She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and for an incredibly scary situation put my mind at ease as much as possible. She is incredibly personable but will tell you how it is, when need be. I appreciate her honest approach to my care and keeping me in the know. She has done everything possible to help me keep this baby and I credit her with me making it as far as I have (35 weeks and counting!!), when originally I was expecting an extremely preterm baby. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Lanni!!!

Dr. Lanni is a saint. I went to her for a 2nd opinion after being told by a complete ahole doctor…read moreat Virginia Physicians for Women (don't go there!) that I should "terminate my pregnancy because of my baby showing a cystic hygroma." Dr. Lanni was compassionate but no nonsense. She talked to me about my baby's 50/50 chance of having a major issue or being fine. She was with me every step of the way, did my amnio, tons of ultrasounds, answered questions any time I had them, and thank God my baby's hygroma resolved at 20 weeks and today I have a perfectly healthy 1 month old baby girl. Without Dr. Lanni, her excellent nurse Karen and kind, compassionate office staff who always remembered me when I came, I think I may have lost it during this stressful pregnancy. She made what was a stressful time easier to bear, and she is top notch in her expertise and knowledge of maternal and fetal medicine. HIGHLY RECC Dr Lanni!! I drove from southside to see her @ MCV, she's that good. Her OB appts are only on Tuesdays because she has other duties on other days (she is also head of 2 depts at MCV and lectures).

In reference to my experience with Dr.Knapp…read more It is important to note that no this is not my first time with her. I've been with her for almost a year. I wanna say if not a year or more and I won't say this has been building up, but I The final straw. This gynecologist normally she is similar to a roadrunner. She talks really really fast and she talks over you and you will have to let her know that she is doing it because sometimes it seems as though she is not acknowledging it or she's just in her train of thought so that kind of ticked me off when I first initially met her but ultimately This is the reason why I'm leaving this practice. I chose to share my story simply because I want minorities women of color and just women overall truthfully to make sure you're very conscious about what your physicians are saying to you or at you rather and pay attention to the signs. For some background, I am a woman that has been experiencing pain in my lower abdomen and back, experiencing ovarian cyst, some filled with blood, and some filled with fluid. Due to This constant issue there have beenan untold number of times I've been in pain in reference to gynecological issues, unsure if it is endometriosis ,pcos etc. But the doctor listed above stated that there is no way for her to figure out if it is endometriosis or just PCOS or if it if I just have adrenal cyst, the only solution that she offered me was to get on the IUD specifically morena. Now this is not been the only time that she has recommended using an IUD as it would best work with the medication's that I'm also currently on to handle other matters, but I was cautious about it due to the fact that my body seems to be one of those types of bodies that experiences the horrible side effects and if not most things don't work for me. So today when I knew she would probably re-approach it as I'm going in for probably the 15th vaginal ultrasound in her not seeing anything or her seeing too small assist for them to do anything about it XYNZ she goes about this the topic of choosing an IUD and so this time I indulge her and I ask more about it and I asked what her knowledge is about it in reference to me being an African-American female. What I thought was going to be an intellectual in-depth discussion and I was going to gain further knowledge from speaking with her mind you yes for a side note she is a Caucasian lady, but has treated me decently so I thought we were above what I just experienced. during this conversation, she is the type to cut you off if she has something to say and whatever and partially, I didn't mind it due to the fact that I can be like that too when I either don't take my medications or I'm stemming really bad at that current point in time but during this conversation, she obviously saw that I was .trying to make a very conscious decision about putting something inside of my body that I don't really have much faith in and you seem to only be able to do just that one thing to help subside the symptoms so yes, I'm going to ask more questions. so what should've been a conversation of gaining more knowledge so that I can make a better decision for myself. She goes on to say oh I'm not sure about the recent studies in it. It's been around for 40 years and it's been proven to be very effective and I'm asking her I said OK but what is the real statistics on African-American females at my age or maybe slightly older or even younger? Who get this IUD and what kind of problems do they have if they have symptoms like mine? She then proceeds to tell me that she doesn't know. She just knows that it's been around for about 40 years and so on and so forth and I said well that's not very comforting for me to even consider putting it inside of my body because I would think that you would keep up with the statistics for African-American females, and apparently that set her off. She felt insulted that I insulted her intelligence, and I questioned her as a doctor not that I stood up for myself, and I was trying to understand exactly what she was trying to get me to understand, but she felt undermined essentially. so when I was trying to continue the conversation, she kept trying to cut me off. She got up and she basically stormed out of the room because I said "wow that's rude of you to just walk off while we're talking " she responds : no, what's rude of you is to question and question my education and what I actually look at and things like that. Me:I said why wouldn't I if you just told me you have no idea about the statistics that that is you telling me that you do not understand or you don't know or not even a that's a good question. Hey, I'll get back to you on that. No, It was an immediate get come face to face with me and just ran the room but came back and to slam things on the countertop and then she just left and she slammed the door. Yes, I will admit I did call her a child for her antics and how she exited the exam room because I jus
