After reading many of the negative comments, I can assure you the opposite. I recently received a referral to Dr Pattersons Office. I am extremely happy and thankful for the quality of service I received in just under a week. The receptionist and nurse were courteous and polite. Dr Patterson is the first Dr in this field that sat me down and answered all my questions in regards to my exam results w/o skipping a beat the very same day. That in itself was a surprise (usually wait for results.../not including labs) and a relief. Dr Patterson was direct in her approach, no sugar coating, told me my protocol and follow up. Ladies... she listens to you! She will answer any questions you may have! I was NOT rushed either. Key....I didn't waste her time either. I've already referred her to friends. read more

Dr. Patterson is amazing every time I go to the clinic for an appointment. I've seen her for exams and aesthetics- no issues with either. This physician stays on top of the latest trends and she is kind and caring. A key detail here is that Dr. Patterson will take more than enough time to make sure you're happy, comfortable and your procedure is done without rushing!!!! I've gone to other physicians for aesthetics and the doctor rushed and I didn't leave with the results I was promised- this is NOT the case with Dr. Patterson- I love her! The staff is friendly and prepared to assist with everything and billing is flawless. The office is clean, service is top notch, and I highly recommend her! read more

Dr Gwynn Patterson is an Awesome doctor! I highly recommend her! She is caring, understanding and helpful when you need her help! Best doctor of 2 I think are great here in Sierra Vista AZ! The staff is great as well! Thank all of you read more

I moved to Sierra Vista a year ago and decided to take care of a few medical concerns I had been putting off for while. Upon the recommendation of a friend of a friend, I landed in Dr. Patterson's office. I was told she was very good at her job - knowledgeable, thorough, and direct. "She'll tell you like it is," I believe is what my friend said. And she did. But along with this direct honesty, Dr. Patterson exuded a genuine kindness and sincere concern for my well-being. On that first visit and every visit after that she has taken the time to sit with me, hear me, and learn about me. She is always 100% present. I have never felt so personally cared for by a physician. Not only has my health improved over this past year, so has my quality of life. Dr. Patterson and her wonderful team have gifted me with a new sense of security. I can confidently move forward knowing they've got my back. read more

Dr. Patterson has been my Doctor for close to 20 years. She is kind, caring and very professional. I was heartbroken today when I called to schedule my yearly exam. My insurance changed over the summer to Aetna. The one insurance that Dr. Patterson's office doesn't take. I'm at a loss right now. I will miss her for all the wonderful years of care. There will never be another Dr. like her. I highly recommend Dr. Patterson. read more

I saw her twice this Fall during the Covid pandemic. Both times we went into her office, sat across the table from each other (approx 4' apart), door closed,, and she removed her mask. She lectured about all the false information out there, all the research she's done, etc. I will never go back. read more

I recently was looking for a new doctor and came across Dr. Patterson's office driving in town so I called and asked if they were an in-network provider (was told yes) and made my first appointment. I originally was looking to just get established as a new patient for birth control purposes. I went in and was seen numerous times for everything they suggested. Right before my last appointment which was just a follow-up I got my first bill. I thought it seemed high for a in-network provider so I contacted my insurance directly to see if something was billed incorrectly. That is when they told me it was due to them being out-of-network. Which meant a difference of a copay price around $30 a visit and me paying almost $1000 out of pocket when it would have been covered. I contacted their office to only have the front desk tell me they would never tell me if they were in or out-of-network. That was my own responsibility. I explained I understood that and that was the reason I asked before making an appointment. After asking to have the doctor contact me I was told she will never call a patient. The only way to speak to her is to pay for a follow-up again. I then asked if I could speak to anyone in the office regarding my issue and they stated they would have an office manager call me. I accepted that and waited two days with no call back. So I called again and spoke to the Medical Assistant to find out she was the office manager and never got a message to call me. I explained what happened and was told the same thing that the doctor would not contact me. About a week later I realized that no prescription had ever been called into a pharmacy so I called back to see if they could do that since that was my only reason for seeing them and I have already done all my appointments needed for the year. I then was told not without another consultation, which meant more money. I asked why when it had already been discussed that I was staying on the prescription I am already taken during my follow-up. They said they spoke to the doctor and she refused to refill that without additional appointments to discuss my high blood pressure first. I asked why this was not brought up when it was discussed during my other appointments, when she told me to continue on the one I was on and on my last visit my blood pressure was fine. The front staff said that is all they can offer. I never got a prescription filled even after my out of pocket of almost $1000 and yesterday I got lab bills that totaled just under $5000 because my information was sent incorrectly. So after fixing that myself I got no resolution and will still need an additional appointment to get what I went there for in the first place. The receptionist has been rude and when you can never expect information from the doctor when requested without paying again seems a little weird when you did every additional appointment suggested before. I am very disappointed that this all happened. I was even hoping to start seeing her for esthetics but after my awful experience I will not. If they knew that is why I came to their office from day one why would that not been addressed. I thought when a doctor states to continue taking the one I am on with no additional questions or comments to me I assumed it was handled. I was definitely disappointed in this office. read more

