I HAD 2 MISCARRIAGES WHILE A PATIENT OF DR. JENKINS. BOTH TIMES I FELT HE LACKED SENSITIVITY TO WHAT I WAS GOING THROUGH. The last miscarriage was the worst. I was 10 weeks pregnant and came in for an ultrasound after 2 weeks of enduring confusion by his sonographer who thought she saw a heartbeat, then she didnt and then she did. This last visit was on a Friday and it was to confirm the last sonographer was right and there was a hearbeat. Dr Jenkins said it was to give me peace of mind. After the ultrasound the nurse came in and said I was possibly headed towards a miscarriage because they didnt see a baby/heartbeat. I was in shock. The Friday before Dr. Jenkins told me I could be excited because the sonographer "thought" she saw a baby. He never walked in during the ultrasound to confirm. I felt he should have since he himself thought this could be a blighted ovum but he didnt and I took him for his word. With this news, my head was spinning! The nurse told me she would text Dr. Jenkins to let him know the situation. He wasnt seeing patients that particular Friday. She reassured me he would call me asap as she knew I was concerned and scared. I wasnt bleeding or cramping so I wasnt sure what the next step was. I never got a call that Friday. Nor did he call Saturday or Sunday. It wasnt until 7pm on Monday that I received a call from Dr. Jenkins. I was so upset, I didnt answer nor did I listen to his message. Too little too late, in my opinion. I felt very much abandoned. By that time I had already found another doctor who confirmed, by an ultrasound he did himself, this was a blighted ovum. I also started bleeding that Monday right before my appointment with the new doctor. Although it was horrible I was happy to finally get some answers and from a doctor who seemed to understand the heartache of a miscarriage. The first miscarriage was 2 months before. I was only 3 weeks pregnant when I started bleeding heavily. This was my first pregnancy and I was devasted. I called Dr. Jenkins office and spoke to the nurse or CMA. It wasnt April. She took the message and said Dr. Jenkins would call me back. According to her, she needed to get my results from the blood work I had the day before to check my levels and show them to Dr. Jenkins along with passing on the news of my bleeding. After an hour or so she called back. She said Dr. Jenkins wanted me to go to the ER. I did and as soon as I got there they called Dr. Jenkins office and got my results. At this point my levels dropped to 9. With that they told me I was having a miscarriage. Of course they still took blood and did an ultrasound to confirm. They sent me home and said the miscarriage was naturally happening so there was nothing else to do. All of that could have been done by Dr. Jenkins. It was a Tuesday. He could have easily had me come in and saved me from a $5000 ER bill. Hell, a phone call from him since he had my results that showed I was miscarrying would have done. I got nothing! If I was 10 years younger and not having issues getting and staying pregnant, I would probably keep him as my doctor. Hes a nice guy. I really did like his personality. I just need more involvement from my doctor, especially when going through something as terrible as a miscarriage.

Staff is the worst. I went in as a new patient and knew i was going to be late ( I had no idea where the office was, they didnt inform me.. no biggie, i can do the searching on my own.) After calling and informing the staff, they were appreciative and told me to come in. Mind you i have two kiddos and am a stay at home, so getting a babysitter and all the extra jazz is a workout for the day... Anyways, i get to the doc and as soon as i walk in and talk to the "receptionist" she tells me that i need to reschedule, I looked shocked and told her that i called in and she proceeded to smurk and blow me off. She said she would "speak to the nurse and ask"and informed that the the doc was not in yet and I might have a chance.. after waiting about 10 mins ( i dont think she even left her seat) called me up and told me i needed to reschedule.... DOC IS NOT EVEN IN YET!!! I called in, what is the deal!?!?!?!? .. I said no thanks, not really interested in being a patience here, her attitude was huge after that! I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE!!!!!! DO NOT GO HERE!!! if the staff is that bad, it is only a reflection of the DR.

HORRIBLE nursing staff, except April (head nurse). Extremely disrespectful and unprofessional. Avoid this doctor and his staff like the plague. Terrell is very pompous and only wants to deliver children AROUND his personal schedule, as opposed to being there when things naturally occur. I dont doubt his professional knowledge or ability as an ob/gyn but he and his staff (mainly his staff) need MAJOR attitude adjustments. From observing his waiting room, I would venture to say that the attitude comes from dealing w/ the demographics of the majority of his clientele--low-income, ghetto, baby daddy types; so his staff automatically look down upon EVERYONE that comes into the office and puts them into that category.

I was referred to this office by a friend. Shed already warned me that Dr. Jenkins is ALWAYS late! Worst experience ever. I called to let Jessica know that I was running late. She was okay with that because Dr. Jenkins was in surgery. Jessica then called as I was in the elevator on my way up to let me know that I would have to see another doctor. I was fine with this because this was my first visit and I wanted to get a feel for the office. After signing in, they took my insurance info and allowed me to wait for 20 mins before telling me that I was too late and they would have to reschedule me. This office is horrible and unprofessional. Dont waste your time ladies, find another doctor.

Dr. Jenkins and his staff are wonderful. My son is a healthy 2 year old because Dr. Jenkins did everything possible so I wouldnt have my son early. He did everything in his power to keep me admitted in the hospital because I went in for preterm labor at 26 weeks. Even though at that time I was a little upset with him for wanting to keep me at the hospital I knew that he was doing it to save my baby and because he CARED. I delivered a healthy baby boy at 35 weeks and was able to take him home with me when I was discharged. While I was admitted in the hospital for a whole month , he would visit me everyday. Dr. Jenkins is truly a good Doctor that goes above and beyond.

He is nice, patient, listen to the concerns I have, he is a positive person, really easy going and seems to know really well what he is doing. In addition to that and as a response of the reviews below, I think the rest of the personal is nice enough, the waiting is tolerable and the offices/area is very nice (and new). Im an engineer, I’m not from the ghetto, Im not a ‘baby daddy type’ and I’m not low income. I do not know what the below reviewer is talking about. I’m serious about these reviews because I depend on them to get a good doctor (or anything really) and Dr. Jenkins is the best I had.
