They schedule too many patients at once. Expect to wait 20 - 30 minutes in the waiting room. She's very thorough but at the same time rushes through the appointment. Doesn't ask if you have any questions and runs out of the room. I usually have to have her the questions I had while making my next appointment. I will never go back to them after I have my baby. Go to OB/GYN of Fairfield County if you want a better experience.

Dr. Sivkin has gone above and beyond to help me, especially recently. The only downside is she refered me to a very, very poor surgeons office.

Dr. Sivkin delivered my first. She has seen me through good, bad and indifferent! She gives you the facts and sugarcoates nothing. She is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. Highly recommended for those that can take the truth - she's blunt and I happen to like knowing what the facts are without beating around the bush.

She can be very talkative (so much so that I've sometimes have a hard time getting a word in LOL) and sometimes confusing, but I have found her to be very helpful and caring. You do tend feel rushed by her unfortunately, but I would definately refer her to anyone.

Dr. Sivkin is great - she is a bit rushed at times, it feels like, but very kind and there to listen if you are having problems - do not feel shy in front of her at all.
