sorry you've had such a horrible experience with your doc! I delivered two babies at Plano Presby and loved both the hospital and my doctor. He's male but unbelievable! He's got the BEST bedside manner of any doctor I've ever seen and his nurse is great too. His name is Dr. MacDonald and we interviewed him first before we chose him so I know he doesn't mind meeting with you so you can feel him out. We were blown away when we met him, he's such a kind gentle soul. He talked to us for at least 30 min and then we found out he had been called to a c-section but didn't want to cancel on us or just run out. He then called our house and gave his cell phone number so that we could call him if we had any more questions. He only takes a certain number of patients so that he never overbooks and so he ALWAYS runs on time. Also, when he's with you, he never rushes thru the appt and always makes sure he's answered all our questions and I talk and ask A LOT. He came to see me in the hospital the night before I delivered on his day off and just all around made both my husband and feel so well cared for. We both recommend him so highly and hope you'll call his office so you can get the care you deserve! His number is ###-###-#### =)
My name is D. Bell. I am 40 years old with 5 children under the age of 8. Dr. Suzette Boyd delivered all of my children via c-section. She offices in Frisco and delivers at Presby Plano. I lived in Flower Mound (at the time) and utilized her services as she is a woman, mother and great doctor. Please contact her office at: ###-###-####. You can tell her I recommended you...I know she'll still remember me as that is the kind of great doctor she is. p.s.: my first pregnancy was twins (natural) and I was sick all the time and bled all the time. She kept me calm and never asked me to wait for any problem.
Dr. Keli Jones...she's awesome and her office is at Plano Presby!!! Her # is ###-###-####. Good luck!

She's just terrific! Give her office a call -- you won't be disappointed!
Chris Riegel with Prestonwood OB-GYN. I have been seeing him for 15 years -- since I found out I was pregnant with my first child. He has been AMAZING - through two births, endometriosis issues and ultimately a hysterectomy. HIs nurses and office staff know you by name and call bacck quickly if you need a call. I could not recommend anyone more highly. His office is next to Plano Presby and that is where i had both kids, all endometriosis surgeries nad my hysterectomy. HE ROCKS His number is ###-###-####. GOOD LUCK!
