“I delivered both my beautiful babies with Dr. Marchand and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Every doctor visit up until I was in labor was great, he took all the time to answer all my questions. I didn’t feel rushed in and rushed out of the office. The office was always very clean! The staff were always very friendly. When I was in labor he made sure my birth plan was the most important thing! He always had my best interest in hand! My first delivery I was induced and it took 3 long days and Marchand kept checking on me all hours of the night!! If I did it all over again I’d definitely use Marchand as my OB again!”

“We congratulate Dr. Greg J. Marchand as SRC’s first Surgeon of Excellence in Minimally Invasive Surgery (SOEMIS) in the United States. To achieve SOEMIS accreditation, Dr. Marchand invited SRC to complete a rigorous onsite inspection and thorough chart review to illustrate his compliance with the program. Dr. Marchand and his practice exemplify SRC’s commitment to patient safety and care.”

“I initially met Dr. Marchand upon an emergency room visit due to complications during my first pregnancy. My husband and I had recently moved from out of state. Not knowing many people here, in a scary situation and finding myself hospitalized was made a lot easier once we met Dr. Marchand who we decided would be the best doctor to see my care through the pregnancy and ultimate c-section. He always had time for our questions even when we knew he had many other patients. He did a great job with the surgery and follow up care and was very pleasant, patient and professional throughout the process. When we decided to have another baby, he saw us through another pregnancy and c-section and continues to be my OB of choice. I would recommend him in a heartbeat to any girlfriends I know.”

“Growing up I have had my fair share of woman health issue from Endometriosis, PCOS, Severe Pelvic Pain, Loss of Pregnancy and Infertility and more pelvic surgeries than I can count. I have seen many different doctors till about 6-7 years ago when I needed emergency surgery and met Dr. Marchand and now I refuse to go to any one else. With the many issues I have had both Dr. Marchand as well as his whole office staff have been so helpful I couldn’t be more grateful. It’s very hard to find an honest, trustworthy doctor these days but rest assured you can’t go wrong with Dr. Greg Marchand. They are open late and almost always can fit you into the schedule for emergencies and you can always reach him no matter what time it is if you have questions. Dr. Marchand is an amazing surgeon and loves what he does. He has delivered many friends and family’s children and hope that one day he will be able to deliver mine as well.”
