While the phone line is hard to get through, I had endless questions for Dr. Vogel, and she always responded in a timely manner via MyChart messaging. Dr. Vogel also was an incredible doctor to have as my champion in the delivery room. She was incredibly encouraging, confident, and really shines in the delivery setting.

I found a new gynecologist on the eastside and everything was fine -- I just really missed Dr. Bohn. Then I started bleeding twice a month. My new doctor brushed it off, saying it was normal for my age and told me to take some vitamins. It didn't feel right, so I went back to Dr. Bohn. Within two minutes, she suspected I had polyps. She scheduled the surgery, removed them, and just like that, I was back to a normal cycle. Dr. Bohn has always been kind, patient, warm, knowledgeable -- everything you could ever want in a doctor. I love her so much. Truly, no one compares.

Buckle up dear reader, we're going on a ride. The destination is my wholehearted belief that Dr…read more Mia DiJulio is a brilliant physician and a caring, compassionate caregiver, and that I canNOT recommend her enough. So for the tl;dr crew, you can stop here. For more details...I'm in the rare position of writing a review of my amazing OB-GYN without having a baby to show for it. I've never been pregnant, it's the opposite: I've struggled for years with my busted babymaker. I've BEGGED previous doctors to get it out of me. I watched as my mother nearly bled to death in an ER before having hers removed in a frantic emergency operation. For years I saw various specialists, sitting in office after office surrounded by pregnant bellies and collages on the wall of all the beautiful babies the doctors in those offices had delivered. Societal patriarchy plus the necessary overabundance of caution from medical professionals on irreversible procedures meant trying all sorts of things and having my experience of menstrual bleeding most (!) days either minimized or outright dismissed. Again, patriarchy. Generally speaking, women's reproductive health is not treated in a way that expresses anything but contempt for women, and specifically speaking there are, unfortunately, female practitioners who uphold archaic parameters as enthusiastically as certain male ones. "You'll change your mind"/"Having a baby one day will be worth it" etc. So, we've got sexism and medical patriarchy. Next stop? Racism! I am a Black woman and racial bias in medical education and training is a hideous byproduct of overall systemic racism that many people are working to address and undo. It is a fact that Black women have disproportionately higher maternal death rates than our counterparts. So, while ideally any doctor has an awareness of these things, the stakes are profoundly higher as an OB-GYN. And yes, this all matters. Because Dr. DiJulio (who to my knowledge has no African ancestry), has made me feel seen, heard, and cared for from minute one. I sit here now with no uterus anymore, nearly 2 months after she performed a laparoscopic hysterectomy. A hysterectomy is major surgery to begin with (trust me, I've done my research!) and doing it laparoscopically is even more complicated. Massive kudos to Dr. DiJulo's colleague Dr. Klara Vogel, the first doctor I saw at the WONDERFUL Providence St. John's Physician Partners Santa Monica Women's Health office, who referred me to Dr. DiJulio right away because of her expertise with this specific type of surgery. Of course the aim was for a laparoscopic procedure, but I know that with the size of my fibroids, there's still a chance I'd wake up to find they'd had to "open me up" with a large incision. Nope! I have 2 tiny incisions and a painless empty space where my cursed reproductive organs used to be. For the record, I've always wanted to have a family and I still pray that God may bless me with a child to love, however that child enters this world. And I'm aware that part of me finally having the surgery is that my chronological age has caught up with childbearing prime years. It means so much to me that Dr. DiJulio has always held space for the complicated state of feeling like I'm the only person at the OB-GYN who'll never leave there with a baby. But that's the thing - I may have felt that way but the reality is there are more of us than we could ever know, because the many complications of our reproductive systems are not talked about as freely as the miracle of childbirth. There are so many things chalked up to "female trouble" that are serious medical conditions for which there actually is treatment and relief, in the right hands. Those hands belong to Dr. Mia DiJulio, the Beyonce of OB-GYNs. She didn't deliver my baby, she delivered me from suffering. And I am eternally grateful.

As my pregnancy progressed, we learned my baby was breech so my dreams of experiencing a natural and unmedicated labor turned into a planned c section. Dr Amersi was incredible at helping me see the positives in a c section and ensure I was comfortable with the change in plans. The delivery of my baby girl with Dr Amersi at St John's was truly a 10/10 experience. She makes the incision SO low and takes the time to stitch vs glue at the end so you have a cleaner scar. Comparing to other people's c section experiences I know of ... I know I am beyond lucky to have had Dr Amersi perform mine. I have healed amazingly and a procedure that initially terrified me has become one of the most special memories in my life to date. Thank you Dr Amersi for your amazing care and helping to bring my daughter into the world!

He never even offered to check all my levels, and they were off the chart bad. Has no care for his patients and zero knowledge on how to treat/speak to woman in menopause.

This review reflects my experience with the office staff at this practice…read more Though patient care does include how patients are treated by office staff. On Dr Nguyen's website, it says he is accepting new patients. But despite our attempts over 2 weeks to schedule a checkup, it seems like the office is not interested in scheduling a check up for new patients. This is understandable, but please just make it obvious that you are not accepting new patients. Also, when we contacted UCLA Health, they were uncertain of exactly where Dr Nguyen's office is. They suggested to my partner to go to the office to enquire of the staff. When he finally arrived at the office, he was shooed away. The whole process felt unprofessional, like we were vying for a coveted appointment with a Kardashian cosmetic surgeon, not a practical appointment with an OB.

My baby decided to arrive earlier than expected, and unfortunately Dr. Kiseleva was not able to be physically present for my delivery. But even from a distance, she continued to be there for me and made important medical decisions that had a profound impact on both my life and my baby's life. Knowing that she was still involved and looking out for us gave me so much reassurance during an incredibly stressful and emotional time. I truly believe Dr. Kiseleva is a gifted physician -- the kind of doctor you hope to have when something as important as your pregnancy and your baby's life is in her hands. She combines outstanding medical knowledge with compassion, intuition, and genuine care. I absolutely adore her and will forever be grateful for everything she did for me and my baby. I cannot recommend Dr. Kiseleva highly enough. She is simply an extraordinary doctor and an amazing human being.

I will share my impressions of working with the wonderful doctor Dina Kiseleva…read more We met Dina this summer, when I was 5 months pregnant. I turned to her to continue my pregnancy after moving from another city. We immediately found a common language, she is a very pleasant and tactful person in communication. It's very easy to work with Dina, she listens carefully, delves into problems and questions, prescribes treatment, gives recommendations if necessary. I visited her office almost every week, it's cozy, nice staff who help if you have any questions. We decided to stimulate childbirth, as it was necessary according to the indications. We agreed with Dr. Dina on the date when I need to be in the hospital. I arrived at the hospital late at night, and early in the morning Dina came to my ward to ask about my well-being, to once again tell the plan of our actions. During the day she came to me, set me up in a good way, calmed me down so that I wouldn't worry. It was very pleasant, I was really calm, despite the pain I began to feel from the started contractions. Late in the evening I started giving birth, Dina arrived at the birth quickly, very calmly told me how to behave, what to do. Everything went very, very well! I am very happy that I turned to Dr. Dina, thanks to her, 5 days ago I became a mother of a wonderful baby, and now she sleeps sweetly next to me I want to express my great gratitude to the wonderful doctor Dina, you are a wonderful doctor and a very good person. If I give birth again, then only with You. Thank You soo much!)
