Obgyn in Fremont

“Dr. Kramer is an outstanding physician. It's hard to believe that I have been his patient for the last 25 years. I am truly going to miss him and I wish him nothing but the best in his retirement. Good luck and God bless.“

“I strongly recommend Dr Padmaja Sharma for obstetrics and gynecology consultation.She is highly knowledgeable, hardworking , dedicated and responsive . She listens and understands patient concerns very keenly and treats accordingly.She SAVED MY LIFE.I thought my pregnancy period was going on smoothly except for nausea and vomitings but all of a sudden I started suffering from cholestasis and pre eclampsia from 34 weeks. She closely monitored me and my baby and responded to all my messages and phone calls even if it is not working hour and intervened timely and delivered the baby safely at the end of 36 week.After delivering the baby she gave me prophylactic treatment for pre eclampsia and took great care of me. I am very much thankful to her and her team.“

“First off, I want to emphasize some important things about the Washington Hospital Birthing experience here in case people don't read the full review: 1.) Breast-Feeding First Hospital Washington Hospital is a breast-feeding first hospital and they will highly encourage (at times maybe push) for this way of feeding for the newborn. In case you already know you don't want this specific method, you should probably search another hospital that is more alternative friendly to formula or expressing milk from pumping into a bottle. 2.) Natural Delivery (not officially stated) Based on my experience, they also highly prefer doing a natural delivery if at all possible rather than going for a c-section. Of course they will make the right call if there is a high-risk of natural delivery issues but they will try their best to give a natural delivery if they can. 3.) No Nursery (only NICU - neonatal intensive care unit) For safety reasons, they have gotten rid of their general nursery (no chance of accidentally switching the baby with another as well as more bonding time with the baby). As such, keep in mind that your baby will be with you at all times even when you are exhausted and need a break. If you prefer a hospital with a general nursery so you can rest, you should also look elsewhere. FULL REVIEW (more detailed breakdown): [[ Parking ]] Although they have ample parking and overflow lots in the adjacent street, the actual parking lot in front of the hospital/birthing center is small and tight in size. If you happen to go at a busy time, you definitely will not find parking and this can be stress-inducing if your wife is already feeling contractions. They do have a drop-off / pick-up area but I did not find the overall parking situation great. I hope they are able to expand out their parking lot in the future in front of the main entrance to relieve stress. [[ Security ]] There is a security check-in and bag inspection before even getting to the 2nd floor birthing area. When the baby is born, they will also be geo-tagged to make sure they are not taken out of the hospital without permission and they are very careful around this area. [[ Labor & Delivery Staff, Security, Postpartum Staff, Doctors ]] Overall, I would like to say most of the staff here are extremely caring and very supportive. They would check-in often to see how things are going and I believe genuinely love their jobs and babies as well. The staff that helped us were all parents themselves and can relate to what we are going through and always gave tips on what to do in the future in order to have an easier time. Keep in mind, a variety of staff (nurse, lab staff, doctors) will be in and out at various times so expect a TON of traffic into your room. On the whiteboard in your room, you will have a dedicated nurse and a supervisor (in case you can't reach your nurse) with their numbers to dial in case you need help. They all have shifts so the staff will change often after their shift is over and you will get a new staff to help you. [[ Facilities ]] Before you are officially admitted, you will first go to a holding room for a while to make sure the labor and delivery is actually coming soon. After that, they will move you to your permanent room. The permanent room is decently sized and the pull out-bed couch for me was long enough (I'm 5' 11'' and fit well). We overpacked since we had no idea what we needed but I was able to fit my medium sized luggage, two backpacks, a duffel, and various other blankets/pillows without too much issue. See picture for a general idea of what it looks like. The only downside I think of the room is the bathroom/shower area. It's VERY small and I only used the shower once since I thought it was uncomfortable. I'm not sure how someone who just delivered a baby can comfortably use the shower without feeling cramped. Hopefully it will get a remodel soon? The A/C is also constantly on which is okay during the day time but it's really cold at night. Definitely use the provided blanket“
