Dr. Pushkin is the best! she deliverd all three of my children and I always felt in the best care. She is a great choice especially for new moms. She always made time to see me and answer all my questions. I felt very lucky that she was there for all 3 deliveries. read more

They charge a. ADDED $200 fee after you arrive without disclosing the charges beforehand Crooked doctor read more

I left a bad review after they showed me a greedy disclaimer. Afterwards they retracted it. Pushkin is a good doctor who cares about her patients and is shrewd enough to know how to make the system work for us. read more

Dr. Pushkin is a RARE breed. I have never had a doctor that makes me feel so heard. She takes the time to get to know her patients as people. I always feel she takes her time during our appointments, never rushed like most doctors. I feel so grateful to have found her. read more

I have been going to Sharon for 15+ years. She's is so consistant with her care. I trust her 100%. The office is relocated to the second floor. The front desk seems to be busier now that they share space with other physicians. Everything is also digital so it's easy to check in. read more

I've been going to Dr. Sharon Pushkin for 25+ years. I live on the East side so it's a trek to go to Santa Monica once a year, but this doctor is worth it. She spends time with her patients. She's incredibly knowledgeable and up to-speed on women's health. She's also got great bed side manner. If I moved to a different state I would still come to see her. She's a great doctor. I've recommended her to several friends who are now also her patients. Excellent! I can't say enough. read more

Nice staff. On my first visit, the doctor spent time listening to what I had to say, and I never seemed rushed. That's very important to me. I would definitely recommend her. I'm 77 so she is my gynecologist not OB. read more

Dr Pushin is a great doctor and a good listener..... very professional.... her staff is very nice.... this office makes you feel comfortable read more

I appreciated the time and effort Dr.Pushkin provided me on my first visit. She is very attentive, caring, and thorough. She's everything you'd want from an OB/GYN. I highly recommend her. read more

Took my wife to get treated by Dr. Pushkin and we were both impressed with how thorough, kind, and professional she was. She was empathetic towards my wife's case and put her worries at ease with lots of smiles and optimistic words. Thank you so much, Dr! read more

I am so glad that Dr Pushkin was recommended to me. Her medical expertise and warm demeanor makes you feel like you are in trusted hands. I had a fainting scare after a procedure yesterday and I can't express my appreciation toward Dr Pushkin and her nurse Diana for helping me through it without judgment. Diana even called me afterwards to make sure I made it home okay. It meant so much that you did not treat me like an inconvenience and let me rest for as long as I needed to. Thank you so much for being there for your patients! read more

Sharon has been my OB/GYN for the past 15 years. She delivered my baby (9 years ago), and honored all of the requests of my natural delivery birth plan. She has a great bedside manner, and is really down to earth and friendly. read more

I was referred to Dr. Pushkin and her team by my mom and I am happy I was! The entire office is professional, kind and caring which is very important when choosing a doctor (in my opinion). They make you feel at ease and like you are in good hands. They listen to your concerns and try to find the best possible feedback and are great with their follow up. Parking is on the street or in the garage but you do have to pay. The office does not validate. read more

Sharon is an amazing Doctor with a ton of experience. She took such wonderful care of me through out my pregnancy (which was not easy) and was incredible during and after my birthing. Always returning my calls quickly, and answering my million questions. I felt a connection with her right away. I love how honest she is, yet so caring, kind and warm. I highly recommend her. I really like her nurse Diana as well. Very sweet and very good at her job. read more

Dr. Pushkin is an amazing, caring, passionate doctor. She was my OB/GYN when I had my first child in June 2008. I felt comfortable with her from the second that I met her. On delivery day- I don't want to be too detailed, but the monitors showed that our baby was in fetal distress and Dr. Pushkin was honest the whole way through, but had a gentle way of keepin me calm. I knew our baby and I were in safe hands. The ONLY downside is that she only takes PPO. My insurance switched to an HMO, and I couldn't afford her out of my own pocket. If I could, I would in a heartbeat. I have yet to meet an OB/GYN that can fill her shoes. I definitely recommend her! read more

