As a first time mother and my first time being pregnant, I turned to Dr. Lobaugh, my medical professional, for guidance and assistance with any questions about my pregnancy. He was not informative in any way or helpful throughout my time as his patient. When asking simple questions like "are there any foods I should stay away from?", Lobaugh simply responded with "just eat healthy"...... His responses were never informative or helpful and extremely vague, as this is my first pregnancy I want to know as much information as possible. He never had proper bedside manners when handling my care which made me feel uncomfortable. We wanted to schedule an appointment prior to my husband deploying at 16-18 weeks to see if we could find out the gender, and when we went for our next appointment with those expectations his response was "let me see if there is a room available.", as if he had forgotten that HE said we would try and find out. When he scheduled the same thing once more, the same thing happened. I told him "you said we would try and find out the baby's gender this time again." His response was, "oh yeah, we can." he had obviously not made any notes or set up the appointment for us to be in the ultrasound room like we agreed to. When doing a specific genetic testing, no one cared to check if my insurance would cover the testing or at least inform me that I would have to come out of pocket - which I would have been fine with, had I known - and I was left with an unexpected bill in the mail. After doing said testings, he never had actual documentation of my lab work and never remembered that we even DID those labs. It was as if he went into the appointment without reviewing my charts or prior lab work that had been done. I always had to ask "so how did my results come out?" His response was always "oh, fine." As if he wasn't really sure because he didn't check - that is merely an assumption. I have switched to a different facility and even the staff there have made faces at me saying that he was my previous doctor because other patients have complained about him as well, that he made them feel uncomfortable and all together didn't provide good care. I even had a nurse say she worked with him and it wasn't a pleasant experience at all. With all that being said, I wouldn't recommend Dr. Mark Lobaugh to ANYONE, I gave the man multiple opportunities to not give off a bad impression but I couldn't see past it. read more
