Back around 2012 (I had just turned 26 or 27), I visited the NP at this office. I had such a pleasant first experience with a Ob-Gyn office. NP's services were just what I needed back then, even though I wasn't sexually active back then. read more

BEWARE THIS FALSE RESULT DOCTOR !!!! "I had a horrible experience with Dr. Ostoya During my prenatal care, I was given incorrect results for an important test! My nurse was Mexican , and iam mixed biracial and iam married to a Mexican and it was obvious she was extremely bothered and jealous about that . Dr Ostoya on the other hand just kept pushing test after test that wasn't even necessary which caused unnecessary stress and confusion. When I sought clarification, I felt my concerns weren't taken seriously. Accurate information and communication are critical in prenatal care, and this experience left me feeling unsupported. I seen a review on google about a women saying the SAME thing hoe he gives you incorrect test results ! I found a new doctor and all my test results came back negative which me and my husband where very happy about that . I hope this never happens to anyone else ! I feel so bad if it would . He doesn't care about his patients at all he only cares about money . DO YOUR SELF A FAVOR AND DONT COME TO THIS FALSE RESULT / UNPROFESSIONAL / POOR SERVICE OFFICE ! I'm so glad I switched to DR Dhami near downtown Fresno . My experience with Dr. Dhami was amazing read more

Dr Ostoya is such a Great Obgyn , he is very caring and professional. He is the best doctor I have met in America. He delivered my first baby and he is the only reason that I'm still staying in this city now as I'm planning to have my second baby now. It is sooo sad to hear that he is closing his practice by next week. I need time to digest this news. I hope everything is good with Dr. Ostoya. read more

Not sure why he's not already @ 5 stars this man is god sent! I started my care with Ostoya at 20ish weeks & from the first visit I could tell he was not just a doctor but a person who cares about each and everyone of his patients! He is so nice, cracked jokes & almost acts like your dad sometimes. I gave birth yesterday via c-section ( she was 9lbs 3oz & didn't fit down ) , he care reassuring me after pushing for 2 hrs that it's okay that I want a c section & I had done all I could do and that he would take over from here. 2hrs later I came to and my husband was showing me my baby girl for the first time! I would not go to any other OBGYN, when he retires I will also retire with having babies I'm almost sad that I won't see him anymore because he's become more this just my dr he's my friend now LADIES GO TO OSTOYA FOR EXCELLENT CARE. read more

Ostoya is the best doctor I could have asked for! He saved my life and my babies life. He is the reason my baby is so healthy. At 34 weeks I was preeclamptic (more or less high blood pressure causing seizures and strokes) very serious and could easily turn life threatening for mom and baby. I went into his office for an appointment my blood pressure was 180/120 (very bad) and was immediately admitted to the hospital. Given medication for my BP and also given a steroid for my baby to help his lungs grow. I spent 2 weeks in the hospital and got to 36 weeks and 4 days before my BP got worse and I started to become unstable, liver started shutting down, blood platelets dropping fast (meaning that my blood would not be able to clot like it's supposed to and ultimately I would have bleed out during child birth (or c-section)) ostoya asked me what I wanted. And even though it might have been a little more dangerous he gave me the chance to be induced and have my water broken and try to get the baby out naturally which didn't work as I wouldn't dilate past 3cm. We would up having to do a c-section. And ostoya was amazing through doing it. Got me in and ready. Walked me through the process as he himself wheeled me into the operating room! I was awake the whole time. He was quick, amazing and the scar seems to be really small. Not very visible. And his care after was amazing too. I was so happy to see him the next day and too be feeling so much better and to be off the medication. He was absolutely amazing. And his care after the birth has been amazing. I have been so blessed with my baby (went through infertility to get pregnant with hi. That ostoya did assist in) and for the end of the pregnancy to be so bad I'm so happy to have my baby. He was preterm born at 36/4 at 4lbs 14oz. But he was healthy and needed no NICU care due to the steps doctor ostoya put in to make sure his lungs where mature and he stayed in me as long as possible! Thank you ostoya! read more

