I am newly pregnant with my first and currently have healthcare through Kaiser. Could anyone recommend a reliable OB and RN at the Kaiser San Francisco Campus (we live in San Francisco). I would particularly like recommendations for RN's as Kaiser typically has you see them unless your pregnancy is high risk. I like to work with doctors who are straight forward, but have caring bedside manners. Elizabeth

Re: ObGyn with knowledge of PCOS
If you have Kaiser, a wonderful OB/GYN for someone with PCOS is Dr. Sara Mandel at SF Kaiser. I've had nothing but great experiences with her. She's on the younger side (but plenty of experience), current on the research, open to alternative approaches, and quite collaborative in her patient relations. She is just about to go on maternity leave for a few months but will be back soon. Good luck

Re: Breastfeeding Friendly Kaiser ObGyn
If you are willing to go to San Francisco, I LOVE my Kaiser OB/GYN, Sarah Mandel. She supported me in breastfeeding, including breastfeeding beyond the first year. She has also supported me through other non-gyn. medical issues. She's just a really friendly, great person. Ellen

I recommend Joan Ogasako in San Francisco as an OB/GYN. She is based at Kaiser in San Francisco at 2238 Geary, I believe she's an RN not an MD. She was my OB/GYN for some time. She took great care of me before I got pregnant and afterwards. She is also someone you can talk to and ask all sorts of questions of and she doesn't get tired of answering and helping. The number for her is (415) 202-2200. Stephanie 2001

I'm very happy with the care I received from my OB at Kaiser SF- her name is Audrey Wright and she's wonderful, attentive, and always very responsive. I have a 4 month old girl that she provided the prenatal care. Melissa
