Obstetricians and Gynecologists - Eureka, CA

"Not in my wildest dream to have a male OB-GYNE it feels awkward. But There is no other OB covered with my health card. And as far as I know he is the only OB-GYNE in St. Joseph Providence in Eureka. He is very knowledgeable about pregnancy and will surely take good care of you. The down side is he is very busy and fully booked at all time, as he is the only ob there. I cannot express my concern and cannot ask things about my pregnancy. He is always in a rush. He diagnosed that I’m GDM in my 3rd trimester, and prescribe me to do insulin which I’m very compliant. Thanks to him, my baby is in normal weight and I was able to do normal delivery. Although I cannot say anything until my delivery. I heard that a lot of his cases is end up in CS. and because, He was not in the states when the time of my delivery, and the other great male OB take over. Take God he is much nicer, and open to communicate with your needs and concern. At first Dr. Stokes wants to check my blood sugar post partum, but When I came back for a post partum consult (bcoz he is back) he was just okay your fine & forgot about me, and does not remember anything. And did not say or have care to ask about my delivery. I just can’t see myself having care under him in the future. "
