That does sound strange Andrea and I would also wonder the same thing about her relationship with other doctors in the community. However, giving her the benefit of the doubt, perhaps it's her own personal belief that referrals would be putting herself out on a limb should the referred doctor not live up to the patient's expectations. In that respect, I can understand her reluctance to give you a referral. Perhaps if you call the hospital close to your home that you are considering delivering in they can give you a list of OB's to contact. It's usually "safer" to give a list of referrals than to narrow it down to one singular selection. (for the purpose of avoiding backlash should things not work out). Usually there are OB offices in close proximity to a hospital with maternity wards and if you are in a large city, some OB practices have more than one office location as well. At the risk of sounding like a cliche' consult your yellow pages.

Best of luck to you and congratulations!
