Dr. Amerson saved my life. I was 43 years of age and pregnant. She ensured that I received the best healthcare ever. Dr. Amerson, where ever you are, I hope and pray you and your family are well. We miss you in the SACK.

First of Dr. Amerson is a great doctor. She is professional & humanity. Has great manners . She has not disappeared. She moved & got married . Second Hackensack Hospital tricked her on believing that they would pay her insurance ONLY to steal her patients. And said she was busy when she wasn’t. The staff was unprofessional. I thank Dr. Amerson for saving my life with my health. God bless her

Dr. Amerson is an AMAZING doctor. My experience from the beginning of my pregnancy to my delivery was everything I was looking for - I felt safe and all of my questions were answered. Two weeks before I delivered, a friend of mine (and another patient of Dr. Amerson's) went into labor. Her son was in distress. Everything turned out better than fine. She called me and told me how Dr. Amerson was a rock and that I shouldn't worry about a thing. Thankfully, my delivery went as planned. I will always be thankful to Dr. Amerson for helping bring an extraordinary being into the world. My only peeve was the waiting time. But, I quickly managed that. And, her staff was always friendly and professional.

AVOID AVOID AVOID! I trusted Dr. Amerson and for years she was my doctor. I kept going to her despite constantly having to wait up to 2 hours for an appointment and despite her staff's incompetence because I got the impression she was a good and caring doctor. All of the sudden, she disappeared off the face of the earth! The doctor lost her privileges at Hackensack Hospital! This is not a good sign and left me and a lot of other patients I am sure scrambling to find another doctor. My new doctor questioned her treatments and called a procedure she did on me archaic. My new doctor has been requesting my files and I have been trying to get them for 5 months. Seriously don't be fooled by her seemingly nice persona, she is a bad doctor! I had a bad pap smear with her that she never told me told me about! It should have been treated right away but was left to get worse.

If this doctor ever has a practice again PLS run the other way. Keeps u waiting for over 2 hrs, is not apologetic about it, and passes you on to other doctors in the practice like if you were never her patient. I had the worse experience for being a first time mom with her. I was full of anxiety and unanswered questions. Thank goodness for the staff at Hackensack hospital and Dr Giron who stepped up bc Dr Amerson so called reassurance fell on deaf ears!!! I would never want anyone to go through this so pls reconsider and see another doc.

DR. AMERSON IS THE BEST OB/GYN ! Her staff is another story. Customer service could be better but I would recommend this doctor to EVERYONE!

I have to say that this office is one of the worse medical offices I have ever been to. Not only did the incompetent staff lose my medical record, which took them 25 min. to find, I never received a follow up call regarding my test results. I took my business elsewhere. The staff seem like they really do not care. I am not sure how Dr. Amerson could allow this behavior to continue. Avoid her OFFICE at all cost!!!

worst staff. Waited weeks to get an appoitnemt and then everytime I did get an appointment, their staff would unapologetically call and cancel the appointment without giving a reason. Happened with me twice and both the times they were not sorry! I expressed disappointment and still the guy had no professionalism to apologise. Never had a chance to meet the doctor but I don't think I am ever going to visit her. All the best to her with her busy schedule and the rude staff!

I am very dissapointed in my experience as she came highly recommended. I was forewarned that she keeps clients waiting for hours but I decided to still give her a try. Now I am feeling like I made a huge mistake and wasted a great deal of needed time. It took me 2 weeks to make an appt because they never answered the phones. I left several msgs and Noone Ever followed through so I had to keep calling myself. Then my appt was cancelled on the day of-telling me that she had 4 deliveries. This happened TWICE. I was pleased once I met with her because she was patient and seemed very knowledgeable. However, the second strike was that she never followed up with calling me about my bloodwork as promised. This time she was out sick for a week. I am very big on Follow Through. My husband's neurosurgeon works in 3 hospitals, teaches at a university and performs surgeries all week and STILL finds time to call following an appointment. I think she's overwhelmed with patients and needs a new staff
