In addition to what the last reviewer said I have these thoughts to add: How much time do you have to read my thoughts? Allow me to first summarize them in a few words - STAY AWAY!!! Now allow me to list my issues with her practice: 1) I suffer from migraines with auras and should not be on birth control with hormones- after having seen a string of neurologists I was told that my birth control contributed to the frequency of my migraines and put me in a high stroke bracket. They asked why my gynecologist knowingly had me on this. I called her office and was told I had to make an appointment to raise the issue with her. When I went in they STILL got it wrong. Second, I scheduled an IUD appointment after figuring out for myself which birth control to be on. I was told to take misoprostol before the appointment. I just happened to google the medicine the day before my appointment and learned that nobody is prescribing that anymore and that it is actually detrimental to your health. That was the last straw, and I will never be going back to that office EVER again. 2) The rudeness of the staff will blow you away, the nurses are simply horrid to talk to on the phone and treat you like dirt when you are in the office. If you ever happen to need a question answered via phone they tell you that they cant answer it. When you ask to speak to the doctor they tell you that Dr. Grapin never talks to patients. 3) The office itself is constantly under some sort of construction. Last time I was in I had to sit in an overcrowded office used for storage while painters working on the exterior stared in at me during a gynecological consultation.

I Googled Dr. Grapin to get her phone number and came across these reviews. I couldnt believe she had any negative reviews so I felt compelled to add my review related to my experiences. I have been a patient of Dr. Grapins for more years than I can remember - long before she started out on her own practice. I could have remained with her former large, established practice and become a patient of one of her former colleagues. I didnt because I had every confidence in her. I too, suffered migraines while on birth control pills back in the day but was unwilling to give them up. Dr. Grapin worked with me on changing formulas and other strategies to help alleviate this particular, potential migraine trigger connection. I have a few other gynecological issues that she has treated me for and guided me in some decisions I had to make related to management and treatment. Shell be the first to admit that neither she nor the science community have all the answers but it is obvious that she keeps up with new breakthroughs in knowledge and treatments for my particular ailments. Dr. Grapin is down-to-Earth, friendly, smart, and caring. She will take the time to answer all my questions no matter how many times I ask the same ones. These are the characteristics I look for in a healthcare provider. In my experience, I have only received friendly, professional service from her staff during my many years of interaction. I have found with other healthcare professionals that by scheduling my appointments first thing in the morning, the staff is fresh and not rushed because they are behind schedule.

Ive been seeing Dr. Grapin for 2 years now. As a medical provider myself, I put my trust in practitioners who practice evidence based medicine (makes medical decisions based on current research). Dr. Grapin is a great example of a physician who stays on top of current research. She also practices with years of experience behind her. She is professional and very knowledgeable. I recommend her to my friends and to my patients. Ive always found her staff members to be extremely efficient and professional. I appreciate that they are always trying to run on time and that they get lab results back very fast. This is a great physician and practice as a whole.

Dr Grapin emotionally abused my wife this morning. She was not allowed to have her spouse in the room, claimed her Bartholin cysts were not a problem without a full physical exam, and questioned intelligence and accuracy as it related to her long medical history. She was clearly out of her league when mentioning more complex pelvic issues and even the size of a Word catheter. Stay as far away from here as you possibly can.