Ostoya W Paul, MD - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Fresno, California

I chose to see him after reading the great reviews. I was having some pain, so I wanted to see a specialist. After doing some lab work and ultrasounds, he told me everything looked "good" , and he didn't have an explanation. He told me we had 2 options for the pain. I could either take hormonal medications to stop my periods which could help, or I could have a hysterectomy. I'm not even 40 years old and he's suggesting some pretty extreme procedures! I asked him if there was anything less extreme, but he didn't have an answer. Needless to say, I decided not to go forward with him as there had to be other things we could try before terminating my periods or having a hysterectomy! The best part came a week later though. I got a call from his office stating that their copy of my insurance card wasn't clear. Now, I had filled out all the paperwork, so they had my insurance information. I immediately faxed my cards over. And called them. They said they never got it, so I faxed again. I called again and they said their fax was down but they would call me if they needed anything else. I never got any other calls. About a week later I got an $800 LabCorp bill. I called Dr. Ostoya's office for help but they said there wasn't anything I could do. I wish I had written down the girl's name so I could write it here. So, I've had to go back and forth with LabCorp to bill my insurance. I finally got someone on the phone in their billing department and they told me that my member ID was different than what was on my card. I asked them how they knew my member ID since it wasn't on my card. The LabCorp rep told me that they had the member ID on the forms Dr. Ostoya's office sent to them. I was surprised and asked why they didn't bill my insurance in the first place. The best part, "Dr. Ostoya's office sent in the paperwork but wrote that the patient should be billed.". Unbelievable! So Dr. Ostoya's office had my info but wanted me to be billed personally. It's been such a hassle dealing with LabCorp. I'm a working mom and don't have a lot of free time. This has been an awful experience. I wouldn't recommend him to any of my loved ones. What a unprofessional joke of a doctor. read more

Dr. Ostoya's gifted hands worked through God's plan. I had started to feel my baby kick and move less at 37 weeks so I told Dr. Ostoya. On Thursday July 2nd, he sent me to the hospital for a non-stress test and special ultrasound...at that time everything with baby looked normal. However, Dr. Ostoya had me go for a follow-up 5 days later on Tuesday July 7th instead of the usual weekly f/u. I was at his office doing another non-stress test and from there was sent immediately to hospital based on the results. A normal baby's heart rate during pregnancy is suppose to be 120-150bpm. My baby's was at 60bpm for about 3-4 minutes while I was having a contraction. This happens when the cord is bent in some way and the baby isn't getting enough oxygen. This is very dangerous and could result in stillbirth which is why I was rushed for an emergency c-section. Dr. Ostoya is a miracle worker and saved my baby! Thanks to him and his quality of care I have a healthy newborn! We are so blessed and thankful that although he was born 2 weeks early he is healthy and I'm recovering well! I am forever thankful to Dr. Ostoya and I highly recommend him as an OB-GYN! Thank you for everything!!! read more

Simple review; he is the best in town! Hands down. I love Dr. Ostoya and his staff! Shoutout to Alex for always being so polite and down to earth! read more

Dr. Paul is hands down the best obgyn I have seen he goes above and beyond for his patients and actually cares and makes you feel comfortable. Appointments aren't rushed. Wish I would've found him my 1st pregnancy. Totally recommended! Good job Dr. Ostoya read more

Office staff unfriendly and disorganized. Made whole experience of checking in as a newly pregnant woman totally unpleasant.

Left at least 3 voice messages that past 2 weeks and haven't received a call back. I'm simply trying to make an appointment as a first time patient. But I guess I'm dodging the bullet with how I'm already being treated. read more

This doctor noted that at my age (41) multiple times during a routine papsmear that I should look into freezing my eggs. Asked about my husband and my sexual dynamic. I feel upon leaving that office (note: during a papsmear he has a lady assistant at his side also in view of your vagina.) dirty and like there was zero, yes zero respect held for my nakedness and my reproductive choices. Be kind to yourself and choose someone else to handle that part of your health. read more

Stage 4 Endo Warrior, Dr. Ostoya and team best in town. He cares a lot for his patients and is extremely knowledgeable.

