    I love the care and expertise here and the time my dr. Spends listening to me. Helps so much and has excellent way of helping and never being judgmental but encouraging. This is so important and goes a long way to relieve worries and stress in these times. Thank you very much. My OBGYN is Lori Goranson and her assistant was very good as well.

    Is there anything else you would like to share about your experience with your provider?

    Nutrition and physical exercise should be just as important in the conversation of making sure the mother is healthy. Labs and medicine are quick to be offered, but doesn?t seem like a holistic approach is commonly taken.
