If you're looking for a midwife for your first homebirth or if you've gone this route before and…read moreneed assistance with your 3rd homebirth (like I did) --- I couldn't recommend Rachel highly enough. As I mentioned, this was my 3rd homebirth-- which means I had 2 other children to think about during this past pregnancy and lugging them around to prenatal appointments was not on my wish list. That was one reason Rachel was our *perfect* midwife. She not only delivered our baby in our home but all of my prenatals and blood work were done in my home too!! It was so incredibly convenient and my husband loved that we could schedule them on the weekend so that he didn't have to miss anything. Now, more about Rachel.... Rachel has such a calm, sweet energy. She is probably one of the most patient and soft spoken people I have ever met! At every appointment I really felt listened to and she took the time to answer all of my questions. When it came time to actually deliver our little girl, Rachel had given us the birth pool a couple weeks prior so, my husband set it up in our bedroom. Rachel and her assistant arrived promptly after an hour or so of texting her about the length and frequency of my contractions. My daughter was born about 45 minutes or so after Rachel arrived. It was such a relaxing (yes relaxing!), laid back, and beautiful experience. There's something about floating in a birthing pool that makes it incredibly less intense. - I felt my water break while I was in the pool (Rachel by my side outside the pool), and then I felt the urge to push and my daughter came right out. Rachel put a towel on her as I pulled her up to my chest. It was so quick and calm. Then we moved to the bed and Rachel and her assistant cleaned up everything and made us as comfortable as could be. After the birth all the postpartum visits were at my house too! Which was amaaazing because who wants to take their newborn out for check ups those first few weeks?! Hands down it was the BEST home birthing experience I've had and we will definitely be hiring her when we're expecting again. ((Just submitted the claim to my insurance and will update about that when we have an answer.))

He's…read morecurrently battling cancer and his doctor at UCLA has been taking great care of him but this came out of no where. He was seen after waiting longer than he should have for chest pain. They did some lab work and did some CT scans. He arrived a little after 10am and was not seen by a doctor go to over his results and stuff until after 3pm. They finally admitted him because of fluid build up on the lungs. The nurses were very kind and attentive while we were there with him, that's the reason I gave them a second star. However, he was there for almost 3 days and barely got any sleep. He said the nurses at the desk were watching videos or something and he could hear their videos and them laughing all night on top of them having to come check his blood sugar and everything every 2 hours. That part is fine, they should be checking regularly but keeping patients up by laughing and watching videos is crazy. When he was in the hospital at UCLA they turned out the lights at night and the nurses never made a sound other than walking around to check on patients. I'm an Adventist patient myself and I really like my GP but this hospital needs to get some things in better order. The lobby looks dirty, only 1 elevator works right now, there is just a lot going on that needs improvement. Hopefully they get it together and make some positive changes soon.

As written for an article I wrote for the Bakersfield Voice in 27 November 2008:…read more --- "I went into my new dietitian with fear and doubt in my heart. I came out with hope. She was totally young and friendly, and was definitely healthy (at least by all outward appearances). Although she has never had an eating disorder, she took me seriously, and told me she has worked with eating disordered patients for 8 years. After getting her BS in dietetics, she attempted to start her internship, but they had none available. So she decided to get involved in a research project where she surveyed youths about eating disorder behaviours. From that, she started a healthy body image and eating disorder seminar that she would give in health classes. To me, this is so awesome because this is exactly what I want to do some day- I want to work with adolescents with eating disorders as a dietitian, as I began to exhibit eating disordered behaviours when I was ~ 8 years old myself. Of course, her past experience touched my heart. Then she said that doing all the research really interested her in helping those with eating disorders, but she didn't know where to go in Bakersfield to do so. Well, she found a therapist (Katherine Smith- the woman I was supposed to be seeing now, but she had to refer me to another therapist as she is resigning from her practise) and they began working together 8 years ago. She was completely open and honest and we even went over a small meal plan (not too overwhelming) to start me back on the road to recovery. She honestly listened to everything I had to talk about. Hilariously enough, she doesn't like my previous dietitian either, and even cracked a joke about her. Heheheh. So that totally put me at ease that we were on the same page. And get this (and this REALLY had me reeling): SHE was the one who brought up the tube, after she had heard that I had an NG at Remuda Ranch. She said she really recommended me for the PEG this time as it would be more long-term and wouldn't be so obvious (like the NG, for example). I was shocked that she would bring it up without me asking that I started tearing up. So she wanted me to work on the meal plan, call the surgeon tomorrow ("he's a young, hip Indian doctor- I think you'll like him"), and then call her about when the appointment is. I'm just...shocked and a little scared. But happy that I've found someone who just listens, who isn't talking about their past, who wants to move forward, and who is on the same page. Thanks, Diane Campbell, for restoring my faith." --- Edit, as of 3 March 2009: Just wanted to update this article, as it was written nearly 5 months ago. Diane is still my dietitian, and I credit her greatly for my continuing motivation (though, of course, fighting the behaviours has not been all sunshine and rainbows, you know?). What's more is that, unlike any other professionals I've seen, she is constantly in contact with me- by phone calls, e-mail, and even text message (on my cell phone). However, I'd like to point out that she does NOT cross professional boundaries, and makes sure not to just become an "expensive friend with some good advice." I also really appreciate that she doesn't just throw some random "healthy meal plan" at me, and expect me to just do it. Right now, for example, even though the amount I am eating is, by any "normal" standards, much too low, she realises that any more would not be "safe" for me, and just wants me to slowly challenge myself to build up to something healthier. Diane Campbell has given me a chance that others did not.