When I had my first child, I've been seeing Dr. Ostoya, but during my second pregnancy, it was horrible. Doc spoke and treat me as if I were a new patient and then shortly after found out that I was a returning patient. My two appointments got pushed back and rescheduled so I had to work around my schedule for it. On one of my appointment, the service took so long, no explanation about what's going on. Waited over an hour but I couldn't wait any longer because I had other places to be at. My husband even said how he didn't like how the doc handle things around the office. I decided to switch OB since Dr. Ostoya's office did not meet my expectation of professionalism. When I went to see my new doctor, they didn't receive my medical records from the Dr. Ostoya's office, which was a month ago when I signed a medical release form. That delayed my whole appointment to where I waited over two hours at the new location. Finally, my new doctor asked me how long have I had cystic fibrosis. To my surprise, I was never told I had cystic fibrosis. The doctor looked at the paperwork again and said that it was clearly written on there. I glanced over the paperwork and realized the DOB wasn't me. Somehow I recognized that DOB and it was a relative of mine and I never knew she had cystic fibrosis. I was furious that they sent my relative's medical records without double checking and learning that my relative have that disease made me feel even more uncomfortable that it wasn't through her that I'm hearing it from, but the doctor. I thought that was very unprofessional and untrustworthy on their part. So because Asian people have similar names, they're just going to based it off on that instead of checking my other personal information before submitting. This is definitely racial discrimination. They're giving out other people's information freely and now I don't feel safe that they may send other people my information as well. read more

He's incredible. I had a C section and his professionalism, knowledge and bed side manner was the best I've ever encountered. From beginning to end, I always felt like he had the baby and my best interests at heart. I feel like the office is homey and I will FOREVER be a patient of his. Can't wait to start working on baby #2! read more

I have been with Dr. Ostoya since Jan 2018. He provided prenatal care throughout my whole pregnancy. He was concerned about my thyroid and sent me out for ultrasounds and blood work just to make sure everything was ok. He referred me out to see a specialist because of my age just to make sure everything was ok with baby. As the other review stated, Dr. Ostoya is very thorough and can be blunt at times but he gets the job done. He preformed my c-section so perfectly I couldn't have asked for more perfect OB. The staff are really nice and polite also which made my appointments enjoyable. read more

I decided to go to Dr. Ostoya's office after reading all the great review. My visits were nothing like everyone says. Very first visit after I checked in they rescheduled me. I'm full time working mom and it was hard for me to reschedule my appointments. So the office decided they can see after hours the same day. So I waited and waited. After 1.5 hour later they took me to the back. By this time it is now 7pm. Dr. Ostoya decided he wants me to get some lab work done. Once I did, I would see him and send me back to the lab because he forgot or his staff forgot to mark what they wanted me to get done. This happened about 4 times, I had to get lab work for differents things when I could have all of them tested at the same time. 2 times I went in for an appointment and he didnt remember why he scheduled me to come in. His staff is not very friendly either. After sticking it out for a year I had to find a new doctor. Especially after they told me they have not been taking my insurance anymore. So I recieved a bill for almost $1200 for 3 months worth of visits. I had concerns and he seem to not know what was going on even after lab tests. He wanted to put me on certain medicines which you cannot take more than 6 months. I was on month 5 and he said he's going prescribe me the meds for 3 more month. So that made me feel like he wanted to put me at risk. I found a new doctor and told my new doctor what Dr. Ostoya was doing. My new doctor was in shock and couldn't believe he was still in business. I definitely regret staying so long with Dr. Ostoya thinking he could help me it even cared about my well being. read more

