I don’t know if he will ever see this but this dr is amazing 3 years ago he did everything he could to help me get pregnant. I miscarried but I had my rainbow baby she’s now 3 years old and honestly without his help I wouldn’t be where I am today with such a beautiful little girl I highly recommend him. I’d do anything to thank him for giving me such a beautiful baby and I wish I could show him what she looks like now ?? but if you happen to see it you’ll know me as Ashlyn R.

I was referred to Dr. O as a new patient for a routine birth control visit, which ended up being more serious than anyone expected. But through the entire process (which ended up being several months), he was not only thorough and and excellent medical professional, but also a genuinely WONDERFUL person! He's friendly and amusing and down-to-earth, and I always felt like he truly cared about me as a person and not just a patient. He checked in on me EVERY MORNING during my hospital stay(s), even if just to try and lift my spirits with his goofy jokes and antics. Now I'm going to cry - I guess I'd better move back to Wisconsin! In all seriousness though - I'd recommend Dr. O over any other OB/GYN I've met to anyone. MORE than recommended...!

Not only is he an amazing doctor but he is an amazing person. He is an advocate for you throughout your pregnancy. He will be there for you. He not only did helped me get pregnant but he saved my daughters life when she was born. Without him my daughter would not be here today. He cares deeply about his patients as if they were family. You will not find a better doctor.

Oglesby is the most understanding, caring, helpful doctor I have ever met in my life. He has changed my life for the better with his amazing care and persistence. If not for him I would have literally died. I am so grateful he is my doctor.

He is very friendly and kind, but he is a HIGH RISK OBGYN which means if you don't want an un needed C-section do not go to him! Remember informed consent!
