I was referred to this doctor for convenience, but my experience was upsetting and fear-inducing…read more After recovering from BV, I came in for a first time checkup. He said my Pap smear was "slightly abnormal" and immediately ordered a COLPOSCOPY without testing for HPV or explaining what "slightly abnormal" meant. Not to mention I am only 25 years old. He told me I "probably have HPV and it could be cancerous," which left me in tears after the appointment. A colposcopy is invasive and usually recommended based on the severity of results and confirmed high-risk HPV -- neither of which were explained or confirmed in my case. I sought a second opinion from my female gynecologist back home, had a full STD and HPV panel done, and everything came back completely normal. No further procedures were needed. I left feeling scared and pressured rather than informed or cared for. I would not recommend this doctor based on my experience.

But he has certainly earned it with me over time. Pros: -He is exceptional at answering questions in person and making sure you fully understand the answers. -He helped me discover that my increasing migraines were linked to the hormonal birth control I was on and he was helpful in attempts to find a decent replacement that fit for me (when I was in need of BC). -Office staff have over all been very kind. -I had a miscarriage scare recently and he went above and beyond to help me understand the situation and what I could expect going forward. Cons: -Luckily I am still pregnant but since Dr. Rabin no longer delivers, I will have to find a new OBGYN for the next year at least. -His brand of humor may be off putting to some people. -I did have to follow up frequently whenever I need to make an appointment for sudden issues like UTIs and YIs. -Parking for the building he is located in sucks. I always leave extra early to allow time for circling to find a spot.

I was initially hesitant to write this review, but after receiving follow-up emails from Thrive…read moreasking for feedback, I felt it was important to share my experience. I've been dealing with hormonal imbalance for the past four months. I'm currently with Kaiser and have seen nine different doctors, most of whom suggested anti-anxiety or antidepressant medication. However, I knew something deeper was going on. What I initially thought were panic attacks at night turned out to be hot flashes. I often felt dismissed and unheard, which was incredibly frustrating. My wife helped me research other options, and that's when we found Thrive. After reading so many positive reviews, I felt hopeful that I had finally found a place where I would be seen and heard. My first visit with the doctor was positive. She listened to my concerns and ordered bloodwork. However, after completing my labs, I had difficulty getting a follow-up appointment. My calls were not returned, and I eventually had to use the emergency text number just to get a response. I was told I had a phone appointment scheduled at 11 AM, but I never received a call. When I followed up, they offered me an in-person appointment later that day, which I accepted. During that visit, the doctor reviewed my labs and told me a pharmacist would contact me the next day to start testosterone treatment. Unfortunately, I never received that call. I want to be clear that I'm not trying to be difficult, but dealing with hormonal issues has significantly impacted my quality of life. I've been experiencing sleepless nights, restlessness, irritability, bladder issues, and an overall sense that I'm not functioning at my best. Given that this is an out-of-pocket service, the lack of communication has been extremely frustrating. I've since called and emailed multiple times without any response. Additionally, when you call their office, it goes straight to a generic voicemail that doesn't clearly identify the business, and messages are not returned. It feels like you have to constantly follow up just to get basic communication and even then, responses are inconsistent. I also want to add that I typically don't write reviews like this. However, if you are struggling the way I have been, I wouldn't want another woman to go through what I've experienced. I truly believe women should support one another and take each other's concerns seriously, and unfortunately, that has not been my experience here.

She made sure I got all my appointments set up with Dr Roger's and that everything ran smoothly. When my delivery came a little earlier than expected, Dr. Rogers didn't just stick to the standard 6 week checkup , she created a 2-4-6 week followup plan to make sure I was recovering well and feeling good. She also gave me great recommendations for classes, therapists, and other resources, and referrals which really showed how much she cares about her patients beyond just the medical side. If you're looking for a super hands on OB and a team that truly goes on the journey with you and makes sure you're okay every step of the way, Dr. Rogers and her office are amazing.