This is my second year with Dr. Patterson and I wish I'd found her seven years ago when we moved to Sierra Vista. Dr. Patterson gives the most thorough gynecological exam I have ever experienced in the 40-some years I have been seeing OB/GYNs. The "coldness" that some reviewers of this practice have attached to this physician is a misnomer. The doctor is very focused on her work and there is an intensity about her when she is giving her full attention to whatever medical problem is presented. She asks questions and she really listens to the patient feedback, which in my experience is a rarity. Another huge plus to the way Dr. Patterson conducts the exam is that the discussion of the exam and her treatment suggestions come after the patient is back in street clothes and sitting in her office. My prior two OB/GYNs implemented the time-saving method of dispensing medical advice to the half-frozen-paper-dress-clad patient in the exam room and then quickly moving on to the next patient. Dr. Patterson takes the necessary time to field questions after the exam and provide her medical advice in a setting where the patient is dressed and comfortable. Her diagnosis and treatment plan for my issues have made a substantial difference in my life. read more

After reading some very positive reviews, I decided to go to see Dr. Patterson myself. Dr. Paterson was very kind and listened to all my concerns. I never felt rushed, she was extremely thorough in her assessment of my concerns. Very knowledgeable regarding everything we discussed. I would highly recommend Dr. Patterson. After moving here last year, and having the same gynecologist in New York for twenty years, I am so grateful to have found her. read more

For several years I have been a patient of Dr. Patterson's. Her knowledge is unparalleled and the compassion she exudes far exceeds expectations. I am grateful to have her. read more

Dr. Patterson's office staff are RUDE. A routine appointment took 3 hours, she didn't introduce herself to me or my husband, she told me I am fat, she refused to refill a Rx for nausea (I am 17 weeks pregnant), and she sent me a test result with WRONG information. Unless you want to be humiliated, waste your time, and get incorrect test results, find another OB in town! read more

Dr. Patterson has been a joy to my husband and I. She is such a genuine, caring person and I'm so thankful we selected her as our OB. She shared in our excitement as we welcomed our first pregnancy and comforted us during one of our more difficult moments. I was pleasantly surprised and put at peace when I was connected directly to Dr. Patterson during an after-hours, urgent call. She saw me early the next morning, squeezing me in between other appointments. But, not once did we feel rushed. Instead, I felt like I was the only patient Dr. Patterson had planned to see that day. She took her time and stood by my husband and I as we learned we had miscarried. She comforted us during our loss, answered our questions and was so unbelievably sympathetic. With support from my husband and Dr. Patterson, I was scheduled for a D&C the following morning. Dr. Patterson visited me before surgery and was there when I awoke. She explained everything very clearly to my husband and I and took the time to answer our questions. I'd also like to thank the team at Sierra Vista Regional Health Center, who supported Dr. Patterson in this procedure. My husband and I were impressed by the care I received - the nurses, anesthesiologist and recovery team really made me feel comfortable. You don't need to travel to Tucson for the best OB care. You can find it at Dr. Patterson's office - right here, in Sierra Vista. I trust Dr. Patterson wholeheartedly and am thankful to have her as my OB. read more

