Congrats! I also see Dr. Riegel. He has delivered my 2nd child via c-section and will be delivering my 3rd as well. He is the only doctor in the practice. His staff is awesome. He doesn't rush you at all and he gives an ultrasound on your first 8 week visit!

Hey, S.!

I, and four other friends of mine who live on my street, all go to the same OBGYN. Her name is Dr. Broderick-Thomas, and she practices out of Presbyterian of Plano. She has delivered all of our children (my friends', too.), and she recently performed a major surgery on me.

She has always been incredibly attentive and supportive.

Hope this helps! ...and congratulations on the baby!

Best Wishes!

I would highly recommend Dr. HARPER at Centennial Medical center. She delivered by daughter who arrive at 32wks unexpectedly and she was amazing. She remained calm which help keep me and my husband from freeking out. Since I had my daughter, I have referred my sister and sister-in-law to her. She is kind, compassionate, and very knowledgable!! I love her office staff her are always very helpful and provide everything you need in one place (sono, lab, in office procedures). I don't think I can same more good things about her than I trusted the birth of my daughter, two nieces, and two nephews to her. LOVE HER.

I live in Plano and have an amazing doctor! I am almost 15 weeks. I only went to this doctor one time before I found out I was pregnant, and I love him! His name is Berry Fleming. Here is his website:
http://www.personalizedwomenshealthcare.com/physicians/be...
He delivers at Plano Presby and Baylor Frisco. He is a very sweet and caring man. He seems to be all about the patient, and I love that! Congrats on your pregnancy, and I hope whoever you choose treats you and baby right!
Also, I have an apparently mysterious pain in my right side I have had for 5 years. I have been to numerous doctors over the years and have undergone a variety of tests. He is the first doctor I've been to that actually has some ideas!!! It is very exciting! He does a lot of research, so he knows! :) As soon as my baby is born, we're going to figure this pain out and get rid of it I hope!

I see Dr. Alan Greenberg with Health Central Women's Care (www.healthcentralobgyn.com). With my first pregnancy 8+ years ago, my husband was a surg tech at Baylor Richardson and he asked around about who other doctors respected and thought was very competent and that's how we came up with Dr. Greenberg. He was rated as one of DFW's best in D Mag last fall. I ended up being C-section and it's when you get in those situations that you want someone who is not only a good doctor but a good surgeon. He's extremely proactive with any of my pregnancy issues and no detail goes unattended. I'm in the third trimester of my 4th pregnancy now. ( : He's now out in Frisco, by the way, and practices/delivers at Centennial Medical Center. There are also a couple other female doctors in the practice that I hear are good. Good luck!!

I have had all four of my babies with Dr. Suzette Boyd. She has been wonderful. I really appreciate that she is the only doctor in her practice so there will be no surprises on delivery day when an associate doctor arrives to deliver your baby. Dr. Boyd has 4 children herself so she has lots of firsthand experience with childbirth and pregnancy. She delivers at both Presby Plano and Baylor Frisco. I have delivered at both hospitals and had positive experiences both places, but Baylor Frisco has lots of extra bells and whistles like a beautiful embroidered blanket to take home, lobster & steak dinner for mom and dad after the birth, lovely birthing suites, and a goodie bag packed full of nifty items at the hospital tour. Best wishes on your delivery!

I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Eisenberg. He has a Frisco office and a Plano office. His nurses are excellent and he is a great doctor. He's been my OB/GYN for over 12 years and has delivered all 3 of my kiddos (my 10 year old who was 2 weeks early and my preemie twins who were 6 weeks early). He has also helped me with a couple of different medical issues like a hysterectomy, recent endometriosis in my abdomen. I can't say enough wonderful things about him. Good luck with your pregnancy.

S.,

Everyone's idea of "good" is different. What are you looking for?

Are you planning on a c-section? If so, choose someone out of Presby Plano, since they have a 60% c-section rate and the doctors there seem to be VERY knowledgeable in how to promote and perform c-sections.

Are you looking for a more natural experience? If so, then you might love the Allen Birthing Center. They have birthing tubs.

The backup physician practice for the birth center might be another option if you really really really feel you have to be in a hospital for the safety of you and your infant (even though statistics don't support this common misconception). I don't recall the name of the practice, but they are in the McKinney area. The birth center can give you more info. This physician practice also has a midwife to assist with a birth in the hospital.

Good luck!

Hi S.,

Congratulations! I don't know if this would be convenient for you but Dr. Elise Harper at Centennial Medical Center in FRISCO is AWESOME! I have referred several friends to her and they can't say enough good things. I had seen SEVERAL OB's in the past and none can top Dr. Harper. I also like that she doesn't beat around the bush and is straight up honest about everything. One great thing about her too is that she is only ONE of several doctor's in the Dallas area that has performed a series of VBAC's which to me shows she is willing to work with her patients in terms of their personal choices. Last July she performed my friend's VBAC and she can't say enough great things about Dr. Harper and how knowledgeable, supportive and patient she is and my friend is ONE of the MOST pickiest of person's I know :-)

All in all, you still have time to check out all the recommendations the mom's have given you to make an informed decision about a care provider that you are comfortable with. Good Luck on your search!!

I have seen Dr. Garner at Northlake OBGYN for years. I LOVE him. I am a nurse and several, several other nurses I work with recommended him to me. I wasn't sure about going to a male OB at first but he really puts you at ease. I have had 1 pregnancy/delevery with him as my doctor and although I had all kinds of issues and she was a premie I always felt I was in good hands. Presby Plano is a great hospital to deliver at and has a great NICU-which is very important. The other staff in his office is great too. Dr. Jennifer Campbell is great too. Good Luck and Congratulations.

Dr. David Fong. He has an office in Plano but he is only there on Thursday. He is located in Frisco M, Tues, Wed, and Fri. I think he is awesome. I do not have any children, but as a OB/GYN he is wonderful. All moms that I know that visit him love him as well. He is very informative and does not rush you in and out of the office.
