DO NOT USE THIS DOCTOR! She refused to discuss my issues and rushed through my exam. I have had a period every other week, but instead of discussing that and/or possible treatments, she just put me on the pill which hasn't helped at all. Then, without consulting me, she added an HPV test to my Pap Smear, and now I have to pay over a hundred dollars for it! I have been in a monogamous relationship for over 13 years so that test was inappropriate and medically unnecessary! If she is so desparate to make money, why did she absolutely refuse to discuss a partial hysterectomy to end my suffering? I'm 37 and have all the babies I need and my husband had a vasectomy 9 years ago. Her exam was also rough and she made a derogatory comment about the fact that I trim my hair down there--hello! Its 2009 and I wear a bikini!

I would NEVER recommend this doctor. I had my first baby, and she wanted to induce me in the 38th week for it is the "practice's policy". I resisted the decision and she actually yelled at me and my husband. I ended up being induced right on my due date that too she scared me by telling me that I wil be responsible for any mishap. I didnt have a choice to change my doctor at that time. Also she never read my medical records ( I moved from another city mid pregnancy) and missed the fact that I had a cyst and was HPV positive and I delivered vaginally(It should have been a c-section). And the worst, she knows a common friend of mine ans she shared my medical information with her without my consent which is a violation of doctor patient confidientiality. So think twice before you go to her.

I delivered with her in Dec. 2008. The only thing i didnt appreciate is that my visits were rushed. I didnt feel comfortable asking questions to her. The nurse was great though. I could ask her anything. My nursed told me I would be induced not the doctor herself. =/ The postpartum check up was alot better. Im going for my yearly soon and i hope it gets better. She tough but I feel its for a good reason.

I love this doctor. She helped me tremendously during my pregnancy that had major complications....She also even saw me after the pregnancy without insurance for the on going problems that I was having. She's great!

I changed from this doctor at 37 wks pregnant because my issues with her had become that serious. I did not want the stress of dealing with her to interfere with my healthy pregnancy. My main problem was the "cookie-cutter" approach to my birth process. For example, the office has a policy of inducing labor at 38/39 weeks for the doctor's convenience. Of course, if your baby and your body's not ready, a c-section will likely occur. My baby came on her own at 39 wks 6 days and I delivered vaginally. Furthermore, during the internal check at 34 wks, I bled severely all over the table and was not even so much as offered a sanitary napkin. She was entirely too rough and it made me even more afraid of labor/delivery. I do not recommend this practice, especially this ob/gyn doctor, to anyone. I just thank God that I was able to go to another practice so late in the pregnancy and deliver a healthy baby.

DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR! My mother, my friend and I all went to her and she tried to fing anything to run tests about just to get money. She even lied to my friend and told her she had something she didnt to run more tests for more insurance money! Please stay away from this doctor she is trouble! The entire office is unprofessional. After you get there for your appointment also you have to wait an hour later for the women to lie to you about something so she can run more tests. She is a sad excuse for a doctor, and I wouldnt recommend her to my dog!
