Fantastic woman's clinic in Madison. I have been a patient for years. The staff is kind, caring and really listens. read more

See all

I have been a patient of MWH since the day the clinic opened (I followed my OB from her previous clinic). I have received amazing care of all of the staff at this clinic. The nurses and the docs spend a great deal of time answering my questions and concerns and also chatting about life from time to time. I had PTSD from my first birth (out of state) and the OBs at MWH have been wonderful helping me with my subsequent pregnancies/births. I never felt pressured to have repeat C-sections and was supported when I wanted to have a VBAC. I use this clinic for my PCP as well and glad that I can get in very quickly with the more everyday issues and the fact they have their on lab on site is great. read more

I absolutely love Madison Women's Health. This was the OBGYN office I went to during the course of my pregnancy. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Sharma (my OBGYN during my pregnancy) and Dr. Yanke (the OBGYN who helped with my delivery). Both were extremely professional, knowledgeable, and kind. The phone line outside of office hours was super helpful and very responsive. There was one night that I could not feel the baby kick and they quickly sent me to the hospital (no problems luckily). Dr. Yanke and her residents did such a great job with my C-section that I was driving within a week of the procedure and back to full speed within one month. I also can barely even see my scar. The clinic itself is just beautiful. I found the waiting area to be very comfortable and soothing. My only regret is that I moved and will have to find a new OBGYN for my next pregnancy. I would highly recommend Drs. Sharma and Yanke. read more

While all the providers at Madison Women's Health are wonderful, Leslie Smith, the certified nurse midwife is my favorite and the biggest asset to the clinic. The fact that MWH had a midwife as part of their clinic was a big reason I chose MWH when I got pregnant with my first baby. All pregnancies can be scary and anxiety provoking but first pregnancies are especially so. Leslie put me to ease at every appointment and took the time to answer my questions and make me as comfortable as possible. I was so disappointed that she wasn't on call at the hospital the day I went into labor as I know she would have been the best support and labor coach. Even after I had my baby, Leslie has made it known that she is there for me and is always willing to help. She truly cares about her patients and I will no doubt see her again for my next pregnancy! read more

Do your self a favor and choose this clinic as your clinic! There are not enough words to explain how much I'm happy I found this place and how much I'm thankful for everything and everybody there. My doctor (Dr. SAMPLE) was so patient to all my fears, explain everything until I fully understand and answer all my questions (even though they were sometimes stupid- first pregnancy questions :)). She was perfect for my needs! Just seeing her smile made me feel that I'm in good hands! And she is not the only one who is great there.. also the ultrasound technician was so nice to us (every week!). Was a pleasure to come every time! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

They're idiots. I was prescribed medication with biological side effects that adversely affected another health issue, and was advised to change my diet by including cheese, which contains a massive amount of salt, and is also very bad for what's really a problem for me. Stay away unless you are healthy and your needs are superficial. Nearly hospitalized by taking their advice!!!! So terrible!!! Furthermore, they were trying to vaccinate me in duplicate! I was tested for the antibodies for my employment! Just terrible!!!! read more

Other than the slightly strange location (in an office building, so you're occasionally riding up to your OB/GYN appointment with a bunch of twentysomethings coming back from their lunch breaks), this office is gorgeous. Beautiful, new, lovely view. And most importantly, an experienced, knowledgeable, friendly group of female RN's and physicians dedicated to women's health. Every experience I've had here, from appointments to lab work, has been positive. read more

Madison Women's Health is an excellent medical practice. The office is clean, modern, and appealing. The staff, from receptionists to doctors and nurses, are friendly and accommodating. I've never felt rushed during appointments, and the doctor will always answer all of my questions. The nurses have gone out of their way to accommodate a slew of outside blood work that I needed to have done in the MWH lab. Also, don't forgot about the expanded care offerings at MWH--you can go here for routine care and not just for gynecological issues. read more

Madison Women's Health is where many area physicians go for their care (my primary care physician is affiliated with a different local health care group but still recommended Madison Women's Health). I can personally recommend Dr. Kate Sample and Dr. Erin Schoenecker. As for nuts-and-bolts: Excellent physicians, nurses, and support staff. Welcoming reception (love their fireplace and tea!) with a gorgeous view. Convenient on-site blood draws and ultrasounds. read more

