A normal MRI or ultrasound does NOT rule out endometriosis.

Every patient I operated on today had been told by their referring gynecologist that they didn’t have endo because their imaging came back normal. And yet here we are, finding and removing endo.

Imaging can be a useful tool, especially when it picks up something like an endometrioma. But a negative result is not a green light to send a woman home without answers.

Don’t let a “normal” scan be the end of your story. If you’re still suffering, find a doctor who is specifically trained in this disease and committed to finding it.

Please read this important notice. The closure of accredited free-standing birth centers in Indiana is so avoidable. And while I agree completely with this statement from Hoosier Midwives, there is something very important that's missing: hospitals. Insurance companies will readily pay hospitals literally 10 times what they will pay a free-standing birth center for the SAME birth. This is immoral. Why would they do that? Because the relationships between commercial health insurance plans and hospital systems is far too cozy and patients suffer as a result. If an insurance company agrees to compensate birth centers properly, it might "damage" their relationship with hospitals. If you get your insurance through your employer demand that your employer demand that the insurance company include free-standing birth centers as an option...and that they compensate birth centers fairly. This is critical in keeping birth centers open and providing families with the choices they deserve.

We’ve had patients deliver in their car and keep driving to us.
We’ve had families check out of the ER - baby already here, everyone healthy - and come straight to for postpartum care.

We’ve had a baby born in a hotel while the family was waiting to come in. I got to go to the hotel myself, rally everyone together, and bring them back.

Here’s the thing: if baby comes early and everything is okay, skip the EMS call if you feel safe, skip the hospital, and come to us. You’ll be on the phone with a midwife the whole way. She’ll help you figure out if it’s safe or if you need to be somewhere else.

The birth center isn’t just a place to deliver. It’s the best place to be postpartum. And we want you here.

I talked about what happens with our accidentally adventurous families and so many more big questions on All Things Women’s Health with my wife and midwife extraordinaire Marianne. Comment PODCAST and I’ll send you a link for the full episode!

Healthcare is broken in so many ways, and if you’re a physician, you already know exactly what I mean.

At , no one’s chasing you about productivity metrics. No one’s telling you where to refer your patients. No one’s asking you to justify a day off.

We’re an independent, private women’s health practice. We run our business. We make our schedules. We take care of our patients the way they deserve.

If that sounds like the practice you’ve been looking for — comment YES below and I’ll reach out.

The pitch sounds good at first - big salary, no business headaches, just show up and practice medicine. But nobody tells you what comes next: the production quotas, t administrator sign-offs, the slow realization that you’re working harder every year just to maintain a lifestyle that was never really yours to begin with.

At , we do things differently. We’re an independent, private OBGYN practice. We make our own decisions about our work, not what someone in a corner office decides for us. And we get to practice medicine the way we were trained to: putting patients first, every time.

If you’re a physician who’s starting to feel the walls closing in, or a new grad who wants to build something real, this is your sign.

Comment YES below and I’ll reach out personally.