Best Gynecologist ever!!!! I had placenta Pervia and I couldn't imagine having anyone else be as helpful and knowledgeable as Dr. Ostoya. He delivered my baby boy by C section with no complications yet he was prepared for the worst. I feel truly blessed to have found him !!!! read more

Ostoya W Paul, MD - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Fresno, California

If you are looking for the best OBGYN in Fresno/Clovis...Dr. Ostoya is it. He is absolutely wonderful. He cares about his patients and really knows what he is doing. He deals with high risk pregnancies, which is why I chose him and also because he was recommended by some friends. He took care of me during my pregnancy. I dealt with chronic hypertension and he took great care to monitor it and make sure my little one and I were safe. He is a sweet person. He listens. He explains things. He is respectful. You won't regret choosing Dr. Ostoya. His office staff is wonderful too. I enjoy all of my visits and look forward to them. Never a negative experience. Sometimes the wait is a little long. But when you are receiving the best care possible, the wait doesnt matter. read more

Ostoya W Paul, MD - Malachi Gabriel born 2/12/2015. Thank you, Dr. Ostoya! - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Fresno, California

I've been going to Dr. Ostoya for about 6 years now, he was my first gynecologist and I was so afraid! He made the experience a delight. I didn't feel a thing. He's very attentive and caring, always remembers personal details and asks questions, which makes me feel very comfortable (I have a theory that he leaves himself notes in patient files to remind himself about them!! haha). But, he doesn't mess around he's to the point and direct, he doesn't care to sugarcoat things and I love it! He won't ever push his opinions on you, but he tells it how it is. Great doctor! read more

I know this rating is coming a little late, but I wanted to give my rating of Dr. Ostoya because he is an amazing doctor. He brought both of my children into this world, and both were through C-sections, which my scar is invisible. He treated us with kindness, compassion, and was there through every step of the way. He also did my tubal ligation procedure and everything turned out incredibly well. From beginning to end he was clear and just an all around down to earth person. He always had a smile on his face, and his staff was courteous as well. Thank you so much Dr. Ostoya. read more

Very professional! This man is competent as can be, he has a good sense of humor, and he cares very much about his patients. His staff is just as wonderful. read more

Dr. Ostoya delivered both of my daughters, one came on a holiday, the other in the middle of the night. He was not the on call doctor either of those times but made sure that he was there for both to make sure baby and mama made it through safely. Sometimes Dr. Ostoya can seem a little rough around the edges, as he doesn't sugar coat anything and tells you exactly how it is...sometimes he doesn't have the best bedside manner but I appreciate his honesty, knowledge and expertise. Hes extremely thorough too, if he feels there may be a chance something may be wrong, he will make sure it is ruled out instead of assuming all is probably well. He is a great doctor who truly cares for his patients well being and the well being of the babies he is helping to bring in to the world. You can't go wrong going to him. read more

I was referred to Ostoya by my former OBGYN due to a problem with my insurance. Called ahead of time about an hour before my appt and asked if I could bring my significant other with me and the lady I spoke too at the front desk told me no only scheduled patients are allowed to come and to please wear a mask and I said no problem! I show up and see nothing BUT couples in this OB's office..and not only just couples but couples that aren't wearing masks??? Are you serious? THEY LITERALLY HAVE SIGNS POSTED ON THE FRONT SAYING, "Only scheduled patients allowed and masks to be worn at all times." The ladies at the front desk didn't care to do their own job. I finally got called back and the worker didn't ask me how I was doing at all, pointed in the direction of my room and told me to go there after leaving a urine sample. I finally ask her why nobody was enforcing the rules and why I was put at risk today? Assistant tries to tell me significant others are allowed in the waiting room and has nothing to say about them not wearing masks. I happily tell her there's literally a sign posted contradicting what you're telling me and she has nothing to say. Tells me to bring it up with the doctor then. Doctor Ostoya comes in and tells me it's " too hot" for our significant others to wait in their cars..not that that was the issue it's the fact they're not wearing masks? He ends our appointment telling me I'm overweight and doesn't ask me what I've been eating or advise me what I should be eating either. Doesn't even tell me to have a nice day. This office is disgusting read more

