new doc...

today i bit the bullet and made a consultation appointment with a new ob/gyn. i have to switch doctors because i'm now covered under david's osu insurance. while i'm super grateful to have health insurance, i'm really sad that i have to leave dr. k's practice. he was the first doctor i ever had where i felt truly comfortable and knew he was hearing me. an ob/gyn is a very personal doctor and i beleive that i need to be totally comfortable with whoever i choose. right now i'm just setting up consultations and will pick a doctor from the interviews. let's hope dr. landon from osu lives up to the stellar recommendations i received about him. my doula friend told me that he wrote what is probably the most important piece of research concerning vbac in the last 10 years. he also specializes in diabetes in pregnancy and since i had sugar issues with e.j. that was like music to my ears. i just wish our healthcare system wasn't so... not even sure of the word. i just wish people were put first rather than dollars. i'm thankful that i have been empowered by so many strong women out there to take ownership of my health care and not just pick a name out of the yellow pages and use them just because they're in my network. let the search begin...
