    Posted on Google, posting here too so there is more awareness about the lack of communication at…read morethis practice. 2 stars only because I have never had a bad experience with this office in the 12ish years I've been a patient until now. I had an iud for 6 years, got it taken out. Was on nothing, but my dr said she would send in a prescription for birth control pills if I changed my mind (this was my idea too). Went a few months and then finally filled the birth control prescription. My dr said to let them know if I started it so I could have a month follow up to check my blood pressure and make sure I'm still healthy. I called, left a voicemail. Didn't hear anything back. During my iud consult appt, I told my doctor that I started birth control about 2 months before and she looked confused that I didn't see her sooner due to the vitals needing to be taken. I felt like I was the problem, and maybe I was-I should've called again to make that appointment. But that's not the issue. I ended up getting an iud, the same one I had for 6 years, in March of this year. Dr Kalla inserted it, he was truly amazing. I've never had a male gyn and he made me feel comfortable. So thank you for that kind sir! I scheduled my follow up appointment for the first week of May at 4pm. I work an HOUR away from the office. I left at 3pm and while driving I realized I didn't get the usual call to verify I am attending my appointment. So I pulled over about 20 minutes into my drive to check the MyChart app and make sure I had the correct date. The appointment isn't in there! Confused as all heck, I call the office. I call a couple of times and it made the busy sound. Then, I called a 3rd time, and I got the after hours voicemail. At 3:20pm??? So I check their hours on their website, they were *supposed* to be open until 4:30pm. So why was I getting the after hours line over an hour from when they were supposed to close? Interesting. I called a 4th time and decided to stay on the line to be connected to their on call doctor/nurse. I waited a good 10 minutes and got no answer, so I hung up again. I have an annual scheduled in August and I'm probably just going to cancel it and find another office closer to me and my job...if I can even get ahold of someone, that is. It really sucks that I feel forced to leave an office that has made me feel comfortable and accepted over the past 12 years, but all good things must come to an end I guess.

    I'm putting this every place I can. avoid this place. I know having state insurance sucks but find…read moresomewhere else that takes it, I should have. After weeks of leg swelling, three days of severe shortness of breath, and one morning of chest pain, I brought myself to the hospital. Backus hospital. You're asking yourself, why did I wait so long, with another life inside of me. I didn't. I asked my doctor why my legs were so swollen, but she was a different doctor than I'd seen. In fact, at obgyn services, I never saw the same doctor twice until I gave birth. Since the lady didn't know me at all, she said "they don't look swollen to me" and I didn't advocate for myself because she was so quick to dismiss me. When my blood pressure went from its normal 90/60 to 120/70, they said it wasn't high. I said it was high for me and they said "I guess a little" and still I didn't press the issue. I called them with my shortness of breath and they said take a Benadryl and that it was either allergies or the wildfires across the country. I had to sleep sitting up. I went to the hospital July 28th 2021 when chest pain woke me up. I felt dumb. I felt like I was being dramatic. I took a bath before I went to see how I felt after. I went only because it wasn't only my life potentially in jeopardy. I got there and my bp was something like 173/99. My pulse was in the 40s. I had severe preeclampsia and heart failure. They induced me that day. The magnesium made me feel better but after the baby was born they took me off of it. My shortness of breath returned. I told a nurse and she said "oh do you have asthma?" .. as though the past however many days of heart failure/preeclampsia hadn't even happened. They gave me a breathing treatment and that's when I lost my mind. I freaked out. I could have made the right diagnosis and I have no degree. They said my bp of 140/80 was high but not so high they would treat it. They gave me a diuretic and discharged me. Guess who was back the very next day, then transferred to Hartford, still in heart failure???? Guess who still has a low ejection fraction? This guy. Also the ptsd from the entire situation has been debilitating. Also, I met a girl in my neighborhood who had a baby the same week with the same dismissive doctor. She had severe preeclampsia too. My point is do better. People should have ONE doctor. How the hell is a new person supposed to spot a difference in a person like excessive weight gain??? Don't dismiss people's concerns. You went to medical school for however long but I've lived in this body my whole life. A mother with high blood pressure should be a concern to you. I know you need the room and I have state insurance but discharging someone in heart failure does do harm... Also I felt like only the nurses and Dr. Briggs cared about my sexual assault history. Be sensitive to that. Or you ARE DOING HARM. I'm pretty sure you promised not to. Do some more research into preeclampsia and peri partum cardiomyopathy for the good of your patients. Please.

I got called to go back and there was no wait time (typically you're sitting and waiting for the doctor) when Dr. Clifford walked in she was friendly and made me feel very comfortable. I definitely recommend this place

    I have had two very negative experiences here. I gave them a second chance-and I will never go here…read moreagain. My first appointment was to put in an IUD. It was a nightmare!! The installation device malfunctioned and the strings got stuck in the device. The Nurse Practitioner then had to take the IUD back out. Yup. All in one session-i had to get one put in (extremely painful) and then taken right back out (also extremely painful). I almost passed out. Then she kept telling me how rare this is-as if that's going to make me feel any better! I couldn't get up, because of the pain, and she had zero empathy. She was pressuring me to get up and leave after lying down for only 5 minutes. IT WAS AWFUL!!! My second visit was with a different doctor, and I was hoping it would be better. Sadly, this doctor was also terrible. He was rude and made me uncomfortable. I was there to talk to him about getting my tubes tied because I know I don't want kids, and I don't want anymore IUDs, nor any hormonal birth control. He didn't even introduce himself. He walked in and started with a snarky question-"so how many children do you have?" And seemed pleased with himself. WTF? I said none. I explained the nightmares I have had with IUDs, multiple serious risk factors for giving birth, plus my age (in my 40's), and being sick of negative side effects hormonal birth control. Getting tubes tied seems the best option to me. I also know my body can't handle having children. He told me that women who haven't had kids are likely to regret getting their tubes tied. And he wasn't telling me I couldn't do it-but that he didn't recommend it. Ugh. And then told me just to use a calendar and to plan to not have sex during my most fertile time of month. WTF??? That's your answer?? He was acting like it wouldn't be a big deal if I had a kid. ITS MY BODY AND MY LIFE BRO!!! This guy had a weird attitude with me, and was judgey about me wanting to get my tubes tied without having had children already?? I would not recommend this practice!
