Just checking to see if anyone knows of any doctor that has helped someone in ND. I know there is one RE in a neighboring town, but wanted to see if anyone knows of a caring doctor.

I am in Northdakota and I go to Dr.Christenson (RE) in fargo.As far as I know I think he is the only RE here in ND. Are u looking for a doctor that deals with infertility or another issue?

I am just looking for a doctor that will help me! I live in Mandan...Fargo is a bit of a drive, but I am will to go anywhere to get someone to listen to me and help me! I am going to go back to me FP first and see what he can do and then if I need a referral I just wanted to know who to ask him to send me to.
We are not looking to try to have a baby again yet or anything, I just want a doctor that will listen to me and what is going on with me and not just throw BCP and say this will take care of "it" What is it????

I do know that Dr.Billings in Minot whom is a OB doctor is very good also.That would be a little closer for you. BTW im in Devilslake.

I see Dr. Christiansen in Fargo - not really sure if I like him or not though.

But, a friend of mine with PCOS sees Dr. Shannon Bradley - OBGYN, at the Mid Dakota Clinic in Bismarck. She has had really good luck controlling her PCOS with her.

And apparantly Dr. Randy Corfman is suppose to be a pretty good RE - if when you want to have another child. He is also at the Mid Dakota Clinic.

Hope this helps, and good luck!!

I see Dr. Christensen in Fargo too. I used to live in Devils Lake and saw Dr. Bittner (FP) and found that she was great. She was the first doctor who knew what was going on with me. We were trying to conceive when we lived in the western part of the state and we saw Dr. Fishbach (OB/GYN) at Unimed in Minot. He is kind of gruff and bossy. I much prefer Dr. Christensen (RE) even though he is a man! He sees a lot of women who have PCOS and I would drive from Devils Lake to see him too because it was worth it and I could be monitored anywhere. I have seen a LOT of doctors since I was about 14 and I think he is the best. I highly encourage you just to try him once and if you don't like it, drop him and see someone else!
