Need a Doctor in Central Austin for Myself
We recently moved to Austin and I don't have a regular GP doctor to see myself. I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant and afraid that my cough is so bad I'm going to cough up my unborn child! I'd love any recommendations for friendly doc/staff in the central area, but I'm willing to drive anywhere at this point!
I spoke with the nurse at my OB's office (love my OB - Dr. Seeker) earlier this week and have been taking plain Robitussin, but it hasn't helped in the least. :-(
Thanks.
So What Happened?™
Thanks everyone for the speedy responses! My OB called in some heavier duty cough meds for me, and I'm already feeling 100x better. I've begun calling some local doctors from your suggestions to get a new patient meeting/appointment. I may not need them immediately anymore, but it'll be good to have a GP/Internal Med doc for my husband and I.
Many thanks!
Jen

I really like Jefferson Street Family Practice, Dr. Theresa Pugh, on Medical Parkway and 40th St, 1101 W. 40th St, ###-###-#### is their phone #. They are a small office, pleasant, kind of old fashioned and it's never been crowded. I've been happy with them.

I see Theresa Pugh as my GP. I really like her. She's located at 1101 W. 40th St., Austin, TX 78756 and her number is###-###-####.
Your OB should be able to treat you though.
Good luck!

Dr. Gwen Miller in Pflugerville is great! She is off of Grand Avenue Parkway. I live in Round Rock, so I am not too far away. I also see Dr. Seeker...he and his staff are awesome! I would actually call Dr. Seeker back and tell them your cough is not better. I think another Dr. would tell you to call your OB.
Hope you feel better soon!

Hi J.-
Congratulations on your pregnancy! I go to Central Family Practice on 34th St, near Lamar. I also take my 8 month old son there, so it would be a place your whole family can go. They don't process insurance, so that is a disadvantage if you have it, but their prices are reasonable.
Good luck!
