Question from the Inbox ~ Hi there! I will be moving to Vance AFB from Okinawa, Japan, with my E6 hubby in early August. Not concerned with housing, thanks to this...

Dr. Keuchel is who I went to, and he's amazing, but IDK if you'll be able to get into him because he's so busy that he rarely takes on new patients. I would highly suggest a doctor who delivers at Bass. We had a great experience there. Tucker, Gillespie, Keuchel, and a couple others deliver at Bass. I will tag a few more people who might be able to tell you more about their experience. Tasha Ryan Ness, Jolene Carmody, Whitney Jones Little, Laura Kelly, Maggie 'Souba' Knaeble, Sande Downey Garoutte.

Hi:) I had great success with my doctor, Dr. Keelie Tukcer! She is very thorough, kind and great bed side manners! My son was thought to be high risk (completely healthy when we delivered) so I was reffered to a specialist in the city. In turn, I had 2 doctors throughout my pregnancy and felt very taken care of. I would highly recommend her to anyone:)

Jessica Moore and Dora Baker
Dora B. replied:
Dr Keuchel is who I would recommend also! As for a neurologist, either Dr Cardich or Dr Knapick have excellent reputations.
Tai H. replied:
You ladies all rock!! Thank you!! I will call Dr. Keuchel and Dr. Knapick this week to start.:) Jessica's right, Karisa! Especially in September, it can get a little scarce. But you will LOVE living off base...it is a whole new culture experience.:) Feel free to message me with any questions. We are devastated to leave; Okinawa is amazing!! So, I love talking about it.
A pregnant mommy-to-be who just moved to town, is looking for an OBGYN...suggestions please!

Dr Keuchal is awesome
Holly R. replied:
Dr Badzinski is awesome but he has to use St Marys. I used Dr Gillespie because I wanted Bass Hospital and she was awesome too!
Aracely G. replied:
That's a tough one. Their offices were just too busy for my liking. Barely got time with my daughter's pediatrician. We just use our family Dr. Good luck!.
Chris G. replied:
Dr. Tucker is AMAZING and delivers at Bass
Aracely G. replied:
Dr. Lawrence is our family Dr.
Stephanie E. replied:
Dr. Roark is amazing! She's been so understanding and willing to listen and answer all my questions, took everything I said into consideration. I just had my sweet girl last night and it was a wonderful experience. She's a St. Mary's doc.

Courtney Carter seems likeBadzinski is well likes

Dr Keuchel is recommending Tucker. As far as Pediatricians, I go to Sizelove. He is s family doctor but is wonderful on my 2 Mth old!
Kerrie U. replied:
Where is Dr Keuchel going!?:(
Chelsea B. replied:
Dr Tucker!!!!!!
Megan M. replied:
Dr Badzinski is amazing. I had a hard time getting pregnant and then had a miscarriage and he was so thoughtful and amazing with me during this time. He helped us through our hard times and just took care if me through the birth of our daughter. Also, as you talk to him you can see him thinking (very comforting). I believe that your dr is only as good as their assessment skills and he is very detailed with his.
Katie L. replied:
I use Dr. Badzinski. He has been practicing long and knows what he is talking about.
Holly R. replied:
I was just told Dr Badzinski maybe leaving too, won't know for sure until the end of the month.:-(
Kristi H. replied:
Dr. Weaver...his nickname is magic fingers:) mention my name and he will love her automatically!!
Kristi H. replied:
Katie Moore Logsdon I'm thinking about it. The first thing that comes to mind is " What am I going to do without Dr. Weaver!!! I'm seriously thinking about driving all the way up here so he can deliver my 3 rd...truly kinda love him!!
Kristi H. replied:
Katie Moore Logsdon promise I will let you know when and if it happens....to my girl who loves _ _ _:)
Kristi H. replied:
Joni, I was totally like that... wanted a woman bc that's what I knew. Couldn't even fathom another man looking you know where. Just made me uncomfortable. Dr. Weaver was suggested to me by my husband he worked with Dr. Weaver and most of the other Docs that are mentioned in this post. Not saying anything about the other docs but I choose Dr WEAver for a reason and I have never regretted it!!!
