I've never been pregnant, so I can't speak to the OB side, but my gyno is kind, patient, and listens to whatever concerns I raise thoughtfully. My appointments tend to last less than 30 minutes since I haven't had any abnormalities or issues. I tend to get confused about where to park and how to reach the office (likely since I only come once a year) but I manage to make my way there each time. If my experience remains this pleasant I can see myself staying to work with an OB if I do have a child one day.

She is knowledgeable, professional, and someone I have felt confident following medically. However, over the last couple of years, my annual appointments have consistently been with a physician assistant rather than with Dr. Leong. Unfortunately, my experiences with this provider have been disappointing. I have felt talked over during visits, not fully listened to, and at times treated as though my concerns were an inconvenience. I raised these concerns previously and was told I would not have to see this provider again, yet at my most recent visit I was scheduled with her again. The most concerning experience occurred when I became extremely ill. My wife called the office to request medication for nausea and was told that if we did not hear back, we should check the pharmacy. There was no follow-up call and no prescription sent. For a patient of more than two decades, that lack of communication and care felt dismissive and unacceptable. I still have respect for Dr. Leong, but the overall patient experience has declined. Long-term patients deserve to feel heard, respected, and cared for -- especially when acutely ill. I hope the practice and anyone thinking of joining takes this feedback seriously.

I came in through the ER Saturday after my water broke at home with intense abdominal pain, fever,…read morebleeding at the end of my first trimester. This is not my first pregnancy or pregnancy loss. I knew I was miscarrying our child. My contractions were every 2 minutes, rhythmic, that strengthened each time. My BP 150/60. HR 130s. Temp 101 with history of sepsis post loss. Dr. Tinker was on call and dismissed my concerns after a quick report of a heartbeat. The bleeding worsened while in the Triage and the contractions intensified. He blew it off as "cramping from an unknown virus". He said all of my labs "looked great" and told me to go home and rest. I asked to be hooked up on a monitor to look for contractions or test the fluid to ensure my water didn't break. Both requests denied because he said they would be "falsely positive". I was physically in so much pain I could not even walk. He kept reassuring me everything was okay, I was just sick..He said he knew this was scary from my previous loss and insinuated I was just anxious. I assured him this was not anxiety and that I wanted to stay but he said there was nothing he would do for me there. I went home and ended up laboring with my 2 small children. On Monday I called the OB office back with no answer, so I went back in. The ultrasound showed no fetus or placenta. A total loss at home with the false reassurance that this was all due to an unknown viral infection. I logged on to my patient portal later to find my labs were anything but normal that day. My urine culture even worse. He told us my Hct was 44 (well above normal) and it was 34 (less than normal). An eosinophil count of 90% (normal is 1-6%) with a lymphocyte count of 3% (normal is 20-40%). There were clear signs of infection and blood loss that day because I was, in fact, actively miscarrying our child in the ER, but this was covered up by Dr. Tinker's fabrication of my clinical picture. This is not my first experience with loss unfortunately as noted by Dr. Tinker. I had a loss at a different facility and they were able to make a handprint from my baby. It is my most prized possession. While we left that facility without a child, we left with hope from true compassion from those who cared for us during that tragedy. I will never have that opportunity because of Dr. Tinker's dismissive, condescending behavior. He rushed me out of the door and treated our loss like an inconvenience in his day. While no medical treatment could have saved my baby, the callus behavior made our worst day, worse and jeopardized my own life. I was never offered a prayer or a simple apology for our loss. For a Baptist hospital I am genuinely shocked at the lack of compassion and for the value put on a life itself. I pray that this doesn't happen to any other mom under their care. Every child is important and every mother should be heard.

I only have to visit once or twice a year, but Dr. Sarah Aultman is absolutely the best. She makes…read morethe visit worthwhile. She listens to all of your needs and she generally cares about her patients. I usually do not have that long of a wait to see her and she usually does not keep you waiting in the exam room. She is very thorough and she also chats with you to make you feel more at ease during procedures. I am always able to share all of my concerns with her without feeling weird. She makes great recommendations and I feel like she actually listens to me. If I cannot build trust with my doctor or feel unheard, I will usually change. I have been with Dr. Aultman for several years, even before she was at Alabama Women's Specialists. If I am willing to follow a doctor, then you know they have to be superb. I highly recommend Dr. Aultman because she's a caring doctor, who puts her patients needs first.

