Seeking Obgyn

I am pregnant, very early on, and so excited to find a new Obgyn. The doctor I have previously seen is retired. I would like to deliver in Kettering. Any suggestions on a great Obgyn? Thank you!!!

What can I do next?

Hi K.,
I used Dr Imbody at Dayton OBGYN in Miami Valley Hospital and he is wonderful. He always made me feel comfortable and is as nice as can be. They also have an office in Centerville if that's closer to where you are. Good luck!

K.,
I completely agree w/Jo. Dr. Horlacher & Wood, Dr Guy & the midwives, and then Dr. Imbody....but nobody else in his group....2 doulas w/the same opinions, go figure! I'd also add that the one Paschiano (I probably spelled it wrong) has a new office in Beavercreek as well. If you have the option, please consider birthing @ Family Beginnings. @ least go tour there and compare. Your 2 most important decisions will be who you choose to attend you, and where you choose to give birth.

Hello, Dr William Dorsey and Dr Trisha Pachiano are great doctors. They are across from the Dayton Mall and deliver at Southview hopsital. I have seen a doctor named Dr. Kedrin Vansteenwyk and LOVED her. She had taken a teaching postion so I am not sure where she is now. If she is still practicing she is wonderful! I have also heard great things about Dr Lori Hemmelgarn. Dr Hemmelgarns husband is also a fertlility specialist at Kettering Hospital(Dr Burwinkle). Hope this helps! Best wishes!!!

Hi, I go to Dr. Buckreus in Bellbrook, his associate Dr. Hemmelgarn is too very good. They deliver mostly at Kettering but do go to other hospitals. Dr. Buckreus has delivered all three of my children and his office staff is very nice too.

I would suggest Dayton OB-GYN Inc. My main dr. is Dr. Thesing but I have met all but 1 of the doctors there. I like all of them and they have delivered 3 out of 4 of my children. They are at MVH and they go to Kettering also. they have an office in Centerville - across the street from Incarnation Church.

Their number is 937/435-1445.

Best of luck with your new one!

Dr Dale Drollenger (spelling of name may be off) He is in Centerville and is the only doctor I would recommend. He is the only doctor in the practice so he is the one who delivers and sees you. The staff is wonderful and I have recommended him to several people who in turn have recommended him. ###-###-####...yes I have it memmorized after four children!

Dr. Horlacher and Dr Wood are the awesome and Dr. Guy I do not know if they deliever also at Kettering they are mostly Miami Valley. Kettering has the highest c-section rate. Dr. Imbody is really good to and I know he delivers also at kettering I just am not crazy about every one else in his group. If you have any more questions please feel free to email me.

Congrats

I would highly recommend Oak Creek OBGYN. They have offices in Springboro, Beavercreek and Kettering and are associated with the Kettering Medical Network. There are a total of 6 doctors...3 male and 3 female. I prefer Dr. Patel or Dr. Leary out of the 6 (both female). They were absolutely wonderful during my entire pregnancy.
