Their staff is so courteous and helpful. They don't rush through your appointment or make you feel like they're running between patients. They're clean and organized, I never wait for long.

The office staff easy to work with and they all take the time to answer any questions that came up. Fast forward to "Labor" day. Over the 25 hour labor I experienced I had the pleasure of working with Jenny S and Nicole both of whom made a lengthy and exhausting process a beautiful one. I felt very vulnerable during labor. Both of the midwives and the nurses made me feel at ease and well cared for while keeping my dignity in tact! I am so grateful to these women for helping us safely welcome our beautiful baby boy into this world!

I have to agree that this is a ROCKIN alternative medicine store…read more They not only carry nearly everything you could want or need for natural healing, but they are also very informed and helpful. Great Essential oil selection. You can buy it by the bottle or by the drop. (a little goes a long way) Lots of homeopathics. LOTS! They had tons of supplies for midwives and doulas. Plenty of kids stuff too. I'm so glad I found this little gem. BTW...It's tucked in DEEP off the road. I passed it twice but they talked me in on the phone.

I took a class with one of the owners, Beth, when I was pregnant. When I visited her store, I was…read moreamazed at the selection they have for natural parenting. They have breast pumps and comfortable breastfeeding bras, holistic supplies, and books. They also offer classes such as Vegetarian and Pregnant, Baby Sign Language, Infant Massage, Vaginal Birth After Cesaerian, and many more. They are very supportive of mothers who will homebirth or who have homebirthed babies. I feel it is important to say this because I think sometimes there is a stigma attached to women who choose natural childbirth at home. I especially love their breastfeeding room where they have a breastfeeding group that meets regularly. Everyone who works there is incredibly helpful, especially Beth. I was concerned about post partum depression, and she took me aside and helped me with finding resources. She spent a lot of time one on one with me so I could talk about my concerns. One cool thing is that Beth helped formulate a holistic remedy just for me. It helps calm me if I am feeling panicky. Whether it is a placebo or not, all I know is that it works!

It's been about 4 years now that I have seen Dr. Dendrinos for routine annual exams. One thing I…read moreappreciate is that they have 7:30am appointments so that I don't have to take time off work. They are always fast and the rooms are clean. I haven't had a child or anything complicated, but they have taken good care of me for my basic needs. There have been occasions where a student would tag along, which can be a little awkward. I always let them stay because medical school residency is hard enough to get through anyway.

My second pregnancy was here and I had the most pleasant and fantastic experience. Great staff,…read moreclean facility and I loved the ambience. All my appointments were on-time and I had been appointed with some of the best clinicians and staff. Throughout my pregnancy, I had consulted staff from multiple departments in this campus (Dietitians, RNs, Midwifes, Speciality Drs, Triage technicians). They were all so friendly and pleasant. They respect your privacy and put patients at ease. I also love their patient portal and their quick response. Special mention about Nurse Brittani, she was all through my labour. She was very comforting, supportive and motivating throughout my stay. Her shift ended early in the morning but luckily she had extended her shift and stayed back until I delivered. The kindness and caring spirit was so comforting. THANK YOU Brittani, YOU WERE AWESOME !! I really appreciate your help. I received constant attention throughout my delivery. Even after delivery, series of specialists (Anesthesiologists, pediatrician, gynecologist and lactation specialist) visited multiple times and made sure I was comfortable. Every single one of them was compassionate and respectful. I felt safe throughout my delivery. Great team and high quality service. They also provide healthy healing program after delivery and go extra mile to ensure that all your health concerns are resolved. Very impressed with the hygiene and prompt service. I'm super impressed and highly recommended this facility !! Excellent in every way. You all rock.. Double thumbs up !!

Great OBGYN practice and has processes in place to keep running smoothly. I have been to other…read morehealth providers in the past but UOM is outstanding. The receptionists are incredibly friendly and very helpful. They are prompt with check-in and I rarely wait longer than 10 minutes in the waiting area. Dr. Frost is always kind, non-judgmental, straight to point and understanding. I'm very much impressed by the way she answers all my questions in timely manner through the patient portal. She make sure I'm comfortable and well informed throughout my appointments. She have bent over backwards for me on several occasions. I absolutely love her and every interaction I have had with her. She takes her time, explaining and answering all of your questions. If you are looking for OBGYN, I would highly recommend Dr. Frost and UOM, to enjoy the greatness of this place !

