After a less than perfect birth experience with my first child, I decided midway thru my second pregnancy that I needed to find an OB that would better suit my needs and preferences. Wow! I loved every practitioner I saw and had an amazing birth. With my first pregnancy I felt like my OB and the nurses in L&D thought I was kidding when I said I wanted to have a natural birth and avoid all pain meds. I kept getting the patronizing ""We've heard that before"" type treatment. The first time I met Dr. Sebestyen I explained to her my previous experience and that I had managed to fight off the doctors and nurses and had an unmedicated birth, but that it had been a struggle to do so. She was supportive off the bat, and after meeting Dr. Campaigne and the midwives, I felt very comfortable that no matter who was on call when I went into labor I was going to get the type of birth I wanted. The front office was a little bit shaky when I first when in, but they have definitely ironed out all the wrinkles and operate with ease now! As I mentioned in the title, I felt compelled to not only give the midwife who delivered my son a gift, but also made fudge to take to them at my postpartum visit last week. I had never felt like taking a gift to any doctor I had seen before (and usually dread going), but these ladies go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and it shows. I have an appointment to go in next month for an IUD and I will be baking something for them then too!
Pros: Friendly, supportive professional staff.
Cons: Parking can sometimes be tough.
