I switched to AWH after having a terrible experience with a miscarriage at another clinic. I…read moreexperienced a second miscarriage while at AWH and Allie Rodriguez, PA, was wonderful, caring, and provided good patient education. I saw Allie again for an annual check up and during my next pregnancy, and she is my favorite part about this clinic and I would recommend her services and care - I wish she could have been my OB. Other service providers at the clinic have been okay or disappointing. The front desk tends to be awkward. Only Tiffany tends to make eye contact and acknowledge your presence upon arriving - the others will not acknowledge you, so you can't tell if they are so engrossed in their work that they haven't seen you or if they are intentionally ignoring you. If you walk up to them or speak you get the "we'll be with you in a moment" - cool, just say that next time so I'm not wondering. Going to the doctor is a stressful experience for many and this cold welcome doesn't help. I was very anxious during my pregnancy because of my two previous miscarriages. The ultrasound techs were always wonderful and would tell you what they saw and what they were doing. The OBs themselves are kind of all over the place. You can't choose which provider will deliver your baby, so I opted not to see a single provider and instead meet all of them at least once so that I'd have a touch of familiarity on delivery day. I got okay to good impressions of all of the doctors during those visits except for Dr. Goodman who sped through "fat facts" - the things I was likely to experience or be at risk for being overweight and pregnant. While I do expect individualized medical care, what disappointed me was that she started out by apologizing for telling me these things (no one is more aware that I am fat than I am - have been my whole life, don't need an apology for sharing information if you believe it's important for me to have informed care). She then sped through the information, which included induction at 39 weeks, and I was so shocked that I opted to end the appointment rather than ask questions. I was still early in the pregnancy and just hoped to make it past the first trimester. There wasn't much notable about the other docs - they'd answer my questions and were not likely to offer up much info otherwise. The clinic was nice about me coming in between appointments to listen to the heartbeat to lessen my anxiety. The final straw was delivery day when Dr. Pettit swept my membranes without informed consent. I'm not saying I wouldn't have taken her expert medical advice, but you should tell me what you're doing to my body before you do it. After my final postpartum check up, I'm done with AWH.

She always made sure to leave out extra wintergreen mints for me. It's a super nice office. Front desk staff made sure I saw every single available dr incase something happened and I needed to see one of the other Dr's when I went into labor. I thought that was really sweet. They wanted to make sure I was completely comfortable with all the staff. I never had a "smear" before and Raidun was spoon gentle and coaxed me into trusting her and we clicked really well. I couldn't think of any better team than adefris! The level of care I received from the time I found out I was pregnant to the time it came for my emergency c section, I couldn't of had a better experience from Dr. Boeke and Dr. Crepeau. Dr. Boeke was so sweet from every prenatal visit to the final visit of my induction. He wanted to be the one to deliver my son and it so happened to work out that way. When it was time for the dr to come in during labor he grabbed my leg and rubbed it, just reassuring me that everything was going to be ok. And I couldn't thank him enough for that, especially as a first time mom. When it came to my last visit, I actually had tears in my eyes that I wouldn't be seeing him anymore. I had never met such an understanding and compassionate Dr before. I was on a specific medication and they worked with me talking to my prescribing clinic when I was having issues with them upping my dose due to my pregnancy. He always reassured me I was doing just fine and that I'd be a good mother and I really appreciated all the talks he, I and my husband had from start to finish. Needless to say if I have more, I'll be seeing these guys. I love them so much. They're an amazing woman's clinic.

I called the office explained the situation and was connected to the nurse station voice mail. I left a message right around 4pm on a Friday, received a call same day asking me to come in on Monday for labs. Fast forward 3+ months later and I'm still seeing those docs as i'm currently pregnant. I've had several appointments here for lab work, doc visits and ultra sounds. I never have had to wait long in the waiting room or to be seen by a doc. They run a pretty smooth ship. I have had one appointment mix up that the office apologized for, however beyond that I have had no issues. The docs are WONDERFUL! I have seen 2 in the practice and spoke to a 3rd that was on call and have nothing but wonderful things to say about everyone in this office. I would highly recommend this practice.