I saw Exie for a prenatal massage and was so satisfied that I will definitely be coming back for…read morefuture massages for back and shoulder pain. The long drive is totally worth it. Exie is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about her work. I was shocked (in a good way!) that the consultation before the massage was quite thorough and did not cut into our hour of massage time. I hadn't experienced this anywhere else; the amount of time you pay for at Tranquil Touch is the amount of time that you are actually on the table being massaged. Exie was very receptive to what type of massage I wanted, any injuries I had, and what areas were causing problems, and tailored the session to meet those needs. She made me feel very comfortable, both physically and emotionally. I can't recommend her more highly!

EXCELLENT prenatal massage! Exie is professional, comforting, and the massage felt very…read morepersonalized and thorough. She has a prenatal table with a cutout/basket to support the belly, so I was able to lay on my stomach for the first portion (at 38 weeks pregnant this is the best thing ever!) I went in with a lot of tension, soreness, and stiffness in my hips and low back (pretty typical pregnancy aches and pains) and left feeling very close to normal and tension-free. I've also had more energy all day since receiving the massage. The office is decorated really nicely - clean, modern, and calming. She played relaxing music during the massage and the temperature was very comfortable in the room. Her location is easy-to-find and there was a reserved parking space for massage clients just outside the door. I plan to return for a post-natal massage and highly recommend Exie's massage services to all pregnant women looking for some relief and relaxation. I'm already working with another birth doula, but if I were still looking, I would certainly consider hiring Exie as my doula.

Unbelievably grateful for the care I received with the amazing Midwives & Nurses at ABC. It was…read morebasically word of mouth that I was encouraged to switch from Women's First in Royal Oak and delivering at Beaumont to The ABC. And I honestly can't express how extraordinary my labor experience was. The level of care provided to me and my beautiful son was unmatched. When I was a patient at Women's First - I felt there was very little attention paid to educating first time parents and the overall care was very industrialized (even from the Midwife) it's basically churning out care and I have really heard negative things about the coldness of care at Beaumont. Without getting too deep into the details - I had a very long labor (30+ hours) - ended up getting drugs - and pushed for 4 straight hours. Every step of the way my hand was held by the beautiful woman of the ABC (Midwives Emily, Andrea, Danielle and Nurses Christy & Jesse) all supported me like family - joined by our doula (Metro Detroit Doula Service (a must) and my husband. It was difficult and unbelievable all wrapped in one huge life changing experience. We also were so well cared for after the fact in the wonderful ABC (we stayed 2 nights) and I really believe the success my son & I have had with breastfeeding is due to the great guidance of the nurses. I wish more women/families knew this is how your birth experience should/can be. I will sing their praises forever and hope they understand the valuable place they have within our family. It seems amazing care is rare these days. If you're thinking about the ABC you're in the best hands.

Carol Schultheis was great. She was nothing but good to me during my first months of pregnancy…read more However, during the course of my care, I decided to go elsewhere. I was looking for very personal care, and I thought I would get that from a midwife. Carol is a midwife, but she is associated with the University Hospital, meaning she has someone she answers to. She could not do a home birth. Also, my care was not as personal as I liked, talking to her I got the idea that she could not quite remember me each time I saw her. I would ask her questions and they would contradict what I was comfortable with. The last straw came when I got tested positive for Group B Strep and she told me I would automatically have to get antibiotics when I went into labor and be strapped to an IV!!! That opens a can of worms I didn't want to have happen -- which includes giving birth on my back as opposed to using alternative positions, and also introducing antibiotics into my body, which can cause problems with breastfeeding. That was a no go for me. I changed my care and went to different midwives who said that was not necessary and I had a great home birth.

Jill and her team are just beyond incredible. She is knowledgeable, professional, compassionate,…read morepatient, kind, and trustworthy! Throughout my whole pregnancy I felt completely at ease and never stressed. I felt she set me up to win and fully believed in me. She supported me during my birth and without her I wouldn't have gotten my VBAC! She never left my side during the whole process. Even in the postpartum period she's a calming presence.

From the owner: I am a home birth midwife who specializes in normal. I follow a pregnant woman from early pregnancy…read morethrough six weeks post partum for her and the baby. I do routine prenatal appointments, focusing on great nutrition to help both the woman and her baby. I believe that women can be greatly empowered during this season of life. I walk alongside the woman, never dictating what should or should not be done. I encourage women to exercise, eat a healthy diet and have a positive attitude. I offer water births for each of my clients. It is called a midwifes natural epidural. I am fully trained in neonatal resuscitation and all birth emergencies. I keep my skills sharp by attending births in Haiti at a non-profit free clinic called MamaBaby Haiti. I go at least once a year to serve the Haitian women. I am also part of the organization by being in charge of all the volunteers that go over and I keep the supplies current at the clinic. I trust birth and trust the Mama and baby.
