The MA was wildly inappropriate and unknowledgeable about how to update and change my appointment from an ultrasound to a consultation for a miscarriage. There was no empathy, and she made it quite clear that they just wanted to cancel my appointment altogether. I emailed the doctor thinking he would appreciate the feedback, and he was actually worse than the MA. He obviously only cares about patients who will have a baby. I'm glad to have the experience ahead of time rather than in person. read more

My husband and I have nothing but the absolute best things to say about both Dr Fejes and his office staff. The office is nice, clean and friendly. Making appointments was a breeze and Dr Fejes was there to help and guide us the whole pregnancy. Dr Fejes was very understanding and respectful of my birth preferences and is a great doctor to see if you want a doctor that will do his very best to help you have the birth that you are aiming for, especially if you want to go the natural route. He is very knowledgeable and experienced and you will be safe in his hands! Not to mention fun to talk to! Thank you again for the wonderful, safe delivery of our baby boy. read more

Alexander Richard L II MD - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Monterey, California

He's always been a 5-star OB-Gyn doctor! Both his front and back office assistants are very friendly staff and customer-oriented. I've been his patient since 1991-present and delivered my 2nd and 3rd baby boys! Keep up the great work! Happy Holidays to all! read more

The year of 2020 wasn't a good year for most of us but we are very thankful for two things that happened to us during that year. One is that God blessed us with our baby. The other is that God connected us with a very good doctor. Dr Alexander and his team took good care of me throughout my pregnancy. They made this not so easy journey during a very difficult year a joyful experience for me and my family. We are very appreciative of their knowledge, professionalism and a safe yet very cozy environment they provide. This office also has very friendly and caring staffs and nurses. Their professionalism and patience make every visit a pleasant experience. Unfortunately, we are going to move out of the area. I wish my next OBGYN doctor can be close to Dr Alexande. We really wish that when we have our next baby, we can be back to the area so that we can see Dr Alexander again. That's how good he is! read more

If you have a yeast infection or a UTI and you need to see a doctor quickly this is not the place for you. I have a uti and it hurts really badly. I asked for the soonest appointment and they said October 17th! I said what? But this hurts what am I supposed to do? The receptionist said well we are switching online so you'll be able to text him. What on earth is texting him gonna do? He can't prescribe me medicines or give me a diagnosis on the phone. I am getting a new obgyn asap read more

Great experience at this office. Dr Fejes was so nice. And the office staff is friendly and comfortable to be around. I'm one of those nervous types and they are so laid back. I could tell they were busy but still concerned about my crazy nervous feelings. Very professional and get right down to business. Highly recommend .. read more

I'm quite impressed and thankful for my experience with this doctor and staff. When I visited for the first time I had a very good experience. Everyone was very professional yet also personable. The efficiency and organization of this office is impeccable. I'm very happy to have found this office. The doctor took his time and cared about me as an individual and provided great care.They have a very nice office environment. Julie and Ems are great always so helpful and kind. Thank you very much for treating me with respect and for genuinely caring for my individual healthcare needs. Also I will like to describe my experience in more detail. I call this office when I was 36 weeks pregnant. Yes I know very late in pregnancy, but it was only after I found out the doctor I was seeing throughout my pregnancy was not going to be able to deliver my baby. Yes I know I was so upset to say the least. But this office was so great they took me right away and my 1st appointment was great. A week later I went into labor and the doctor literally saved life. I had a natural delivery no problem. But right after the delivery things went very wrong and I was extremely lucky to have doctor Alexander there to take care of me. He reacted to the situation fast. We are so thankful words can't explain. The problem I had is very uncommon but because he has years or experience and because he is the best he was able to save my life and for that I am eternally thankful. read more

I was referred to Dr.Alexander and transferred at 2 months pregnant. It was by far the best decision I ever made. I'm a first time mother in my early 30s and was beyond anxious. Dr. Alexander was from day one was patient,kind and understanding of all my concerns. Dr.Alexander has been nothing short of heaven sent as well as his team. Julie sets the tone from the moment you walk in she is warm, sweet and very welcoming. Lucy is also very pleasant and kind. I cannot praise them all enough,I'm extremely thankful for the treatment I received and recommend them to everyone I know. read more

