Dr. Teressa L Alexander, MD

This doctor is a terrible doctor. Especially to African American clients. I had my first prenatal visit with this doctor at 8 weeks pregnant. At the visit I told the Dr. Alexander that I had fibroids and was high risk. She said that she would refer me to high risk specialist at 20 weeks. I starting having complications, severe cramping and bleeding. I was seen in the emergency room a few times. I made an appointment with Dr. Alexandra and she told me that bleeding and cramping were normal for women with fibroids and assured me my baby was fine without even checking me. She sent me home with A prescription for pain killers. I ended up pushing to see a high risk specialist sooner than 20 weeks. I saw the specialist 2 Days after meeting with Dr. Alexandra who confirmed that my fibroids had got to big and the baby passed away at 11 weeks. My baby could have been saved had Dr. Alexandra cared enough to send me to a high risk specialist in the beginning instead of dismissing me. After doing some research and talking with other doctors there was a number of things that could have been tried to prevent miscarriage. I needed monitoring and special drugs. Either this doctor doesn’t know what she is doing or doesn’t care about mother and baby.

I would never consider seeing any other DR! She was fantastic when both my children were born and helpful with any issue that has arose since. I refer her to all my family and friends and they feel the exact same way!
