Driscoll William A III MD

I am 27 and do not have any children. I initially began going to Women's Health Care because they were close to where I lived at the time and accepted my insurance. I have been a patient there for 3-4 years and until recently, had no strong feelings good or bad about Women's Health Care. Like most women, I went for my annual simply because I needed a refill for my birth control. Since annuals are pleasant I typically put off scheduling until last minute and as a result, have seen a different provider every time. Most recently however, I saw a midwife and had an amazing experience. She spent about 45 minutes with me which I found to be pleasantly surprising. My advice would be to see a nurse practitioner or midwife. Nurse practitioners and midwives seem to have the flexibility in there schedule to treat you as more of an individual rather than a number. \t\n\t\nI will be moving out of the area and am so sad to have to leave my midwife behind. My greatest complaint is the phone system...its obnoxious. I happened to be the first appointment of the day and running late due to construction and had no way of contacting someone directly in the office.

I have called twice to leave a message for my doctor -- so far, she either doesn't get the message, or doesn't care -- good thing my issue isn't life threatening! If they tell you to get a certain treatment, shouldn't they actually order it? Just a thought--I don't expect a return call and can wait until my next ""yearly"" and then I'll let her have it!
