Dr McRae was amazing from the start to the end of my pregnancy. I could not have asked for a more motivational, knowledgeable, experienced and friendly doctor. She picked up early that I want a high chance of pre-eclampsia and made sure my boy and I were ok throughout the whole pregnancy. I will definitely be calling her again when I have my second child.
