Hi, I just moved to Boca and need a obgyn that is great. I had an amazing obgyn in NJ and have gone to 2 so far and have been disappointed. I am newly pregnant and need to find someone soon. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Hi Gloria,

I called but Dr. Zann is no longer delivery babies...Thanks anyway. I hope to find someone... I would like to find a doctor that uses the plastic vs. metal when doing the check up and someone I can have a relationship with as my growing baby continues is getting ready to come to the world... It's hard when you move to a new place, I miss NY/NJ but life here is nice, I just wish I had my OBGYN here now, its been hard to find someone.

Thanks,
D.

I am with Karen on this one - Women's Healthcare Partners is fantastic! I see Dr. Samuel Kaufman and he is wonderful, but unfortunately he does not do the OB part any more but everyone else in that office does. Dr. Melissa Friedman delivered both my babies and she was great, Dr Arcelin is good as well. I only met Dr. Feingold once so don't know much about her. They also have a couple of midwives in the practice too so if you are ever interested in going that route, that option is available without leaving the practice.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Dr. Kenneth Konsker.. I've been going to him since I was 19 (I'm 30 now)... He delivered my baby at Boca Raton Community Hospital and I feel 100% comfortable around him... He has 2 offices. One across the street from FAU College, and the other off Clintmore (both in Boca) beautiful offices.. The staff is great also. His # is ###-###-####..
Good luck!

Hi D. - I moved from NYC to Fla and had the same problem. Women's Healthcare Partners was highly recommended by my OBGYN in NYC. They have offices in Boca and Boynton. I recently had a baby and had a great experience with their practice. I go to Dr. Stewart Newman but I also loved Dr. Gostal Arcelin, Dr. Patricia Chen and Dr. Lauren Feingold. The Boca office # is ###-###-####. P.S. - Although I have also heard good things about Dr. Konsker (sp?) I took a prenatal class with a bunch of women and 4 out of 4 had schedule c-sections with him far in advance of their due dates and rationale behind c-sections were not specific. I was cautious and did not use him. Just a thought. Good luck!

I am pregnant as well... I am 17 weeks. I go to Kenneth Konsker. I will tell you this... if you are looking for someone to spend tons of time with you, he is NOT your guy. Don't get me wrong. I think he's great. He's funny, kind and I totally trust him to deliver my baby. I can also tell you that this is my first baby and I have not had a second to even ask him a question, and he hasn't provided one ounce of information regarding this pregnancy. Like I said, he's a GREAT doctor and I totally trust him but if I didn't do my own research/reading I wouldn't know what the heck was going on... I'm not sure of who else to recommend. I can tell you to NOT go to Dr. Birnbach. He is horrible. PS - Dr. Konsker's nurse, Paz, is awesome though :)

Go to Samuel Kaufman, M.D., OB GYN - he is THE BEST. I've been his patient for 23 years. He delivered both of my children via C-Section, he truly CARES about his patients. Whenever I had a concern he was always right there and he is an expert with both diagnosis and treatment of OBGYN issues.
I have referred countless patients to him, including my own relatives. He delivers the best care (no pub intended) and I trust him with MY LIFE.

When my daughter is ready to have a baby, Dr. Samuel Kaufman is the Doctor I trust will deliver my grandchild - THAT is how special of a Doctor he truly is. He has earned this review. He deserves some kind of Award of Excellence!
Sincerely,
B. Rose

I don't post to mamsource often, but when I see anyone who needs an OB I have to jump in and recommend my midwife Rachael Devaney. Midwives do basically everything an OB does except for surgery. She is absolutely amazing and takes time to answer any and all questions I have. SHe is kind and her care is personal. I had an incredible birth with her also.
