    I have suffered for years with interstitial self cystitis, which was making my sleep very difficult…read moreand affecting my daily life. Finally, my urologist suggested that I see Dr. Wallace for possible hormone replacement. It's now been four months and I could not be happier with Dr. Wallace or her staff. Dr. Wallace is very insightful and she really listens and she looks at the whole body. I am a retired registered nurse and I would encourage anyone to seek treatment from Dr. Wallace. Regarding the negative comments about the staff; it's a very busy office and I find them very efficient and pleasant to deal with.

    Stay away -- BAIT AND SWITCH! I NEVER write reviews - but…read morethis is worth it. I called and got the quote of $400 for a pellet. I called back to verify that it was a total of $400, because a friend felt that was low. They said that it was total $400 out the door. To my surprise, I am being billed another $250. I called and told them I had verified. After not getting a call back, I called again. The office manager called me back and after I explained the situation, she said that they had made a mistake "because they are only human", but there was nothing they could do about the extra bill. I reiterated what she said to me (they made a mistake but they wouldn't fix the mistake) and she said "this is the medical profession, not retail. We don't fix things in the medical profession". Then she proceeded to tell me that I don't have to pay it, but that they will just send it to collections. She had a raised voice, and was interrupting me every time I tried to say anything and was 100% unprofessional. She sounded like she was in her 30's without much life experience. Dr. Wallace seemed knowledgeable and fine. (When she inserted the pellet, I wasn't numbed all the way, but she immediately fixed it and it was a fine experience.) Ultimately, I don't think the pellet is rocket science - you cut, insert and bandage it. But since they are expensive, the price took me to Dr. Wallace. The truth is - I would have gone to Dr. Wallace for the next 10+ years for a pellet. But her receptionist was rude and defensive, I never got a return call on my first inquisition, and her office manager was ready to fight with me as soon as she did call. I won't be returning. And I have a sister, mother-in-law and sister-in-law who have already made appointments with her. Plus several others who I have given her name to. Pretty sure not one of them will be going....because I told them it was only $400! Dr. Wallace - your staff is a disservice to you. Customer service is still essential! I did my due diligence, was wronged, and nothing was rectified. I'm not into the bait and switch - that is a used-car lot move!

    I had the pleasure of being under the care of Dr Tanamai during my pregnancy. Before establishing…read morecare, I did my homework & searched high & low on doctors in the area. I was very picky & what really made me choose Dr. Tanamai was how she mentioned in her memorialcare video how child birth is a natural process & she doesn't do anything magical on her end, & acts more like a coach on the sidelines. I liked how she humble she comes across on her video. I do not like doctors usually, but during my 9 month span & all the appointments, I can say she really listened to my needs. I can be a bit of a diva but she never made me feel unheard or weird for my preferences. She also never pressured me into anything, because I stood my ground on certain practices & I ended up getting my way which I appreciated - & I didn't have to fight for it either. I was very disappointed in the fact she couldn't deliver my baby - since he came after her working hours Friday (after midnight). My only complaint & maybe if she reads this review, is the next baby I would like to put a special request to deliver baby #2 whenever that may happen. I will never forget one appointment where she was more chatty than usual & I really liked that - it felt like I was talking to an old friend. We were talking non medical & it was very refreshing. I wish every appointment could of been like that but I understand the l&d field is very chaotic. I would recommend Dr. Tanamai to anyone looking to establish care for pregnancy or for an obgyn.

