When my husband and I decided to start a family, we knew the best decision would be to switch to UC Blue & Gold so I could find a top obstetrician closer to home. Having access to the best maternity care has always been a top priority, not just for myself but for our baby. We thought being surrounded by leading expertise at this important step in our lives and having direct access to UC Davis Children’s Hospital – Sacramento’s only nationally ranked children’s hospital – were priceless benefits.
Now 8 months pregnant, and throughout my pregnancy journey, my obstetrician Jocylen Glassberg and broader care team have made me feel incredibly comfortable, just like family, and have happily answered my endless questions as a soon-to-be first-time mom.
Everyone makes me feel like a partner in my care. They are always eager and quick to help and listen to my needs, no matter how big or small my questions may be.
It is truly a special feeling to be surrounded by world-class experts at a hospital that is also my employer – it feels like home. I have the utmost confidence in delivering my baby at UC Davis Medical Center, especially knowing we have the highest-level of care for newborns if needed. I couldn’t imagine myself or my baby receiving care anywhere else.
Fun fact: I love any excuse to bake as well as skiing in Tahoe with my family.
