I move to a different state every three years so I've been to several OB/GYN's over the years, and…read moreDr. Smale is by far the best. She's been my doctor for 3 years. She's so friendly, upbeat, and her demeanor always puts me at ease. As with most OB/GYN's, it's always evident that she's in a hurry but she has always taken time to answer any questions I have. Her new nurse is also very friendly but the lady at the front desk should learn to be more welcoming and kind. I always schedule my appointment to be the very first patient after Dr. Smale's lunch break and have never had to wait more than 5 minutes. Also, I like that when you call the office a person always answers instead of those stupid recorded messages that most doctors have. It has always taken over 2 months to get in to see Dr. Smale so call ahead of time to make an appointment.

I have been to many gynecologists over the years due to needing different types of expertise. I…read morehave been with Dr. Smale for several years and she is one of the best for several reasons: 1. I feel comfortable when I have to ask uncomfortable questions. 2. I don't feel rushed. 3. She seems educated and competent in the latest in healthcare. 4. She is typically on time (never had to wait longer than 15 minutes). 5. Her staff have been congenial and accommodating. 6. She has a great personality. 7. I have referred several friends to her and they have been satisfied as well.

So far we've had the privilege of dealing with three doctors in this group. Dr. Lucia Fouts is my…read morewife's regular OB/Gyn, and has been great. She answers all my wife's (and my) questions without ever sounding patronizing/condescending or making us feel stupid. Her demeanor is very easygoing, but not aloof. This is a group that works together, so since Dr. Fouts wasn't on call, Dr. Haley delivered our first child, and Dr. Davis our second. As one of the nurses at Dupont Hospital said, "I can't think of a negative thing to say about any doctor in this group." In my opinion that's high praise from a labor and delivery nurse, especially one that doesn't work for these guys directly.

I have been on high stress waiting for this appointment for ten days now. I am pretty sure I have…read morevaginal prolapse and my regular doctor refused to leek at it and wanted me to make a separate appointment so I went with WHA instead. Then on the appointment day I got up early and was there 45 min early only to discover I left my ID and insurance card at home and they refused to see me. Politics of our "medical care" today. So I litally flew back home and got back with the cards exactly on time and they said there was nothing they could do but reschedule. I told them how horribly stressful this is and the only day I had. Then I asked if someone could tell me what to do if it falls out. Finally someone came back and told me to just push it back in. No forgiveness from them and I have no forgiveness for them.
