I am writing this review to provide feedback to Dr. Jeffrey Bray, in the hopes that he is more thorough and comprehensive in his patient care.

A colleague of mine, a 40 year old healthy individual, went to Dr. Jeffrey Bray with classic late stage ovarian cancer symptoms. She was in extreme pain and described changes in bowel habits, had visible and extensive distension in her abdomen. She also described issues with indigestion and fatigue.

Instead of probing her with additional questions and taking time to evaluate her, he told her that it was likely an ovarian cyst and to 'come back 'in a month or so'. Several days later, she ended up in the ER as the pain had gotten much worse. A week after that visit, she went back to the ER. This time, the attending physician ordered blood work and a CT scan and diagnosed her with late stage (stage 3) Ovarian Cancer.

She is now getting proper care, but if she had not been persistent in seeking a reason for her discomfort, the disease would've progressed without any chance of saving her life.

Dr. Bray, when confronted with a young woman who is describing typical symptoms of ovarian cancer, act quickly and responsibly. It would have taken you just a few minutes to get a CT scan and a blood test ordered. And then, perhaps, 30 minutes to review the information and act swiftly. As an OB/GYN, you should have the requisite knowledge of, and be familiar with symptoms for, ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer should've been the first possible thing to check for when you had my friend and colleague in your office.

Dr. Bray was great! I saw him before I got pregnant for other issues, and he provided me with info, not even specialists I had seen had given me. He was very knowledgable in the area I needed him to me. He was thourough, and carefully explained all my options to me. He was great as my OB as well, made me aware of all possible outcomes, and made sure I always knew what to expect throughout my whole pregnancy,unfortunately he was unable to deliver my baby, but he did come by the next morning to check on us. I would definately recommend Dr. Bray to anyone for any women's health issues.

Dr. Bray was nice and made me feel very comfortable when my pregnancy was normal. Although sometimes I felt like he was just blowing sunshine. If it was Dr. Bray by himself, I would still go to this clinic. But, the other doctors in his office were not helpful once my pregnancy had complications and I have suffered greatly since because of their lack of care.

Dr. Bray is jovial enough, but I never felt like he was actually listening. He was always rushed, and through my whole pregnancy never told me that the shape of my pelvis may complicate the birth. He waited until I had been pushing for 3 hours, saying only that he hadnt wanted to discourage me. That was not his choice to make. He knew at my first appointment. Had he told me, I would have had time to research, and I feel could have avoided a C-section. After my C-section he perscribed a painkiller that I did not know I was allergic to, 5 weeks of phone calls about crippling pain,(that he kept saying was normal.) I finally had to camp out in his office, for him to send a nurse with a new script. He didnt apologise, or see me face to face. It took 6 months for my stomach to heal.
