They are kind, knowledgeable, and supportive, but the front office and administrative side has been consistently frustrating. The administrative staff is disorganized and unprofessional. They frequently mix up appointment times, give conflicting information, and make even simple tasks feel unnecessarily difficult. They don't use email or an online portal to send updates, test results, or appointment confirmations, which makes it almost impossible to keep track of anything. Everything has to be done by phone, and the communication is often curt or dismissive. Another major frustration is that any time I need bloodwork, I have to schedule a completely separate appointment with a third-party lab instead of being able to do it in-office. This makes routine prenatal care far more inconvenient than it needs to be. I really wanted to have a good experience here, especially since the clinical care from the midwives has been positive, but the front-office management has caused so much stress and confusion that I'm choosing to switch practices. I hope they improve their administrative processes and communication in the future.

Review Dropped as a…read morePatient for Advocating for Myself Emergencies happen, but respect for patients, their time, and their health should not be optional. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Dr. Pinheiro. My surgery was scheduled a week out, and today's pre-op appointment was supposed to prepare me for it. After waiting 30 minutes on telehealth, I called the office and was told she had an emergency C-section. I completely understand emergencies happen, but I was never called, no voicemail was left, and this was not the first time I had an issue. Out of the four appointments I had with her, she was more than 20 minutes late to two and didn't show up at all for the last. When I spoke with the manager, I explained that I felt nervous and uneasy about moving forward with surgery because I hadn't been able to go over what labs/test needed to be done. I felt brushed aside as a patient. Instead of reassuring me, I was told Dr. Pinheiro was willing to pass along my records to a new provider. I was still willing to proceed and was scheduled to speak with her, but right as I logged in, the manager called back to say Dr. Pinheiro was no longer comfortable performing my surgery because I had expressed discomfort. In other words: if you speak up for yourself, this doctor may refuse your care--even if you've been in pain and bleeding for months. That is exactly what happened to me. I now have to start over with a new provider while still in discomfort.

Dr. Abell is a fabulous ob/gyn. It's been my experience that the vibe you get from the office staff…read moreis telling. That is true in this case. The office staff takes ownership of my questions/concerns. Gets answers and stays courteous. Dr. Abell advised me to have a procedure, under general anesthesia. As with many things related to female reproductive health my concern were the lab results. Dr. Abell is generous with her time, well informed and shared with me that while the results could be problematic, she'd seen four cases of the thousands she'd performed over a lengthy period (I don't remember, 5 years, 10 years) were positive. That changed my outlook from bracing for the worst to expecting the experience to be unremarkable - which it was. The remarkable bit is how wonderful have been my interactions with every member of the team. I wish every physician shared her approach. I can't say I'm looking forward to my next visit - she is a gynecologist but, I trust I'm in good hands and will be treated well.

I originally found Dr. Steen prior to pregnancy after doing my research with recommendations and reviews. I saw all three doctors at Main Street OBGYN throughout my pregnancy. Dr. Steen ended up being the doctor on call toward the end of my labor and delivery. Like most moms, I went in with a birth plan, however, I realized that things could change. I ended up on Pitocin. At one point during pushing, Dr. Steen asked if I wanted to up the dosage of Pitocin, to which I responded no. My husband later told me that he observed Dr. Steen directing the nurse to go against my wishes and increase the dosage. During such a vulnerable and painful moment, it was important to me to feel that my consent and decisions were being honored. Unfortunately, they were not.
