Frequently Asked Questions

Philosophy and Mission

philosophy
What is the practice's general philosophy?

Every patient, every visit, every question matters. There is no question that is too small, and never do you have too many questions to answer. Your time is important to us at Carolina Elite Women’s Care. Simply Elite Care for the elite you!

What is your mission statement?

To treat you as the most important patient in the practice while delivering elite care.

How do you feel about doulas and midwives assisting with births?

We encourage doulas, midwives, soon-to-be grandmothers, other family members and friends to participate and assist with birth. Delivery is a collective experience that can be shared, if desired.

How do you feel about VBACs or vaginal births after c-sections?

We encourage VBACs; It’s a redemption story in the making for the right patient.

What do you think about birth plans?

Birth plans are a great tool to express your preferences. As a team, we review these preferences to provide a memorable delivery for the patient.

Where does Dr. Scott deliver his patients and perform surgeries?

Dr. Scott delivers at UNC REX Hospital in Raleigh, NC. Read more about this award-winning hospital with private birthing rooms and a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

What happens at the first prenatal visit?

The first visit is a consultation.  It is a getting-to-know-you visit. It is a time to ask any prepared questions and review your medical history. Typically, an ultrasound is performed to establish dating.

Does Dr. Scott perform in-office procedures such as an endometrial ablation or LEEP procedure?

Yes, there are a wide variety of procedures performed in the office setting with and without a board certified Anesthesiologist. We can provide the comfort and expertise of a hospital procedure in the office at a fraction of the hospital cost.

As a solo practitioner, what happens in the event of an emergency?

One of the benefits to selecting a solo practitioner is continuity of care. You’ll see a limited number of providers who will know and understand subtle details in your medical history to make a significant difference in your care. In the event of an emergency, hospitalized patients are the priority. In addition, Dr. Scott has a contract with the hospital laborist group, OBHG, at UNC REX Hospital. These are medical doctors who are available 24 hours a day to buffer any delay in care at the hospital. Dr. Scott limits the number of new patients to continue to provide elite care and minimize any inconveniences to his patients.

How do I contact Dr. Scott after hours for emergencies?

During the day, we can be reached at our Garner (919-977-7095) or Raleigh (981-200-4781) offices. In addition, you can always reach us through our online portal system. The portal system is HIPAA compliant to communicate with our providers for general questions. During the night, Dr. Scott can be reached through the same number. The office number is routed to an after-hour answering service. Dr. Scott typically responds within 20 minutes. If he has not returned your call, please call again as he is sometimes in deliveries or emergencies.

How soon should I expect a response for general inquiries?

All questions should be answered within 24-48 hours. This includes all phone calls and portal messages.

Do you specialize in high risk pregnancies?

Yes, we are happy to take care of high risk patients.  High risk patients are typically managed in coordination with a perinatal specialist.  However, when appropriate, some patients are managed completely by the perinatal specialist. The decision to completely transfer care versus coordinate care is typically made at the initial prenatal visit.