Dr. Alexander was my OBGYN throughout my pregnancy. (Unfortunately, he was not able to deliver my child, since the little guy decided to make his world debut three weeks before his due date, just when Dr. Alexander was leaving on a short vacation!) I chose Dr. Alexander as my OBGYN because of the positive reviews found on Yelp, and I'm glad I did. He is kind and articulate, and I always felt completely comfortable in his care. I had some health issues during my pregnancy that meant I needed to be careful surrounding my weight gain and diet. I felt self-conscious about these issues, but Dr. Alexander never made me feel bad about them; he was encouraging and positive about my efforts to minimize the impact they would have on my child. It's important to note that Dr. Alexander is VERY busy and is "always trying to stay ahead of the next delivery." This can make appointments feel rushed. However, he is always willing to take the time to thoroughly answer any questions. I never left an appointment feeling unhappy, or that I hadn't been properly attended to/cared for. Dr. Alexander is a great OBGYN, and I would recommend him to anyone in need of one. read more

My wife and I recently had a bad run in with a OB doctors office in salinas so we switched over to this office First and foremost we are very happy with what weve seen so far he and his staff are very helpful to any questions we have about the pregnancy. The office is very clean and organized. Hes very helpful in explaining classes that we can enroll our selfs and the tours we can take of Chomp. We like that he is super easy to talk to and a very Knowledgeable doctor. read more

When I became pregnant and needed an OB I asked several people who they recommended and they all said Dr. Alexander was the best! They were right! From the moment I stepped into his office I was welcomed and taken care of. The pandemic changed everything, but it didn't change the extraordinary care I received from the entire staff and I am forever grateful for their care and attention. read more

I saw Dr. Alexander for my entire second pregnancy and I wish I had found him sooner. What an amazing office. The staff is impeccable. He made me feel so comfortable and I can see why there are so many other 5 star reviews. I will always recommend him. He's a fantastic doctor with incredible bedside manner! read more

What a perfect experience for my first baby and my lady checkups. You get such a friendly staff from the moment you arrive with Julie to Emily and Dr Alexander. They make everything calm and fun. He answered all my questions thru my pregnancy to after. I can't wait to have baby number two with them when ever that may be. Thank you staff! read more

Dr. Alexander is the best of the best. He delivered my first baby, and has also recently helped me through a miscarriage. He is so kind, professional and attentive. He genuinely cares for each of his patients, and I always leave feeling much more at peace and in such good hands. Julie and the rest of the staff also do an amazing job making you feel welcomed and cared for. I'm so grateful to have Dr. Alexander as my OBGYN and I HIGHLY recommend him! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Alexander's for 2 pregnancies now. My first pregnancy I arrived in Monterey at 36 weeks and he was willing to squeeze me in - my time with him was short but good. This pregnancy I'm not all that impressed. He is consistently running behind, it's nothing for me to wait 30 minutes beyond my appointment time to be seen. I went in at 20 weeks expecting to find out the sex of my baby - only to be told that Dr. Alexander was running behind that day and wouldn't be able to perform the ultrasound. I have had a few concerns come up and contacted the office to speak with the nurse who has been less than helpful. The first time I spoke with her she told me she was new but my symptoms seemed normal to her. The second time she told me the symptoms seemed normal to her, after insisting have give me a less generic response she said that she would get back to me in 2-3 hours. Overall, I'm content with the practice but would probably look elsewhere for a third pregnancy. read more

Dr. Alexander is quite amazing! I recently had a surgery and was under the care of Dr. Alexander and his wonderful team. He is very patient, articulate, comforting, and has an amazing sense of humor which put my nerves at ease. The office staff is beyond professional and extremely helpful. They make you feel acknowledged and appreciated. Thank you, Dr. Alexander for taking care of me and helping me through this process! read more