I've had variable experiences with Madison Women's Health. The clinic was originally recommended to me by a friend who really loves her OB/GYN. My friend has had 3 children in the time that she has been with the clinic, so I took her advice and made an appointment. A few pros first--I find the office to be very nice--modern, clean, and beautiful. I also like that this is a female-owned and opperated clinic. My friend's doctor was not accepting new patients at the time and I was assigned a different doctor. I've seen her for about 4 years at yearly appointments and my impressions are luke warm. When I expressed my intent to start trying to have a family last year, I didn't get much input or advice except for her to hand me a pamplet on Pregnancy Planning and to say "good luck." I had to initiate the conversation about prenatal vitamins and her response was that I didn't really need to start taking them until I actually got pregnant. That whole scenario and her advice didn't sit well with me because it was in contrast to what I was reading and hearing from other women (including friends who are nurses and doctors). However, as I understand that there can be different opinions on such matters, I was willing and able to take all information available to me to make a decision on the approach I was most comfortable with--but the whole situation made me feel isolated in the decision and without sound advice from my physician. My main frustration and issue with this clinic is that I can't get an appointment for 3 months each time I call. I find the clinic administrators to be condensending in their communication style and unapologetic about the lack of availability. Most recently, I reached out for advice related to an upcoming trip to the Carribean (Zika virus concern) and was told that no one could talk to me for 2-3 months--full stop, not even the offer of a phone call. So, again, I feel like I am on my own in my health care decisions. I am also frustrated that my Primary Care Physician, who is an OB/GYN, will not see me for important Primary Care issues--which I've requested exactly twice in 4 years time. I think that shuffling patients around to a bunch of different doctors and NPs leads to inconsistency in care. I'd really like a doctor who knows me. This may be a trend in health care in the US. And, I have no doubt that MWH is comparably good clinic in the grand scheme of things...but it makes me feel like this clinic is too large and way too impersonnal. My experience has been "meh" so I can't rate them high. read more

Couldn't get past the admin staff. Hung up on me and wouldn't give me paperwork I needed to give them. No opinion of medical staff. read more

I have been a patient at this clinic since Dr. Kate Sample left Associated Physicians. The clinic, staff and physicians are the best in the Madison area. I recently moved to Pewaukee but will continue to see Dr. Sample for all my gynecological needs. I don't think I could find a group of physicians or clinic in the Milwaukee area that would come close to the quality and comfort I feel at Madison Women's Health. read more

I've switched doctors here twice, and now I'm looking to leave altogether. Neither doctor has been enthusiastic about my care, and my current doctor has failed to follow up with requested information. When the front desk failed to schedule follow-up appointments, I was blamed and treated like a child for not having visited sooner. Overall the facility is nice, clean and inviting, but there is way more to healthcare than just a pretty package. I want my doctor to be interested in me personally, invested in seeing me through pregnancy healthfully, and someone who listens carefully and does all they can to get me requested information. This practice's c-section rate is also extremely high - 1/4 of all pregnancies are delivered via c-section by physicians at this practice. read more

This office is great! They call you back, tehy make sure you have all of the answers and are there for you for both your physical care as well as emotionally during women's health issues. I couldn't have had a better facility to treat me during my pregnancy, if I would not have moved, we'd still be tehre today. read more

Dr. Katherine Sample of Madison Women's Health delivered our son on 11/6/2010 and fractured his skull, killing him almost instantly. She has devastated our family and I would advise everyone to stay far, far away from her in particular. Hopefully this post helps save some lives... read more

Great doctors, not so great nurses. Doctors are great at actually listening to patients and helping keep me healthy. The receptionists are also very kind and helpful. Most of the nurses I've dealt with are extremely rude and careless. If it weren't for the rude nursing staff I would've given 5 stars. read more

I am a physician myself and I can say without any hesitation that this is a very well run practice with excellent physicians and nurses. I put my trust in them completely and have been very happy with the care I have received here. read more

My first experience at Madison Women's Health was pretty good. The doctor seemed friendly and informative. I treated here for a total of one year. I had a successful surgery within the first few months. However, during the consult I made it clear verbally and in writing that I didn't want anyone else besides the doctor to be operating on me (no med students). Not long after I was wheeled into the operating room a med student confronted me and asked for my permission to assist during surgery. My doctor was not in the operating room yet. I felt vulnerable and pressured to say yes. I was very frustrated because I had already gone through this with the doctor. Looking back I was mad at myself for not being more assertive and standing up for myself. I guess it can be hard to do while lying flat on your back in an operating gown. Towards the end of my time at Madison Women's Health a number of new health issues came up that resulted in irregular test results and additional tests being ordered. They had no problem scheduling me for additional tests, but refused to schedule any follow up appointment for me to discuss what was going on and what the test results meant. I was told that if these were necessary (after getting test results) they'd be sure to fit me in. I made five (5) separate requests to schedule with the doctor, both in person and on the phone, and was turned down every time both by the nurse and scheduling staff. Despite asking for an appointment five different times, the only response I received was a phone call from the nurse who was very clearly not familiar with my file. Finally, after the five requests over three weeks, I was told to schedule with a P.A. for a procedure that I was never allowed to discuss with the doctor in the first place. They wanted me to take meds hours before the procedure for something I didn't know if I would allow to happen, but this was the only way to come in and ask all my questions. Still, it wasn't with my doctor. I felt this was a horrible treatment plan and was not comfortable moving forward. Needless to say, I am now treating at a different facility and am much happier. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! My first visit to this place today. The doctor, nurses, receptionists, lab people all were incredible! Super friendly, helpful and caring. No waiting whatsoever. Very high tech with their medical records and lab results available online. Also, this was practically the nicest building I've ever been in. There is a fireplace in the waiting room, for example. read more

I went to my first appt with Dr. Weidel today who was wonderful. I highly recommend her. She is very friendly and informative.
