Carter O Lomax Jr., MD

"Dr Lomax is awesome. He is very smart and good at what he does. I can always trust him for his honest opinion and know that my baby is in good hands. He delivered my first via c section because she was breech and now over seeing my second pregnancy."

"I want to express my gratitude. Thank you for your concern, if not for your help, my husband and I would not have seen our happiness. Our happiness is already seven years !! My pregnancy is not an easy one (I gave birth to a son at 40), but thanks to Dr. Lomax and his team, my husband and I have been enjoying our happiness for seven years. Before, I am pregnant with our son, I lost my first son in the fifth month of pregnancy (through the fault of another doctor) then I was advised to contact Dr. Lomax, he did everything he could. Thank you very much for your work."

"Over the course of two pregnancies, I saw Dr. Lomax a handful of times. Each time I waited 45+ minutes. I never had to wait more than 10 minutes with any of the other providers in the office. His bedside manner leaves something to be desired as he spends a lot of time talking about his dogs and whatever expensive electronics he's recently purchased. If I had an actual medical concern, he was dismissive and borderline rude. The night I went into labor with my daughter, I had been having intense contractions 5 min apart for 2 hours. I called the after-hours number, they informed me Dr Lomax was on call that night. When he called me back he never said hello or introduced himself. As I was trying to say "Hello, is this Dr Lomax?" he cut me off saying "Just tell me what's going on. I was asleep." - nevermind the fact that I was the one who'd been awake all night in LABOR. The whole phone call he was very rude and abrasive, as though I intentionally went into labor on the night he was on call. So I told him what was happening, that I was having really intense contractions 5 minutes apart for over two hours at this point. He told me it was probably nothing, just from my exam earlier in the day(with a different provider in the office). He said if I wanted I could have the nurses check me at the hospital, but that he was going back to sleep. After that, I tried to thank him for his time out of common courtesy when he hung up on me. I'm not someone who cries easily, but after that phone call, I broke down. I don't know about you, but I don't like being yelled at by a healthcare "professional" while I'm in labor. The rest of the story I'll condense for you. I tried to slow my labor, taking a shower, googling anything I could, because I did not want Dr. Lomax delivering my baby. It didn't work, we left for the hospital, and I ended up feeling the urge to push when we were still 30 minutes out. We stopped at a hospital along the way, where even though I walked in off the street, in the middle of the night, I was treated with more kindness and dignity than I ever received from Dr Lomax any of the times I was his patient. Thank God there was a hospital there because otherwise I would have delivered my daughter on the side of the road. I was angry (so angry I knew I couldn't write a review without spewing) about this experience for a long time, but now a year and a half later, I'm mostly just appalled that an OB would ever treat his patient like that. I just hope that no one else will ever be treated like that while laboring to bring their baby into the world. We deserve better than that."
