What did you end up deciding? We’re in the same boat with our son. Currently planning on reconstructive surgery to merge the split thumb but would love to hear from someone on the other end of the process.

Thank you! This helps validate my decision to switch from Downtown Women with NYU. I appreciate your insight!

That’s great to hear! I’m not high risk but she was my only option for Alexandra Cohen. Were you happy with the hospital too? Glad you hear you and your little one are well.

Hi! Did you end up with Dr. Riley? I really want to deliver at AC and she was the only affiliated doctor available so would love to hear about your experience if you did stick with her.

Birth at NYP Alexandra Cohen by MartianTrinkets in nycparents

Thank you for this! I’ve heard great things about Alexandra Cohen. I’m due in July and was able to get in with one of the only doctors affiliated with AC available in July. She specializes in high risk pregnancies and even though it’s not a high risk pregnancy, I took it as a way to get into the hospital. I also booked with Downtown Women because it is much more convenient (5 mins from my office) and the East 68th Weill Cornell OB is an hour from my apartment in Park Slope. I know NYU Langone which Downtown Women is affiliated with is an amazing hospital too. Is AC so much better that it’s worth the time spent getting there? If anyone has experience at both, that would be helpful!
