    I typically don't leave reviews, but this hurtful experience with Dr. Catherine Cepeda warrants…read morehonest feedback. The day prior to my 9:15 AM annual visit a couple days ago, the office called me to confirm my appointment. I asked the person how many patients were booked before me so I can better plan my work schedule. I was told there was only one patient ahead of me at 9am and I should be out no later than 10am. I arrived at 9am and was placed in a room fairly quickly, where I then waited nearly an hour undressed in the paper gown. I opened the door to check what was going on and the attendant down the hall told me Dr. Cepeda was running late and had not arrived at the office. I told her I would unfortunately have to leave as I needed to get to work for a meeting. No no rede than 5 minutes later I walked out the room and I saw Dr. Cepeda at the desk chatting and laughing with the lady that told me she wasn't there and another nurse. There had been no communication to patients about the delay, nor any acknowledgment of the time we had been waiting. When I approached her and explained that I had to leave, she stated that she had "just arrived" and gestured toward other rooms she needed to attend to. I respectfully referenced the prior day's scheduling conversation and that I was told only 1 patient was before me at 9am and asked her if she could see me. At that point, I was met with a dismissive tone from staff who told me they had 3 other patients in front of me and - most unexpectedly, a visible shoulder shrug and "there's nothing I can do" from Dr. Cepeda. What troubled me most was not simply the delay -- medical offices run behind at times. It was the lack of accountability, empathy, or professionalism. Being left waiting in a vulnerable state for nearly an hour, only to receive a dismissive response, felt disrespectful and surprisingly impersonal. As patients, we arrange our work schedules and responsibilities to attend appointments. Basic communication, courtesy, and acknowledgment of delays should not be too much to expect. Dr. Cepeda's lack of professionalism was startling. This would have been my 2nd (maybe 3rd) annual visit with her. I will not return and have to find a new doctor. No patient should be faced with this type of dismissive lack of care. I hope this feedback encourages a greater awareness of how patient interactions are handled moving forward.

I've never had a call where I haven't been placed on hold over five minutes. I've scheduled appointments. The appointments have been canceled. I've scheduled other appointments and come in and I can't see the doctor. It's recommended that I see a nurse practitioner if I don't want to wait. This is despite my appointment being scheduled specifically with the doctor. Office is always been clean and for the most part nursing staff are friendly. I had an issue with one of my test and no one called me back to follow up on the test results. They were sent to me via email with no follow up although I paid for the appointment.

My husband and I paid $350 to wait 2 hours for a VBAC consult, that quite literally lasted 5 minutes. Not sure why this couldn't be done virtually or over the phone. A huge waste of time. Another deterrent from this place is the way the doctor spoke to us. We got a very dismissive tone from him which I did not appreciate after what we paid. And if you're wondering what the $350 included, it was literally just to SPEAK with him. Nothing more. They tell you this beforehand but that doesn't take away from how financially predatory that is. Beware.

    On Friday, during an apparent medical emergency, I called Dr. Kandinov. He said he couldn't help…read morebecause he needed to go home early -- it was around 2:00 PM and his nurses had already left -- and asked us to wait until Monday. He then left the clinic instead of staying to coordinate care. He provided no information about the nearest emergency departments, no instructions for follow-up care, and no emergency contact information. He wrote a prescription for methotrexate 100 mg but failed to arrange for it to be dispensed or to explain the next steps; we had to obtain and deliver the medication ourselves. As a result of these omissions, the patient required emergency admission to the hospital on Saturday. At the emergency department, staff were surprised that the medication had been handed to us and asked why the doctor had given it directly to the family. Dr. Kandinov also failed to arrange an ultrasound when it was clinically indicated; when we requested diagnostic imaging, he refused and did not record either the recommendation or the refusal in the medical record. All of this was frightening, expensive, and entirely avoidable. In our opinion, these actions demonstrate alarming unprofessionalism and a lack of concern for patient safety. The surgeon who performed the procedure said this outcome might have been avoided because the patient had visited Dr. Kandinov two weeks earlier. However, the doctor did not take the concerns seriously; the consultation appeared cursory. He appears to rush through appointments, spending only a few minutes in each office and not devoting adequate time to patients. It seems to me that money plays a bigger role for him than treating patients Think carefully before you go. Be vigilant.

    I've been going to Dr. Kandinov for a few years once a year, never had any issue. Quite easy to…read moreschedule an appointment, not a long wait time.

I was surprised in a good way. Yessi is super patient and her bedside manner is very caring precise and direct. She listens to all of my complaints and takes everything I say seriously. Where in my experience with other Drs, historically some would diminish my complaints or brush something off as normal. That is not the case with Yessi Felipe. I fell fully listened to. I enjoy coming to this office and would highly recommend. This is a private office and My wait Time is very limited. I usually visit the Drs office either early in the morning or at lunch time and I am in and out. I do not like offices that treat patients like they are running a mill. You know, the ones where patients are sitting around waiting hours and hours. No thank you! I have private insurance and will not tolerate that. I am a professional and my time is money. I appreciate the time management at the Hallandale beach OBGYN. The waiting room is small due to the building structure. I appreciate this as well. Given that there is very little wait time, you don't need a large waiting room. The rooms themselves are normal size. I even put in an emergency request using the dr portal and received a call back the same day! Thank you so much for that! I couldn't be happier with the service and attention I have received! By the way, I have never had a billing issue. I did once have an issue where the call for the appointment confirmation said to confirm press one to cancel press two. I pressed 2 and then received a call stating that I missed my appointment. However, since they only started charging the $25 cancellation fee after that happened that was not an issue for me. It's like everything. Everyone ya different standards based on preference.
