Back-Up Physicians
Routine Back-Up
I require my patients to see their back-up doctor at least TWICE during their pregnancy. This becomes especially helpful
should the need to transport arise during labor or birth. The initial contact with your physician should occur by the 28th
week of your pregnancy, with the second visit taking place between 36-38 weeks.

I do not have any formal arrangements with obstetricians. You are free to choose your own doctor. However, the
following are physicians who have provided past patients with quality care and I highly recommend them.

Early in the pregnancy, each couple will be asked to fill
out a
Back Up Plan sheet. This out lines time and route to
nearest hospital, doctor's number/pager, and emergency
contact information.
