    Dr Reese came highly recommended from some coworkers of mine, I checked her reviews and after…read moremeeting her she exceeding my expectations. I can tell she is very knowledgable and in high demand! I had a very complicated pregnancy and she held my hand every step of the way. The practice has 5 doctors and they want you to meet them all so you know them very well but towards the end if you have a specific request when you do your birth plan they try to have that doctor deliver you. These doctors work very hard delivering babies, doing surgeries, some nights they don't sleep so I know it must be hard for them..but THEY ALL were caring and compassionate so in the end I didn't have a preference. Dr Reese delivered my little girl, ensured my family was there and even helped me take really cute pictures, she didn't cut me and I didn't tear!! It was such a beautiful experience!! I'll have these memories for a life time...going through the pregnancy was rough and hormonal and scary and I was afraid to do it again...but now I'm back to see them ;) I would encourage you Lillibeth to give them another try it sounds like a lot of miscommunication ...I have been in Coral Springs for 15yrs, your not going to find another practice like them and get all the attention and care you need unless you probably go to see a doctor that is solo ... And even a doctor that is solo may not deliver you because it's impossible for them to be oncall 365 nights a year...these other practices have other doctors covering for them so when it's time for you to deliver...a complete stranger is delivering your baby...Good luck!!

    About 9 months ago I found out from my primary care doctor that I had a very large fibroid. I found…read moremyself in search of a new OBGYN.I needed someone who would listen to me, give me options and honesty. I live closer to Peoria than Bloomington however after calling almost every OBGYN in the Peoria area and either being rejected because I was not currently pregnant,told that there was no available appointments for approx. 6 months or just not willing to even consider a clinic where the front desk staff was so rude that you knew they just hated their jobs I found Dr. Santiago's office. I was so relieved when I called the office and the front desk staff super was nice, they could get me in within a couple weeks, their first question wasn't "do you have insurance and what kind?" I don't know what it is about that being one of the first questions that bugs me so much...I think maybe because it just seems like money is the only thing that's important. I get it they want paid but it could be after a series of other important questions. Anyways, let's skip to my first appointment. The front desk staff were super nice and professional, the wait was minimal. Dr. Santiago explained what having a fibroid my size meant and unfortunately my only options involved surgery. He explained the pros and cons to both options, listened to all of my concerns, was super compassionate and ordered an MRI so there could be more clear cut measurements/location so I could make an appropriate decision. All my other visits/conversations with Dr. Santiago were compassionate and he listened and answered all of my questions. At times I was very emotional and he was so caring and understanding. I decided to have a hysterectomy, to say that I was nervous would be an understatement but Dr. Santiago took very good care of me. My uterus ended up being very large making it more difficult to pull off a robotic surgery but instead of taking the easy route and making a giant cut across my belly he took the extra time and I only had 5 cuts resulting is less healing time on my end. If you are in need of a good doctor, look no further!

    After seeking care at the end of March, for an infection I have to say I wouldn't recommend them. I…read morehave insurance which they billed as new patient care (fine, but honestly 240.00 is pretty high), however the experience was uncomfortable and Amanda Boitnott seemed to have rather unconventional practices for diagnosis and treatment. I entered the office (early for my appt- relevant to the phone call I just had with office management), and was greeted and asked to fill out paperwork- totally standard and their office waiting area is really* nice almost spa like. I thought wow this is a great start! Then I get called back quickly and the paperwork I had only half filled out (I and my family have unfortunately a long history of medically relevant things I have to write on that sheet), when I mentioned this the nurse said "it doesn't matter I'll ask you the relevant questions". That was off putting and then a quick (and I mean quick) pre-exam was done where I mentioned I am trying to get pregnant, and so far nothing has happened was scrawled on the form and she told me to get undressed and wait for the dr. So I'm waiting and the PA comes in, and starts the exam. She's kind of dismissive and then does the exam where she says my issues should clear on their own and I don't need medication. No swabs were done, no inquiry about discomfort, but did say that micro tears could be the cause. She then says "if you're not pregnant in 6 months I'd like to do a follicle exam and make sure you're still able to have babies. Even if you still get your monthlies it would be helpful to know where you're at." There was an over all dismissive nature to my original complaints and then almost a prompting of trying to get me to consent to other services- similar to being at a car dealership. It was extremely uncomfortable and I left with the same issues I came in with. With that said I received a bill for what was left that insurance didn't cover and when I called the office manager was also extremely dismissive. She then said that the PA could have charged me at a level 4 from the time I walked into the building to the time I left, but only charged me a level 3, and that because she's so conservative for her patients she doesn't do swabs unless there's something ABUNDANTLY obvious. Excuse me? So you're disregarding patients complaints and deciding that they'll go away on their own? Spoiler alert it didn't and I had to go buy monistat and treat the issue myself. She then went into how I clearly don't know how insurance works (which maybe I'm no savant but like, if someone doesn't do anything for you and gives you mad anxiety regarding medical care, do you pay them?) I would have been better off going to planned parenthood. At least if I had to pay them, they would have done something for me. Must have been and easy 240.00.... I'm honestly disgusted with the lack of care and professionalism displayed by this office.

