While my doctor was good, as long as Northshore has that horribly unjust line in their consent to care, I will not recommend the hospital to anyone. In fact, I will warn people to be sure they read this consent before opting for treatment at North Shore. I am highly disappointed by this as I was born in Evanston Hospital and looking forward to having my baby there. I am now almost in my third trimester searching for another hospital.
Agreed all together are very good
very comfortable experience with Dr. Tien. she made our choices clear and guided us for practical and safe decisions. Highly recommend Dr.Tien.
Dr Shelly was the best doctor I've met with so far this pregnancy, she was very knowledgeable and really took time to hear my history and understand my needs.
spent a lot of time to reassure me!
excellent physician who relates very well to patients....couldn't be more satisfied with the care she gave
Dr. Tien is an excellent physician. She was able to establish trust immediately and made me feel completely comfortable under her care. I would highly recommend Dr. Tien for any maternal/fetal care. She was able to help me navigate through a very challenging time and I cannot thank her enough for her compassionate care.
Dr. Tien was wonderful and really put me at ease. She took her time and I never felt rushed.
Since I have been seen I have been having anxiety attacks one after the other every night. I do not appreciate the extreme worse case scenarios that were discussed in MUCH more detail than anything realisitic. Especially when my glucose numbers were not even to her knowledge. I have been pushed for insulin since day one, and never really discussed how the oral medication or any dietary suggestions could improve my numbers when my food log was sent in. I was told I would be given a week to try to use diet and exercise and not even 48 hours later got another push for insulin. I also did not care for the fact she was constantly checking her phone and even pulled out of the office. I do understand how this can happen sometimes, but she just seemed so distracted and not that involved in discussing my particular case. It was driven home very much so that I would transfer to her and travel to her multiple times a week. I love my OB and it wasn't up for discussion. Quite honestly, I felt like she wanted the money from my bill, and did not have my best interest in mind in the slightest. I will be getting a second opinion and very much think I will not be returning to this facility. It's been days and I cry every night at the fear approach that was used on me. Very unprofessional, and I believe stressing a pregnant woman out to this degree is sickening and potentially dangerous.
The Fellow was very thorough and meticulous. he was very focused on checking everything, which was great. Dr. Tien came in afterwards and also double checked everything. They both answered my questions and were very helpful.
