I've visted Swedish for two different pregnancies. The first being for my terminally-ill son. The Perinatologists were so helpful, especially Dr. Brock. When it came time to deliver, she did her very best to make sure I could delivery vaginally rather than with a c-section which made me very happy considering our new baby spent two weeks in Swedish's NICU before being transferred to Children's.
The room I delivered in was very nice. But I was a little disappointed that they moved me after the baby was born. No doubt because he wasn't rooming in with me.
I can not praise the NICU staff enough. They were so supportive and helped us get through this difficult time in our lives. They treated our small baby with care and I trusted them 100%. Although the doctors could never give us an definite answers about our son's condition, they were still extremely helpful and did their best to figure out how to help our son.
The second time I visited was with our next baby. She wanted to come a bit early and I had to have a special operation done to keep her in. I stayed in the hospital for 3 1/2 days and the nurses and doctors all treated me with care. And with them having an anti-partum section, it helped not to have to hear new babies crying when my little one's life was at stake.
I would definitely recommed this hospital for high-risk pregnancies and child birth to any one.