I can not say enough wonderful things about Oakdale and the care they provide. I've seen several…read moreclinic doctors, worked with Kim the Dietitian and Charet the physical therapist and feel that their comprehensive approach and "team work" nature serves patients in the very best way possible. Dr. Matthew Palmer is my primary at the clinic and after 12 years of poor treatment from another well-known clinic in the Twin Cities Dr. Palmer diagnosed me with stage 3 endometriosis and completed a comprehensive laparoscopic excision surgery. He is a true surgical genius and recognized nationally for his training and expertise in endo and excision. I have referred several patients to seek his care and everyone has left feeling "heard" for the first time in their lives. My husband and our families enjoy his soft spoken, kind and sensitive approach. I have never met a doctor who listens the way Dr. Palmer does. I also think a very unique feature of this clinic is their "team" approach to your care. Dr. Palmer is the endo/excision specialist but when we were facing infertility he referred us to Dr. McEvoy at the clinic who is the resident "fertility expert." I found this approach incredibly refreshing and it proved once more that Dr. Palmer is focused on providing the best patient care NOT his ego. Like any business I've had a couple bumps with trying to schedule things or a receptionist who may have been having a bad day, but the care here is second to none and we are all human. I'm there so often many of the nurses say hello by name and they truly make me feel at home no matter which location I visit.

I have had nothing but good experiences here with the staff and nurses. No issues with making appointments, and lab tests have all been handled timely and easily. I'm a tough stick for blood draws and haven't had issues with lab techs not being able to draw blood. I ADORE my OB at this practice, Dr. Margaret Enadeghe. She is the first OB I've had who's taken the time to listen and respond to every single one of my and my partner's questions. Even when I nervously ask the same question multiple times over several visits! We are never rushed, however long she needs to spend with us to make us feel comfortable and informed, she does. She's a lovely person and a new mom herself, and happy to share her experiences tackling motherhood, which I've really appreciated as I'm becoming a first-time mom as well. Also, for folks who have ED/body dysmorphia issues, Dr. Enadeghe is incredibly sympathetic. I have disordered eating and was really worried I'd be tempted to restrict calories because of pregnancy weight gain. Thankfully, Dr. Enadeghe told me there was no need for me to even LOOK at the scale when they weighed me. She said she would inform me if anything was out of the ordinary, and assured me that the number on the scale wasn't a concern. This approach really helped me and made me much less anxious about my body's changes during pregnancy. I also really like the policies put in place by the clinic. I think they try to stay on top of current academic research and are consistently changing their protocols, instead of just sticking with antiquated methods. Quick example: I'm a research junkie and learned there's relatively new data that states it can be beneficial to the newborn to delay cord cutting after birth. This helps with hemoglobin levels and a bunch of other stuff. I asked Dr. Enadeghe about this and she said it was standard policy for the clinic to delay cord cutting.

I transferred from another provider to Clinic Sofia in 2019 during my pregnancy and was very stressed and scared. Dr Wagner spent more than the time we had scheduled for the consultation. She listened and paid attention to our concerns and laid out a very detailed plan for my husband and I for me and baby's care. Katie at the front desk is super friendly! It was one of the best decisions of my life. The care is exceptional from the first day to delivery and after delivery day. Dr Stevens stopped by at one point to check on us. We can't thank you enough for how you've touched our hearts! The way we were welcomed, treated, taken cared off and continue to be cared for at Clinic Sofia is unmatched. We truly are grateful to have found a provider that truly care about their patients. Keep up the good work!

