What To Expect When You Visit Our Boca Raton OBGYN Practice

When you first meet with Dr Ellman and the team, you will be asked about your pregnancy and medical history. The primary goal of the meeting is to assess your current condition and to give your doctor as much information as possible. In order to get the best obstetric care, comprehensive medical information will always be welcome.

Ongoing Prenatal Appointments: Regular prenatal appointments are scheduled throughout your pregnancy to monitor both your health and baby’s development. These visits include physical exams, lab tests, and discussions about your pregnancy progress and any concerns you may have.

Managing Pregnancy Complications: While most pregnancies proceed without major complications, our team is prepared to address any issues that may arise. We provide comprehensive care for gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, and other conditions that can affect pregnancy.

Coordinated Care Team Approach: Our obstetric care involves coordination between multiple providers, including obstetricians, certified nurse midwives, maternal fetal medicine specialists, and other healthcare professionals. We work closely with your family physician when appropriate and coordinate with specialists as needed.

Newborn Care and Postpartum Support: After delivery, our care extends to include newborn care services and postpartum support. We provide guidance on infant care, breastfeeding support, and monitoring of your recovery following childbirth. We address any concerns about newborn health and provide resources for ongoing infant care. We work with you to develop management plans that protect both your health and your baby’s well-being.

Understanding Your Pregnancy Journey

First Trimester Care (Weeks 1-12)

During your first trimester, we focus on establishing comprehensive prenatal care and ensuring a healthy pregnancy foundation. Your first prenatal visit typically occurs around 8-10 weeks and includes extensive health assessment, blood tests, and urine sample collection to establish baseline health measurements.

We’ll determine your due date, discuss your family physician relationship, and begin monitoring baby’s growth through regular prenatal appointments. Blood tests during this period check your blood type, Rh factor, and screen for certain infections like Hepatitis B that could affect your pregnancy.

The second trimester brings important milestones in your pregnancy care. During this period, we’ll monitor baby’s heartbeat regularly and conduct detailed ultrasound examinations using advanced sound waves technology to assess baby’s health and development.

Prenatal tests during this period may include AFP/Quad screening and other assessments to detect potential complications early. We’ll also discuss how much weight gain is appropriate for your individual situation and monitor for any health conditions that might affect your pregnancy.

As your due date approaches, our care team intensifies monitoring to ensure both you and your growing baby remain healthy. Regular prenatal appointments include physical exams, blood tests, and assessments for potential complications that could affect delivery.

We’ll work with you to develop your birth plan, discuss labor and delivery options, and prepare for various scenarios including C section if medically necessary. Our team ensures you’re fully prepared for childbirth and understand what to expect during labor and delivery.

Specialized High-Risk Obstetric Care

For women with high risk pregnancy situations, our specialists provide enhanced monitoring and care. Medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or previous pregnancy complications may require additional prenatal care and specialized management.

Our maternal fetal medicine specialists work closely with your primary obstetric care team to monitor potential complications and ensure the best possible outcomes for both mother and baby. We coordinate care with other providers as needed to address complex health conditions.

FAQ

OB/GYNs specialize in women’s health. “OB” stands for obstetrician obstetrics, while “GYN” stands for gynecologist or gynecology. So yes, an OB/GYN is indeed a gynecologist.

All obstatcricians are gyncologists, but not all gynocologists are obstatricians. However, most gynecologists are also obstetricians. Obstetrics refers to the specific branch of medicine that relates to all medical and surgical care that happens before, during, and after a woman gives birth. Obstetricians are responsible for the woman’s pre- and postpartum health. On the other hand, gynecologists care for women of all ages — whether or not a woman has conceived a child or given birth.

If you are pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant, you should schedule an appointment to meet with an obstetrician. If your current doctor is just a gynecologist (and not an obstetrician), you can ask them to refer you to an OB/GYN. Depending on your medical history and/or conditions (for example, if you have a family history of infertility, bleeding, or diabetes), your obstetrician may want to see you even earlier.

Ask any obstetrician and Florida, and they will tell you that a few procedures may cause discomfort. Unfortunately. These things can happen, but rest assured, our experts are highly trained and will aim to give you the most tender of care every time.

Even though our obstetricians are highly trained professionals who aim to make a difference by providing the best of care, there might be still a bit of risk involved with a few treatments.

However, you shouldn’t worry. The wast majority of risks and potential complications result from inadequate care and services.

Patient Feedback

“I originally found Dr Ellman based upon his wonderful reviews. His office is very clean & welcoming along with his wonderful staff. I had the pleasure of there midwife Ilona & Dr Ellman delivering my son a few weeks ago. Ilona was wonderful and even came to my hospital room a few times after I delivered my son. She really made it a special experience for my fiancé & I. They’ve always made me feel comfortable and reassured me during my pregnancy. I cant begin to thank them enough for making my pregnancy & delivery a wonderful experience.”

Skyler D.

“Doctor Ellman is the most caring OBGYN I’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing. I’ve had debilitating pain for many many years related to my period. Dr Ellman helped me find the cause and made a plan of treatment after many failed attempts. You can tell he cares for his patients and wants to do whatever he can to help and this applies to his staff as well. I’m thankful that I found Dr Ellman and his team.”

Tia L.

“I met Dr. Ellman in 2018 when I found out I was pregnant for the first time. I was nervous and excited and the same time. Dr. Ellman explains the birthing process in the lamest of terms and I felt so comfortable with him. Anytime I had a question everyone was so helpful and the energy was so welcoming and the whole office is so knowledgeable. Best experience ever being a first time mom. Would recommend to everyone I know. I still to this day 4 years later use Dr. Ellman as my OBGYN.”
