View Full Version : Naval Doctor or a doctor out in town? Callie 07-01-2006, 01:03 PM I am going to a OB/GYN off of the tricare standard list instead of going to the Navy Doctor. What are you doing? =Mrs.AiNokeA= 07-01-2006, 01:08 PM I just go to the Navy one I dont really care either way. :D NavyChiefs_Wife 07-01-2006, 01:22 PM When I was pregnant I went to a military doctor, it wasn't Navy I had to see an AirForce doctor. It was great, I loved him. Brooke 07-01-2006, 01:25 PM If i had the choice, i would definately go out in town! RockstarMom 07-01-2006, 02:16 PM Naval and I hate it so far. I do like my doctor, but the team I am with is AWFUL with scheduling. Kaymara 07-01-2006, 03:22 PM Out in town. The Naval hospital here doesn't do pregnancy so you are automatically referred out. This is the same Dr and hospital I had E at and I love em to death. Chevy_Gurl 07-01-2006, 03:23 PM Tricare midwife. I hate the one I have now cuase my orginal one who i loved went on maternity leave :pout Id go standard if I could afford it. Germanchick 07-01-2006, 03:48 PM Clinic on base and I love the doc I have Brandi 07-01-2006, 03:58 PM I live by Kristi so I see the same docs she sees out in town. I absolutely ADORE the whole office of docs, the hospital, the care I received, the whole 9yards! I had such a great experience with my pregnancy with Shelby that we decided to have this baby a little closer to Shelby than we had originally planned because I wanted the chance to see these docs and deliver here before we go back to sea duty. I absolutely LOVE my care up here. I will never see another military doctor again unless I ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO. If we ever have another child, I will pay the extra money to be seen out in town. I know there are good military docs out there (Jaxon and Shelb's ped is a military doc and I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE him) but when it comes to my pregnancy I want the choice to see who I want to see and get the best care possible. luvmysailor2001 07-01-2006, 04:38 PM Right now I go to the Family Practice Clinic and it's a navy clinic but I see a civilian doctor. I do this only because it's the easiest at the time and I'm done having children. When I was having babies I went out on town to a GYN and had all my babies at civilian hospitals. airyn1 07-01-2006, 07:08 PM I went to the Naval hospital. I love my doctor there and I was able to see her as my doctor when I was pregnant too. footstepswife 07-01-2006, 07:14 PM All military two-I was AD and two I was a civilian First two babies I was Air Force ( and I worked at the hospital) so great care!!! with our last two babies it was Naval---third baby was in VA--I hate VA beach docs, always some one new in Damn Neck and always making comments about baby #3. Fourth baby was Lemoore naval docs and I love it!!!!! amandalaine 07-02-2006, 05:39 PM I kept my insurance from my work so I could have that as my primary and tricare as secondary, and go to civillian dr's. Even if I hadn't kept my UHC I would still be going to the civillian dr I see now because they take tricare standard...I don't really want to go to the NAS Jax hospital, and the location of my dr is much more convienant than NAS. I just kept the two insurances so I would have very little out of pocket expense regarding the hospital stay. Kellie 07-03-2006, 11:26 PM I'll be going out in town. We live to far from the base, so all my docs are civilian. *~*Cori*~* 07-04-2006, 11:07 AM I didn't get a choice :( They said since we lived close enough to a military hospital then if I went civi it would be all out of pocket or I better have another back up insurance... So... I had to have him at NAS Jax and had to been seen at Mayport or NAS for all my appts... I chose NAS so I could have a "regular" dr that didn't rotate out and then have some stranger deliver me. Caimbrie 07-04-2006, 10:09 PM Where I am in Virginia I don't have the option to go out into town for OB :( I hate the OB here. dollface 07-05-2006, 02:25 AM Navy in WA...Civilian in CA BLBnJVB3 07-05-2006, 03:54 AM We have Tricare Prime so I'm not sure how Standard works. But when I was preggo with Johnny I had a civilian OB/GYN. The whole 4 years we were in FL. Breanna and I had a civi. dr. Now I go to medical on base. If I could I'd go out in town. I begged, literally, when we got here and they said no. When I was preggo with Breanna John was a civilian so I had civi drs. |