Had my second child-with Dr. Pushkin! As always she and her staff are amazing! Of course I called the office with stupid questions and concerns-and they were amazing! Diana is also great-but seriously her whole staff is amazing! You are in good hands with them!!! read more

Sharon F. Pushkin, MD - Two happy deliveries with the help of Doctor Sharon Pushkin! With an assist from her dad, Doctor Robert Pushkin! - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

I have been meaning to write a review on Dr. Sharon Pushkin for awhile, as she has been my OB for 13 or so years! I just had a doctor appt today so it reminded me to do so - anyhow, she is seriously the sweetest doctor I have ever had. She makes you feel so good at every appointment and if you ever have any worries or fears she always says the right thing to make you feel better. She delivered my first son who is now 2 and a half and will deliver our second baby this year as well, and it just reassures me to know that she will be present in the delivery room with me!! Also, she truly does love her job, you definitely want someone delivering your baby who really loves their job. Her face just lights up every time she hears my baby's heartbeat and you can tell she just lives for those moments. Also, her office staff is very polite and organized. Sometimes there can be a long wait but it is so worth it because she is the best OB ever! read more

I have been a patient for at least 10+ years. She has delivered both my children. One of the kindest, most genuine and thoughtful human beings, not just any doctor, she is special. I used to be a patient of her father's, Dr. Robert Pushkin, and then was transferred over to Dr. Sharon when I was pregnant. Like father, like daughter. They are amazing. Such a great team. I wanted a 3rd child just so I could get to see her more often :) read more

I felt SO fortunate to have Dr. Sharon Pushkin as my obgyn. I interviewed 5 doctors before I found her. She has incredible bedside manner and is supportive of whatever method you decide to deliver. I was one of the "crazy" patients who wanted to try hypnobirthing and delay cord clamping which she had no problem with. She never tried to push her own agenda. My favorite moment with Dr. Pushkin was when she was listening to the heartbeat of my baby at 6 months pregnant, she looked up to me and said "I could listen to that for days, it's music to my ears". What a sweetheart!! In the end, I got the best delivery I could have hoped for which was in part due to her professional presence during my delivery. Her staff are also fabulous!!! I've never encountered a more professional and personable drs staff. read more

I'm so glad that my friend recommended dr. Pushkin to me. I've always had a great experience with her.

She said... The best doctor EVER! She delivered my first child and we are talking about having a second. Unfortunately, we moved out of state. I loved having Dr. P as my doctor so much that my husband and I have actually considered going back to California to have her deliver our second. Dr. P is direct and to the point, she isn't going to waste your time with all those silly little details about your pregnancy unless you ask (oh, and I asked) or unless she thinks its necessary. I probably should of had a c-section but Dr.P knew how important it was to me, not to have one. She pushed ( Well, I did the pushing) it till the very last second, and luckily I didn't have to have a c-section. read more

Sad, desperately researching for a doctor who takes my insurance and can help with my very specific needs (high risk and need a knowledgable doctor) but she isn't accepting pregnant patients. Why do this? Im only a few weeks pregnant and when you need a doctor the most, they wont see you. Sorry, that's not a good doctor to close a door like that to potential patients who are seeking help. read more

Dr. Pushkin is the best doctor I have ever had. I live and work no where near her office and I refuse to go anywhere else. She and her staff are amazing. They're always so helpful and accommodating and Dr. Pushkin always tells you everything straight and is brutally honest. I love it. read more

Just a note for the women who have to wait- because she does deliver babies, Dr. P's schedule is subject to the whims of the other pregnant patients who go into labor. And as you know, when you're pregnant, you've gotta go to the office once a month, minimum, so the odds of you getting your appointment pushed back rise. A bit of advice - call ahead to ask if she's running on time - the receptionist will usually be honest and tell you you've got a bit more time to spare. read more

