change of doctors?

How many of you have changed doctors during your pregnancy? My mom just heard some not very good stories about my doctor. And I have yet to even see a doctor in that office (even though there are at least 6). I've had 3 appts so far and only seen the pa's. They also seem kind of disorganized. If you do change offices do they make you redo all the tests and such or just get the records from the other office? Thanks!

But I do feel like this office outs disorganized. Almost too busy to take care of the patients correctly. Also the last ultrasound I had the tech made me stick the probe up myself. It was so awkward!

Are you happier with your new choices? I liked the area my doctor was in and the hospital I'd be having my baby in. My mom wants me to go to a doctor's office a little farther away. I think I'm just nervous because I'm not a fan of any of those doctors.

I changed Drs at 15 weeks after getting fed up with my Dr and her office. When you find anew dDr, just fill out a transfer of medical records form. No need to redo anything. :)

I just changed my dr. To midwives, and I am 24 weeks. You just need to transfer your medical record no need to redo all the tests.
