sis kulotski, if i were to change OB-GYNE mid-pregnancy, i will inform my current doctor about it. your reason is valid and if your current one is professional enough, she will understand and make your transfer of doctors a painless one.

of course you have the right to change doctors! you should be with one you will feel most comfortable with, within your budget, not so far from your place and other considerations you may deem important.

good luck!

I talked about it with my current OB na. She didn't miss a beat, basta if things don't go so well with the OB I'm gonna switch to I can switch back to her daw. Sayang nga e, I really like her pa naman kaso yun nga, budget issues lang.  And to some extent, distance din. We spend about 2 hours all in all travelling from her clinic in Greenhills every check-up because of traffic.

ayan ang problema ko .. mommy ko kasi gusto malapit sa lugar namin kaso yung hubby ko naman dito na talaga kami sa MAMC .. eh ayun gusto kasi ni mother sya kasama ko kapag magpapackeckup kaso naisip ko baka di na accurate kapag iba OB tapos sa ibang hospital ako manganganak
baka kasi magkaproblema pa ako tsaka maguguluhan sila ..

^ Astred Clarissa, it's up to you naman in the end kung lilipat ka. Can't your mom come with you sa current hospital mo? 

[Dada08]

mga mommies please help.

today ang 1st check up ko sa new OB. I'm still worried kung ano ba sasabihin ko bakit ako nagpapa consult sa kanya. Do you think she will still ask the reason?

main reason ko talaga kasi, medyo mataas quote ng current OB ko. pero sabi naman ng mother ko it's unethical naman if yun agad ibungad ko sa kanya..

Yung cousin ko kasi doctor din sa hospital ng new ob na yun, 2 of my cousins patients niya...

I changed my OB when I was on my 4^th month of my pregnancy. The main reason was my OB and her affiliated hospital was not covered by Maxicare.
 
I told her the truth and she even referred me to another OB from Medical City which is also affiliated at Lourdes Hospital. Then my first OB, Dra. Milan gave me a referral letter para bigay ko kay Dra. Sese, yung ni-refer niyang OB. Sinabi ko rin sa kanya na di nga accredited ang Medical City. Binasa niya yung history nung previous check-up from Dra. Milan.

Actually parang silang dalawa nga ang OB kasi sa kanilang dalawa pa rin ako nagpapacheck-up. Yun nga lang si Dra. Sese magpapaanak sa akin.

@Dada08, you can tell to your new OB na mas accessible yung place niya at mas afford mo yung maternity expenses. Wag mo nalang silang compare dalawa. They will not take it against you naman kasi nagsasabi kalang naman ng totoo. Just be polite lang kapag nagsasalita and don’t say “bad” things about sa previous OB mo.

[Dada08]

had my check ups w/ my new OB. she's very nice!
never siya na ask about my previous OB...  hindi nga lang siya covered ng hmo namin pero okay na din. naka 3 visits na kami sa kanya. she referred me to a cardiologist for my hypertension.  breech position si baby, sabi niya kausapin ko daw palagi para umikot at ayaw niyang mag cs delivery

hello mga sis, ako din plan ko magpalit ng OB. Im staying here in Manila right now kaya dito ako nagpapacheck up pero plan ko manganak sa province namen para don ako sa mother ko magstay. dito kc nkadorm ako eh kaya mahirap kung dito ako magstay and mas maaalagaan kami ni baby don sa province. One more thing is talagang malaki yung quote ng OB ko ngaun kahit sa ward pa. mas ok na maging practical diba. good thing is nasaken lahat ng lab results ko.

hi sis

Dra. Sese is my OB. I really love her. I gave birth last Dec 18 2011 sa JDMH via NSD. Madiskarte syang OB at gagawin niya lahat para hindi ka ma-CS. I had 2 OB before her but she accepted me with two open arms. Mabaet sya at maganda pa. 33 weeks na ako nung lumipat sa kanya pro parang 9 mos kmeng magkasama. Comfortable kase ako sa kanya, ok dn routine check up niya. She discuss to you the things  na dapat malaman mo, hehe. Lastly, pareho kameng thomasian kea siguro kampante ako.

