I was initially hesitant to write this review, but after receiving follow-up emails from Thrive…read moreasking for feedback, I felt it was important to share my experience. I've been dealing with hormonal imbalance for the past four months. I'm currently with Kaiser and have seen nine different doctors, most of whom suggested anti-anxiety or antidepressant medication. However, I knew something deeper was going on. What I initially thought were panic attacks at night turned out to be hot flashes. I often felt dismissed and unheard, which was incredibly frustrating. My wife helped me research other options, and that's when we found Thrive. After reading so many positive reviews, I felt hopeful that I had finally found a place where I would be seen and heard. My first visit with the doctor was positive. She listened to my concerns and ordered bloodwork. However, after completing my labs, I had difficulty getting a follow-up appointment. My calls were not returned, and I eventually had to use the emergency text number just to get a response. I was told I had a phone appointment scheduled at 11 AM, but I never received a call. When I followed up, they offered me an in-person appointment later that day, which I accepted. During that visit, the doctor reviewed my labs and told me a pharmacist would contact me the next day to start testosterone treatment. Unfortunately, I never received that call. I want to be clear that I'm not trying to be difficult, but dealing with hormonal issues has significantly impacted my quality of life. I've been experiencing sleepless nights, restlessness, irritability, bladder issues, and an overall sense that I'm not functioning at my best. Given that this is an out-of-pocket service, the lack of communication has been extremely frustrating. I've since called and emailed multiple times without any response. Additionally, when you call their office, it goes straight to a generic voicemail that doesn't clearly identify the business, and messages are not returned. It feels like you have to constantly follow up just to get basic communication and even then, responses are inconsistent. I also want to add that I typically don't write reviews like this. However, if you are struggling the way I have been, I wouldn't want another woman to go through what I've experienced. I truly believe women should support one another and take each other's concerns seriously, and unfortunately, that has not been my experience here.

She is incredibly kind, understanding and happy to help. She can move through appointments quickly, but if you have a list of questions, she's more than happy to go through them with you. She is also calm and positive during delivery. Once she arrived at the hospital, she jumps right in, having great relationships with the hospital staff, and calmly getting you ready to push. I have zero complaints with her quality of care. My only one call out would be the staff - I think at times it can be hard to call in/get the help you might need if you're not in the office. She's got a heavy patient load, so her staff is essential to moving folks through and sometimes you can get stuck waiting for a call back or playing phone tag. If Im lucky enough to have another baby I'll be seeing Dr. Tamayo and have recommended her to all of my close friends.

The c-section she preformed and her instructions for post op recovery were perfect and made my recovery easy. So much so I started recommending c-sections because I had such a great experience. I was absolutely GUTTED to find out what Adventist did and will follow her anywhere she goes if she continues to practice. At my 6 week appointment, I told her I was coming back for my second pregnancy so she shouldn't and couldn't retire. She laughed it off and said she wasn't planning on it so fingers crossed!

Dr Welebir is amazing. I had my first patient appt with him after seeing numerous OBs that never…read morereally explained much of anything to me. To start off, I have social anxiety & im often not able to explain or elaborate as eloquently as I'd like. My mind often goes blank when speaking to someone. As such, I very often leave appointments regretting how much I 'didn't' say bc I was too focused on breathing normal and not getting nervous. Because of this, a lot of doctors don't think I'm in excruciating pain, or it's not as severe since I'm not begging for help or showing much of any emotion. But trust me, my pain is excruciating..... I just struggle to explain it or show emotion to strangers. During my appt he asked all my symptoms.. I didn't get to fully emphasize the debilitating cramps / pain I experience every month (due to my inability to communicate eloquently). But that didn't matter with Dr welebir because All I had to say was "yes I feel pain" for him to take me serious without me having to over explain myself. For that, I'm very thankful. Since I do struggle to explain my symptoms and what I feel; I rarely leave appointments feeling confident that a doctor understood or believes me.. but today I did, even without over explaining myself. On top of that, I can't even begin to explain how detailed he is with explaining various symptoms & the full break down that other doctors fail to do.

She then proceeded to tell me I didn't understand the female reproductive system and told me I needed to be on oral birth control. She ignored me when I explained why for my mental health that was no longer an option for me. This was all very disappointing coming from a young woman.. if this were someone of a previous generation or a man it would have still be upsetting, but more expected. I have never left a review of any business before..but I don't want another woman going to her and having a similar experience, especially given the vulnerable nature of her specialty.

He's 13 what's the difference with someone leaving and coming back saying they are 14? Miranda from the front desk said for me to call the nurse and if the nurse says yes that he can go up. Call the nurse she said yes and then miranda changed in the front said that she needs her supervisor approval better. So of course they said no. Why ask me to call the nurse and see if they say yes to then ask for someone else? Where is the sympathy of this hospital? I feel if you're 10+ you should be able to see your dad there. The security stepped in and said "well what if he's sick and brings it to all the patients" like what if I'm sick too? You're letting me in? Is he not going to carry anything if he's 14? The age policy needs to change to at least 12! A 12 year old knows about their dad not being home and are well aware why! The girl Miranda at the front desk had attitude too! My husband walked down because they can't stop him to see his son. But we don't get why the security is there following him. If I go back tomorrow and say he's 14 they said they would let him in. Make it make sense! It's ridiculous! This hospital has no sympathy towards families.

However, her office staff are slow to respond and when you do get someone on the phone they are condescending and unhelpful. I had an extremely hard time confirming my initial appointment. Most doctors offices these days send out reminders via email or text at least a week in advance of your appointment. When I did not receive a confirmation or reminder I reached out to the office by phone and email multiple times and no one responded to my emails or voicemails. I did not want to take time off of work for an appointment that wasn't confirmed and when I finally got someone on the phone I could practically feel her rolling her eyes at me as she told me they only confirm the day before. Okay, fine, but they could have emailed me back or called me back to answer my question instead of ignoring it for a week. Then I was billed three times for the same amount over the course of three months after I had already paid the bill. When I called the office to ask why my check hadn't been cashed and I was still being billed, the staff answering the phones was incredibly rude and told me to "take a breath" after I calmly explained my issue. I had already left a voicemail about the issue a few days before and no one called me back.
