Every decision my husband and I made during pregnancy/birth/postpartum was aided by Cori's professional advice, personal experience (when asked) and a supportive hand. She let us make informed decisions that we thought were right for us without feeling forced or scared. I had my first born in a birthing clinic here in Dallas and had a less than pleasant experience. It was worthwhile to have such a great experience with Cori and have my baby at home. I hope to have many more babies with her by my side!

Cori was by far the best choice for a midwife. My husband and I were new to the midwife practice…read more We were always interested in having a midwife and a home birth but were unsure of the entire process and the unfamiliarity. We both interviewed a few midwife practices in the DFW area, and we felt comfortable with Cori right away. She had the perfect balance between being personable and professional at the same time. I felt safe with asking her questions without being judged. She always asked what questions we would have multiple times throughout our appointments with her. She also never rushed us during appointments, and really took her time and gave us the full appointment to her undivided attention. She explains everything very well, using different resources. Cori is extremely respectful of different cultural practices, she even asks about any a couple would like to practice during the pregnancy and birth so she can be aware and accommodate. She also has a great community of Doulas, other midwives, doctors, chiropractors and pelvic floor therapists she is connected to. When the day finally came, Cori was extremely calm. Her voice and tone was calming, moved in the room without excessive noise (which was very helpful, during the last stages of labor) and she was completely prepared. I loved her availability through text messages anytime i forgot to ask her something, and this was especially helpful during labor, for both my husband and doula. Highly recommend having Cori part of anyone's pregnancy and birth journey, she'll definitely be part of our second pregnancy!

I am still trying some od her advices but I am very pleased with our meeting. You can also meet online because of the Pandemic. I just think that your first appointment should be in person so she can take a real look to baby's latch, positions, etc. She is very busy so plan ahead. I know it could be impossible with a baby and with turning of events, but try your best so you can resolve any issue fast :) The meeting will be very private.

It's…read morebeen a couple of years since I worked with NDDA to assist me with our first born daughter born in 2021. Melissa at NDDA was incredible from start to finish. When I originally called to ask some general questions about what exactly a doula does, she was kind, patient, and so freaking educated about the process of childbirth. We were offered a tour of Baylor hospital (virtual due to COVID), newborn classes, and tons of educational resources after booking with NDDA. What stood out to me most was the fact that the all female team there just made you feel like you were so seen, every step of the way. As a Black woman, childbirth can be an extremely scary experience, just look up the statistics of mistreatment in the healthcare space for minorities. Melissa and team advocated for my husband and I. We felt taken care of every step of the way. Thank you NDDA!

I wanted to honor my placenta because it's such an incredible and powerful organ, and I'm obsessed with the art prints. They're both framed and are hanging up in my daughters' room. I've worked with Meredith L. and Madison Prez for the placenta encapsulation. They were both very easy to contact and responded promptly over text. I worked with Madison most recently, and she picked up the placenta and quickly processed it and delivered it to my home. I got placenta pills, a tincture, the keepsake cord, and the art print. I love the packaging and branding too- very alice in wonderland. I highly recommend this service and would work with Madison again. The art print she made was stunning!

I feel it is important to share my experience with Angie to provide transparency and help others…read moremake informed decisions. To clarify, I did not hire Angie for my birth or pregnancy care. My baby was delivered by a different midwife, who managed my home birth without complications. However, my midwife required emergency surgery after my delivery. Based on positive feedback from my doula, I sought Angie's help for postpartum care. Regrettably, I did not do sufficient additional research beyond my doula's recommendation. Three days postpartum, I passed a major blood clot that tore all of my vaginal stitches open. Since my midwife was unavailable, Angie came to perform the restitching procedure. Unfortunately, this procedure led to several issues: excessive suture material caused unnecessary tension and discomfort, some stitches that had torn were not adequately removed, and the stitches were excessively tight, causing significant pain and a prolonged recovery. Following the restitching, I began to develop an infection around the area and went through several rounds of antibiotics, but nothing seemed to work. Eventually, I was referred to OBGYN Dr. Payne, who examined me and confirmed that the stitching had been done incorrectly. Dr. Payne advised that surgery was necessary to correct the issues and address the daily pain I was experiencing. I sent Angie a detailed letter outlining the hardships and frustrations I experienced with my postpartum recovery. In response, Angie reached out to my midwife, suggesting a coffee meeting for the three of us. Unfortunately, we had to reschedule twice due to their scheduling conflicts, and after the second cancellation, Angie never reached back out to my midwife to reschedule. She never acknowledged the letter, offer a simple apology, or attempt to reach out to me directly. Instead, communication was solely through my midwife, who acted as an intermediary. Despite understanding that medical complications can occur, clear communication and direct support are essential. My hope is that this review provides valuable insight for others and encourages Angie to reflect on this feedback for future improvement. (My birth was October 2023, and my surgery occurred December 2023. As of September 2024, I would say I'm about 90% healed but still have some vaginal issues/pain during intimacy)

