Calvert Ob/gyn Associates

Has anyone ever used them? A friend of mine is not happy with her current OB/GYN and wanted to try them out. TIA for any input.

I love them, sometimes there is a bit of a wait but I always bring a book or play games on my phone. Been going there for about 8 years!

Have been in the office before for a 4 pm appointment and the secretary said the doc is at the hospital. Go home eat dinner and come back around 8. Awesome!

I just had a baby May and I used Calvert/OB and Dr. Alonzo and waiting 15-29 minutes is one thing, but I honestly waited on AVERAGE 45 minutes for my appts....Dr. couldn't remember my name even after 9 months of appts and she gave me different options for my delivery during the last 4 or 5 appts, being a first time mother... not very comforting. They were just too busy in my opinion. I waited over an hour on many appts and that would be fine if they hadn't made me feel as if I was just a number. JUST MY OPINION, but I won't be back if I choose to have another baby.

I used to go to Dr. Johnson and really liked her a lot. But the wait times there have always been ridiculous, unacceptable imo. When I got pregnant I made the decision to deliver at AAMC because CMH doesn't have an nicu and I had a high risk pregnancy. So I switched over to Annapolis Obgyn and found the wait time up there so much better. I think it's rude to not respect patient's time when we're expected to be on time. I can drive all the way to Annapolis, have my appt, and be on my way home by the time I'd be seen in Calvert.

Love them! I see Dr. Barbara Estes, and she saved my life three times since 2000. Dr. Johnson saved my life once.

They both are very good doctors, and so worth the wait in the waiting room for good doctors who care about women's health and well being.
