OB/GYN Reccomendations

My old GYN is in Brooklyn and I was planning to find one in LI but now I have to do it ASAP.

1) I need a good ob/gyn doctor? Can anyone give me any recommendations? I don't want to randomnly pick one out of my HMO book. Please help!

Thanks.

HELLO MOMMY TO BE!!!

I have a GREAT OB/GYN, of course I don't need the OB part yet, haha! But anyway, not sure if you prefer a woman, but mine's a guy. He's Dr. Levine in Mineola, right around the corner from Jericho Terrace. He's awesome! And he is affiliated with Winthrop one of the BEST hospitals to have your baby in! If you want his info e-mail me!

How you feeling, I see no morning sickness! Hope it doesn't come to bite you in the A$$! haha! Okay, bye now!

Where do you live? I have a great ob/gyn and he is located right across the street from the Watermill (the wedding hall) I guess its considered Smithtown? His name is Dr. Richard Halpert. I never used a man dr before until him. He is so nice, he is gentle and he remembers me whenever I am there (since I am a travel agent he always asks me where I have been lately). Let me know if you want his #. (His partner in his practice is Dr. Keith Sommers)

Re: OB/GYN Reccomendations

I go to Dr. Paul Byrne (male, obviously). I have been going to him for 8 years now and really like him as a doctor. He is located in Garden City Plaza, right inside Roosevelt Field. He is affiliated with Winthrop (where I will have my baby), South Nassau in Oceanside and North Shore Manhasset.

Please FM me if you want more info.

I am using Dr. Jennifer Johnson in Mineola (she also has an office in Old Brookville), and the group is associated with Winthrop Hospital. There are 2 female doctors and 1 male doctor in the practice (that deliver babies). When I moved to Mineola, I went to the maternity ward at Winthop hospital and asked the head nurse to help me find a good OB/GYN, and she highly recommended hers--Dr. Johnson. I've been with her for 2 years now and no complaints. If you need any further info, FM me! Good luck to you!

Re: OB/GYN Reccomendations

I see an awesome (male) doctor in Garden City. He's not part of a practice ~ it's just him. I find him to be extremely up to date on everything involved with gyn. care and pregnancy, not to mention funny, down to Earth and very easy to talk to. He's affiliated with Winthrop hospital, where I had Nicolas, and had a very good experience.

FM me if you'd like his name and #.

Re: OB/GYN Reccomendations

Hello -
I did a search regarding dr. byrne and came across your post from a couple years ago. My friend recommended him (she went to him a couple times) but she wasn't ready to have a baby yet and felt he specialized in the ob part of gynecology. DO u like him, still? Can u please email me his info? You mentioned he delived at winthrop and NS Manhasset right? Thanks so much for your help in advance.
