:( Click to report rating    1/30/08 1 2 2 2  Dr. Turner has now changed location twice without notifying his patients. This 2nd time, he has moved out of state and there is no way to reach him, as he uses an "answering service" which is not in possession of any information whatsoever - they will only take your number and claim to know nothing about Dr. Turner's new office location. I want to get my records, but no one seems to know where they are. Where are my records with my personal information? What if I was about to give birth or had a raging infection? How do his patients reach him in an emergency? Dr. Turner's behavior is a discredit to his profession. And the Staff working at their DC location was an embarassment - disorganized, airheaded and clueless. It always took three or four calls to actually schedule an appointment as they would have recordings on (during office hours) saying "Call back during office hours." or the assistant didn't have the book to schedule appointments with her. Unreal.

:( Click to report rating    9/15/07 2 2 1 3  office requires license suspension. IF you ever need termination or pregnancy or any other OBGYN service read my writing very carefully.First of all. THis doctor has no idea of what sterile field is in exam area. IT appears to me that to save few bucks , HE does not give out any gowns to female patients. His nurse told pt to have paper cover to wrap around the bottom and and used this to wipe after the bloody bottom in Pregnancy termination. ARE YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME right? NO wash after. he doesnt wear mask. He does not explain the procedures to patients all he says is " ARE YOU READY? LETS GO" he does not wear sterile gowns to perform pregnancy terminations. He talks to nurse regarding their family issues while working without mask!! and laughs, and talks ( I have never seen this ignoarant and rude and no ****ing idea where these type of doctors are trained. STERILE and CLEANESS IS PRIORITY NO ONE. NEVER EVER GO TO HIM HE WORKS AT ANNANDALE WOMENS CENTER, ALEXANDRIA.RATE D+

:( Click to report rating    2/20/07 1 1 2  What an awful and unclean environment. I should have left as soon as I go there. He is a short tempered man that did not listen to me. It is hard enough to go and see a new dr but to feel so unwelcomed does not help. His tools are outdated and the chair feel apart when i sat in it. The equipment is old and rusty and if I am right, HE DID NOT USE GLOVES!!!!! I hate that I stayed so much longer than I needed to but this dr is a sham and disgrace. He is an all out jerk that has a very un sanitary enviroment and I recommend not going to him EVER!!!