I enjoyed my experiences with all of the doctors and PA's that I worked with especially Dr. Jordi. I am saddened that I will no longer continue my care with this practice and that I wont get to deliver with Dr. Jordi or any other provider that I trusted. It is scary being pregnant and working with a great doctor for so many years and then having to make a change. I am currently pregnant with my first child and going through some abnormal symptoms that I find concerning. I called my care team and let the nurse know of my concerns in hopes that they would get me in to check my vitals and baby. Instead I was met with comments like I need to go to the ER or see a Neurologist... I was very taken back as my symptoms were not emergent. I have been seen for so many years with this team and they had no interest in getting me in and checking my blood pressure or any other simple tests to see if that may be the problem to my symptoms. I called back again in the afternoon to advocate for myself and try to get in with my OBGYN to ensure my baby and myself are healthy. The nurse was extremely dismissive and wouldn't let me get more than two words in. As a first time pregnant women I began to feel emotional and scared as it was clear they they did not care about me or my baby and were not going to help me. I have never been spoken to so poorly or ignored by a nurse more in my life. The nurse also stated that "they do not have any same day appointments" and they "wouldn't be able to give me the care that I needed if I needed fluids"... Maybe if they got me into the clinic they could see what I actually needed and didn't need and then go from there?.. As a frightened first time mom I would hope that my care team would be eager to get me in to check on me and my baby. I called a different OBGYN facility and explained the same symptoms to their team and they scheduled to get me in immediately due to their concerns with my symptoms. I HIGHLY recommend going elsewhere if you feel you are not getting taken seriously by the nurses. Always advocate for yourself and find a team that listens and cares about your wellbeing! I hope other first time moms do not have to experience what I did.

My entire experience at Health Foundations was amazing!…read more I was so scared to become pregnant- so many unknowns. I had no idea what to expect through my journey and while in labor. The midwives and birth classes gave me and my husband all the information we needed to feel in charge of our birth plan. They encouraged me to learn all of my options, gave me detailed information on the spot with pros and cons to every decision (unbiased), encouraged healthy eating, and we truly could not have asked for a better place for our child to be born. My labor was absolutely wonderful! It was even better than my ideal birth plan and the trust I had in the team allowed me to feel safe and supported. Amy and the team guided me through my labor, through my first hours of motherhood, and through my 6 weeks postpartum. I am eternally grateful for there love and support through my journey and would only wish this upon any other family. We also have used Lindsay Deeb as our pediatrician who does well baby visits at Health Foundations and at her clinic Dakota Pediatrics and we highly recommend her!

Kindbody Minenapolis…read more My husband and I tried to conceive for 34 months. I can't count the amount of positive pregnancy tests I saw, only for it to result in a chemical pregnancy. Something was wrong. The first year and a half was filled with "keep trying", "it will happen", "relax", "stop worrying about it". I went through three OBGYNs before I found one who cared. Turns out, I have endometriosis and tubal issues. Over the 34 months, I underwent a hysteroscopy, laparoscopy, two HSGs, and multiple rounds of clomid/letrozole and ovidrel--all to no prevail. I dreaded the thought... is IVF my only option? To make my babies in a petri dish? To recognize that I can't do this on my own? What about the cost? Then, I met Dr. Fabiola Balmir at Kindbody in Minneapolis. I immediately felt cared for, acknowledged, and like there was a possibility I could actually be a mom. I told her I wanted to move as fast as possible, and she saw me that next cycle. Honestly, my experience with the hormones and egg retrieval was horrible and I am so thankful that I will never have to go through that again. The way my body reacted to it was very difficult on me physically and mentally, but I am so grateful that I was with Dr. Balmir and her team. I could not have asked for a better team. The transfer, on the other hand, was a piece of cake. Within two and a half months of my initial appointment, I was pregnant. Finally. I had a complication following the transfer and Dr. Balmir and her team took incredibly good care of me both physically and mentally. Most importantly, my baby is safe thanks to them. I will never forget the moment Shelly found the heartbeat. In 6 months, my husband and I will welcome our first baby into the world, a daughter. That is still surreal to me. She has 6 perfect siblings in what we call "freezer daycare". Three brothers, three sisters. We can't wait to give each of them a chance at life, all thanks to Dr. Balmir and her team. I want to stress the care that I received at this clinic. Some people say IVF wasn't difficult, but for me, the entire process was difficult. The 34 months of trying, being told I was fine and young, coming to terms with the need for IVF, the retrieval, the complications, the fear of losing the baby. Dr. Balmir recognized my struggle, sat with me, held my hand, talked me through everything we did, and truly cared. Her entire team from the front desk to the MA and nursing staff, the techs... I have not one complaint about any of them and I cannot thank them enough. Price transparency with BCBS MN, when all said and done, the total bill was about $50,000, with about $10,000 out of pocket. That said, I had a big complication that caused me to undergo a procedure and to be watched very closely. Worth every cent, nonetheless. -AA
