Iam so blessed to have had Dr. Hawkins as my surgeon for many reasons! Not only was she an…read moreefficient & competent surgeon, but her bedside manner is impeccable! I couldn't have possibly had a more proficient surgeon had I dreamed one up! Lol. I'm one of those people who really research anyone who is going to be my medical professional. Simply because you only have one life, & you want the best to work with & on you. Plus, i have to be extra thorough in screening doctors because I am a transgender male. It can be very difficult to find good medical care. Someone who isn't going to treat you like an experiment or a mental case. So, you can imagine my excitement when i discovered Dr. Hawkins! My first initial visit with Dr. Hawkins was great. She took me to her office, got to know me, & asked me many questions about what i had been going through. She presented me with options I had not thought of, & gave me some new information that I had not considered. She checked me out, & I was on my way. Days later my body went haywire!!!! It was a nightmare! I was pouring blood, & having huge blood clots. Which had happened once before. I had to change pads & tampons every 30 mins to an hour. I was experiencing difficulty even getting through the day. So, i kept in contact with her medical assistant Jessica. Jessica & Dr. Hawkins make a superb team! Jessica went above & beyond her call of duty. Any time I called her, she was so calm & reassuring! She helped me any way she could! One of the difficult parts about this whole process was that my uterus had literally grown as if i was carrying a baby. It was about 9 inches long. It was up in my abdomen. I had to go to the hospital at least 3 times, & one of those times was an overnight stay that I had to receive a blood transfusion. My leg & foot had almost doubled in size. I went to my podiatrist, & she referred me to a vascular doctor. He discovered I had multiple blood clots in both legs. My uterus was literally tearing my body apart. A year earlier I had been seeing a urologist. My uterus was causing the problem with my bladder. Dr. Hawkins had discovered that my uterus was so large that it was not only crushing my bladder, but sitting on a large vein or vessel (can't remember which) in which was causing the blood clots because the blood couldn't flow properly to my legs. Consequently, I had to have an IVC filter put in to even have the surgery. I had already had one pulmonary embolism due to the blood clots. Dr. Hawkins even admitted to me that this may be a little bit more difficult then she expected. She never gave up though. She consulted with an oncologist that specialized in difficult situations like this. She did her homework. Once I was able to finally have my surgery I was overjoyed!!!! Finally all my agony was about to be over! The day of the surgery Dr. Hawkins reassured me that everything would be fine. My surgery went spectacular. No problems during or after. Once I was okay, she even came to see me on her own personal time. I felt very taken care of by her & her team. Healing went extremely well. My incision is barely visible. My girlfriend, a nurse, even said it looked like artwork. Clean, thin, & beautiful. If you're looking for a surgeon that is intelligent, knowledgeable, & personable do yourself a favor & go to Dr. Hawkins! Best decision of my life!

Dr. Nidhi De really surprised by her lack of concern for my post operative care. When I began…read moreexperiencing issues days after an invasive surgery the office staff gave me a hard time about requesting to be seen in person prior to a six week follow up visit. They were rude and argumentative even after I thoroughly explained what had been happening with my body. This happened not once but twice. The second time was in front of my primary doctor who called to try to get me seen after I explained what had been happening. By this time I had even been in the ER in which Dr. De did not come to see me there while at the hospital and I was still given a difficult time to be seen in person. When I was able to be seen by Dr. De she was not familiar with my chart which was evident by the questions that she asked. She even gave contradicting information from what she had previously said on a televisit call about a procedure performed during surgery. Even on the six week follow up visit, I expressed concerns about what I was continuing to experience. The symptoms progressed even after a test was ordered but I received no direction or guidance on what I could be experiencing and how to manage it. I had to send multiple messages in the portal before she would even address the issue. It was a stressful and terrible experience with FPWCG and I do not recommend Dr. De to anyone after everything that I have endured which is far beyond what is included in this review.

This office is a little bigger than the Dunwoody location but just as nice. I don't come here too often since the other location is closer to my home. The staff here is pretty friendly..

They didn't like me seeing another provider so they dropped me at 34 weeks. Very disappointed as they should have told me this from the beginning. Very rude. They asked that I write them a letter that I decided to seek care elsewhere which I refused so they immediately deleted my patient account. The only person they allowed me to talk to was some woman named Deneen. No provider ever followed up with me. Go elsewhere! The response that Dr Moore left was that they had told me to go somewhere else which is NOT TRUE! I told them I'd like to see another OBGYN that offered TOLAC/VBAC so that I had the option to have either. See the other bad review about this office and dealing with Dr. Moore and his wife Deneen left 7 months ago. Funny thing is...I only saw Dr Moore once. The Doctor I was actually seeing was Dr Bryan Jewell and we had this discussion with him also. I wanted to leave my options open and apparently don't like that!!! Also, they asked I leave...and eventually dropped me!!! I did not leave! They refused to see me. I didn't to leave because as I stated before...I wanted to leave the option open and have my c section with them in case it was necessary. Funny how they tried asked me to write them a letter stating I wanted to discontinue seeing them when that wasn't the case at all actually!!! So now I know he's a liar as well See the attached picture for proof they were lying about me "choosing" to have leave the practice His response makes me ill. I know businesses don't like bad reviews but to lie and be a doctor is inexcusable in my opinion. And the statement my review isn't valid...lol. So anyone that receives poor medical attention or is asked to leave doesn't have a valid review? Funny!

