I was recommended to see her when I had a positive pregnancy test but knew something was wrong. Turned out I was experiencing a miscarriage and it ended up being the first of three in a short period of time. She was very concerned about what was causing me to lose my pregnancies and was very proactive to get genetic testing on both me and my husband. We found out what was going on and I went into my 4th pregnancy with a game plan which worked and I had my one and only baby. She was the kindest doctor, but I made a huge mistake and scheduled my induction (due to the above medical issue) on a day that she was not on call. BIG mistake. She was so excited to see me the next day though and she did my follow-up visit and then left the practice. She is now practicing at Kaiser I believe and so I can't see her since that's not my insurance. But I absolutely adored her. She was not just compassionate about my situation with the miscarriages, but she stayed to listen to me one day when I was… having an emotional breakdown after we had a family situation. I've never had a doctor do that before. She was not just concerned about my baby's well-being or my physical well-being, but also my emotional well-being. I wish I could find someone like her that accepts my insurance now.

Dr. odum preformed my cesarean section that turned into an emergency in the OR , she monitored me and made the decision to ultimately keep me in the hospital and deliver my little girl which saved her life. She also gave me the option of starting pitocin or having a csection and gave me the pros and cons of both and chose to let me decide. After my daughter was born she was in the NICU and before doctor odum came to check on me the next morning she went to check on my daughter which made me feel really good and i really appreciated that.

Dr. Odum was informative, professional, and answered all of my questions. I recently had a bad experience with another doctor, but she was the total opposite and I would recommend her to any woman