I've been Dr.Ostoya's patient since 2014 starting with my first pregnancy ,since then weve had 3 pregnancies. Hes a Dr. With alot of experience! Such a caring Dr who truly goes above and beyond to make sure that your concerns are eased especially when its regarding your baby! Not only that but he actually saw us himself in every single appointment all the way up until delivering our baby! I've referred 3 different friends to him and they've all loved him and have not switched drs since! He will be my obgyn until I'm forced to pick another one when he chooses to retire! Thank you Dr.Ostoya for keeping me and my babies safe! I wish we could rate more than 5 stars he deserves more than just 5 stars! read more

Dr Ostoya was very knowledgable and professional throughout my entire pregnancy. As a first time mom he was very patient with me and all my silly questions. Ostoya is passionate and cares about not only you but the little baby growing inside. Having said that dr Ostoya will Ensure you as the mom are doing everything in your power to keep that baby healthy. He is very stern about weight, eating habits and overall health of you and your baby. Sadly for me he was out of the country when I went into labor, but the entire 9 months he kept me healthy and happy. Do not let these other bad reviews detour you, Dr Ostoya and his team are amazing and they would never pressure anyone to harm a baby. Dr.Ostoya treats all patients with equal professionalism. If you want to write a bad review you should do it on the lady next door to him that takes your blood. She has the personality of a pet rock. read more

Dr. Ostoya is a rock star. He has been my Dr. For both of my pregnancies. He's so caring and doesn't sugar coat anything. There's a girl that works in his office I don't care for but the other girls are extremely helpful very sweet and always willing to help with whatever you might need. A+++ read more

Dr. Ostoya is my obgyn and I couldn't be happier with the care he has given me! He's very on top of your problems and was very good at making sure my pregnancy went good. He answered every question and was very good to explain everything! Definitely will continue going here! read more

As first time parents to be, my husband and I had our first appointment here with Dr. Ostoya. I received a call at work asking us to come early, so I left early and made it about 15 minutes early to our scheduled appt time. We waited an hour to be called back. Then were called back to another room to wait in, where we spent another 15-20 minutes. I was very surprised that we never received a simple apology or "sorry for the wait." When we finally saw the doctor, he spent no longer than 5 minutes with us. He did a transvaginal ultrasound and confirmed the pregnancy and heartbeat, but was so fast that we didn't even get to hear it. He asked barely any questions and as he was leaving the room I had to stop him to ask about my class C medications I've been taking. He didn't offer any new mother education or anything. I left feeling very bummed and like this isn't normal for an OB appt. I asked some friends and they said that this was not normal. I decided to give this office another shot and scheduled an appt. They called the day before and rescheduled this appointment, they then called day of to again cancel this appointment. Mind you, we were asked to come back within 10 days and we are now already at 2 weeks and they canceled. I was pretty upset so Dr. Ostoya himself called me and explained that he can't keep his staff there until 4pm for my scheduled appointment as they canceled the other appointments that day. They asked that I come early, but I was at work. He told me that they can no longer see me at the 4pm time related time COVID, but this is the reason I chose this office. He went on a rant that my manager needs to let me leave to come on my lunch break the next day and didn't believe me when I said I have no sick time or PTO to use (I'm an agency nurse). Long story short, I cancelled my lunch time appointment the next day and went with another doctor and couldn't be any happier with my choice. Maybe Dr. Ostoya just wasn't a good fit for me, doesn't mean he's not a great doctor. read more

Today was my first visit at the clinic and all I can say I'm very happy ! The staff is nice ! Ooomy and the Doctor is humble and caring I finally feel like someone cares about me and my future babies. I was referred by a friend/supervisor name Terri. I love, the fact he took the time to sit down and go over my history of my two child birth, One alive and one still-born . Feels good to know, that he is willing to help me and won't let another still born baby happen. Doc Ostoya, has a positive energy. I can tell, he loves his job and is willing to go beyond with his patients. I'm so proud to call him my OB DOC ! I'm looking forward for my future bundles of joy babies! read more

Dr Ostoya is a great Dr he delivered my baby girl June 25 2018 , I would recommend him!!!