However, her office staff are slow to respond and when you do get someone on the phone they are condescending and unhelpful. I had an extremely hard time confirming my initial appointment. Most doctors offices these days send out reminders via email or text at least a week in advance of your appointment. When I did not receive a confirmation or reminder I reached out to the office by phone and email multiple times and no one responded to my emails or voicemails. I did not want to take time off of work for an appointment that wasn't confirmed and when I finally got someone on the phone I could practically feel her rolling her eyes at me as she told me they only confirm the day before. Okay, fine, but they could have emailed me back or called me back to answer my question instead of ignoring it for a week. Then I was billed three times for the same amount over the course of three months after I had already paid the bill. When I called the office to ask why my check hadn't been cashed and I was still being billed, the staff answering the phones was incredibly rude and told me to "take a breath" after I calmly explained my issue. I had already left a voicemail about the issue a few days before and no one called me back. Save yourself the headache and find a practice that employs responsive staff that can schedule effectively and bill effectively.

However, if you are dealing with more complex or ongoing gynecological concerns outside of pregnancy, I did not feel supported. I have been experiencing persistent discomfort and went in seeking answers and guidance. Beyond testing for basic infections, there did not seem to be any interest in exploring other possible causes or discussing next steps. When those tests came back negative, I felt like there was no plan and no curiosity about what else could be going on. I also requested documentation for a workplace accommodation due to ongoing discomfort, and that request was dismissed in a way that felt unsympathetic and invalidating. What was most upsetting was not just the lack of answers, but the lack of feeling heard. I left feeling discouraged and losing confidence in the medical system. Patients deserve to feel listened to, especially when they are in pain and seeking help.

It took them over 2 weeks to leave me a voicemail saying that the declined my request. They said I should book an appointment for a pap- um how would I even begin to do that if they are not able to return calls or even answer calls in general? Do not come here if you want anyone responsive or remotely communicative, the staff here is totally incompetent and useless, sadly at this point the doctor is kind of on the same page as well. I've never had so many issues with getting birth control prescription from a doctor. Stay away ladies.

As a private practice, I don't believe this office has the infrastructure in place to provide…read moreadequate care in the obstetrics field. I was referred to this office for my first pregnancy and when I went in for my first ultrasound at 7 weeks, the baby was measuring at only 5.5/6. Dr. Tamayo was skeptical that I knew when I ovulated, and believed that it was just too early. When I told her that I was tracking my ovulation and even showed her my calendar, she laughed nervously and then just kept saying, "Well if you think you know, then..." but wouldn't finish the sentence. I was sent for HCG testing at a separate lab, two days apart. On the day I was to receive a call about my HCG results, the office's phone lines were down. Every time I called I got a "Call Failed" notice. I was so desperate for information that I called another office in the same building and asked if they could go to the office and see what was going on. I was told that their phone lines were just "down," and that they would call on Monday. This was a Thursday. There was seemingly no recognition of the stress this situation could cause a patient and no effort made to contact me to alleviate any of it (I'm pretty sure someone in the office had a cell phone they could have used). Once I got the call on Monday, I was told that my HCG looked good and to come back in a week. I felt like something wasn't right, though, and pushed to speak to Dr. Tamayo. Melina then got very impatient with me, telling me that the Dr. didn't have time to talk to me on the phone because I was "one of many patients, and if she talked to the phone with every one of them, she wouldn't have time for appointments." Feeling pretty appalled and brushed aside, I snapped and told her just get me an appointment, after which she told me that I needed to treat her like a human being. My thoughts were, "likewise!" It turned out that the baby wasn't growing and I went forward with Misoprostol to miscarry at home, per Dr. Tamayo's orders. I went in for a follow-up 3 weeks later, where Dr. Tamayo informed me that the miscarriage was complete. However, I continued to feel sick. A month and a half later I ended up in the ER, where a much more thorough ultrasound showed that I had leftover pregnancy tissue in my uterus. I ended up getting a D&C with a different doctor, because at this point I had lost all trust in Dr. Tamayo and her office. A miscarriage is painful enough without the added pain of feeling ignored, and trivialized by your doctor. Moreover, there is no after hours line where you can call and get advice from a doctor. You are basically told that if you aren't having a life threatening emergency, you can't talk to anyone outside of business hours, but as my story proves, you can barely talk to anyone inside business hours, either! It also bothers me that no one ever answers the phone at the office. You have to call and leave a voicemail and then Melina calls you back later. If anyone has bothered to read this review this far, know that I believe Dr. Tamayo to be a capable doctor, but one who has no business working in obstetrics if she can't commit to after hours care, reliable phone lines for her patients, and empathetic staff who can handle difficult situations. I would definitely not recommend this office to anyone, especially for first-time pregnancies
