Dr. Frigoletto says it best: Fredric D. Frigoletto Jr, MD, associate chief of staff and vice chair at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, and an ACOG past president: "At this time, the best delivery mode for any woman is best decided by her and her physician, considering her individual circumstances. A woman must be thoroughly and accurately informed about the risks and benefits of each option for her as she participates in the decision," Dr. Frigoletto added.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
