    Dr. Mary Conte and her practice was the best for the delivery of my baby Sofia. I cant recommend…read moreher enough. She made my wife feel so comfortable, knowledgeable, and confident throughout her pregnancy. My wife really trusted her and cant say enough good things about her When researching OBGYN i was ready to meet with multiple ones and have my wife choose between who she felt most comfortable with. She fell in love with Dr. Conte right away So glad my HMO insurance had accepted her as my wife's OB

    If you are a woman of color or a first time mom, MARY CONTE completely lacks any sort of bedside…read moremanner, empathy, compassion and professionalism. Imagine being 8 months pregnant, finding blood in your urine, going to Evanston L&D in the middle of the night and a doctor slamming a door in your face telling you " I know what I'm doing I do this for a living!"all because you questioned the safety of a medication she prescribed. The resident I was unfortunate enough to work with, Nicole Michael, was also abysmal but I'll give her a pass because I was a resident at one point in my career. Apparently questions are not welcomed by Mary Conte. She insisted I had a UTI when every Urine analysis and culture came back negative for uti pathogens. Did she follow up with additional testing to figure out why there's blood in my urine? Or advise me on how to move forward? Nope. Turns out I had massive kidney stones in both kidneys which a month later I woke up in immense pain and it induced early labor. If she had done additional testing and follow ups, I could've been referred to a urologist and developed a plan. Just absolute sub par care and according to the nurses at Evanston, they can't stand Conte either. I hope Evanston HR sees this and acts accordingly. Mary Conte is the reason I and my entire family have switched from this OB practice to Advocate.

    I have had nothing but positive and good experiences with this practice. I came here from another…read moreOB in Park Ridge who was much less popular and hard to deal with so MWCWHC has been a blessing! I've seen Dr. Sandulescu since she started. She's wonderful! Amazing bed side manner, always compassionate and caring during exams. She's listened to all of my concerns and really gone above and beyond during what I felt were very demanding times health wise. I am going through IVF at an outside clinic and ended up with a large cyst that needed to be surgically removed. Dr. Sandulescu was amazing! There were billing mishaps on the hospital side that her office quickly addressed and helped me get appropriate documentation to support which saved me $$$! I've always been greeted warmly at the practice and staff have always been very quick and caring to help resolve issues. Sometimes more embarrassing ones! Any time I've called each staff member has been patient in letting me explain my issue, very helpful to get me in when I need and always a great attitude. The nurses are great as well and seem to be knowledgeable and understanding.

    Unfortunately, all the negative reviews are accurate. It's best to find a better place to go and…read moreavoid the hassle of dealing with these people, especially the red-haired lady who seems to make incorrect appointments. The doctor was good, but that doesn't matter when you have to go through such a frustrating front desk experience.

    What a lucky gal I am! I like my Ob/Gyn, Dr. Joseph Maurice, a whole bunch. (I yelped him too -…read morehe's good.) But like a lot of women in big cities, my practice consists of seven docs, so when it came time for my babe to arrive, I knew it would be luck of the draw. Enter Dr. Maura Brennan. We had never met. I just labored at home for a day, and labored hard for the whole night. I wanted to get to five minutes apart and get most of the work done in the comfort of my awesome bed. I also had planned on natural childbirth, seeing as the hubby and I are only planning on one great kid to spoil, and I consider myself to be a BSH. (That's Brick Shit House to you.) I read all the books, packed all the gear for my relaxing day of breathing and willing this baby into the world. I have one great contraction in the parking garage of Swedish Covenant, and when I walk in the door all labor stops. Like having stage fright when you have to pop a squat in a parking lot. Nothing. I'm no psycho; I didn't write my "birth plan" in blood. I didn't write it at all, in fact. So Dr. Brennan tells me I'm dilated to four and my BP is a little elevated. This makes sense to me since my pain level was about a seven for the last ten hours. She suggests we have this baby today, and a little Pitocin will make this happen. As soon as I hear the word, I know an epidural is probably in my future. Dr. B says I may not need it, we'll see how I do. I lasted two hours on the Pitocin and got the shot. What was I thinking?! I know women have babies in the field and keep working and all that bull shit, but I look around, and I am in a hospital. It's a no-brainer at this point. The important factors for my birth experience were maintained. My baby came into the world with no overhead crappy light, awesome. My "chill labor mix" was playing us soft, sweet tunes all day. And the only people there for most of the pushing were me, my hubby holding one leg and Dr. Brennan holding the other one. (There were also a few nurses in and out.) Dr. Brennan eased our little girl out with no rushing, no stress. She told me "you're super numb, so we can take our time." This means no tearing for mama, which in turn makes everyone happy! I had an amazing pregnancy, guided by the wonderful nurses and Dr. Maurice at Swedish Covenant, and a wonderful delivery experience thanks to Dr. Maura Brennan. It seems a shame to only do it once....

    LOVE Dr Brennan. She's super chill and super knowledgeable. I was highly anxious about my pregnancy…read morebut after every appointment i felt so much calmer. She's very down to earth and realistic. Very no nonsense. Me and my wife missed her hardcore after baby was born. We recommend her to everyone! Office staff is cool I don't know what the other reviewers are complaining about.