    Dr. Kindred was my doctor for over 15 years. I was under his care with full-blown cervical/uterine…read morecancer. My tumor was so big, ER doctors first thought it was a dead baby. When the surgeon went to remove it, he said it was pushing my bladder almost completely closed, had spread to my lymph nodes, was in my bowels, and somehow into my ureters. My kidneys were beginning to shut down. The oncologist also said he was surprised I could urinate anymore. When they first gave me the news of the "mass" and told me how large it was, I knew that was IMPOSSIBLE because Kindred had just tied my tubes only 3 months before! I really trusted Dr. Kindred. I had been having cancer symptoms for nearly two years and going in for bleeding between my cycles. I felt like I was getting extra menstrual cycles. He gave me my regular gynecological care, which was normal and would take labs and say my hormones needed to be adjusted. Now, I feel like a fool for this, but I trusted him. In the hospital, I had to have an emergency radical hysterectomy. I needed so much cancer treatment that my quality of life is now very poor. I have severe lymphedema in my right leg that will NEVER go away, I now am at risk for lung cancer, my bone marrow is shutting down from all the chemo and radiation, I can't eat a normal diet anymore and have chronic pain in my bladder, leg, digestive tract, vagina, and rectum. Towards my diagnosis date, I definitely realized something was wrong because I started having pain but I NEVER dreamt that I was walking around with advanced cancer. I even had a "normal" pap smear and asked how that was possible. My gyne oncologist told me that is was a poor quality pap smear because he said that there was no way I didn't have cancer when Dr. Kindred took the last smear. The best part is that when I went to get a copy of my chart, he removed most of my visits. Guess he was more concerned about being sued than my health. Doctors are human beings and as a patient, I feel like they are going to make mistakes. I accept that fact and know it's all part of the risk. Dr. Kindred showed absolutely zero remorse for what happened to me as a result of his negligence and took no responsibility. Removing parts of my health record to cover his own ass was inhuman. Doctors have no idea how far taking a little responsibility for a screw up can go for the patient they made the mistake on. I feel like taking the risk and being vulnerable enough to admit you screwed up would probably lower their risk of malpractice. I have recently passed my 5 year treatment anniversary and 38% of the women with my diagnosis make it this far. I'm grateful to be in that 38% but mourn that 62% that didn't make it and even experience survivor's guilt. I'm quite proud of my strength and endurance. Having cancer has certainly shown me that I am quite the fighter, a silver lining, I suppose, and there are many of those for sure. Until Dr. Kindred takes some responsibility for the hurt he has inflicted upon some of his patients, myself included, I wouldn't trust him to euthanize someone's dying pet.

    I like Dr. Kindred. He's been my gyn for around 12 years, the only gyn I've ever had. He's made me…read morefeel comfortable and I feel like he takes the time to explain things to me. I've got issues and have had about a dozen visits there this year and he will soon perform surgery on me and I feel very comfortable with that. I've not felt like his staff is rude at all, but not overly friendly either. I think they can work on that and smile or chat more. I also think for being such a big, aesthetically nice environment, it would be nice to have water and/or coffee available. I would give five stars, but this doctor is popular and busy and it is true - if you just have an annual exam, it's harder to get in than if you are pregnant or are having other procedures done, and even though I have issues, it's still usually 4 weeks before I can get in for follow ups. Sonograms have been quick and easy and I don't wait in the waiting room for very long, but I have waited almost an hour in the exam room in the past. The exam rooms are a little chilly and could have some reading material in there. Although I wait, when I see Dr. K, I feel like he is not rushing me and will answer all of my questions thoroughly and that is most important. I'd rather him take the time with patients and that way he will take his time with me. There was only one time that Dr. K was not available, so his NP did my exam, no biggie. I also like that Dr. K is an expert in fertility issues and likes to use less invasive homeopathic treatments. He is friendly to my hubby who typically accompanies me to appointments and he likes to joke too.
