    Okay first of all, best doctor ever. Like most women, I have…read morethat pretty passionate hatred of the obgyn. But once I got pregnant, it was time to realize those visits were unavoidable and suck it up. I changed obgyns during the middle of my pregnancy from an office I thought was tolerable in San Jose, to Dr. Goddard when my husband and I moved to Grass Valley. I was skeptical about having a male obgyn at first, but after my first appointment I realized how awesome Dr. Goddard and his whole practice is. Hannah, the front desk receptionist is super sweet and friendly while you wait. His assistant is also super friendly and makes great conversation while taking your vitals while you wait for Goddard himself. Then, the show starts. Goddard is hilarious! I found myself and my husband laughing our asses off before our appointment was even half over. It wasnt uncomfortable at all. On a more serious note, he always was really patient with my questions as a first time mom and never rushed us. My previous OB had made me worried that my daughter measured a bit small, but Goddard reassured us she was fine and low and behold she is! He even assured us that he would be there for my delivery no matter what! And when my water broke on a Sunday morning, he showed up (wearing an adidas t shirt and cargo shorts) lol. Well anyways, great, funny, educated doctor! Really happy with my experience.

    Dr. Goddard was my doctor almost 30 years ago while at Travis AFB. I specifically asked that he…read morepreform my scheduled c-section because I trusted his knowledge and expertise. He was caring and took the time to make sure I felt comfortable after another doctor scared me days before my surgery. He was exceptional and I delivered a healthy baby boy. If I would have known he was in Grass Valley after I moved, I would have had him be my doctor for my other two children.

    First of all, I want to give some back story. I have been in the emergency medical field for 12…read moreyear. In my the 12 year I have seen the good, the bad and the horrific. I have seen excellent bedside manner and really bad bedside manner. The importance of good bedside manner cannot be understated when dealing with a patient no matter how routine or traumatic. Competence is another area in the medical field that is obviously of high importance. We have all seen it somewhere in our lives. You can generally tell rather quickly when someone is incompetent at the task at hand. Two weeks ago my wife and I went in for a 6 week ultra sound to confirm pregnancy and the location. All was well and it was progressing normally. We saw one of Dr Celestines traveling doctors who is no longer there. At the recommendation of that doctor we then came in for an 8 week ultra sound. At this appointment we saw Dr. Vassall. Dr. Vassall is a traveling doctor practicing at Dr Celestines office. At this appointment we never saw Dr Celestine, only Dr. Vassall. Today we went in for the 8 week ultra sound. Based on Vassalls bedside manner from the moment he walked in I knew it wasn't going to go well. During the ultra sound (trans-vaginal) he was whipping the probe around back and forth, which was very painful and uncomfortable for my wife. She expressed this to him several times and he did nothing different. He didn't acknowledge her discomfort in any way. As he was doing this he was trying to figure out how to use the ultra sound machine, it was if he had never seen one before. It was as if I gave my grandpa smart phone for the first time and he was trying to figure out how to use it. He was literarily fumbling around with so bad the medical assistant stepped in 3 different times telling him how to use it. His inability to work the machine screamed incompetence. He was so unfamiliar with it, it was the most unprofessional performance by a so called medical professional I have ever seen. Trust me I have seen a lot. Then he proceeded to tell us in a round about we that she had a miscarriage, never directly saying that to us. Then he went into a middle school equivalent description on how people get pregnant and what the process is. It was as if he was talking to a 10 year old about the physiologic changes that occur. It may seem like I am joking, but I can assure you, I am not. Obviously it is sad that we had a miscarriage, miscarriages are quite common. But what made all this a thousand times worse was Dr. Vassall. His bedside manner, communication, and technical ability to work the ultra sound machine was absolutely horrendous. It has been nearly 8 hours now and my wife is still in pain from the ultrasound. If you go to this office DO NOT see Dr Vassall. I do not know how Dr. Celestine is. Good luck and beware. You have been warned.
