Hi all,

Can somebody of you ladies who live here and have experience with a gynaecologist in Santo Domingo or surroundings let me know. Also any info about the whereabouts if any of a homoeopathic one is really appreciated.

You can e-mail or pm me.

Thanks,

CB.

I'm not a lady, but my wife is! Tamara Frankenburg at Clinica Abel Gonzalez on Abraham Lincoln in Santo Domingo is the best. She delivered our first child and Lord willing, will deliver the second this July. Also, she is fluent in English. Her office phone is 563-3656.

Cloggie, if you want a gynaecologist who is sympathetic to alternative approaches and not the usual C-section merchant so common here, I recommend Dra Jenny Garcia. She speaks reasonably good English too.

Her practice is at Atabey women's health centre, calle Socorro Sanchez in Gazcue, tel 412 8212. The only drawback (I am a patient of hers) is that she is so popular that waiting times can be very long. The centre is very pleasant and there are other practitioners there, pre-natal courses etc.

Jenny may be able to recommend a suitable colleague if necessary.

Thanks Ihtown and Chiri.

I appreciate your response !!

It's my own shyness that let to this road of reply.
Unfortunately my searching for a gynaecologist has nothing to do with pregnancy, if you or anybody else has this ' other road ' information it is greatly appreciated and needed

Thanks again,

CB.

Another vote for Jenny Garc?a

She is and ob-gyn and also a specialist in infertility. I used to see her when she was in the UCE clinic about 3 years ago. A very nice doctor that stresses the need for a healthy life as part of the treatment.

Not a woman but....

My sisters and my wife have some experience in this field...

Jos? Pl?cido Montero at the UCE seems to be one of the most renowned. Perfect english (educated in the US).

Good luck,

Jojo

lhtown,

I tried the number you posted for Dra. Tamara Frankenburg, but it seems to be a faxnumber. Also, when I called clinica Abel Gonzalez, they didn't know her.
Do you have another contact number ?
Thanks

You must have called Clinica Abel Gonzalez on Av. Independencia. Her office is on the second floor across the hall from the delivery rooms at Clinica Abel Gonzalez on Av. Abraham Lincoln. There are two of them.

Here is the number: Dra. Tamara Frankenburg: 563-3656;563-1557;cel.543-5408 I am sorry, the first number must be the fax number. Usually it is my wife that calls! Ordinarily, her secretary will answer the office phone. Also, you might not get anyone during lunch hours.

Clinica Abel Gonzalez ? 227-2235
