Johansson actually performed the procedure with Karen there too, and I can also say that Dr. The labor and delivery with my first was complicated, and I ended up having an emergency c-section after 30 hours of labor. She helped me through a miscarriage and D &C and then through the birth of my first child. She was knowledgeable, funny, caring, and attentive. Karen McBride was my nurse midwife for my first child and also for subsequent GYN visits and I just loved everything about her. I also think because he knew I would not be coming back after the second c section he was less invested in making it a good experience.Įvery single woman in the Ogden area should switch doctors immediately and make their way to this wonderful place! I recently moved away from the area and I am SO sorry that I will not be able to come here for pre– and post-natal visits for my second child. I experienced some anxiety about each c section which he didn’t seem to want to discuss. He’s good at his job, and fast and efficient, but his «bedside manner» is somewhat lacking. I chose to see him again for the second c section, but wish I had not. This is not he reason for the lower rating. I understand this is a risk, and can happen sometimes. He cut the baby on the shoulder, a very small slice. He did have to perform a c section, in a bit of a rush because the baby wasn’t doing well. He’s very efficient, I rarely waited for my appointments! For the first delivery, he was accommodating to consider an attempting a vbac even though we both knew the chances for success were low. I appreciated that the visits were short, I was in and out in 20 minutes usually. I got some prescriptions by phone, that was very convenient. Decent front staff, FANTASTIC play area for kids.
