Welcome to pregnancy
Congratulations on your pregnancy! We welcome you to Gentle Hands OBGYN. We thank you for choosing us as your care provider. Our providers and staff are all dedicated to your health and we look forward to getting to know you over the course of the coming months.
Having a baby is one of the most memorable and important experiences for a woman. We will do all we can to ensure your pregnancy experience is safe, healthy and happy.
This booklet is provided to you to help answer common questions you may experience along the way. We encourage you to keep it nearby as a resource throughout your pregnancy. You can also visit our websites at www.gentlehandsobgyn.com for valuable information.
Thank you for placing your trust in our care.
Like many OB/GYN practices, we are a group practice. Our providers have days they work in the office, days they are on-call for deliveries at the hospital and days they are off. Your primary provider may not be on-call on the day you are in labor and delivery. However, there is always a provider on-call at the hospital to care for you. This system allows us to prioritize the patient sitting in front of us, whether it is at the hospital or the office.
DO NOT USE
THE PATIENT PORTAL TO SEND MESSAGES EVEN IF IT
SEEMS MINOR. PLEASE CALL THE OFFICE.