I first heard of Dr Alexander from an ER doctor who suggested I be seen by him for a more in depth ultra sound after I went in to the ERA for bleeding early on in my pregnancy. After scheduling an appointment with Julie the receptionist (sweetest lady) I was seen. Dr. Alexander is very professional. He explained what he was looking for and what he was doing as he did it, the ultrasound confirmed I was still pregnant, and he rejoiced with us. From then on Dr Alexander was my OBGYN. He does have another doctor (Dr. Fejes) who works on Fridays who I saw for a lot of my appointments. Here is the main difference between Dr. Alexander and Dr. Fejes. (In my opinion) I would say Fejes is more personable. He talks small talk and will just be more open than Dr Alexander. A lot of people say Dr Alexander isn't friendly and that isn't the case!!! He is a more get in, do your job, get out. My appointments were shorter with Alexander because I didn't chit chat. If there was a question I would ask and we would discuss it, if not I could call and ask or just wait for the next appointment. When I delivered at chomp another doctor was on call. I was looking forward to having Alexander or Fejes deliver me since I knew them and they knew me. They called Dr Alexander at 330 in the morning and he showed up! He was a FANTASTIC coach to help me deliver my son. He told me when to stop pushing to help not tear, and was very calm. I'm so glad he delivered my son. I love this practice. I highly recommend this practice to any woman for gynecological or pregnancy needs! read more

A friend raved about the doctor that delivered her first baby so when I became pregnant over a year later I went with him, Dr. Alexander. I had a great experience and am sad we are moving (military) because I would definitely choose to see him again if I became pregnant. It says on his website that he encourages natural childbirth and it is true! I labored at home on and off for 30 hours, then went to the hospital and labored another 12 hours and had back labor. Dr. Alexander let me go and did not get nervous or push anything to speed up the process, all in accordance with my birth plan. The outcome was a wonderful natural childbirth experience for my husband, new son, and I. It became obvious that Dr. A is passionate about delivering babies, he was totally in his element at the hospital during "go time." While I found him pleasant and knowledgable throughout my pregnancy during office visits, he truly shines when it comes time for the baby to arrive. He is a genuine Dr. and I would go to him again if I could and recommend him to my sister, that's how much my husband and I enjoyed our experience. The office staff was great too. Yes we had to wait a few times and once our appt had to be rescheduled as we were on our way because Dr. A had to deliver a baby. None of this bothered me because I would rather have a caring doctor and one on one care, which is what I was getting. Since Dr. A is the only Dr. In his practice, if a baby decides to come during your appt, it will have to be rescheduled or delayed. To me it was worth it to know he was going to deliver my baby. read more

First pregnancy, wasn't really happy with my first doctor, read reviews on Dr. Alexander so I decided to switch. And WOW, from the very first day, we were blown away, everyone is so friendly and helpful. Always smiling, Dr. Alexander is amazing, I feel truly lucky to have found him. I had an amazing birth experience and have him to thank for it. I definitely recommend him. read more

I have been so pleased with Dr. Alexander, who was my obstetrician with my first child. He delivered my baby girl a few months ago and had my husband catch her. It was an amazing moment for all of us and I feel so lucky that Dr. Alexander was a part of it. He is the most calming, caring doctor I have ever had. He isn't very talkative but cared. Furthermore he was precise and professional. My husband and I had such a wonderful experience with his team. It was a joy having him oversee my very first pregnancy. The rest of the staff is also great. Julie is so sweet and professional, as are all the folks with whom I've interacted. Office is clean and comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Alexander for those who are looking for OBGYN in Monterey area! read more

Dr Alexander is the best Ob/Gyn I have ever had. He is professional, knowledgeable, kind and caring, what more could anyone ask for. I was referred to Dr Alexander 10 years ago and I am grateful I was. I highly recommend Dr Alexander. His entire staff is excellent as well. Everyone cares! read more

