Northline Womens Health Center Brownstown

Im 33 weeks pregnant with my second baby and have to have regular ultrasounds and non stress tests because I had preeclampsia with my last pregnancy. The staff is friendly and pleasant to be around. Tammy, the ultrasound tech, is wonderful. She remembers who I am when she sees me, makes me feel comfortable, and is always professional.

I was a patient of this practice for five years… five years too long. The ONLY decent thing about this practice (hence the second star) is the NP, Marlene, who actually seems to know what’s talking about, talks you as if she’s a human being, and genuinely seems to enjoy her job.
This practice is severely mismanaged. You’re guaranteed to wait at least 30 minutes past your appointment time, every single time (I waited an hour and a half once…90 minutes!). It seems as if they are constantly overbooking themselves. The office staff has poor communication with one another and with the doctors. It’s just an absolute mess.
I saw Dr. Schiebout, who I heard is leaving this practice. She was very robotic, unemotional, and refused to prescribe me any other brand of progesterone besides the one that cost $ 600 for a three month supply (which I needed to successfully carry a pregnancy). When I had my second miscarriage, she was very matter-​of-​fact, to the point, and showed no empathy whatsoever. When she refused to prescribe another brand of progesterone/​when the office staff told me there was no other brand, I switched practices. My new OB prescribed me another brand of progesterone (which of course, there was… I mean, come on… she must have gotten some kind of compensation or benefit for only prescribing that brand), which I paid $ 20 a month for, and successfully and finally carried successfully and to term.
