THIS WAS THE WORST DOCTORS OFFICE EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD. Going to the girly doctor is always a little uncomfortable however I take my vaginal health seriously, I am willing to spend the money even though I am currently uninsured. I just got home and I am still shaking with anger. I called the office to make an appointment, I chose this place because the doctors were all women, it seemed like a clinic geared to women, sensitive and caring. The receptionist asked why I was making the appointment - I am a little reluctant to divulge my issues down there over the phone to a receptionist but I did anyway as I was keen to get an appointment. When I walked in I filled out all the papers, people at front desk werent exactly warm, but hey, I didnt expect it. However, when I handed my forms over to the receptionist she looked at me and said "oh you were the one that called earlier with the "........ ......." symptoms " (.....signifies my slightly embarrassing problem) SHE SAID THIS OUT LOUD, WITHOUT DISCRETION, IN A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE, MEN AND WOMEN). Besides being completely inconsiderate, she wrinkled her nose and looked at me with such judgement and disdain. Even after I told her politely that I would rather discuss my symptoms in private with a nurse or doctor she looked at me like I was stupid. There were a few other people behind the counter snickering and listening in. I have never felt so humiliated. There were a bunch of people in line behind me, and to the right of me. And that point I should have just walked out, but I was anxious to see the doctor so I handed over my credit card - SHE TOOK ONE LOOK AT MY CREDIT CARD, DIDNT EVEN RUN IT IN THE MACHINE (I HAVE A VISA BANK OF AMERICA) AND TOLD ME SORRY WE DONT ACCEPT THIS CARD. I handed her another one, another visa card and again, without even running the card she said this wont work - I need to ask my supervisor. More snickering and disdain. I am a well dressed person, I take care of my appearance, I realize people are judged on appearance so I have no idea why she would treat me this way - again, she has no right to treat anyone the way she treated me, even if I was dressed in rags. DR. SHOBHANA GANDHI : I am sorry I never got to meet you, but I will never set foot in your practice again. I have never felt so compelled to write a yelp review. And to the lady at the front desk: treat your fellow women with a little more compassion, be a little kinder, a little less judgmental.

I never been to a clinic with such a bad customer service. The first time I was there I was 8 weeks, after that I had issues with my insurance coverage and they could not see me, I get that, but they did not help me at all to solve anything they say that I have to call my insurance and fix the problem. For experience I know that they can grab the phone and call the insurance and help me before I leave the office. So I came home, call the insurance and ask them why they chance my doctor, they explained why and they where going to put me back with Gandhi but they ask me to wait on the line because they needed to contact my doctor office (what?!!!!) I was just there, the employees know how this works and they did not make the call from the office, I just ask for the new information on my insurance and hang up. Im 29 weeks pregnant and the doctor only has seen me twice. They are not helpful, in this 29 weeks I never had the glucose test, and other test, they are not sync with each other, they dont look like someone that enjoys their job. Please just DONT go here, specially if you have a history of pre-existing condition such early labor, etc. Save yourself some time and go next door hes a male OB. He delivered 3 of my babies, this is going to be the 4th baby and they havent change. And if you are looking for a female OB just go to another place.

In reading the last review, I felt compelled to write one myself. Ive been here a few times, and am almost 4 months pregnant. The receptionists: pretty much the same 2 women each time Ive been. Theyre not inconsiderate as the last review had stated. They have always been kind, and its probably because I show them the same respect they show me. Granted, they did screw up my appt. once, but thats because my due date changed and they couldnt do blood work yet. But theyre understanding with payments, and quick to give you an appt. that works for you. The doctors Ive seen: Dr. Gandhi is quick, but thorough. Knowledgeable but busy. Wish she had a little more time to talk to me and not rush me out. Dr. Aflack: shes AMAZING. Ive only seen her once, and it was because I had a walk in, and she was the one available, but shes so warm, caring, smart and actually talked to me for about 5 mins. before even asking me to get up on the table. Asked me how I felt, how the dad is feeling, if I was scared, and even shared stories about her own pregnancy. She took her time with my ultrasound, and gave me some great pics to show daddy. So, 5 stars for Dr. Aflack. Im sure theres better offices out there, but hey, beggars cant be choosey, and Im satisfied so far with this Drs office.

I have a PPO and they overcharged us on Copay and other services. Luckily I involved my insurance and my insurance is going to reimburse excess amount charged by them. Insurance companies advice was to not visit them in the future.

She was very gentle and kind. Very easy to talk to for a Dr. and someone I did not know. I felt at ease with her while discussing a very sensitive topic for me.
