Dr. Samuel delivered my beautiful daughter into this world in 1991 at Herrick Hospital in Tecumseh MIchigan. Dr. Samuel was kind, compassionate, and professional. I was hospitalized during my first trimester and Dr. Samuel was with my family every step of the way. Dr. Samuel was heading out of town when I went Into labor three weeks early. He cancelled his trip and returned in the early morning hours to be there for me. I have never forgotten this doctor's kindness to me , my family still talks about him to this day. I know what happened in a small, white town when they drove a good man out. This man was well respected by his patients, and his practice had such a wonderful reputation that moms were lining up to become one of his patients. Dr. Samuel was the beloved Chief of Staff at the hospital, but he could not fight politics and prejudice. Doctors are not God. Tragic events happen. We live in a litigious society. I believe with all my heart that Dr. Samuel cherishes life, loves babies, and offered the best care humanly possible. God bless you, Dr. Samuel. You'll be happy to know that my girl is just as beautiful as the day she was born 25 years ago, happily married and hoping to have her own child soon.

Dr. Samuel was my OBGYN for my 1st pregnancy. Everything went well so I figured I'd choose him again for my 2nd pregnancy. At 36 weeks, I had moved 92 miles away and couldn't find a OBGYN that could fit me in for an appointment at a decent time so I chose to go back to Dr. Samuel. My appointment was at 2:30. I was called into a room at 4:30 and Dr. Samuel entered the room at 5:00. After being monitored for 10 minutes the aide handed me a cover up & instructed me to get undressed. She stood in the corner and Dr. Samuel sat at the desk on his laptop. So, I sat on the bed fully dressed, on my phone, waiting for them to exit the room while I derobed. After about 5 minutes Dr. Samuel asked, "Are we ready yet?" and the aid replies "Not yet, she's still dressed." So, yes I derobed while Dr. samuel & his aid were in the room with me. During my examination, the aid pulled out the measure and sat it on my belly. Instead of Dr. Samuel pulling his fingers out of me he left them inside while he measured my bump then he took them out after he got a measurement. There was no reason for him to keep his fingers inside of me while he measured me. I will NEVER go back to this doctor & I most definitely will not recommend ANYONE to go to him. I did not leave out the office until after 6 pm. And there were still 2 other patients waiting to be seen.
