I was just on the web looking up Kathleen Slone's number, since we are moving back to the area and I'm pregnant with my 8th, when I ran across the ""horrible"" review of her practice. If someone is looking for medical interventions which, in themselves, have been known to greatly increase the chance of pregnancy and birth complications (including C-sections which are at a horrible and unnecessary all-time high of 29.1% of all births now in this country)--GO TO A REGULAR OB/GYN. Kathleen Slone delivered my 5th and 6th baby, and these were some of my best birth experiences. I recommend midwives, in general, to any woman I care about since I truly believe they have the best interests of the woman and baby at heart and their experience will more likely be one they will like to remember. Kathleen, in particular, has been around for quite a while and knows what she is doing. She's one of the best!
