Seeking OB/GYN Comfortable with Fertility Awareness in LB Area
I need some help mamas.
I want to find an OB/GYN that will work with me on understanding my cycle and fertility. Preferably, the doctor would be in the Long Beach/Lakewood area. However I am willing to travel to surrounding areas such as: Cerritos, Artesia, Bellflower, Cypress, Northern Orange County and Southern LA.
I have been charting my cycles for 6 months, taking note of my temps and fertility signs. I need a doc that can appreciate and understands this. My current doc does not care to look at my charts and is not supportive. My doc just wants to prescribe me meds.
I've been using the Fertility Awareness Method to conceive without using meds. I would like a doctor's support in doing so. I'm also seeking a Naturopathic doctor for guidance on regulating my cycles using natural methods.
I just read the answer from Rita E. I actually have been going to the Complete Woman's Care Lakewood office since 2008. But my doctor has been changed twice already! First was Dr. Kwok, who left, then Dr. Mulvhil, who left a few months ago, and now my doctor is Dr. Gevorgyan, with whom I am not comfortable. Will Dr. Mackovic or Dr. Woodson be more interested with my charts? Are very knowledgeable with the Fertility Awareness Method?

My OB is Dr Carlos Rosales his number is ###-###-#### He is in LB at the Harriman Jones on Redondo & Willow. He is an awsome doctor. He will listen to your questions and answer and give you advise. I'm not sure if he specialzes in fertility, but I'm sure you could call and ask about that.

My doctor is wonderful! My husband and I suffered from infertility for 3 years before getting pregnant (including seeing an acupuncturist). As soon as my doctor knew our situation, she didn't waste time with unnecessary appts. We did use a fertitility clinic eventually and I took fertility meds so I could ovulate (we did IUI), but I know that if you share what you WANT to do she will be supportive and give you some options. Her name is Cynthia Chao. She is in Long Beach near the circle, and her number is ###-###-####. If you've had a bunch of tests already, I would come prepared with your medical file, otherwise she'll want to start with the tests so she knows what is going on with your and your partner's bodies.

I have a GREAT OB/GYN..... She has several different offices and all are local to you. Her entire staff is wonderful and all female!! It's called Complete Woman Care. The doctor's name that helped me is Dr. Mackovic but another doctor there is Dr. Woodson who is also wonderful.
You can check out the website and choose an office:

Hi! My Doctor is in Fountain Valley. His name is Dr. Gerardo Bustillo and he specializes in fertility. I am not sure what his exact methods are or is he uses meds or not, but he is GREAT, and very handsome too!
Good Luck! Oh, he has a woman partner as well if you would prefer a woman.