I chose this provider because of reviews and I had personal friends who used her, but it ended up…read morebeing one of the biggest regrets I've ever had. I started visiting the practice with my second pregnancy after switching from Kaiser over to another insurance provider. This practice shares on call shifts with another OBGYN practice, unfortunately I ended up with one of their doctors I was forced to have a c-section although I had no issues with my labor. It was very late at night and the doctor was clearly very tired, and wanting to sleep. I complained every day about extreme pain and asked to see her on multiple occasions, she showed up on day 5 post surgery and told me to take morphine - said it would have little to no effect on baby while breastfeeding. I chose not to take the risk. She never looked at my incision. The pain continued, I followed up with her in the office less than one week later because my pain was 10/10 and my incision was really bothering me. Again she dismissed the pain by saying it was normal and pushed morphine on me - I declined. They never checked my temperature, blood pressure, or urine during that visit. A few hours later my blood pressure and temperature spiked, concerned about my well being I left my baby and went to the ER. ER doc ran some imaging and said I had a severe infection that had spread across my lower and upper abdomen, this would've been visible to any doctor who had taken a look at my incision. As a parent and doctor, he said he would've never been okay with his own wife breastfeeding an infant while taking morphine. I received great treatment from him, and he actually called me on 3 different occasions to see how I was doing! My baby's pediatrician even called twice to make sure I was recovering okay.

One of the things I like best…read moreabout her is that she never talks down to me or makes me feel stupid if I ask a silly question. She seems to know when I need more explanation and when a quick answer is appropriate. She delivered my daughter and it was the smoothest, most enjoyable (all things considered) experience I could have asked for. Sure, I've waited a couple of times, but nothing really excessive. I'm the first person to switch practices when the wait times get to be crazy, but that hasn't been my experience here at all. I also tend to go for the early morning appointments to minimize waiting, because - let's be real here - babies don't usually schedule their births, so chances are you'll have to wait a time or two, and that chance increases as the day goes on. I met Dr. Anthony a few times while pregnant with my daughter and she seemed really nice. I didn't get a chance to get to know her, but her energy was calming and I liked that a lot. The location - across from Emory Johns Creek hospital - is convenient and it's easy to find parking. I'm not sure if they are affiliated with any other hospitals.

After recently relocating to Georgia, I have been an obgyn patient here for the last 6 months,…read moreattending over 6-7 prenatal appointments. I am writing this review based on my comparable experience after switching to another provider around 36 weeks, so that expectant parents know what to expect. 1. Be prepared for wait times that can be seriously frustrating. Regardless of the day, time, or which doctor I saw, the wait was consistently over an hour, sometimes even pushing 2 hours for the entire visit. The actual time with the OB-GYN was barely 5 minutes. I understand obgyns are busy, but it's about time they improved their time management or focused more on their existing patients rather than taking on more new ones. I have been dreading their wait times, which often leads to missing work and uncomfortable hours in a chair, causing back pain, which is not fun in the third trimester. On top of this, nobody in this practice, including doctors, has acknowledged or been apologetic even once for their ridiculously long wait times. 2. Appointments with Dr. Anthony always seem rushed, like she's in a race to see all the patients. She sometimes comes across as rude/dismissive and doesn't really give enough time to address my concerns. The OB is usually in and out within 3-5 minutes. I saw Dr. Chua only once and do not have much experience to comment on my experience with her. 3. There is no online scheduling or a proper messaging system/nurse line here to reach for emergency. The lab and test results are all handled through a call, and there is no way to view the results unless you request a printout on the visit. It's a very old-school system, and most of the time, the front desk staff doesn't have a clue about how things work. I once asked if there was a nurse line or an after-hours support, and to my surprise, the front desk said there was nothing like that. Much later when I asked again, Dr. Chua confirmed there is an on-call number to reach the obgyn directly. In another instance, I called the front desk to reach the doctor's assistant when I was having a terrible sinus issue while 6 months pregnant, to get some pregnancy-safe medication recommendations, only to be cut down by the front desk in a rude way, mentioning "we don't treat sinus." 4. Brace yourself for a bit of a headache. They want the patients to prepay for the entire labor out-of-pocket costs around the 28-week mark. It's a real hassle, especially if you end up having to deal with refunds post-birth because your deductible is reached before delivery. While I understand this is a norm in some clinics, I expected they should talk about it in the first appointment. I didn't come across this with my previous pregnancy provider, so this got me surprised. Now that I have transferred, I am still waiting for the refund of the money they charged me for labor already. I am glad I switched from here for an overall positive and hassle-free experience with another provider while receiving good care. I would not recommend this place to any mothers who value time, customer service, and birth empowerment.

