I was really disappointed when I moved away towards the end of my pregnancy and had to end care with DHMC. I loved all the staff in the OBGYN department and always had great experiences. Me and my husband were very well cared for with kindness and empathy and listened to closely as we navigated two pregnancy losses (including a d&c) right before our double rainbow baby came along. They are conservative while being willing to indulge an anxious expecting mother, especially when I wanted extra scans between losses and to reass... read more

I am very grateful to live near a hospital as well-equipped as DH, though just as grateful to have the privilege of working with a private midwife who can offer the best care through presence, patience, and personalization. I did not have a bad experience with DH in the first 18 weeks of my pregnancy, but my experience did confirm where I find the modern medical model to be lacking. I was disappointed by several points of miscommunication between the practitioners and myself, and amongst themselves. Navigating my first pregn... read more

I delivered my first child at DHMC and had a good experience. However, I was horrified by their care when I had to undergo a D&C for a missed miscarriage. They used no sedation whatsoever, not even twilight sedation. I was given an Ibuprofen and a Tylenol beforehand and told I might feel some cramping. I have a very high pain threshold so I expected no issues. What ensued was the most excruciating experience of my life. I was uncontrollably screaming and sobbing throughout the procedure and nearly passed out. To add insult t... read more

My care during my stay was good from the nurses and residents but terrible from the attending physicians. I had severe complications, and the direction my care went depended on who was on shift. I was not educated on what the future of my stay looked like, which made it impossible to coordinate care for my older child at home. After being discharged, I had a few follow up appointments but my condition did not improve. They stopped contacting me and then refused to fill my prescriptions despite still suffering from the condit... read more
