I wanted to post a review because some of the recent one stars almost scared me off but my experience was so fantastic. Bernie was our tech and took her time explaining everything while being so kind. Dr Inglis was honest and to the point while being kind about our results. It overall was a really great experience! From front desk to everyone involved! I’m very grateful.

Do yourself a favor and find a different healthcare system during your pregnancy. You really deserve better. I’ve seen one friendly tech here. Everyone else is silent during exams. One was so bad and rude I called to make a formal complaint and ensure I’d never have to see her again. Both doctors I’ve seen here come into the room for ten seconds and if you try to ask questions it’s like fighting to get them to stay and answer them. If Carnegie MFM is coordinating with another practice during your pregnancy (Oula for example), good luck. Be prepared to be extremely proactive in your own care and advocate relentlessly for the most basic information and coordination between teams. I would highly recommend seeking care elsewhere.

I had a very negative experience here which I flagged for my OB as there were some very serious red flags in my opinion. I was sent here for my anatomy scan. I arrived early and still had to wait nearly an hour past my appointment time to be called in. Once I was called in the tech asked if this random woman could sit in- she did not clarify if she was a student, intern, another doctor etc. so I gave her a puzzled confused look and she then explained that the woman worked for one of the technology companies they were using. I said fine, but could have been handled better. The actual scan was fine enough, she was a bit rough at times and I ended up with some bruising and pain that lasted a few days after the scan- I have heard this can be normal so I won't hold it against them. After the scan was complete the tech went to get the doctor to go through the results. This is where a huge issue occurred in my opinion. The Doctor came in- did not introduce himself, nor confirm who I was by my name and birth date. He started sharing medical updates and information that was clearly not for me (wrong due date, wrong birth plan etc). I cut him off and said "I'm sorry I don't have an induction scheduled, I am a bit confused?" he then goes "oh you aren't _(wrong name)___" and I was like no... he then walked out for ten minutes, came back and said my scan was fine (again without confirming my name or birth date or anything) and gave nearly no specific information (no percentile, no positioning nothing). Thankfully I had a follow up with my OB to go through the scan results in more detail- but the lack of professionalism at the actual imaging center was jarring to say the least- what if he had accidentally given me the wrong BAD information and sent me into a panic? Doctors should always introduce themselves and confirm you are the correct patient. I also had issues with their billing department. It is recommended for IVF pregnancies to follow up with a fetal echo as an added precaution. I called the billing department to confirm the cost of the additional appointment with my insurance coverage and was told the out of pocket copay would be $1300+ even with my insurance. Because of this we decided to opt out of the additional scan. Later on when I contacted my insurance they told me the copay should have only been $45. This is incredibly suspicious to me- were they just trying to squeeze additional copay out of me for such an exorbitant amount of money? I was already not keen to return after my anatomy scan experience and my OB said that the risk was low anyway to skip the additional scan but the whole thing felt predatory to me. I would highly recommend going elsewhere if possible!
