Looking for OB/GYN in Lake County IL

[mocos]

I am 7 wks with my first and I am having a hard time making a decision on an OB/GYN. I have an appointment with Dr Erica Smith out of Highland Park Hospital. I have heard great things about the hospital and being very supportive of natural birth, but I don't know anything about the Dr's. If anybody knows anything about her, could you pass it along? Thanks!!

The only doctor that I tend to hear good things about is Dr. Tyler. He works out of Highland Park and trained as an osteopath (in addition to his OB specialty). Even my midwife recommends him because he's just about the only local doctor who will do a vaginal breech. Lake County is pretty desolate in terms of low-intervention maternity care but Highland Park is definitely your best bet. I had my daughter there and they were very supportive; although it helped that I had an amazing nurse.

Thank You so much! I will look into that and see if he is on my insurance.
