I can't recommend Angela highly enough! She went above and beyond all expectations. She came to the…read morehospital at 7am to help us advocate for ourselves and help us decide between an induction or repeat c section at just 34 weeks. We chose induction and sent her home for a while as we knew it was going to be a long day. She kept continuous contact via text and made the call to come back on her own once my waters had broken. At that point I was handling contractions great, but within an hour of her arrival they intensified quickly, like she knew exactly when I would need her. She was a continuous calming presence for me, helped my husband in supporting me, and provided a barrier between me and the constant interruption of doctors and nurses checking in. When baby started having scary heart decels she remained calm and warned me a lot of people were about to come into the room and what was happening. Despite knowing things weren't going the way I wanted her demeanor helped me remain calm. The call was made to have a repeat c section. Angela accompanied us to the OR for a 2-ish hour surgery as I had so much scar tissue from prior c sections. Our preemie was born an hour in and my husband followed her to the NICU. Angela stayed with me holding my hand and telling me what was happening almost the entire time, only leaving my side when I requested her to get an update on my baby. She followed me to recovery and stayed until I was ready for her to leave. My husband had been concerned about whether a doula would be "worth it" in the event of a c section, and I can confidently say she was worth every penny and I would do it all over again. In fact, if we didn't live so far away (almost 2 hours) I would hire her for postpartum care as well. She has continued to remain in contact during our NICU stay, checking in on me, my healing, my mental state, and asking about baby. We love Angela and are so grateful for the love and care she provided us through this beautiful and scary experience.

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!

She takes her job very seriously & is always going the extra mile to make sure her patients feel comfortable and all of your questions are met. I can literally come in with a list 15 questions and she happily answers them, taking her time and making sure we are on the same page. Many other doctors usually try to rush you out. There are no words to explain how exceptional she has been with us & our daughter. We will be taking all of our children to her. Another bonus is she is a lactation specialist & will help you with BF if needed. The office is also very professional & respectful. Wait time is always short & they are all very kind! I've never loved a doctor (and office) so much! I strongly recommend Dr. Anna Strumba.

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!

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.

(Obviously this review is for other ladies. Men, go away)…read more I have been going to this office since I was about 16 years old, seeing the same OB/GYN the whole time (Dr. Hrzencik). Obviously in the past it was for normal female wellness appointments, to get birth control, etc. She is very kind, understanding and knowledgeable. I opted to get an IUD about 6 years ago instead of continuing birth control pills (I never can remember to take those things, lol). And while I was warned it would hurt like no pain I had ever felt, I was totally unprepared for the firey hot poked that my cervix dilating feels like. An MA had to come in just to hold my hand. Recently, my husband and I have been seeing her for OB appointments (yay!), but we have had to go through the less than thrilling process of having a miscarriage in the beginning of the second trimester. It is not a fun process by any means, but Dr. H and her staff have made me feel welcome to call with any questions or concerns, and have been calling to double check on me, because it really is a crappy situation. They were very kind and thoughtful when they had to tell us, and have made sure to give us all the information they can about our situation. I know they're have our best interests at heart and are not happy when they have to deliver news like that. tl;dr Dr. H is wonderful and very kind, even when she has to give you bad news. I've never felt uncomfortable or unwelcome here, and always felt like I could call with any questions, good or bad.

She is also very personable, comforting and knowledeable. Quick to smile, shakes your hand and makes certain all your questions are answered. Even the ones you did'nt know to ask.

She is the best doctor I have ever had, let alone the best OB/GYN…read more I have been seeing Dr. Crooks for over 3 years and have delivered both my children through her practice. First of all, she is an incredibly knowledgeable doctor. She is up-to-date on the most current recommendations and practices, and never had trouble answering any of my questions. Also, she has a wonderful bedside manner. She is very friendly and very professional. She always comes in, shakes your hand and smiles at you. She sits down and asks how you're doing and then, more importantly, LISTENS to your answer. She never seems to be in a rush to get out of the room, and yet somehow manages to run on time most days. She never makes you feel stupid for asking any question (and you have a lot when you're pregnant!). I delivered my first child with her, and it was a wonderful experience. My husband (who has a general dislike for most doctors) couldn't say enough about her and how great she was. I delivered my second baby with one of the other doctors in the practice, and he was good too. But I wish she'd been on call for that delivery because I preferred her. Her staff is fantastic. The nurses are so sweet and friendly and put you at ease immediately. The receptionists are also great. I actually found myself missing them when I had my baby and didn't have to go in monthly (weekly at the end) for check-ups. I joked with them that I missed them so much that I got pregnant again quickly so I could see them more often. I would (and have) recommend Dr. Crooks to many of my friends and family. I am so glad I found a good OB/GYN at last!