hi mga mommies! Im on my 35th week na po.  ganito kasi., i started having my prenatal chek-up on my 2nd month in Alabang Med until my 4th month. since mahal po kasi ang NSD sa knila nghanap ako ng mas mura . Since my philhealth naman ako at voter ng muntinlupa., my landlady suggested na sa osmun ako. Then sabi niya kelangan sa center muna ko pa-chek-up para daw me record ako. So dun ako pa-chek-up  up until my 71/2 month. After that ni-refer na nila ko sa osmun since dun ko gusto manganak cause of money issues. Nakahanap naman ako ng ob na philheal accredited so ok na. Kaso nung 1st chek-up ko pinagalitan na agad ako kasi bat ngaun lang daw ako ngpa-chek-up sa kanila eh ilang ara na lang daw eh 8 mos ko na. Sinabi ko un sabi saking ng landlady ko.. medyo dismayado pa hitsura niya. Eh hindi ko naman alam na ganun pala kasi hindi naman talaga ako taga-munti and 1st time mom pa ko. Then she told me na when the time comes na manganganak na ko at marami kaming sabay-sabay., hndi ako priority since kakasimula sa kanila. Kinabahan naman ako kasi nga iniisip ko is yung budget. Since ala naman akong pinag-papa-che-upan na ibang OB. I had 2 check-ups pa with her, 81/2  mo.  ko na now. Then i was absent  last tues.  kasi sumasakit pempem ko and sakit ng likod and balakang ko . So punta ko sa kanya since me sched sya dun the next day.  hen she saw me bkit daw andun ako dapat next week pa. I told her my concer. Then that expression again ( yung parang dismayado with matching buntong hiniga) then said " ma,am that's normal in every pregnancy" and so on.... Then asked "what's the point of going here?" sabi ko un lang naman ang concern ko... She told me she can't give me medcert just for that. Eh mahigpit pa naman company namin. So wala ko nagawa. Ni-chek niya na lang heartbeat ni baby and she's fine. Eh ngaun gusto ko na sana mag PROA (prolong absene) eh kelangan ko nga ng medcert from my ob. And i needed to have her signed my sss sickness form kasi naghihinayan nga ko sa 1 month., eh nahihirapan nako sa work ko kasi pang-gabi na eh malayo pa. Pano ko pa magagawa un eh medcert lang for absence ayaw niya ko bigyan.
Pwede pa po kaya ko mag-patingin sa ibang OB?  another thing is medyo nakaka-intimidate tong OB  lalo na hen she does that dismayado look. Di alam if naiinis sya or hat. help pls.

@almirafe
Hindi po kaya kasi public hospital yun and it's a fact na pressured sila sa dami nilang pasyente? Ganun po talaga siguro, may na sasacrifice kapalit ng pagiging affordable na rate. I don't know kung pwedeng i-report ang Doctor sa pagiging masungit and not ready to help, but then it willl cause more tension on both of you lalo na kung siya ang magpapaanak sa iyo diba?
I changed OB on the last month of my 1st pregnancy kasi we like our OB but she doesn't want to do delivery on our choice of hospital kahit pwede naman sa hospital na gusto namin. Mabuti siyang kausap and sabi niya "alam ko na gusto ninyo sa akin but for your convinience I understand hindi ka pwede dito manganak sa hospital ko. Just the same, hindi din convenient sa akin magpaanak sa ibang hospital". We understand her kaya she referred us to the OB she knows sa hospital na gusto namin.


If I were you, hahanap ako ng ibang OB for a 2nd opinion sa pain na nararamdaman ko and if there's  any safe meds I can take. If given attention, ask na rin ako ng med cert. Bear in mind na baka kilala niya yung OB mo so huwag ka nang magkuwento ng makakasira. Having checked by another OB shouldn't mean na magpapalit ka ng OB ulit at siya ang magpapaanak sayo. Check up lang.

[babyrhye]

I changed my OB at 21 weeks, ok naman. Basta bring with you your lab test s/histories mo sa dating OB mo.
