Dr. Helbig has resigned from PAMF/ Sutter. This is a terrible loss for my wife and I, since she…read morewas our primary care doctor for several years, one of the very best doctors we have ever had. She was careful, caring, concerned and sucessful and diagnosing and treating our many and severe health issues. We will miss her.

I am so surprised by the above reviews as they run completely counter to my experience. Having…read morespent 20+ years seeing doctors of varying specialties, I will say that Dr. Helbig is my greatest blessing. Being new to my area, I had to reestablish care with a dozen new docs. Needing a PCP, I fortunately found Dr. Helbig. She listened carefully, compassionately and with great empathy to my issues. She did not just pass me off to someone else. She is also one of the few doctors who actually read my chart and carefully considered a course of action for EVERY issue I have presented to her. PAMF and Santa Cruz County would suffer an enormous loss to lose Dr. Helbig. She is one of the remaining docs who cares about the people she sees. It doesn't feel like she hits the start button of the stopwatch the minute she walks into the room to stay within the insurance company mandated time limit for a visit. I feel she is completely present and that she takes me and my health concerns seriously. I would highly recommend Dr. Helbig for anyone seeking "old time" medical care.

I saw Zenker in July of 2022 because my regular practitioner was not avail. (later learned that she…read morewas out for a brief period due to contracting COVID). It was supposed to be a routine checkup, but I found out that I was pregnant in the week prior to coming in. I was unsure whether or not I wanted to keep the fetus for various reasons including that I had recently contracted COVID. Zenker told me with certainty that COVID does not effect fetuses, which is just a wild claim considering this is 2 years out from initial outbreak and no one has a clue what the range of effects of COVID are. Zenker immediately assumed that I wanted her input on whether or not I should have a child. The first words out of her mouth were to ask me if I had a good job (I had a decent job at the time, but she seemed to assume I was too poor to have a child based off of my appearance). After some other ignorant and uncomfortable questioning, I realized that I would have to request an OB referral, which I then did verbally. I told her I wanted to see an OB so I could have a regular checkup, not knowing how old the fetus was at the time. Zenker told me she could get a good idea by feeling my uterus. I agreed to let her do this. She was incredibly rough. I'm 32 and have had many pelvic exams, and this one stands out. I remember gasping and probably winced a little. She snarkily said, "What? Did that hurt?" as if she hadn't just jammed her hand forcefully inside of me or if she thought that somehow would not be painful for a person like me. Not to mention I'm pregnant. And not for the first time, so I'm familiar with tenderness, etc. (I endured a month-long miscarriage with zero pain medication). Ultimately, Zenker never referred me to an OB. So I called the office and asked for a referral. I had to wait for someone to contact Zenker for contact information and then call me back with a number. I called the office that I was referred to, and it turned out they did not have OBs there. I repeated this process two more times. Two times in total Zenker gave me a number to an office that did not have OBs or perform OB exams of any kind for pregnant women. tl;dr classist, misogynist, judgemental, bad communication, poor follow-through, rough vaginal/pelvic exams I give 1 star, because I just generally did not feel like I was being treated like a human being in her presence. I expect no one, especially women, to be warm & fuzzy, but I also expect no one to be the opposite. Thankfully, she is not my primary doctor.

I am 50 years old and had a lot of complicated issues; I was a mess and didn't take care of myself back then. With Dr. Baldwin's support I was able to look at the whole picture and realize that I needed to take charge of my physical wellbeing. She is the most caring physician I've ever had and she took the time to examine the underlining issues that were the root of my illnesses. I never felt rushed, uninformed and always left with a plan and next steps. There were times when I was not doing well that she called me over the weekend to see if I was okay.