I have been wanting to write this review for a while. Dr. Pushkin delivered my first baby and was professional, warm, thoughtful, and very good clinically. Her office medical assistant and front desk staff were also great. I have subsequently moved to another OB (who is also amazing) but I am grateful to have had an excellent experience with Dr. Pushkin for baby #1. Highly recommend to anyone who is considering her, you will not regret it! read more

Great office wonderful staff and excellent Dr (Sharon P.) she's very open and genuine and takes a good amount of time getting to know you as a new patient...also goes above to accommodate any specific and special needs you may have as a patient (within her means) to make you comfortable and maintain your trust. read more

ARROGANT! I am pregnant and my endocrinologist referred me to Dr. Pushkin, who works in the same office. I called to inquire about meeting Dr. Pushkin, and her receptionist informed me that the doctor is "too busy" to bring herself to do meet and greets for new patients. I asked that the receptionist please confirm this with the doctor, as I was referred to her by one of her office colleagues. Next day, it was confirmed. Sorry--no meet and greets. I am trying to find a suitable doctor to whom I will entrust the precious responsibility of delivering my child. To disallow a pregnant woman the chance to ensure a personality match, ask questions about such critical things as episiotomy practices, who will actually be in the hospital to deliver my child, how many c-sections do you perform on a yearly basis, were they planned or emergency, etc, puts the patient at a grave disservice. It is sheer arrogance on the part of this and any doctor not to allow a woman to first meet, feel comfortable with, and then decide for herself that, yes, this is the doctor for me. As a pregnant woman, you are entitled to be as well-informed about your doctor as you see fit, and denying a patient the opportunity to satisfy her inquiries prior to engaging in a patient doctor relationship with an OB is simply unconscionable. Shame on you, Dr. Sharon Pushkin. read more

She is an amazing doctor. She really cares . She researches if need be . I was a special case and she had to fix what a horrible doctor did . She saved me ! I love her ! Office wait can be awhile , but that is because she doesn't rush her patients . It also takes awhile to get an appt. also because she is so great ! read more

I had a privilege of being Dr. Pushkin's patient for more than 15 years. She guided me through my pre-menopause and was always there for me. She even made herself available to give my daughter-in-law (who was not her patient) a second opinion on her pregnancy issue. And these days, in my post-menopause, she is always making sure I am doing my tests and am taking care of my health. Thanks to Dr. Pushkin's concern about my anemia and her persistence that I should see a specialist, we have come to the root of the problem and have it under control. She is a compassionate and wonderful human being and I am so grateful to have her in my life. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Pushkin. read more

A few months ago, Dr. Pushkin delivered my son. I was past my due date but she was very supportive of me not wanting a C section. We agreed on an induction plan that would reduce my chances of having a C section. She also let me keep pushing and deliver him naturally even though his heart rate dropped close to 100 (which is still safe). Some doctors may have rushed into a C section but she didn't. She's also very well connected to the hospital nurses. My first nurse worked for her for 6 years. She delivered my second nurse's child. Now that's a doctor you can trust!! read more

If I could give Dr. Pushkin a 6th star, I would. She's that wonderful. I started going to Dr. Pushkin just before getting pregnant. She delivered my friend's two baby boys and came highly recommended. From my very first visit, I knew she was the doctor for me. She's extremely kind and compassionate and I've never felt like just another patient. On the day I delivered, Dr. Pushkin got to the hospital shortly after we did. And aside from a few minutes, she was with me for nearly 4 hours of pushing. You hear about doctors coming at the very end "to catch the baby", but Dr. Pushkin hung in there with us the whole way. She also supported my desire for natural childbirth. Most doctors would insist on a cesarean after 2 hours of pushing no matter what - but she assessed that it was safe to proceed as long as my baby's heartbeat was strong. We delivered a healthy, thriving baby boy. I need to emphasize that Dr. Pushkin's bedside manner can't be beat. She's extremely caring. She's even called me on her way home to check on me. She really is wonderful. I wouldn't trust anyone else to deliver my next baby :) read more

