As a new patient, there are a few things I look for when I start at a new practice. A welcoming front desk, a doctor that listens and cares and professionalism. My appointment was great the front desk workers were inviting, the doctor was attentive and helpful and I actually thought I had found a great doctors office. The problem came two months later when I received a bill in the mail for a procedure that I did not need or ask for. I called to inquire about it and Christy in billing was the person that spoke with me. She was rude from the moment she got on the phone till she got off. She was so rude in fact, I will not be coming back to this doctor. After such a glowing experience, it’s a shame that Christy’s actions have tarnished what this hospital stands for, but for me, she has.

Dr. Ellis is the absolute best. She is so warm and kind. You can absolutely tell that she cares about you. She takes the time to remember little details about your life. Her nurse Lauren is awesome too! She is always smiling and so sweet. Every staff member I’ve interacted with at Bham OBGYN has been so friendly and welcoming. Can’t recommend this office enough.

I have been a long time patient of this office and just had my baby 7 months ago. I love the doctor but I can’t tolerate the behavior of one of the staff named Wendy. I’m not sure why this office no longer wants to prescribe Diflucan but not everyone can take the same thing you want to offer and it be the only choice. Wendy was very rude to me with no manners or professionalism. She told me I had two choices and that was to get something over the counter or do a phone consultation and the second one isn’t an option since we are between insurances and then she hung up on me. It’s pretty bad when you have to go through a Teledoc service to get the medicine you know you have always taken and need. Do better.

As I lay in bed this morning with my heavy heart and wrenching gut. I am hurt to the core with visit yesterday with my sixteen year old daughter. She has had some issues with her cycle and I took her to see a doctor that I was not familiar with. I dont understand how a parent can be a parent and have to go through what I have. I was asked by my daughter not to come in and I respectfully understood that request and stayed out. I also had an appointment so when I was out I asked where she was and my nurse pointed me in that direction. I calmly walked down to where she and the tech were. I asked for my daughter and the tech says that she is going to get her some water shes a upset. I say Water? I began to shake knowing what has happened. I text and call. She answered and I asked to come in. She said no and my hands are tied. I am asked to sit in the hall as others walked by crying my eyes out. I am told that I have to wait in the main waiting room. I couldnt bare it so I walked in the hallway crying out to my husband. I am then asked back in so the doctor can try to convince me that I didnt know what is best for my child when I tried to suggest other options. I tried to express how I felt. In return I got a story about his daughter 20 years ago. I was told shes trying to please me. I had already seen another doctor in that building that I asked questions about how a diet change, supplements, minerals, and vitamins might be an effective way to help. Yet for this doctor wanting to know what doctor would ever say that. I understand patient confidence and you were her doctor but I am the one who loves and cares for her on a daily basis. I dont understand how I wasnt even considered. I wasnt unreasonable. I have been a patient in this office for 10 years. And have never felt so belittled in my life. If I could give no stars I would.

Dr Roberts was amazing. He took time to listen to my concerns. The receptionists and the nurses were very friendly. I like the way they organized the patients to ensure a limited number of people in the praxis due to Corona. Would definitely recommend.

I love this place!!! Dr. Ellis and her nurse are the absolute best and make annual visits a breeze. The office staff is always welcoming. They are also taking the best precautions during COVID-19.

Been using this practice for 4-5 years. Dr. McKee is the best hands down! He delivered my first pregnancy and also my second which was twins. Dr. McKee truly cares about his patients, and has always made me feel comfortable and helped with any problems I have had. I am so thankful for him because due to my high risk pregnancies from hypertension with his guidance and care, I now have 3 beautiful healthy babies and had safe deliveries with all.The office staff, ultrasound techs, and nurses are all great too! Everyone is so nice and friendly and I’m so glad I chose this practice as my obgyn. Thank you Dr. McKee, office staff, nurses, and ultrasound techs for always making me feel welcomed and comfortable, you all are awesome!

If youd like to feel like you are at the DMV; rushed, spoken rudely to and feeling dismissed by the front staff and the nurses, then this place is for you

Dr. Damrich and his staff was very welcoming and professional. I would highly recommend BOBGYN.....

Review №10

Awful. After paying $175 upfront before being called back, I went back to wait for the doctor. Not only did they not take any vitals; weight, blood pressure, etc. They did not even perform a pelvic exam or Pap smear. What the hell did I pay $175 for? I’ll tell you, to talk to the doctor for about 10-15 minutes all for her to tell me I need to be on birth control, after repeatedly saying I do not want to take birth control. None of my concerns were addressed, rather just brushed off. I will never be back.

Everyone is so incredibly helpful. I would highly recommend this practice to all females. I am such a worry wart, and they have expedited some tests so I would have answers. Dr. Orso was extremely nice and very knowledgeable! I am blessed to have found them.

Arrived at 9:30am for an appointment at 10am. Nurse got my vitals at 9:55am and send me back to the front waiting room. It is 10:30am and still waiting..... whats the point of making appointments if not sticking to the time?Update: got in within 5 min after talked to the front office at around 10:45. Dr. came in within 15min after in the room. The visit is over around 11am.