When I started looking at fertility clinics I researched multiple, specifically looking at doctors…read moreand their bios. I really wanted a female doctor and found myself gravitating to Dr.Pavna Brahma. When I first found her, she was at RBA and after my first consult, I knew I wanted her to be my doctor. Dr.Brahma is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, kind and informative. I came with a list of questions and she graciously answered all of them and even diagrammed parts that were extra complicated. She never made me feel rushed, or stupid and spent the time that was needed to ensure I was comfortable. I went through my first egg retrieval with her, which netted out to one healthy embryo (after blastocyst and PGS testing). As I was going through my second retrieval, I found out Dr.Brahma had left RBA and I was given a different male doctor (Dr.Toledo). I was saddened to hear the news of her departure and nobody would tell me where she went. Dr.Toledo helped me finish out Dr.Brahmas protocol, which resulted in 4 healthy embryos. I ended up doing two transfers with Dr.Toledo, which unfortunately resulted in two failed transfers. Dr.Toledo was not able to give me good guidance on what went wrong or provide a solid plan going forward, so I went looking for a second opinion. Coincidentally, my OBGYN, recommended Dr.Brahma who I found out was at Shady Grove. I got a copy of medical records and went to Shady Grove to visit Dr.Brahma. When she saw us, she immediately embraced us, and was so welcoming, it felt like seeing an old friend. She glanced through our records and was immediately able to pinpoint areas for improvement. We ended up transferring our remaining embryos to Shady Grove and after my first transfer back with Dr.Brahma, I got pregnant. Unfortunately, it didn't progress beyond 5 weeks because the embryo quality was too low. We continued to work with Dr.Brahma and about 9 months later, I was pregnant again and this time, we made it past 6 weeks, then 8 weeks and eventually graduated from Shady Grove and released to my OBGYN. I'm currently 18 weeks pregnant and I know I wouldn't be here without Dr.Brahma. She was our saving grace. She was always very honest and open with us about our options, supported us throughout and always came to the table with a strong plan. She never let me lose faith and my husband and I firmly believe she is one of the best fertility specialists in the country. We would recommend her to anyone trying to conceive. She has every quality you would want in a doctor: empathetic, smart, well researched, incredible bedside manner, great communicator, thoughtful and thorough. Our journey to parenthood is because of her.

I cannot recommend Shady Grove Fertility after my experience with Dr. Pavna Brahma and the complete…read morelack of accountability from SGF leadership afterward. I underwent three egg retrievals and spent more than $37,000 out of pocket, with suboptimal results. While I fully understand that fertility treatment comes with no guarantees, my concerns are about the management of my care. I have known, manageable--and disclosed--hypothyroidism, yet my thyroid was not monitored throughout any of my treatment. Thyroid function and TSH are particularly important considerations in fertility care, which makes this oversight especially concerning. During what was supposed to be my fourth retrieval, an unrelated appointment found my TSH significantly elevated at 6.78. What followed was contradictory guidance from the care team, including confusion over whether SGF's TSH threshold of 2.5 even applied to my retrieval. I ultimately stopped treatment based on their guidance and was left with more than $3,000 in medication costs. When I raised my concerns with Dr. Brahma, I was extremely disappointed by her response and what I felt was a complete lack of accountability, understanding, or willingness to work toward a solution. Even more troubling was SGF leadership's lack of response. I spent months trying to resolve this privately. After briefly speaking with administration, I was assured my complaint would be addressed. When I heard nothing, I repeatedly followed up, including six separate voicemails and portal messages. Communication completely stopped. Zero follow up. Zero acknowledgement. I never received further outreach or any attempt at a meaningful resolution. I work in healthcare operations and I find this completely inexcusable. Failing to follow up on a serious patient complaint despite repeated attempts by the patient to resolve it is both unbelievable and deeply disappointing. After three retrievals, $37,000+, serious concerns about my care under Dr. Brahma, six unanswered calls, months of escalation, and ultimately no resolution, I have zero trust in Shady Grove Fertility and strongly encourage prospective patients to look elsewhere.
