Gynecology:
A well woman examination is an exam offered to women to review elements of their reproductive health. It is recommended once a year for most women. The exam includes a breast examination, a pelvic examination and a pap smear but may also include other procedures.
I've always had the best experiences with the Oakdale OBGYN staff. From check-in, to my doctor, to the labs. Love them all.
The wait time was not long and per usual, Dr. Allen was interested in my concerns- listening attentively to provide me her medical opinion.
The Dr. was very pleasant and seemed to be concerned about me as a patient.
Dr. Couret engages with me meaningfully. She asks questions and listens to answers. I also really, really like how connected and coherent my annual visits are--she recalls significant discussion points from my previous visits and continues our conversation. I feel very well cared for.
Very thorough exam and all my questions answered
Examine went well. The doctor explained symptoms.
I continue to be a patient because of the wealth of knowledge provided, sense of safety, and proximity of the hospital to the office, however I always feel rushed at my appointments. I feel like I have to talk at an increase speech rate just to get all my questions in while staff has one hand on the doorknob ready to leave the room. I don't have a sense of interest in my concerns or questions. If staff sees nothing wrong on the surface than to them the visit went well and there is no need to spend more time in the exam room. I feel a minimal amount of care/time is given for patient concerns or questions and always feel rushed.
Dr. Jamieson is always very thorough and kind.
Professional treatment
The doctor and his nurse assistant were very kind and patient.
Dr. Ross is friendly, calm, and experienced. I feel very comfortable talking with her.
Dr. Ella is always kind and professional.
Dr. Soufi took the time to answer all my questions. She didn't rush through anything and I had her undivided attention. I left more informed after talking with her.
Dr BonPain was kind, thorough, and so incredibly likeable.
Dr. Stuckey was professional and took time for my questions. Very good appointment.
Dr. Kleinerman is very warm and welcoming; puts me right at ease
Dr. Masiky always takes the time to listen to all of my concerns, answers all my questions and never makes me feel as if she is rushing off to her next patient.
Dr. Gem makes me feel relaxed and comfortable. She asks you questions. She follows up with me about anything we spoke about in previous appointments. Dr. Ashby always shows genuine concern for my physical and emotional wellbeing. She is wonderful!
She knows my history, answered all my questions and spent a lot of time with me. She maintains a good relationship.
Dr Pak spent as much time as needed discussing well being and risk/benefits of various contraceptions and medical conditions. She was honest but sensitive and very helpful!
