I LOVE my OBGYN! He is a wonderful and caring doctor... I've never had a doctor I trusted more. He is amazing -- Dr. Mark Hyde, at Virginia Physicians for Women. It's a large practice, so I assume they would be able to work out a payment plan. I can't say enough about him.

Amanda W. replied:
This may be a stupid question... But... Do they do normal well checkups & ob visits? I have only been in VA for a year & have never had any kind of medical treatment here. My daughter goes to her pediatrician regularly, but other than that I have no experience with VA health care...
Molly H. replied:
I have a midwife at Complete Care for Women. But there is an OBGYN as well as a family practice doctor there as well. They are located in the medical offices next to Chippenham Hospital. I think they have payment plans--I know they do for the birth center that I'm using.

If you want someone who will take time with you, then James Cook on Brook Road and Parham; or Beth Du at Saint Mary's (However, i don't think she is taking new patients).
