111- Questioning the Standard of Maternity Care with Dr. Stuart Fischbein, MD
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Stuart Fischbein to discuss VBAC, informed consent, risk, hospital policies, and the state of modern maternity care.
Drawing from more than 40 years in obstetrics, Dr. Stu shares why he believes VBAC is often misunderstood, how fear and liability influence birth decisions, what current guidelines actually say, and what families can do to make informed choices about their care.
Whether you’re planning a VBAC, exploring home birth, or simply want to better understand your options, this conversation will challenge you to think critically about the standard of care and what true informed consent looks like.