Angie lacks discernment, empathy, and knowledge in her profession. She misdiagnosed me with a…read moreserious condition and told us our son would likely not be compatible with life on the outside, and if he was, we could look forward to a NICU stay - with a stone cold face and monotone voice. Even under the impression that our pregnancy may not be viable, she failed to follow up with high risk providers and proper care. Come to find out my pregnancy was perfectly healthy, and Angie just doesn't know how to read radiology reports. I will publish the letter I sent her when I fired her for more detail. My only regret with this letter is that I was too nice. I see now that she took nothing out of this experience besides money. We received no apology or reconciliation and Angie ran off with thousands of dollars. I did tell her that we didn't wish to be pressured to continue services, but she had ample time make amends beforehand and failed to. Angie made numerous false claims in my medical records, including a false history of diseases. When I complained that I felt pelvic pressure consistent with prolapse, Angie charted this as a "saggy vagina". Not only is this unprofessional, it's offensive and medically wrong. Angie was not as kid friendly as she portrays herself. She made no effort to involve my toddler in our visits and even asked my husband to take him out of the room multiple times, disconnecting my husband and son from the prenatal experience. I see Angie's blasphemous replies. I don't feel like going back and forth so I'll leave this: if you're here, you know that midwifery can be a great option. Midwifery is safe. Angie is not. Angie is not the face of midwifery and it's hilarious that she's imposed this pedestal on herself. To Angie - your inability to accept responsibility shows you have 0 intentions of changing the way you practice. No co-conspirators. No cyber bullying. I have proof to back up my claims. A simple apology could have prevented this review. To expectant moms; don't be like me. These reviews are here for your wellbeing. Move forward with your search. There are many great choices in this area and Angie isn't one, nor will she ever be. To clarify, I did not risk out of midwifery care. The OB I consulted actually told me I could proceed with home birth. I CHOSE to leave Angie as my letter clearly shows. I had an extremely healthy pregnancy and birthed with ZERO interventions. I CHOSE a hospital over Angie and would do so again, gladly. Angie; don't flatter yourself and think anyone would devote their time to "co-conspiring" against you. I HATE that I have to waste any more time on you and I HATE that you are a part of my story.

I was indeed still spotting so I called the next day told them I called yesterday in regards to me spotting and they didnt have any records of me calling FIRST RED FLAG! They went ahead and scheduled me to get blood work drawn, I went got blood work done, never did I speak to Dr. Sullivan 2ND RED FLAG! I had to wait two days for my results and those two days I was filled with so much emotions. I got my results, this is my first pregnancy so I wasnt sure what my results were telling me. I called the office to ask if Dr. Sullivan could call me to go over my results with me, later on that day I receive a call from the front office and the person told me Dr. Sullivan said everything came out normal 3RD RED FLAG Dr. Sullivan didnt even take the time to speak with me and go over the results with me. Four day passes and I am still bleeding I called again to let my dr know what was going on and front office person scheduled me to go in again to get more blood work done, the phlebotomy tech couldnt find a vein and told me I had to come back and reschedule. At this point I was frustrated and wanted answers so I decide to go to the ER. I glad to say I am still currently pregnant and have found a new Dr. that actually cares for her patients! Dr. Sullivan made me feel as if my health and the well being of my child was not important! I would NEVER RECOMMED DR. SULLIVAN!

She has a great network of other prenatal professionals that she refers to. While my pregnancy and birth were healthy and fairly uneventful, I had significant postpartum depression and anxiety coupled with a very fussy newborn who had a tongue tie. Bethany helped us find the team we needed to heal. I am so thankful for all of the care she provided for my family, but I truly don't know what we would have done without her during that difficult postpartum phase. I highly recommend her to any expecting family!!
