All three times ive given birth with no pain meds only to be abused in the hospital by people who think they can say they delivered my baby. Why? Cause they caught it? Thats all they did. They didn't even put lube on me so I didnt tear all three times. Yakknow what I want to catch my baby for once. Last time I went down and touched the head of my baby coming out of me before I teared and the lady told me I couldn't do that. I hate these people who think theyre delivering the baby. Let me deliver my baby in peace let me catch my baby. Thats all I want to do is catch my own baby and i want nothing to do with doctors. I hate this day and age. Change your name. Let women catch there own babies.

She truly cares about both mom and baby. She supports you both physically and emotionally and puts your health first. Due to having twins I have to do a hospital birth which I wasn't expecting but I know it's for their safety which is more important. I would be an emotional wreck if it wasn't for knowing i have her by my side. Almost forgot to mention she's 30 minutes away from me and I'm more than happy to drive every minute of it because she's worth it. If you have insurance they should cover midwives as well.

Village Maternity was amazing at providing me with the birth experience I always wanted. For my…read morefirst pregnancy, I choose an OBGYN based solely on convenience. I did not do any research about the type of pregnancy and birth experience I wanted and that led to an overall negative experience. Going into this pregnancy, I wanted to make sure I had a team that would support me. The midwives and registered nurses at Village Maternity not only supported me and my decisions, but they went above and beyond. They were always easy to reach listening to all concerns, answering all my questions, and providing me with numerous educational resources. They were also very supportive of my goal to have a VBAC, and helped me successfully have one! I owe my positive pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience to Village Maternity. I am so grateful to everyone there and would recommend them to all mamas!

I feel so lucky to have found Village Maternity. They were on time for 99% of my appointments, and…read morenever rushed me once even though I frequently had 30-60 minutes worth of questions. They're evidence-based, and support natural childbirth. And they were extremely responsive via phone, email and even text 24/7. Plus, Metropolitan Hospital, where they deliver, is amazing. Every room is private (for no additional fee), they support natural delivery and don't rush your labor, and all of the doctors, nurses, and staff were extremely warm and kind.

10 stars if I could. My wife switched over to this practice in the middle of her pregnancy, given a…read morelot of unease she had at the previous practice which felt like a busy mill and her goals of having a VBAC were not shared by them. This practice was exactly what she needed. The visits were extremely thorough, she never felt for a moment that she was being rushed. She met with every doctor in the practice and each time her questions and concers were really fully addressed and she never left feeling confused or uneasy as she had at the previous practice. Raizy is an incredible person to have in your corner during pregnancy and on delivery day. She was advocating for everything my wife needed and was genuinely invested in her success. At the end of it all, Dr. Ratzersdorfer was the hero on delivery day. He really went above and beyond in paying attention to all of the small details and spent hours and a ton of effort to reposition the baby and successfully performed the VBAC that my wife wanted a fair shot at. I can't say enough good things. These folks are professional and genuinely good people who run a traditional medical practice the way it should be, before corporate medicine took everything over and ruined the field. Good medicine still exists!

I had my son with Dr Giovine in April, and I truly believe that if it wasn't for Dr G, I would have…read morehad an emergency C section. My son ended up being over 8 pounds and his head was completely turned to the side when it came time to deliver him. After three hours of pushing, we needed to start considering that I wasn't going to be able to push the baby out. Dr G gave me my options- we could attempt a forceps delivery, a vacuum assisted delivery, or go ahead with a C section. I was aware that forceps delivery is often unsuccessful/ risky, but the OB nurses told me in secret that often forceps fail because the doctors don't use them properly/ have enough experience with them. Long story short, I trusted Dr G to assist with forceps, and my son shot out on the first try. While Dr G has an amazing reputation, he also has the experience and the skill to back it up. If you are delivering a baby, you should absolutely consider him I also need to give Dr Moghe credit- she had to do a surgical procedure on me prior to my son's birth and I came out of the procedure without pain or complications (and it was not an easy procedure, I was unconscious and in the operating room in the hospital and everything). She knows what she is doing and is very good at it! I absolutely trust her. The only negative thing I can say is that once I was in the hospital for an early labor scare and Dr Bohnert had to keep checking to see how dialated I was.. let's just say that she was wearing gloves that were baggy/ too large for her and didn't barely use any lubricant (she might have actually not used any at all). It was unnecessarily uncomfortable in a memorable way! Especially after the 3rd time in one morning. Have mercy!

My wife went into labor at 33 weeks. Dr. Tesheva in the hospital made my wife feel as if she was a nuisance, she told her that she is and I quote " taking up beds from other patients". After realizing that she was indeed in labor she did not check on her once until her shift was over. After a year and a half trying to figure out what happened. Countless calls, voicemails canceled appointments to see Dr G we finally manage to get an appointment. We waited 2 hours in the waiting room, we were the last person to be seen! Dr G refused to go over her chart, answer questions and provided the worst possible treatment plan. After consulting with other OB's it is clear as day this practice is falling apart, getting old and lost its care. Stay away and protect your family!

Next day I find out that after that entire ordeal, they never even faxed the prescriptions and now I have to wait another month to get my tests done.

That only shows she sees the world as US vs THEM. That's what the person running the business is telling you. Not trusting me because of NY plates but I have a deed and can prove residency and that nobody else has rented this place . Look at all the details she asked me to try to prove me wrong and deny me service. Downgrading to 1. She has a communication problem. Lacks the patience to be the person running a business but maybe it's great doing the work. Choose your battles.