Front desk personal very short and rude. The Doctor herself came across as very cold and uncaring. Very clinical. Would not recommend this office due to the clinical nature. In this specialty a little warmth and compassion goes a long way read more

I highly recommend her. After going to my primary and 2 other local OB's who couldn't tell me what was going on with my body, she was the first one to order the correct tests. She wrote down everything and truly studied right across the table from me my symptoms. I just had to be quiet and let her think ;) She is compassionate and I believe the first to actually care enough to help. She doesn't rush you. I quite possibly owe my life to her. She's been doing it a long time and is knowledgeable. Thank you Dr. Patterson. read more

I am complete impressed and blown away by the gentle and informative care my teenage daughter received from Dr Patterson. My daughter asked for an exam because of some concerns she had. Dr Patterson was so sweet, thoughtful and gentle when giving the exam. She made sure my daughter was comfortable and explained each step before performing it. She has fantastic bedside manners and a great personality. She really made an uncomfortable situation more bearable for my teen. Afterwards she had us sit in her office and she discussed her plan of action . She made sure both my daughter and I were ok with it. Then she requested to see my daughter for a follow up. Dr Patterson clearly cares about my daughter's health and well being. I can't even put into words accurately how grateful I am to Dr Patterson. I feel so fortunate to have a physician like her in the area. I will absolutely return to her and recommend her to others. read more

I was delighted to find such a wonderful, warm and knowledgeable ob/gyn. She took a lot of time to explain everything to me, really listened and I was able to make some informed decisions about my health that I didn't realize were available to me before I went to see her. She didn't push anything, but explained each option. I found her office staff to be very warm, friendly and considerate. I felt comfortable with Dr. Patterson right away. I used to just go anywhere to get my well-woman exams, but now there is only one place that I will go. (And the office is beautiful.) read more

The receptionist was very sweet. No one behind closed doors introduced themselves, including the Dr. I was seen for abdominal pain related to my cycle. She did not read me the exam results from the radiologist. She did not give warning prior to a rectal exam. She said I was a bad candidate for conception because i am unwed (lifetime relationship with the father) and because I am overweight (size 7). She told me "I treat women with REAL pain so go buy a bottle of Motrin and get over it." I complained to friends who say they have had similar experiences. Gwynn has the worst bedside manner I have ever seen. read more

I have been going to Dr Patterson for many years. Her staff are always warm and welcoming. Dr. Patterson is extremely knowledgeable and current on the latest therapies. I respect her, trust her, and would not go anywhere else! read more

I went here around February for an abnormal period. I ended up having a trans vaginal, a biopsy, a bladder scan and a urethra dilation! She asked me if I had PCOS and I told her no, but my Doc in Germany said I might want to be tested for it. She told me my blood tests came back normal and then put me on Metformin for PCOS. When I asked her if I really had that she said yeah and started talking into her recorder like I wasn't there stating that my Doc in Germany had diagnosed me and when I corrected her she just continued with her recorder. Found out with a different health issue that the Metformin had been dropping my blood sugar too low and I was pulled off it. I have felt so much better after I stopped taking it. I have no idea why I needed the bladder scans or urethra dilation. The staff is hot and cold. Dr. Patterson is like a mad scientist, talking to you, but not really talking to you. I will never go here again. I will wait a month to see Dr. Silva. read more

I don't have too much to say other than I am very grateful to dr. Patterson and her staff who helped me handle a very difficult moment. Her office is clean and tasteful. Dr Patterson immediately made me feel comfortable and I am not an easy patient. Her staff is professional, polite, and uplifting. Thank you dr. Patterson and team. read more
