Manatee Memorial Hospital… Thoughts?? Opinions??

So my OB only delivers at Manatee Memorial, and I’m a little apprehensive because of my own birth and the trauma and lasting scars because of it (ended up with Erb’s Palsy because the Dr was an idiot basically). And the last time I took my daughter in after she fell off the bed and hit her head, they at first gave me the wrong info for my daughter. And it took hours for them just tell me “no yeah she’s fine, just monitor her all day and if anything looks suspicious, come back 🤷🏼‍♀️”. I’ve also heard stories from other people having not so great experiences as well… Have any mamas recently given birth at MM? Was it a good experience? How many stars out of five would you rate your experience? Lol

I can’t speak to Manatee Memorial, but if you’re looking for an alternative, I delivered at Sarasota Memorial and it was a great experience. I had some complications and they handled it so well. My midwife performed interventions so I was able to avoid the Operating Room, and both my daughter and I left the hospital healthy after the normal 24 hours.

I had no issues there. Everybody was really nice.

@Darien Yeah, I delivered my first at Sarasota and it was a really pleasant experience, but I have to go to MM this time because my first OB was/is retiring, so her office wasn’t accepting Medicaid anymore. And the OB I have now only delivers at MM. So I don’t really have a choice 🥲