Ive been using this office for 10 years. I love the staff and doctors. I think Ive seen all the doctors here through checkups and the birth of my first son 10 yrs ago. For the past 9 months, Ive been seeing Dr. Roberts. He delivered my son last Friday. Dr. Roberts is great.

The staff was very nice. The physician I saw while I was pregnant was disappointing / disengaged. I am currently looking for a surrogate because I have such a great of a similar experience in the future.

Parking at St. Vincents is a nightmare, but thats not the offices fault. Ive had only wonderful experiences with my doctor (Dr. Carter) and the staff. They are friendly, timely and helpful if you have any questions. My only qualm would be the fact that each individual doctors nurse has to make their appointments, and more often than not they arent around to answer your call right away, but they always get back in a timely manner.

I was an refferel by a co- worker who assured me Dr. McKee was an amazing and kind man. My experience was horrible. Dr. McKee didnt even look at my records that were transferred over by my previous doctor and retook the same bloodwork she did . He was very negative and harsh. He looked at me as a another statistics. Another Black, older, overweight, uneducated pregnant woman. He didnt look at me as a person. He assumed I would develop all these issues throughout my pregnancy ,seems like he just wants to do a cesarean to get more money. Little did he know that I eat healthy and exercise everyday and he was telling me nothing I didnt already know because I do my research which if he would have actually gotten to know me and actually cared who i was as a person. The best experience i had was the staff and the nurse who did my ultrasound. Such a shame I had to tell my co worker that my experience was nothing like hers and she was very disappointed and spent the whole day apologizing to me. Now my co worker is high risk pregnancy and overweight. Its funny that she said he never mentioned her being overweight.She was very surprised that he clearly jumped on me about being overweight. The sad part is my coworker is white so that leaves me to feel as if it was because of my race. I will not be returning. I would like to thank all of the staff for their support and kindness it made my visit not a complete loss being that it is my first pregnancy.

The doctors are wonderful. However, the billing office will go through extraordinary lengths to get a payment from you. They are rude and they lie. The collection agency will give out your personal information to get in touch with you and then will lie on what the amount they will take. The collection agency was confronted by the business office and lied again. Also, the billing office will mark your chart where you cant be seen regardless of issue, even pregnant. Worst billing office I have ever had to deal with. The afternoon appointments waiting periods are awful too.

Reading these reviews, the place seems horrible but I see Dr. Damrich and that man is a sweetheart. I am always very well taken care of and even when he was out of the office and I had to be seen by his partners, they were very kind. Parking is a nightmare but thats the hospital in general. If you are looking into this practice I would 100/100 recommend David Damrich. He delivered my baby boy and a few of my friends babies and everything was as perfect as child birth can be.

I absolutely love my Dr.M Christine! I had a bad experience with an other physician and she restored my faith in the group. I have seen Dr. Christine for over 3 years now, never had an issue! I guess its all in who you choose!

Felt like a car wash. Didn’t listen to any of my concerns or needs, just did the Pap smear and the doctor was proud of how quick the appointment went. I was not impressed that my yearly was so rushed and the doctor was condescending when I asked about different treatments. They only care about pushing numbers here not the actual patient.

Review №27

Parking is a pain. Christine is nice but always always late. I loved Dr. Ellis. My biggest frustration is that Dr. McKee was on call and delivered my son and yelled at me to shut up while I was giving birth then yelled at my Doula who is also a personal friend. Stay away from that guy.

I really dont understand how this place has a low rating. Baffling. The staff has never been anything but kind and courteous to me, theyve even taken me back when I arrived to an appointment an hour EARLY (by accident, totally my fault but they were great and didnt make me feel like I was being a inconvenience at all). Im an OB patient and I see Dr Przybysz who is the most understanding and calming OB ever! Anything Ive wanted or needed they provided to me and theyve fit me in when I needed without frustration or judgement. Professional, courteous, and fun- Im so glad I chose this place to bring my baby into the world!

Terrible. I walked out after 2 hours and no one could figure out how to refund my copay that was collected up front. Ruined my day off. And got nothing done. Never even saw a doctor. Then they told me Id better stay because I might have cancer. What???

Review №31

The absolute worst appointment I have ever had with a doctor. I had an appointment at 4:00pm. Dr. Orso tried to cancel my appointment six minutes before I arrived. Once I arrive at my appointment, I met a young lady in the waiting room that mentioned that she had been waiting 45 minutes for her appointment. After I was called back and the usual weight and lab, I was supposed to have a consult with Dr. Orso. He refused to have a consult with me. My entire appointment he kept looking down at his watch saying I have somewhere I have to be. I felt I was a inconvenience. No patient should ever feel this way. Especially for an appointment that has been made for over a month. He should have called and rescheduled my appointment since he was so busy. Finally, the young lady from the lobby was seen by him, because the doctor she was supposed to see had left for the day. This will probably get deleted. But this is my truth about Birmingham OBGYN.
