Customer Reviews
Fantastic.
I love this podcast (and this practice :)) so much information— as a doula I recommend this podcast to everyone!
Helpful in a scary time.
When faced with the possibility of a high risk pregnancy, it is so refreshing to find accurate educational material in an easy format! Thanks!
Fascinating and empowering!
This podcast is an incredible resource during my second pregnancy - it has taught me so much about obstetric topics that you don’t have time to discuss or know what to ask about with your OB. The doctors discuss the issues in more depth and nuance than you can ever find online, and they share fascinating insights about their decision-making and how they counsel patients. Thank you for doing this, Dr. Fox!
