Mamaduke, you are an inspiration. Keep fighting, you have plenty of support here!

I hope you find the right Dr who will work with you to achieve your desired outcome.

The insurance thing is a load of nonsense. Who really suffers when something goes wrong, not the OB! The other option, would be as Becmc suggested, to sign an indemnity or waiver.

I responded to your post in the negative experiences - mamaduke, you are not alone!
