Dr. Mukul is one of the most compassionate and caring doctors I know. He performed my hysterectomy in 2016, and has been my gyn ever since. I was especially impressed with how he listened to me and even contacted another physician when I expressed concerns about the surgery. I never feel rushed or ignored. I have seen one bad review posted on several sites that is so counter to my experience, I felt compelled to give my perspective.

Great doctor. I've been going to Dr Mukul for a decade. He always listened to my concerns and referred me for tests or imaging or to GI doctor when needed.

Dr. Liberato V. Mukul at Women's Healthcare Associates caused me serious harm. I filed a formal complaint against him for negligence as a practitioner but it seems he is still allowed to practice medicine and hurt women with his negligence.

I have endometriosis. I also have estrogen-sensitive migraine with aura. Dr. Mukul forced me onto estrogen birth control and refused to renew my progesterone birth control even though I begged and pleaded with him not to do this to me. He ordered me to take estrogen even after I begged him and told him it was unsafe for me. I had no choice in taking it as my insurance would not let me go elsewhere.

If you do not know, estrogen literally feeds endometriosis and allows it to grow. I spent three weeks taking this new BC and then lying on my bathroom floor unable to go to work, screaming and sobbing from the pain of the organ scarring from internal bleeding. I destroyed my emergency funds because I could not work.

When I dragged myself into the office after three weeks, barely able to walk and sobbing in pain, Dr. Mukul was utterly cold and dismissive. He told me he "did not know much about endometriosis" and was "mostly an OB." Dr. Mukul treated me like a liar and like I was wasting his time.

He finally gave me a prescription for a massively high dose of progesterone and shooed me out, clearly annoyed with me. He simply did not care about the horrific amount of damage he caused my body with his negligence. He had better things to do while I bled internally from his negligence and scarred my organs.

This doctor is unsafe and should not be practicing medicine. Please stay far away from him. It's been two years and I am only now healed from what he did to me.

I complained to WHA as well as formally reporting Dr.Mukul but WHA simply did not care. They had already gotten my insurance money after all.

Dr. Mukul is one of the best doctors I have ever been to. I was seeing a colleague of his, in the same office and was seen once by him for a 7cm cyst on my left fallopian tube. He was thorough in all exams and information. He recommended changing my birth control and laproscopic surgery. It was fast, I had a very quick recovery and honestly, very little pain afterwards. The birth control he suggested I change to was easily the best decision I have ever made. He remembers ALL patients by name and is very personable and sweet. He always has a smile on and he was always caring of my worries and never told me I was wrong for being worried about anything. I would recommend this OBGYN to any woman that is searching.
