    Dr. Rizk is kind, patient, gentle, and informative. I had what I'm sure were a few odd questions and at no point did she act like I was stupid for asking them, and she answered them clearly and concisely. She has a wonderful, calming bedside manner, as well. Highly, highly recommend.

    Abby was wonderful! She was my midwife for the birth of my son and I'm so glad. It was an unmedicated birth and she was patient and encouraging and when my baby's heart slowed down she took the action needed to get him out quickly & safely. At my six week appointment we discussed the birth and I was able to thank her properly for all she did. I would happily have her help with my next baby's birth.
