I have used Coastal Women's Healthcare for my last two pregnancies out of 3 boys under the care of Dr. Sinkin.

I highly recommend Coastal for your prenatal care.
I was under the geriatric pregnancy label for my last two babies and never once felt out of place. Dr. Sinkin makes you feel strong and like a true super hero. He makes you laugh and leaving your appointments with a higher confidence.

Although Dr. Sinkin was not available when I went into labor for either of my last two boys I knew I was in good hands knowing an OB from the Coastal team would be part of my delivery as I saw most of them throughout my prenatal appointments and had great experiences with all. I have to specifically thank Dr. Shinners for my last delivery she was nothing short from highly intelligent, organized, unbelievable communication, and was so grateful she delivered our most recent and last baby.

Coastal you rock!

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to Dr. Shinners and the whole Coastal team! The amount of personalized care we received during our pregnancies, especially our high risk pregnancy, allowed us to feel comfortable and informed throughout. I am truly grateful for all the support and care that the team has provided, and would highly recommend Dr. Shinners. Thank you all so much!!

As a first time mom with a previous miscarriage I was a nervous nelly! The staff a coastal women's was always there to ease my nerves and willing to see me at the drop of a hat! I love the entire staff! Special shout out to Annie in the lab for being the best phlebotomist on the planet! Also to Dr. Burkley and her team of nurses for always taking care of me! We're celebrating our beautiful daughter who is now 9 months!

I lost my first child at 29 weeks gestation. Dr. Slager came in first thing in the morning and stayed with me all day through our painful stillbirth delivery. When I became pregnant again she stood by me and eased my fears every day. I was always able to reach her or one of the other fantastic providers. When my son was born she again visited me and gushed over my newborn. Two years later we did it all over again. She made sure that I had round the clock care and any time I needed an appointment Coastal was there for me.

We were referred to Dr. Slater when we became pregnant with our first daughter in 2012 and were so impressed by the care from all staff that we tell all of our expecting friends that's the place to go for THE BEST prenatal care. Dr Slager not only eased your mind, but educates you and is very straightforward, which was super important to me. We just had our third daughter a week ago and was extremely satisfied with our care. Would 100% recommend.

I've been going to Coastal Women's for several years and I'm currently a patient of Dr. Slager. I have been so impressed with the staff, nurses and doctors over the years. When I first met with Dr. Slager and told her about a very rare ciliary condition I have that could effect fertility, I was surprised when she said she was familiar with the condition. Such a relief. I've been going to doctors my entire life and can count on one hand how many doctors didn't need me to explain my condition. She is extremely intelligent, personable and straightforward, just what I wanted in a doctor. She addressed all my concerns, came up with solutions and eased any worry I had about my condition and pregnancy. Dr. Slager was with us through our entire infertility journey, from referring us to an IVF specialist, the loss of a pregnancy, to delivering our sweet daughter. She was so supportive and we came to view her as friend.

One particular event that differentiated Coastal Women's from other places for my husband and I is when I had a miscarriage during our IVF process. Losing the pregnancy was very difficult and we didn't feel much support from the IVF clinic. To us, it seemed like this was business as usual to them and it felt like our loss was just part of the process, on to the next step. Isn't wasn't until we came to Coastal for my D&C that we truly saw what it was like to feel supported. Prior to the procedure the nurse sat down with us and asked how we were doing emotionally and gave us resources for coping, should we need it. We were so taken-aback by this care and concern, it was something that had been missing from the IVF clinic.

I highly recommend Coastal Women's and Dr. Slager to anyone looking for quality women's care.

At a time of vulnerability with two high-risk pregnancies, I relied on the quality care of Dr. Shinners and followed her strategic and precautionary course which resulted in two beautiful, healthy baby girls. Dr. Shinners may be my doctor, but she feels like a good friend. I left every frequent prenatal visit feeling informed and grateful to have her by my side. We were lucky to have Dr. Shinners deliver our second daughter, where Dr. Shinners had to actually run several flights of stairs to make our 'fast and furious' delivery- a testament to her unrelentless care from the beginning to the end! All of the staff at CWHC have made our experiences there wonderful and I feel so fortunate to have such quality care close to home.

I have been a patient of Dr. Dawson's and Coastal for almost 15 years. Her love for her job is apparent the minute she walks into the room to greet you, and you immediately feel comfortable in her presence. She has seen me through some ups and downs but most importantly through my 2 pregnancies and the birth of my first baby. What I remember most about my delivery was her calm demeanor during the toughest times. She kept smiling and saying "you have such a happy baby!" as she listened to the heartbeat on the monitor. I will never foget that!
I have also been able to see many of the other providers there over the years and would recommend them highly to anyone. I can't say enough about the care you receive as a patient at Coastal.

I can't express how wonderful Coastal Women's is and Dr Dawson has been throughout my entire pregnancy. Towards the end of my pregnancy I had a few troubling issues and she was there to help in every which way. Dr Slager delivered my sweet boy and she was amazing throughout the entire delivery process and we can't thank her enough!

Dr Dawson delivered some of my friends babies and they couldn't express how wonderful she was and recommended her to me. I will be doing the same to all my friends who are looking for an amazing team at coastal women's!
Coastal women's made my pregnancy very stress free from extra ultrasounds for complications to lab work and referring me to correct my anemia to another wonderful blood specialist. They were on top of everything to make sure my pregnancy remained healthy to bring a healthy baby into this world.

I chose Coastal Women's before I became pregnant and I was so happy I did! I had a "textbook" pregnancy up until week 35 when I woke up and realized my daughter was not as active as she should have been. I called the Care Team for Dr Dawson to see what I should do and they immediately took me seriously and got an appointment for an ultrasound. After the ultrasound revealed some concerns, it was recommended I head straight to the hospital. As I was leaving (quite upset and scared), Holly ran down the hallway to make sure I would be okay to drive myself to the hospital and give her reassurance. Once at the hospital I met a Dr Slager in the elevator (mid-lunch) who, after monitoring, recommended a c-section was the best course of action to get my little girl out and into medical care. Her matter-of-fact and caring nature helped keep me calm (for the most part!). A little while later, my little girl was in the NICU and I was recovering. While the experience was scary and full of uncertainty, the confidence that Dr Slager gave off was hard to ignore. The care I received from Dr Dawson, Dr Slager and Dr Shinners was incredible. I may not have been their patient but they knew everything that went on and were so caring. I am so incredibly grateful to everyone I came into contact with at Coastal, they helped me ensure I was able to bring my little girl home and celebrate all her milestones. I can't say enough good things about the doctors at Coastal. They're all wonderful!!

I have been going to Coastal Women's for a few years now and see Dr. Slager. I can't say enough amazing things about Coastal Women's. Dr. Slager helped me explore my options when I thought I would have a hard time becoming pregnant. When I did get pregnant, the care I received throughout my pregnancy was nothing short of amazing. From the ultrasound techs to the reception staff to the doctors, everyone was so kind and helpful.
The moment my husband and I entered the hospital to be induced, Dr. Sinkin saw us in the hall, greeted us, and showed us to our room. Dr. Scott was the doctor on duty the day I delivered my son. She was incredibly encouraging throughout the birthing process and so kind. I experienced a rare, deep cervical tear and ended up in the operating room, losing half of my blood volume. I can't thank Dr. Scott enough for her skills, quick decisions, and for saving my life that day. She reassured me that everything would be just fine and that they would fix the problem promptly.
All the doctors I have seen postpartum have been so reassuring and caring as well. I can't say enough amazing things about this practice and how they saved my life!