When I made an appointment with this clinic, I was just glad to be able to see them right away…read more When I walked in, after days of pain and the second month of that level of severe pain, I expected to be sent away being told nothing was wrong with me and I basically needed to just deal with it. I could have CRIED when every single person in the clinic was not just kind, but listened intently. They never made me feel rushed or that they didn't have time to talk about what was going on. They never acted dismissive. But I still expected after my ultrasound to be told they found nothing and to go home. But instead they were kind throughout the process and they DID find something and told me it was a good thing I listened to my body. They asked many questions after, getting a better idea of my history and current situation. They never rushed me or talked over me. Since it had been around two years, they asked if I wanted to do an exam since I was there, to also make sure everything else was okay. I said yes, because why not? I was already there. When I tell you that it was the most relaxed and comfortable exam I've ever had....I was blown away. They then took my labs because I mentioned I've been going through perimenopause despite my previous GYN dismissing it, so that they could look at my levels to make sure and also give them a clear picture of my current health and make recommendations if needed. I have NEVER felt so comfortable, understood, acknowledged, and validated as I did in this office. I will never go anywhere else and will recommend anyone and everyone I know to this clinic. I simply cannot say enough good things about my experience. PLEASE support this practice. I cannot express to you how absolutely amazing my experience was and how VASTLY different from any other experience I have ever had with a GYN clinic. I hope and pray they stay open, because I never want to go anywhere else. I also had a conversation with Dr. Hudson the same day about what had happened and he was understanding and wanted to make sure any and all of my questions were answered, as well as making sure I was well informed about the situation. He has worked very hard over the last years to build a practice that's different...that learns from mistakes and actively wants to do better. And it shows in the employees he has and in the way he listens and responds as well.

When making this appointment over three weeks ago I was told that they had a cancellation and if I didn't take this appointment I would have to wait until October. I arrived for my appointment at 10:15 a.m. which is fairly standard for most medical practices, and I was told that the CRNP (Dr. Allyson Gilstrap was on leave so I wasn't even going to see a doctor ) could not see me since I was not there at 10:00 a.m. To be fair, it was suggested, not mandated, to be there a half an hour early to fill out paperwork which would have taken maybe 10 minutes. But I was not made aware that if I was not there by 10:00 a.m. on the dot I would not be seen. I should have been told that. They asked me if I could come back at 3:00 p. m. That would not work for me and I said no and walked out. What is the purpose of making an appointment and arriving early just to be turned away for not being there a half an hour early!! Who does that?? I've never heard of such a thing!! And I should have been able to fill the paperwork out online like most medical practices offer now, and not this out-of-date system. I hope that the person/persons running this place rethink their policies because this clearly is not the way to treat new, potential and existing patients. Turning away a new patient for not being a half an hour early for their appointment is very suspect to say the least. I have since spoken to several people that I know in the medical profession and told them of my experience with this practice and they outright told me this is absolutely wrong.

Your life and time will be of no importance I found a lump in my breast in February of 2021. Made an appointment to visit my physician. At my appointment, I was told that I WAS OK and IT WAS NOT CANCER and to follow up in 6 months. I followed up with Eastern OBGYN in the 6 months only to be told I have stage 3 breast cancer and it's spreading fast. I am 28. My initial visit when I discovered the lump was with Eastern OBGYN PC where I have been a patient since 2017. Where my medical records note that I have complained of breast pain since 2017 and I have a family history of cancer. I was told by my oncologist that the abnormalities were noted in my initial exam back in February of 2021 but the drs didn't think anything of it because of my age. I am only 28 years old. I was 27 at the time of my diagnosis in September of 2021. 6 months after I noticed the lump, notified my physician, and was told I was ok.Not one person of any status within this hospital system has apologized for such a careless mistake. After 6 rounds of intense chemo, losing all of my hair.. a double mastectomy and an infection from the double mastectomy and over a month of radiation 5 days a week I am still having issues with this hospital system. Currently, I am in the process of completing 14 additional rounds of chemo and an additional drug. Dr. Ashley Fry is great. Dr. Anna Knight is literally an Angel on earth. She saved my life. The nurses are sent from heaven. Even after the surgery, I was bleeding profusely from one of my breast nipples, I visited my physician in tears and was told I was OK, it was not an infection and to just go home. A few weeks later, I myself discovered a huge infected hole on this very same breast that I was told by the doctors within this system that it was not an infection and I was ok and to go home. Again, I was ignored. I went to the ER a couple of weeks later and was told I had an infection and they had to remove the implant that was just placed bc of the reconstruction and mastectomy. Please choose the nearest research hospital or best research hospital for cancer treatment. Do me this favor and save your life. I'm not sure if this review will post because every other review that I've tried to post has only been visible to me. I pray that I will save your life. Also, I filed a complaint with the hospital and was told that someone from eastern would reach out. It has now been 7 months later. NOTHING.

The front desk receptionist seemed confused on whether I had a copay or not, but I believe she was still training so I could understand that. Now, Dr. Skanes was not a "fluffy" doctor, but she seems knowledgeable, which is more important to me. I do feel she warmed up more as our visit continued.