I medically was in need of Dr. Alexander for my continual cancer concerns. I sought his help and advice and as usual...TOP NOTCH and his compassion made me feel so comforted. The word around town is that he has retired or is retiring and I wanted to clear this up....HE'S GOING NOWHERE...We Won't Let Him. Again, as all reviews, he is the best OBGYN in Monterey County. No worries whatsoever with Dr. Alexander...he's there for you 100% and his office staff is great and extremely professional...this is one well oiled office. Thank You Dr. Alexander and staff for 20 years of wonderful care and service! read more

What can I say about Dr. Alexander that hasn't already been said? He's one heck of an OBGYN and I would give that man 100 starts IF I could. I first met Doctor Alexander early last year in the ER. I sadly had a miscarriage and my husband and I were new to the area and didn't know anyone. Though it wasn't the best circumstances he went out of his way to make me feel comfortable and took care of us. The compassion he showed my husband and I during that short time in the ER touched us both very deeply. Words cannot express how much it meant. It was at that moment I knew I wanted him to be our doctor again for our next time around. Happily it did! Seven months later. I was so delighted to have him as my doctor! He was so informative and very knowledgeable. My overall experience with him during my pregnancy was amazing. The staff (especially Julie) are very friendly and give a family-like atmosphere. I'm so fortunate to have had him and his staff take care of us. Because of him, we have a happy healthy baby girl and I'm over the moon full of joy. I highly recommend him to anyone who is expecting (especially military.) I promise you you'll be satisfied with your overall experience. Thank you again Dr. Alexander! read more

Alexander Richard L II MD - 1 month after he delivered our daughter Eva! - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Monterey, California

Dr. Alexander is an amazing OBGYN. He delivered my second child this past weekend and my labor experience with him was 100x better than my previous birth at Johns Hopkins. Dr. Alexander is very attentive, professional, and has great bed side manner. His office staff are also wonderful and always friendly. My oldest child was always welcome to attend my appointments and offered stickers after. I recommend Dr. Alexander to everyone that asks about OBs in the area. If I was to have a 3rd pregnancy while living in this area, I would go back to Dr. Alexander's practice in a heartbeat. read more

Dr. Alexander is an amazing OB/GYN! I am pregnant with my first child and I have had an amazing experience at his office. The entire staff is friendly and efficient and a pleasure to work with. I am lucky to have found his practice for my first child so I can continue to to see him in the future! read more

Dr. Alexander has been my doctor throughout my pregnancy and has delivered my beautiful baby girl 3 weeks ago. He is attentive and thorough and i have grown very fond of him and his entire staff Julie and Jamie who have made themselves available for any questions or concerns i had through out the entire experience. His financial department has made my payments affordable and helped me file all correct papers for my maternity leave. This has been a wonderful experience for me and my husband and we will definitely come back when we decide to have another baby :) We would definitely highly recommend him. read more

My first pregnancy, I came to Dr. Alexander late - around 23 weeks. He was very friendly, informative and to the point. My appointments never lasted long unless I had questions. He's always available, and his secretary Julie is SUCH a sweetheart! She really makes an effort to get to know the patients. His nurses are just as friendly and always seem so happy to see you there! A few days before my due date (and after, I was 3 days late), he explained to me what I should look for and if my son wasn't born within the week he'd schedule an induction. I thought my water broke 2 days before I delivered and Dr. Alexander arrived at the hospital where they were checking me and made sure I was okay. When I finally went into labor, he was already at the hospital tending to other patients but came in and delivered my son in 4 minutes! I tore and he stitched me up just fine (no discomfort or anything), and checked in on us the following days. I'm so lucky to have had Dr. Alexander as my doctor, especially for my first pregnancy, because I found out so late and had no idea what to expect. He put me at ease and I really enjoyed visiting him, Julie and the nurses at his office. Definitely an OB/GYN to go to! (And we did 3D ultrasounds!! So much fun!) read more