    I had a frightening experience during my first pregnancy under this doctor's care that has stayed…read morewith me for years. It took me three years to feel ready to write this review. Near the end of my pregnancy, I developed symptoms commonly associated with preeclampsia, including severe swelling, persistent headaches, and blurry vision. I raised these concerns during an office visit and in a message, specifically stating that I was worried about preeclampsia. I was told that I was young and that these were normal pregnancy symptoms. No additional testing was ordered. After two subsequent pregnancies with a different OB, I learned these symptoms should have been taken more seriously. At minimum, I believe my appointment should have been moved up, my urine protein checked, and home blood pressure monitoring recommended. As a first-time mother, I trusted her judgment and was not seen again for about two and a half weeks. At my next appointment, she was out of the country, so another physician saw me. That doctor immediately checked my blood pressure and urine. My blood pressure was dangerously high and my urine showed extremely elevated protein levels. I was sent directly to Labor & Delivery and delivered my baby a month early due to severe preeclampsia. I cannot know whether earlier evaluation would have changed the outcome, but I do know that I felt unheard when I raised legitimate concerns. The experience was traumatic for me and my family. I am sharing this review in the hope that it encourages others to advocate for themselves and seek a second opinion if their concerns are dismissed. Seeing similar experiences in other reviews is one reason I felt compelled to share mine.

    I want to start by saying that I genuinely empathize with in-network physicians right now. The…read moreadministrative burden, insurance pressures, and volume expectations placed on doctors are enormous, and I don't doubt that Dr. Baginski works very hard. That said, my experience was that the practice feels overextended to the point where patient care suffers. Despite having a large staff, my visits with Dr. Baginski were extremely brief (on the order of a few minutes), and there was little opportunity to ask questions, discuss the full clinical picture, or feel heard. I often felt like decisions were being made at me rather than with me. In my case, I was dealing with a complex situation involving abnormal uterine bleeding, iron-deficiency anemia, and multiple downstream symptoms. I was hoping for a more comprehensive, investigative approach, but the pace of the visit made that difficult. When care is rushed at that level, it's hard for patients to feel confident that all contributing factors are being thoughtfully considered. I imagine this practice may have grown very popular over time, which speaks to Dr. Baginski's reputation and experience. Unfortunately, it now feels like the volume may be too high to allow for the kind of careful, patient-centered care that complex cases require. This may be a good fit for patients with straightforward needs who are comfortable with a very fast-moving, high-throughput model. For patients with more complicated or evolving issues who need time, discussion, and a holistic approach, it may not be the right match.

She is the most dedicated OB I ever met! Kind, caring, genuine, & overall the best. She is private practice...SHE TAKES HER TIME. She is patient. She is through. I trust her. And she delivers most of her babies! Her caring staff is so nice. Her front desk will take care of you. I remember having to do a transfer of care and she put me at ease and told me not worry about it and that she will get all the documents she will need from my previous doctor. Her nurse. Nurse Patti! She is the sweetest nurse ever... As she greets you to come in for weigh in and vitals... she truly listens to you and make you feel at ease... Because I had to deliver earlier than expected... I wasn't ready. My mom was out of town. My husband was scheduled for a promotional interview. I broke down and cried!!! And I requested her nurse to be at my delivery. And she didn't even hesitate. She immediately said Yes and gave me a hug and told me she will be there for me. I highly recommend Dr.Robinson! She will take care of you and so will her staff. Very thankful to have her!!! My family is blessed to have her!!!

She delivered my second baby after my experience with another Dr. in the area was horrible delivering my first. Dr. Robinson stayed in the room with me until the baby was ready to be born and made me feel so comfortable. If you are looking for a caring Doctor who doesn't make you feel like you're just another patient, Dr. Robinson is the Doctor for you.

Was supposed to be seen by a provider today at 3pm but learned at 11am that the specific provider does not see new patients after 2:30pm. This was rather frustrating since I had booked this appointment weeks out, completed the paperwork online, and took off work for the appointment. I also received a handful of texts and emails leading up to the appointment. Wish this was caught sooner. I know there are 20+ providers at OCWG and each one works different schedules so there will be room for error with scheduling but I wish the system was set up differently to avoid this issue. -- Review separate from the scheduling mishap: The person I worked with when I first scheduled the appointment weeks ago and the other person today that helped me reschedule were helpful and had professional phone demeanor. I like how many of the providers have video bios on their website.
