This was the worst most cringe experience I have ever had with any midwife and I have been to…read moreseveral. At the front desk, they are sane and kind, but it's all downhill from there. The midwife walks around barefoot and recommends that pregnant women drink gallons and gallons of unpasteurized cows milk which everybody know is clinically dangerous. It can lead to serious foodborne illnesses due to dangerous bacteria, including Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, and Campylobacter. Bird flu can even lurk in it. This midwife seemed not care about pregnant people's personal privacy and lets her student-midwives cross examine you like detectives whether you like it or not you're stuck. This midwife treated me in a condescending manner and was very dismissive of my input. I have met narcissists who have behaved similarly in the past. After the experience I was shocked, appalled, disappointed, confused, and completely felt bamboozled. All in all I would say if you care about your life, STEER VERY CLEAR of this place.

I've been going to this location for many years, and the service used to be excellent. However,…read moresince mid-2023, it has significantly declined--from the nurses to the nurse practitioners to the doctors. They now recommend too many unnecessary tests and biopsies that cost thousands of dollars and go straight to the deductible. This has left me feeling frustrated, untrusting, and disappointed. I no longer have a reliable OB-GYN I can turn to, someone who knows my history and offers thoughtful care before jumping to procedures. Being in my mid-60s, I know I need good care, but sadly, I won't find it at this practice. To make matters worse, most women's health practices in Tidewater have merged into one physician group. Their approach seems clear: more tests, more procedures, and less personalized care. Trust your gut feeling - take care and be aware of what I shared.

I'm still starry eyed from my visit to River City Midwifery earlier today. I delivered my son with…read moreanother midwifery practice that has since disbanded. In the last two years, I've bounced from office to office, trying to find a place for routine care where I felt at peace and at home. The difference in care that you receive from midwifery practice vs regular OBGYN is astounding. I already knew that from my past experience, but today's appointment with Adrianna from River City Midwifery sealed the deal. I was warmly greeted as soon as I got out of the car by Adrianna. She took my appointment outside on a patio underneath twinkling lights. I was already at home. We had a conversation about what has been going on with me since I gave birth a little over two years ago. When people say babies change everything about your body, they're not lying. I've been struggling ever since and haven't been able to pinpoint exactly what was going on with me. I walked Adrianna through my whole journey up to today. She listened, took notes, and empathized. When I told her I'd done my own research, she didn't scoff or judge or make passive aggressive comments about Googling. She commended me for doing what I'd done up to that point and agreed with the tests that I thought I needed. Let me say that again. She agreed with the tests that I thought I needed. I have asked multiple doctors to test me for certain things and have been met with excuses or been flat out told no. I felt instantly advocated for and taken care of in that moment. After we finished talking, she brought me inside and drew my blood herself for labs. She allowed me to lay down and calmly talked me through the process, as I'm squeamish with blood draws. Afterward, she gave me a quick tour of the birth center. It was magical, cozy, comfy, and everything any woman would want while giving birth. I've already made the decision to stay with River City Midwifery for well woman care and any future babies that I am blessed with. So thankful for them!

Third time to leave a review since my Google reviews keep mysteriously disappearing…read more It's difficult to write this review because our actual birth with the team here was amazing and everything we wanted it to be. However, the care, or rather lack thereof, that my wife and I received outside of the actual birth needs to be shared so it doesn't happen to someone else. In our prenatal visits we let it be known multiple times that we did not want to know the sex of our baby until birth. During one of our appointments one of the midwives used she/her pronouns when referring to our baby...part way through I said "wait is that the sex of the baby? we said we didn't want to know that"...the midwife quickly backpedaled and said "oh I didn't realize I had done that, I use different pronouns interchangeably when people don't want to know the sex". Needless to say we had a girl, and given what happened with our post natal care we are pretty certain this midwife slipped and revealed that information to us. Again, our actual labor experience with River City Midwifery went beautifully however the postpartum care was a bit troubling. During one postpartum visit I felt shamed by a midwife for using a nipple shield to nurse my baby, which was recommended by our pediatrician and was the only way my baby could latch. My 6 week follow up appointment seemed to fall through the cracks. I was never seen which was a big miss given I hemorrhaged during birth and was having postpartum anxiety (which was expressed to the midwives). Our baby was hospitalized when she was 3 1/2 months, the midwives knew about this (as they stated in an email "through the grapevine", which feels incredibly gossipy and hurtful) and did not reach out to check on us. Still to this day our baby has health issues and no one from River City Midwifery has reached out. We reached out via email after our baby was discharged from her 11 day hospital stay to share with the midwives what was going on with her and to express concern that I never had a follow up visit with them which is when they replied saying they had heard she was hospitalized and didn't think it was appropriate to reach out. They also put the blame for not having a follow up visit on us saying we never scheduled one. This is something they should have been on top of, new parents or even one's with children already and have a newborn really shouldn't be responsible for this, they already have enough on their plate and it was included as part of the birth package we purchased. Furthermore when we responded back to them and stated that we felt abandoned and would possibly be seeking follow up care elsewhere, they said nothing, and did not take any opportunity to even try to make things right. After posting a Google Review in September, it suddenly went missing. Reposted the exact same review in November and was deleted again. Big red flags. At the end of the day, we feel we were patient dumped and my wife and I are still processing how this happened. We clearly were under the wrong impression of the care we expected to receive - it shouldn't have dropped once our baby was born. This was the biggest moment of our lives and to walk away feeling abandoned has been immensely painful. It is a big deal. To anyone who may be considering this care provider, please remember to advocate for your health and if something feels off, trust it, this is not the place we thought we'd feel dismissed. Hoping there are improvements to the care future clients/babies/families receive here.

I've been going to that practice for over 20 years, first as a patient of Dr. Nottingham, who was…read morewonderful but has since retired, then I saw Rachel Rottenberry, who was equally wonderful but has left the practice. I decided to stay with the practice for my first visit with Whibley. There clearly was a scheduling issue because they didn't have my appointment recorded. Front office staff was smug and unapologetic. Dr. Whibley was asked if she could try to fit me in, and from behind the half wall I heard a voice say something about not taking 'walk-ins' (as if this were what, a clinic? The hair cuttery? I've been going there for years!) The receptionist came from around the half wall and said the doctor couldn't, she had a meeting. The fact they were unapologetic and smug is what put me over the edge, to be clear. I looked in my phone log to see when I communicated with the office, which turned out to be a day the office was closed- my error- that was then not the day the appointment was scheduled. I have several record of calls to and from that office this summer, I chose the wrong one, as I soon found out. The office called me...yes CALLED ME as I got into my car to say I can't blame them because the date from my phone log I provided was a day the office was closed, so there's no way I made the appointment that day. I cancelled my rescheduled appointment right then and will not be going there. I received email notification later that day that my online medical record had been deleted. I've never actually met Dr. Whibley, and I never will. I'm glad others find her to be worth the their time. But you may want to check and double check and call and text and email and snail mail to make sure they actually recorded the appointment they gave you over the phone.
