Looking for a supportive OB/GYN in Chicago

Can anyone in Chicago recommend a good OB/GYN who is open to the idea of home birth or midwife-assisted birth in a birth center? I'm not pregnant yet, but I want to make sure I have a solid support system before I am expecting a baby. The doctor I've been seeing has been great as a gynecologist, but she made some unsolicited remarks about my ability to have a vaginal birth awhile back that led me to believe she isn't the ideal person to attend a birth for me (or to prepare me for that experience).

Any suggestions about specific doctors or resources that could help me find one would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm not familiar with Chicago, but I posted a link to your question on my Mamas and Babies facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mamas-and-Babies/119679234738589?ref=sgm