I feel so lucky to have found Dr. Ostoya when I did. Originally, my OB was with Kaiser during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. Long story short, my health coverage stopped, so I was in need of finding a new OB. I read his reviews online and decided to give him a shot. Prior to my first visit I was really nervous meeting him, as it would be too late to change doctors 30 weeks into my pregnancy. Upon meeting him, I was very pleased with how thorough he was during the exam. He took his time, answered my questions and also picked up on underlying health issues my previous OB had missed. He then ordered the necessary testing and blood work to ensure the safety for both me and my baby. Throughout the remainder of my pregnancy Ostoya was very attentive and monitored me twice a week for polyhydramnios (excess amniotic fluid). Towards the last weeks of my pregnancy it became extremely difficult for me to breathe with all the extra fluid and baby measuring ahead of his due date. Ostoya then gave me the option to have a c section to minimize health risks for both me and baby. I was very nervous to have a c section but ultimately knew I was in good hands. Ostoya did an amazing job! I'm 3 weeks Postpartum and my scar is healing nicely (it's very clean and hardly noticeable). FYI Ostoya is known to be the best at c sections (the nurses at the hospital said that during my stay). I just had my follow up with him today and I couldn't be more grateful to have him deliver my first baby! If you are looking for an OB I highly recommend him. He is very straightforward, but also kind and truly cares about his patients. read more

Dr. Ostoya has been my OBGYN for the past 9 years and two pregnancies. I couldn't be happier with the service he provides. With my latest pregnancy, Dr. Ostoya visited me at the hospital every day of my 4 day hospital stay to ensure I was doing okay. When my baby was losing more than expected weight, Dr. Ostoya ensured I was provided with additional hospital days until my baby was showing weight gain. I also want to add, my c-section scar is seamless, hardly noticible! He does an incredible job! read more

Ostoya W Paul, MD - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Fresno, California

Dr. Ostoya is absolutely amazing! After having two previous births with other doctors I feel like I was jipped after receiving the care I did from him. He truly cares about you as his patient, and I appreciated the fact that when it came time to delivery he didn't let an on-call doctor deliver for him. He takes the time to listen to your concerns & needs. His bedside manner is unlike any doctor I have ever had before and the office staff is just the icing on the cake. Would highly recommend him to anyone & everyone that will listen ;) read more

Ostoya W Paul, MD - Dr. Ostoya with Miss Penelope Rae-Ann minutes after he delivered her! Amazing OBGYN, truly cares about you! - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Fresno, California

Dr. Ostoya has been my OB for 9 years I couldn't imagine having anyone else. My first pregnancy I had no complications, my second one was high risk when my water broke at 26 weeks. I was in the hospital for a month until I had to have an emergency c section at 33 weeks, if he wasn't there or with me throughout my pregnancy I don't know how I would be mentally or physically. He checked on me and my baby everyday I was in the hospital and was always there when I needed. He is the greatest blessing, I am forever grateful. He has delivered 6 kids between me and my 2 sisters. We love him and wouldn't ever go anywhere else! read more

I have been a patient with Dr Ostoya since 2001. I was recommended by a friend and it was one of the best recommendations I ever received. He has delivered all 3 of my kids. His staff is very understanding and friendly. Julia has been there FOREVER. They are like two peas in a pod. The NP, Melissa, I love her. She is so personable and sweet. I don't mind seeing her at all if Dr. Ostoya is unavailable. I love the fact that he can do ultrasounds in the office, instead of going to another location. Dr. Ostoya is very BLUNT and tells you like it is regardless if you want to hear it, which comes in handy at times. At times you do have to wait when you have an appointment but you get the same care as the patient ahead of you. It's worth the wait!!!! read more
