I had to basically demand to meet him after the first few months. I was told I would meet other doctors who may deliver if Strebel is not available and i have met no other doctor. My only dealings have been with the Nurse. She is polite and friendly and I feel comfortable talking to her about anything but it disturbs me I really have no idea who is delivering my baby. I've maybe spent 5 minutes with the guy....35 weeks and have yet to discuss a birthing plan of any sort. I am full of all sorts of anxiety. I seem to always have trouble getting through to anyone on the phone. They open at 830...but usually dont start answering the phone till 845. They often call me after hours and when I call back I cant get through. I have been waiting on test results that I was told would take a couple days that never came...then i was told 3-5 days and then still 8 days later (not including the weekend) still no results. Everyday that goes by that I dont get these results my stress levels have been through the roof and they have no urgency to get them to me. Makes me really upset that no one can keep me updated on something I've been calling basically everyday to find out. I understand this is a busy office but I often feel forgotten about unless im there in their face demanding attention. Its no wonder my blood pressure has been so high. The hospital said I needed to be seen next week because of my blood pressure...but because they are only open 2 days because of XMAS and are \"overbooked\" i have to wait until the following week. Makes me feel even less of a priority :( My head hurts just writing this. I hate to give such a low rating...especially since i have nothing to compare them to, but I just cant get over the lack of involvement in my pregnancy from this doctor. He could pop in just to see how I was doing for 30 seconds even...but never has."^^ . .
