Pregnancy
should be a pleasant time for you, but many changes will occur.
If you know about them, they are less likely to worry you.
We are delighted to share in the joy of a new addition to your family.

quality care and to meet your needs. Our staff consists of a caring,
and qualified team. We are available to answer any of your questions
or concerns.
We appreciate the opportunity to provide you with
health care. We've provided this booklet so that we may better serve
you. It contains answers to the questions that most patient ask.
This only addresses the most common questions. If you have any other
question please ask.
Appointments may be made by
calling the office directly 790-0099. Dr. Rosenfeld's routine
office appointment schedule is Monday, Wednesday and Friday. During
your pregnancy some of your appointments may be made with a nurse.
The nurse will check your weight, blood pressure, pulse, and measure
the baby's growth. These appointments are at less busy times on
Tuesday and Thursday, and provide ample time for your questions.
We try to see all patients on time, and request
that you extend the same courtesy to others. If you cannot keep
an appointment notify us immediately. Please try to give us 24 hour
notice so that this time may be given to another patient.
The staff can be reached daily during routine office
hours (9am-5pm) at 790-0099. If Dr. Rosenfeld is not in the office
his nurses will be happy to help you and can reach him when necessary
For Emergencies please call this same number. The operator will
have someone return your call. Please keep late hour calls to only
True Emergencies.
All prescriptions and pharmacy renewals should be
requested during routine office hours. Before you call, please have
available your pharmacy phone number, and the correct prescription
name. Dr. Rosenfeld's secretaries are prepared to assist you with
insurance claim questions. If you have a coverage question they
will work with you to find the answer. We will file all claims with
your designated carrier. If your carrier requires you to use a particular
laboratory, or get authorization for treatment, we will be glad
to assist you with this.
Please use your office visit as a time to understand
your pregnancy. There is no such thing as stupid question!
Your insurance company may determine which hospital
you must use.
Dr. Rosenfeld is using Women's Hospital of Texas for deliveries. There are special circumstances that he will deliver at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital.
We advise contacting the hospital to preregister before
the fifth month (or 20 weeks). The hospital offers tours, prenatal
classes, and sibling classes.
We encourage participation in these classes. Please contact the
hospitals in the 3rd to 4th month to register for the classes. It
is your responsibility to preregister at your hospital early in
the pregnancy. Also, many insurance companies require you to notify
them soon after the baby is born so they can add the baby to your
coverage. Please check with your insurance carrier to find out about
hospital and physician coverage for your baby. |