Doctor Alexander is incredible. I had my first baby in Hawaii and didn't have the best experience so I wanted a great doctor in Monterey. I saw Dr. Alexander's reviews on Yelp so I figured I would give him a try. From my first appointment I knew I was in good hands. The receptionist, Julie, is friendly and accommodating. I can't say enough nice things about her. The nurses are all outgoing and informative and Doctor Alexander is just the greatest. He is friendly, charismatic, and knowledgable. I always left appointments on cloud 9 with the information and advice he would give me. Although, the one thing I will say is make sure you schedule ample amount of time for your appointments because he is almost always running late. I can't really say this is a complaint because he runs late to ensure he can deliver all his patients' babies at CHOMP even if it's during the workday. He came in on his day off to deliver my son and I am more than grateful. The whole process was smooth and easy with his guidance through my delivery. He's the best doctor I've ever had!! I would definitely recommend him to anyone!!! read more

Dr. Alexander was my doctor during my first child and I couldn't have asked for a more knowledgeable, calm, cool, collected, professional doctor. During the pregnancy we visited him every month and the last month or so on a weekly basis, and every appointment was Great. He was very attentive to all our questions and inquiries before and after labor. His advice during labor definitely helped me get through an entire natural delivery. I would recommend Dr. Alexander to anyone trying to do a natural birth or labor anyway. Also, anytime I mention his name to local people in the Monterey area, he is usually known and comes with an amazing story since he started his practice in the 80s and 90s. Incredible guy and incredible stuff at the office read more

Dr Alexander is amazing. I've had him for both of my boys births and I wouldn't change a thing from my experiences. I tend to be more natural with my decisions and like as little amount of interventions and medicine as possible. Dr Alexander never questioned my decisions or concerns. He allowed me to make my own decisions about my body and was always respectful and never pushy. Also with my births, he has an amazing gift. He walks into the room during labor and instantly brings a sense of calmness. The nurses were concerned about my sons heart beat dropping and were clearly stressed which was in turn making me stressed. He came into the room and with all smiles just said "okay looks like it's time to push this baby out!" And he was out in 10 min. I believe his sense of calmness helped me relax and focus into getting my precious boy out as soon as possible! He was such a gift to me and I will remember his help forever. When you are looking for a doctor, look for someone who respects your opinions, is knowledgeable and also remembers to smile. Thank you Dr Alexander for helping me love both my birth experiences. It's a day you remember forever and I can smile knowing it was the best day for so many reasons. Also; Julie is amazing!!! She is the receptionist and is SO sweet and on top of everything. Thanks for everything Julie! read more

I found Dr. Alexander on Yelp and he was the best find ever! I found out I was pregnant at about 4 weeks, so I had him for the duration. This man, and his staff, is amazing! He is the only doctor in his office and he works incredibly hard to be there for his patients - my husband jokes that Dr. Alexander must never sleep! My appointments were almost always on time and usually took very little time. All of my questions were answered thoroughly and Dr. Alexander made an effort to know us and our situation. I had a very easy pregnancy until the last week or so when my baby flipped around breech. I was nervous about a couple of things and had to go into the hospital a couple of times to get checked out. Dr. Alexander calmed my fears and met me at the hospital when possible. When I did go into labor, he delivered my son at 4:30 in the morning and was back in checking on me around 8 before going to the office. He checked on my every day I was in the hospital (4 days). I so enjoyed going to Dr. Alexander and his staff that I actually miss them all now that my son is here. I had such a wonderful experience from start to finish and recommend Dr. Alexander wholeheartedly! Julie is amazing to work with as well - very knowledgeable, kind, and caring. Being new to the area, I also asked Dr. Alexander for referrals for a PCP, Pediatrician, Chiropractor, and Urologist - we love all the doctors he has recommended. It is a true testament to the kindness, knowledge, and abilities of a doctor when EVERYONE in Monterey knows him and has great things to say about him - I'm pretty sure he has delivered most of Monterey County! My only wish is that I had Dr. Alexander for my first pregnancy! Thanks for everything Dr. Alexander and Julie! read more

