    Baptist has a very large campus, with the women's hospital and care facilities further in (if…read morecoming from Walnut Grove). It's 6215 Humphreys Blvd if using Uber/Lyft services. MidSouth OBGYN is the building right before you get to the women's hospital, with parking right across the street. There is also a walkway directly to the women's hospital. The front areas and patient rooms are clean and have Wi-Fi access. MidSouth OBGYN does general visits, annual checkups, ultrasounds, labwork, and mammograms. Although the doctor is nice, the staff could be more welcoming.

    Easily the worst doctor I have ever seen in my life. I came in for an acute concern. After checking…read morein they had me leave a urine sample. Was never informed of what they did with it. If they ran a pregnancy test or a urinalysis on it they didn't inform me of that or the results. Then I went to have my vitals checked. When it wouldn't read the first time she had me hold my other arm in the air to check it. For anyone not in healthcare this is not a proper way to check it and skews the reading. Big shocker my blood pressure came back high but they didn't bother to recheck it properly. I then waited over a hour to see Dr. Johnson. When she came in she said oh you're here for abnormal bleeding well you've gained weight and this birth control is known to fail (1. I might have gained weight since my previous visit but my weight has been stable well before my gynecological concern started 2. I have been on this birth control for 9 years without issues). She did not ask any history regarding how long, quantity, associated symptoms etc. She also did not preform any type of exam. She then proceeded to list my options were to continue to suffer or try a new birth control and listed all the birth control options and was upset when I didn't immediately choose one. I totally understand now why people don't like doctors and why people think women's health doesn't get enough attention and it's because the women's health doctors don't care. Not to mention she previously hadn't followed the American College of Obstetricians guidelines for cervical cancer screening with Pap smears (likely so she can charge more for each visit). On a nice note the facilities are nice and nursing staff was kind.

    Dr Estepp was a nice lady. The visit with her was good all things considered. But she let me leave…read morewithout info on getting a mammogram. I called, LM, 48 hrs later I called back and the nurse said she called me....and yep, they had miskeyed my phone number - off by 1 digit. So I waited a week after my visit before following up on a referral. I called again, left message. She called me back and said I need to go to my primary care for referral. OK. I asked "Did you send my progress notes to my PCP!" She said "No, we don't know who he is." Isn't he listed on the referral? She didn't see it. Whatever. Then she asked me why I needed to see a specialist. WHAT DOES SHE DO THERE? Is it not right there in my file? Insanity! Anyway, things that were not cool on my visit: when you walk in, they slap a label on a cup and hand it to you with your clip board and expect you to hold a plastic cup until you're seen. I declined that nonsense. I literally sat in the small, crowded waiting room for 1 hr 10 minutes waiting to be seen (55 minutes past my appt time.) I did have to use the bathroom by the time I was seen and there was no soap in the bathroom!! There was an empty bottle with a little bit of water inside trying to make more soap. That's not a good look during cold and flu season much less at a doctor's office!!

He delivered my second baby and when I say that I would have 10 more babies only if Dr. Giddens don't retire by then. He was very thorough and listened to all of my concerns and helped me with issues I was experiencing.

    Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with this OB practice. I'm sharing my experience so…read morethat expecting mothers can consider whether this is the right practice for their pregnancy. TLDR: I delivered my third baby with MOGA. There were unexpected complications in L&D (a shoulder dystocia which occurred because I vaginally delivered a baby in the 99% percentile post-due-date). I attribute these complications to my OB and the office's mismanagement. This practice demonstrated an unwillingness to listen to me as a patient advocating for their needs and incompetence leading up to and post delivery. I incurred significant extra out-of-pocket medical expenses that would have been avoided if they had been able to schedule my induction for sooner. (As a note of context, my other two children were born by their due date at 7lb7oz and 6lb13oz with no complications. I had a far easier recovery with both - including my firstborn - than I did when I had MOGA as my provider for my third pregnancy, even though all three pregnancies were low risk and no complications leading up to L&D). Problems pre labor and delivery - When we moved to Memphis in my third trimester, at my first visit, I shared a concern that my dating was off and the baby was running large. I indicated at this visit that it was important to have induction scheduled by due date, if not before in the 39th week. - My OB brushed off my concerns when the baby showed large (70% percentile) in the 36th week ultrasound, suggesting it was probably smaller than the ultrasound estimated. - By the 38th week, I pushed to get induction on the calendar for week 39. It was obvious that the baby was continuing to grow, and I knew from previous L&D that I have a flat pelvis (and a small frame) - My OB said that she could schedule the induction in week 39, but then learned that she could not "because the hospital does not allow elective inductions until 40 weeks." (Memorial Baptist's website indicates that it does allow elective inductions once a patient reaches 39 weeks, but I have not called to verify) - I called them two days before I expected to go in for induction, and learned that the induction hadn't been scheduled at all (despite them saying they would schedule it after my Friday appointment the following week). The scheduler then called and was only able to get a spot for 40w6d. I called the manager in a panic to explain my concern about the large baby and non-scheduling and she told me that "they could not get the induction sooner for 'schedule convenience' when I was clearly advocating my concern that the baby was large for gestational age which could make delivery complicated. Problems in labor and delivery -When I finally was induced, when I reached 10cm and was fully effaced, the nurse called my OB to have her come to the hospital. She indicated that she needed to "see another patient in the office, and we needed to wait for her". It took her over an hour to arrive, I was in extreme pain and feeling extreme pressure even with epidural. - When I said we needed to call again because I couldn't wait to push, the OB told the nurse that I should begin pushing without an OB present, which the nurse was not comfortable doing - When she finally arrived, she had a sidebar conversation with the nurse about a mutual contact that the nurse was unfamiliar with. She was not paying close attention to me. This cavalier attitude was concerning, especially given that right after that was the shoulder dystocia. - As noted above, my daughter was 9lb 11oz. This is the 99% for girls. It was clear what I had been advocating for all along - that the office and OB kept challenging me on - was correct. Shoulder dystocia is a serious issue that causes nerve damage in babies and major pelvic floor issues in moms. I had a very difficult recovery Problems post labor delivery - I called the office post labor and delivery to report my experience, and again interfaced with Jackie (office manager) who insisted that it was the hospitals fault that they could not get me in for labor and delivery sooner (even though they did not even attempt to schedule my induction until 5 days before my due date). - A baby in the 99% percentile should be evident to an OB, especially on someone consistently indicating a concern that the baby is large for gestational age -When I explained my experience in the L&D itself, Jackie indicated that she would talk to her boss about potential recourse. - I waited two months and received no call back from her. I had to follow up with her to ask for an update, and she called back to say that she had talked to her boss and there is nothing that they plan to do and ended the call by telling me that I should actually "be thankful that they did not collect $1,000 up front for service provision" (which is far greater than the full patient responsibility) Overall, another provider might be a better option. Thanks!
