Please don't go to this Doctor, I'm begging people. As other have pointed out shes quick to dismiss patients when she doesn't feel the issue is a big deal. To this point, my wife and I have been having fertility issues since the birth of our son about 8 years ago. Nothing changed health wise between the 2 of us, it really didn't make any sense. Both of us even became health nuts and we were the most fit we had ever been previously. During this time several blood tests were performed on my wife, at no point did Davyduke ever say anything was abnormal on those tests, quite the opposite in fact. Eventually we referred for IVF. Right before our first treatment, the fertility Dr informed us that my wifes platelets have been abnormally high since 2014! When my wife brought this up with Davyduke she dismissed it outright Its a non issue she declared. the IVF treatment was a complete failure, not one egg survived due to low quality of the eggs she was producing. $15k later, my wife had to fight several times with Davyduke to get to the bottom of her abnormal blood tests, as she didn't want to address it at all. To us, it seemed reasonable before dropping another 15k, we should eliminate any other health issues first. We wanted to set ourselves up for success. Davyduke did not seem to grasp this. She even told my wife that referrals will take a long time because "she has other patients with actual issues".

Long story short, when an actual doctor looked at her blood work, he immediately ordered a scan for inflammation (duh!). Her appendix was wildly inflamed and her case was described as "extreme". She has chronic appendicitis, probably since our son was born. Its so bad her appendix is deformed and misshapen. Appendicitis shows up in blood work as high platelets. Not only this, but it affects fertility in women and can reduce the quality of her eggs. During this time, my wife complained of lower back pain several times to Davyduke, which she did nothing about. We know understand these were more symptoms of her appendicitis. We were told that if my wife simply had her appendix removed, we would most likely get pregnant.

All Davyduke had to do is refer my wife to a specialist in 2014, have her appendix removed and we could continue building our family. Instead, we watched our dream of a large family die slowly before our eyes, all the while we watched our son grow up without any siblings. I watched my wife break down after every cycle she didn't get pregnant for over a year. I blamed myself even after sperm tests showed I was fine, nothing made sense to us. We delayed education, postponed life goals, and basically put everything on hold to try and have a second baby. The emotional and mental toll of infertility on a family cannot be over stated. We talked before we were married about having a home filled with kids, that was our goal in life. My son is getting older, and the silence in this house from the lack of kids feels like its killing me sometimes. To now know that literally all that was required was a simple referral, or even just some basic interest in her patient would have saved us all this pain is beyond upsetting.

Davyduke actually passed onto us from the specialist that appendicitis causes infertility in women. When she did, she cheerfully said to my wife "Lets get your healthy so you can have some babies!!!" My wife broke down as soon as she hung up, how could she say that after ignoring her pleas to look into her abnormal blood tests, and belittling her concern? What sort of person would feel no remorse for missing this?

She stole time from us. Life's to short, get a good Doctor.

Dr. Davyduke kept me waiting and misdiagnosed me more than once. Her head is not in the game. Will never go back.

she is not my doctor but when I was about to deliver my baby my doctor is not available so she step in since they are all part of the maternity group. She is very kind to me, attentive to what I need and how I feel. When I was put on force labor she was there all the way until I had to be operated in the end. She is very nice doctor

Worst doctor ever! I wish her license would be revoked! Has never helped me. Keeps sending me for tests and the same results are coming back she she keeps saying "come back in a week" it's been the same for 4 years... when will she take action?! On top of that I asked for my IUD be removed and she refused "I don't want an unplanned pregnancy"<- not her decision, I want it out. On top of all that she keeps pushing medication for pain and mental health and I want real help. She is always at least 30/40 minutes late to see me. I can't believe the poor service.

Dr. Davyduke delivered my second baby. I was a little nervous after reading some of the bad reviews, but she was wonderful! She addressed and respected my concerns. I had some negative and painful experiences with the birth of my first child (with a midwife) and Dr. Davyduke was very gentle. She acknowledged my concerns and was willing to work with me. Follow up after the birth was great too.

Wonderful doctor! My regular doctor was full and needed to be seen soon, the staff were able to fit me in with Dr. Davyduke. She was kind and listened to me. She took her time and was thorough. Would highly recommend her! Also, her staff were friendly and helpful

Worst doctor I’ve ever seen in my 32 years of life, she was so rude on both occasions I unfortunately had to see her because my regular dr at the office was full, Now if I call & the reception (who are lovely) say the only spaces are available with davyduke I say NO THANKS I’d rather wait 1 year than to see her ever again. You should be warm & welcoming to your patients, not blunt, rude & careless. I would not reccomend this dr to anyone, I asked her about my ultrasound on one of the two encoutners and she said the report said it was hard to read because of my belly FAT!! How rude are you?? Who are you to say this to a patient, the only fat part of me is my tummy from multiple pregnancies & even if I was a obese woman who weighed 250+ pounds that kind of lack of human decency is awful. Disgusting doctor.

I I have been a patient of Dr. Daveyduke since she arrived in the valley. I was appalled to read some of the comments about her on this websight. I agree that one has to often wait beyond the appointed time. My experience, on her arrival is, that she is unhurried, professional, and thorough. She is willing to spend the extra time, at her expense, to get to the cause of my problem.

I am actually a little shocked with some of the comments I have read about Dr. Davyduke. Everyone is of course entitled to their own experiences and I don't belittle them in anyway, especially someone losing a child. My heart breaks for them, however, I find that Dr. Davyduke is very attentive, she has spend more than the allotted time with myself and my daughter on numerous occasions. When she was unsure of anything, she doesn't pretend she knows the answers, she takes the time to look things up and she talks about what we need. I do feel that most doctors in general do the best they can with the time they have, but I have never been made to feel unaccepted at the Highland practice in general. We have seen a couple of other doctors there on short-notice appointments and all have been more than acceptable. The staff isn't rude in anyway, I think they are super busy and don't have much time for chatty counter talk, but they are definitely not unpleasant.