Love Dr. Pushkin and her office staff. I feel SO grateful to have found her during my first pregnancy and to have the opportunity to use her again this pregnancy. She has new office space and new staff now and they are great. They know me by name when I walk in the door, and very responsive to anything I need, and pretty much run on schedule. I hate having blood drawn but Jackie makes it nearly painless. Dr. Pushkin never makes me feel rushed like my last OB, and is so laid back. If you are lucky enough to get in to see her, you won't regret it! read more

I LOVE Dr. Pushkin! She delivered both of my babies, one of whom is almost 16, the other is 4. She has an amazing bedside manner that I've never experienced with any other Dr. I've ever had. She is very thorough and knowledgeable that you feel very secure with whatever your needs are. She is a mother herself, so she is very humble and understanding of any question or concern you may have. She doesn't believe in stupid questions and does an amazing job at making you feel relaxed and comfortable. I am never ever rushed when I see her. I wish I could give her 6 stars because she totally deserves it, she really is the BEST! read more

Sharon is the best doctor I've ever had by far! She is so personable and honest. I feel like she's legitimately invested in giving every single one of her patients great care. She's also an IUD ninja! I had one inserted and it barely hurt at all! read more

I had been going to Dr. Pushkin for several years before I became pregnant with my first. It was important for me to find an OB that was close to my work, had pleasant bedside manners, and would deliver babies. I only saw her once a year during my annual exams, but she was always really nice, made me feel comfortable, and remembered who I was (unlike most doctors that you hardly see). Last year I got pregnant and came to know Dr. Pushkin and her office staff much better. What I really like about Dr. Pushkin is that she's traditional ...meaning that she does not get caught up in what I should and shouldn't be doing/eating. She always puts me at ease, even if I accidentally ate Tiramisu or took a medication I shouldn't have taken. Above all, she has tremendous amount of experience in the delivery room and I know I will be in great hands when the time comes. Beyond Dr. Pushkin, I also really like her office staff. Everyone there (Neko, Sandy, Christina, and especially Jackie) is awesome and always so helpful. Just before Thanksgiving, my husband accompanied me to my appointment and they noticed that his feet was swollen; right away everyone in the office got involved and help my husband land an emergency appointment to see the office manager's husband, who happened to be a podiatrist down the block. If they hadn't had noticed, my husband would have been in severe pain for the holidays. I know that Dr. Pushkin is very busy and might not accept new patients, but if you're lucky and she has an opening, definitely try and have her as your OB! read more

I have been meaning to write a review about how awesome Dr Pushkin is for ages. She was my doctor for 6 years, and I'm only now writing this because I have moved and can't find anyone nearly as good. She is thoughtful, thorough and knowledgeable. Never rushed and always professional. I hear she has a wait list for new patients now, I would say to get on it! I have recommended her to friends and 100% recommend her again. read more

Dr Sharon Pushkin is the best obgyn, I stopped going to her for 2 yrs because I didn't have insurance. Big mistake went to a Dr that doesn't even listen to you. Finally went back today for my yearly exam she is the same kindly, lovable and caring person. She makes you feel welcome and comfortable and her front office staff is very friendly. There is a 4 week wait to book an appointment with her, but it's worth the wait. read more

Dr. Sharon Pushkin is a fantastic gyno & doctor. She is a good listener.

I love Dr. Sharon Pushkin. I've only seen her once after moving to CA from NY. I liked my Dr. in NY a lot and was worried about finding a Dr. out here that was comparable. Most got bad reviews online, but my insurance limited the Dr's I could see. I'm so glad I found her. I went in to have a procedure done, I didn't have to wait in the waiting room at all, and I was in the exam room only long enough to change into my gown before she came in. She was very friendly, answered all of my questions and I didn't feel rushed. She even personally called me to give me the results instead of having someone in her office call me like my old Dr. The only reason I gave her 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the location. It's convenient enough to get to, however it seems like you have to pay for parking anywhere you can find, even though I was only there total less than 40 minutes, I paid an additional $10 for parking! read more

Fantastic doctor. Very knowledgeable and responsive. The office runs on time and I highly recommend her.
