I would say I don't know per se if it's the office, but I was there for a annual check up and to not be able to talk about going through menopause I was told I would have to make another separate appointment for my insurance to be ran again if I wanted to talk anything about menopause and I think that's right if I'm there for women's check up, I should be able to talk about my body and what's going Just didn't like that

I have had a great experience with you guys so far. I had my first daughter with y'all and now I'm on my second. And each time it's been very nice. All the doctors and nurses are very knowledgeable, very helpful, no complaints at all. If I did have to list a complaint though, I will say that y'all's exam rooms get really hot. But that could just be because I'm really pregnant too. But besides that, everything's great.

I was highly disappointed with Valerie Tchinang today. I was speaking with the midwife in training regarding my postpartum depression survey and she was stating that I scored a 9 and I may be dealing with depression and Valerie entered the room and the first thing she said was, "you look tired". It was my first appointment with her, she never introduced herself. For her to greet me with a negative comment after reviewing my survey I thought it was very inconsiderate. Also, we were discussing my maternity leave ending soon and she asked, could I extend it. Before I could answer her question, she said, you need the money so you have to go back to work? I thought that was rude of her to say. She had no compassion and her comment were extremely unnecessary.

The attention I have had from each of the doctors and nurses, exactly everyone here, has definitely been extraordinary. They are a family to me because they gave me so much confidence and faith in the entire process of my pregnancy and I feel so happy. for having managed to have my daughter in my arms. Thank you for all your support and your attention is definitely wonderful. 100% recommendable. My husband, my children and I are so happy to have our daughter at home, enjoying her is so beautiful. Everyone is so wonderful. Thank you for all your attention and cordiality.

Dr. Valerie was very, she's very not she would she didn't have any compassion. She seemed like she was just at work to be at work. I did not like the fact that I felt attention and the drama with in the office with all the women. Two of the women on the front were discussing personal issues in front of me, which I thought was inappropriate and the energy and the doctor's office felt uneasy and unwelcome and as if they didn't care about what they were doing they were just there to do the job. However, the lab tech was the only person I was personable friendly and compassionate.

I think that the amount of time that I had to wait was ridiculous. My appointment time was 11:00am, there is no reason why I had to wait 45 minutes before being called to the back. This practice has no respect for people's time. Appointments are set for a reason, if the doctor is not able to see the patient within the first 15 minutes of their appointment time, then that needs to be communicated. I am very disappointed with this practice.

Okay, so first of all, the appointment was pretty good, but I needed a little bit more information as far as the pain that I'm feeling, that's up under my lower breast. She just said, I would be sore and because I'm diabetic, I have a lot of fluid build up, but it didn't really explain everything to me in detail, because I'm a little concerned about the pain, so that would be all. Thank you.

It was my first appointment with her, she never introduced herself. For her to greet me with a negative comment after reviewing my survey I thought it was very inconsiderate. Also, we were discussing my maternity leave ending soon and she asked, could I extend it. Before I could answer her question, she said, you need the money so you have to go back to work? I thought that was rude of her to say. She had no compassion and her comment were extremely unnecessary.
