I had a terrible experience with Dr. Benoit. I went to him for first trimester screening after being referred by my OB. Being my first pregnancy I was unsure what to expect. I thought everything was going smoothly, we were watching the ultrasound of the baby on the TV screen. While I was still in a state of undress from the exam, Dr. Benoit tells us that the baby has a neural tube defect, and is non-viable. I began to cry, and Dr. Benoit left the room. I got dressed and one of his nurses ushered us into a conference room, where I was given a print out of information on the neural tube defect. Dr. Benoit went to see other patients. I was so upset I wanted to leave immediately.. I was told that I could call the office if I had further questions, but when I called I had to leave a message and never received a call back. I would advise expectant mothers to avoid Dr. Benoit, as this was an experience I never want anyone else to ever have to go through!