I've heard great things about this doctor! Unfortunately, I never got to see him because I had a miscarriage and was, basically, tossed aside. He takes on WAY too many patients that he just doesn't have time for and the office is a mess. It seems that there is no organization or communication between staff. Julie, the receptionist, is nice as can be, but it seems she is very forgetful. I had to call three times after TWO E.R. visits just to have the office follow up with me. She told me she would call the hospital and get my results sent over. She never did and she never followed back up with me and told me the office was "over-booked". This was my first miscarriage and couldn't be spared ten minutes to let me know what the hell was going on with my body. I finally just sent them an email letting them know how disappointed I was with their service and that I'd be seeing a different doctor and, two weeks later, still have not gotten a reply. I feel like while being pregnant, every little thing could potentially be an emergency. Especially while it is your first and aren't entirely sure how you're body will react. As an obstetrician gynecologist, he should be able to make time for all his patients. I know this is probably an abnormality within his office. I have a friend seeing him and has only faced minor hiccups with trying to get in to see him. I would just honestly hate for anyone else to go through the same emotional nightmare. read more

I will preach to anyone who will listen about how fantastic Dr. Alexander and his practice are. Julie the receptionist is fantastic/friendly/professional/helpful, and Carmen the Medical Assistant is SO helpful/friendly/professional & always willing to answer questions. Dr. Alexander if truly the best. He is SO smart and knowledgeable & I can tell he truly cares about the well being of his babies and mamas. There are no stupid questions to him. He is so kind about any questions/concerns I have. I would refer them to anyone. Thank you Dr. Alexander! read more

My baby and I had a wonderful experience under the care of Dr. Alexander and his team. We had to switch OBs around 32 weeks because my previous OB lost privileges at CHOMP. It was wonderful that Dr. Alexander accepted me as a new patient late into my pregnancy. He was responsive to his after hours care and his staff was incredibly warm and kind. I highly recommend him for other mamas out there who want an experienced professional looking out for mom and baby's health. read more

Didn't think I was going to find a good OBGYN in Monterey, but finally I did! So knowledgeable, sensitive, understanding. Thinks outside the box. Takes his time with you. Staff is very efficient and kind. Feel very lucky to have found him! read more

Best OBGYN in Monterey County. He is the friendliest most knowledge Dr and makes you feel very welcome in his office I recommended him to anyone looking for an OBGYN read more

Dr. Alexander is one of the BEST doctors out there! I did not see him for a pregnancy, I had some problems with my ovaries. This is not something he typically deals with, however, he was referred to me while I was in the hospital and the first time he visited I didn't want to talk to any other doctor (mind you, there were about 8 that I had seen at that point). He was so down to earth and understanding of my needs. He was also very honest when my situation got worse he admitted that it may be something that Stanford is more qualified to handle. All in all, with both Stanford and Dr. Alexander's help I was able to get through my situation and am now healing. He is not one of those doctor's that check you off their to-do list. He's kind, considerate, and very knowledgeable. I was very lucky and blessed to have had him for a doctor. read more

The office staff and Alexander are top notch! The wait time is short, staff is always polite, and your questions can always get answered before you leave the office. Being a busy man, Alexander always made time to answer any questions we had during our visits. He has a very claim bed side manner, which we really appreciated with this being our first child. If we weren't moving in 3months we would defiantly use him again in the future. Great practice! read more

I consider myself lucky to have found Dr. Alexander and his team to care for me during my high risk twin pregnancy. He gave me exceptional care and support and monitored us very closely which gave me a great deal of peace of mind. It's no exaggeration when I say that he saved my life during my traumatic emergency C-section and even the delivery nurses told me that I couldn't have been in better hands during the entire ordeal. The women in his office are all lovely and a pleasure to see during our visits. I'd give him 10 stars if I could! read more

I was ill for 7 month with severe abdominal pain and nausea. I had seen approximately 8 doctors and had thousands of dollars worth of testing. I finally inquired about endometriosis. My first gynecologist completely brushed me off as my 'scans were normal'. I had been referred to Dr. Alexander by 2 other people. He was the first person to listen to me and believe that endometriosis was my diagnosis. In fact, he told me surgery was needed right away but that he recommended an endometriosis specialist and referred me to a surgeon in Palo Alto. I did have endometriosis throughout my abdomen. Dr. Alexander seriously saved my life and I could not be more grateful. read more
