@thepicklemonster: Since it's niggling in the back of your mind maybe ask around for other suggestions or maybe check local Facebook groups. You could even schedule a meet and greet type appointment with someone else just to see if there's someone awesome you're missing out on or if staying put makes more sense.

My old OB for DD was like this. It felt really crap just being a number, especially as a first time Mum.
For pregnancy #2, I sought out a new one and he was amazing - always took the time, remembered our IF history. That pregnancy ended in miscarriage & he took care of me through that too.
I went back to him for this pregnancy & he's been so good. He saw me weekly in the first trimester because of my recurrent miscarriage anxiety and he just gets it.
Changing OBs was the best thing I did! I think it's well worth looking around or at least meeting an alternative to see!

My first OB was like this. She had so many patients and I saw a midwife half the time. I didn't take it personally, and actually my midwife seemed to really remember me and my history.
My OB with my second two pregnancies seems to remember a lot about me. Maybe not every detail about my prior pregnancies or everything we have discussed, but she knows I have two boys, what me and my husband do for work, as well as the general game plan for the pregnancy.

It doesn't bother me but it's clear that my OB is pretending to know me by chart reading before she enters room. I get it bc they have soooo many patients
