    If you read it, he also thinks ultrasounds are a good indicator of how you will labour ('These are not 100% accurate, but will give a good indication of the chances of success in labour.') as well as many other things which continue with the path of being not evidence (i.e. study, proof) based practise. Again, this is not what his body recommends and stands for. So I would like to hear what they think, and I know several people who have written to them for answers to his 'opinions' which he will enforce on all women who see him. The things he states, you wont know if they are evidence based or not unless you are otherwise informed. I also heard of an Ob who did caesareans on all mothers over 30 as he believed it was less risky. So would going to him be the same as the above mentioned?
