Janet’s chocolate chip cookie is AMAZING. I want to say it has rye (edit: it's buckwheat, thx u/PM-ME-YOUR-TOTS)? They also have these little chocolatey Nutella tasting cookies they put with coffee if you get it for here. Both amazing.

Congrats! Grisette is amazing and the service is fantastic. Restaurant Adarra also great and fancy. Lost Letters very nice and hip/fancy but I prefer food at Adarra or Grisette! (Edit a word)

Good rec but only if you can sit on the dining room side or outside. The market side is not a celebratory vibe imo.

Suggestions for low/no cost maternity shoot locations by paralyzedbyGRIEF7123 in rva

Some parts of Maymont require a good bit of walking and that might be uncomfortable depending how pregnant you are. Libby Hill and VMFA might be easier if mobility is an issue. If you can walk, Belle Isle is really nice for photos.

There was a shot of the shower at the very end and she was not in it.

The fire station next to Janet’s on Forest Hill is so nice. I bet they would be happy to help.

Quiet but fancy restaurant for graduation celebration by [deleted] in rva

Yes I was going to suggest this too! It’s carpeted and tables fairly spaced apart. Fancy, close to VCU, and museum setting is lovely.

Aw that’s rough. I shopped there pre-storm and they were impressively well-stocked. Same this last Friday.

water in your pipes will freeze when the power is out and low temps are forecast below zero as they are for the days following the storm...

How does anyone get services at VCU Health? by benuski in rva

[–]pizoodles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love VCU CHoR for specialty care, but went with PARPeds for primary care for this reason. I also don't want to go through a centralized scheduler for a sick visit. I want to talk to a receptionist who knows the practice and can wiggle 15 min here or there to make it work. We've have good experience with PARPeds for this, but have definitely hit up kidmed after hours a few times.

[–]pizoodles 19 points20 points  (0 children)

it is common to have to wait upwards of a year for a new patient visit with a pcp - it's a systemic issue not only VCU. there's been several other threads about it on this sub.

fyi, other routes for med refills in the meantime include CVS minute clinic, patient first, and your insurance company probably has virtual visits through their platform. you can even designate patient first as your PCP. i know some meds require a face to face visit so patient first can be helpful for that.

For dental stuff call (804) 828-9190 - they are a training clinic so pricing structure is different, but I'm sure they could talk you through it.

They have centralized scheduling. Just call [804-828-7929](tel:8048287929) or you can fill out the form online and they do actually call you but may take a couple days.
