Nurse practitioner, Rachel was great. She explained things to my daughter and then brought me in. I love that she left feeling empowered by the visit I do it on her own. Thank you!

Helping my wife with a procedure, front office staff completely ineffective at handling timely and complete authorizations needed for care. Tiffany from the front office was combative, obstructed getting the care my wife needed, and her lack of action nearly resulted in cancellation of a procedure we waited a month to schedule. Do better.

After my main provider left I switched to Dr. Baum whom I had seen previously. Dr. Baum provided exceptional care to me during a difficult pregnancy with twins, acting quickly to help with severe nausea, calling to follow up on me regularly, addressing my concerns and pregnancy side effects seriously, and most importantly providing honest and realistic expectations for my late pregnancy and delivery. I felt extremely cared for the entire time both by him and by the practice. The front office always picks up the phone, responds promptly, and follows up. While there have been changes in the practice and some physicians have left, the quality of care remains superb. I cannot recommend Dr. Baum enough for pregnancy.

I am profoundly grateful to Dr. David Baum and his team at The Association for Women’s Health Care for their exceptional care during my pregnancy. While most of my pregnancy progressed smoothly, at week 36, my baby was diagnosed with arrhythmia. Dr. Baum promptly referred me from the Northbrook location to Prentice in downtown Chicago for further monitoring. He provided unwavering support throughout the process, even attending my delivery during his off-hours and following up with a personal call the day after. His dedication, expertise, and compassionate care were truly remarkable. I highly recommend Dr. Baum to anyone seeking an OB-GYN who genuinely cares about their patients.

I’ve just come to know that the practice was sold, and that My physician as well as many other physicians left the Practice. After many years with one provider, I felt as if I was left on my own to select a new provider with no guidance other than the website. I used to love this practice, But the way they handled the lack of communication of the sale and Several of the doctors leaving was very disheartening and confusing.
