Hi, Kylie.

Now, we've known each other for a very long time, and I'm basically a regular in labor and delivery at this point.

I feel like if I had a punch card, I'd be getting the next one for free.

But...

I have been a patient of the practice since before I got pregnant the first time.

I always express, especially on the podcast...

how much love I have for not only the team of OBs that we have at the office, but also the labor and delivery nurses, the recovery and care that we receive as patients.

There have been times where I've called and I just wanted to talk to Diane, the nurse in the office.

I'll be like, is Diane in today?

It is such a personal experience, not only your pregnancy, but the process of trying to get pregnant, your health, overall health and wellbeing as a woman.

That it's so personal.

And so to have a team of doctors and an office staff as a whole that you feel comfortable calling, going to, asking for help, asking their opinion, calling even when it's something where you're like, I think I'm wasting their time, but I know that they will tell me that I'm not.

Right.

That is something I have found super, super valuable in my relationship with everyone there on the team.

Now, what makes for an awesome OB and particularly an awesome OB in pregnancy?

I will say whenever I have talked people into coming to the McConnell division of Axiom Women's Health, I've always told them that every single time a doctor, not only you, but Dr. Dempsey, Colleen, Brooke, Dr. High, anyone who comes in

they always sat down.

And so that to me was a sign of like, you have my time.

And so that in terms of like experiencing that as a pregnant woman who was like, okay, what have I thought about for the last month?

that I need to unload right here so that I can make sure I get all of my answers to my questions.
