Review №1

Surprised to read so many bad reviews. This is not to discredit anyone else’s experiences with Dr. Sodini because they deserve to be heard and treated with respect. It just seems so opposite of the doctor I’ve seen for over 10 years. She has always been kind, understanding and empathetic. She was the first doctor who discovered my endometriosis and recommended my surgeons. I was pleasantly surprised when she appeared at my bedside in the hospital right before my surgery. I was so nervous and she reassured me. It’s this compassion and thoughtfulness that made me a lifelong patient. It saddens me greatly that other patients have not had similar experiences. I even started taking my teenage daughter to her because of her kindness and she helped ease my daughter’s anxiety over her own battle with endometriosis.

This is my first ever review on anything. However, I wanted to take the time to provide caution to anyone considering going to Dr. Sodini. She, as well as the staff and nurses were all dismissive, incompetent, and rude. I was given incorrect information about scheduling a test and could never get anyone to call me back. Dr. Sodini seems to only care about being able to bill as much as possible. She made a stressful situation much worse. Ive never in my life had a problem with a doctor until seeing her. Stay away.

Dr. Sodini was the worst experience with a physician that I have ever had. This was my second appointment with her, the first in 2018, for an annual physical. I felt awkward during my initial encounter because she was dismissive and made me feel so disrespected with the faces she made every time I asked a question. That being said, I wanted to give her another chance, so I went in for an appointment on 7/18/2019.I booked this appointment in the end of May and had to wait a month and half to see her. My appointment was scheduled for 2:45pm, I was there by 2:30pm, i was taken in at 2:50. A nurse came and told me to put the examination gown and left, I waited for over 40 minutes and no one came to check on me. Finally I left the room almost naked asking what the delay was, no one has been to my room with an update. That was when a nurse was completely rude and gave me the worst attitude.Finally Dr. Sodini came in by 3:40, almost an hour later, to my examination room. I told her what happened and she said, Ill ask you to be nicer to my staff. I was surprised by the lack of compassion, after waiting an hour her response was Ive been with patients with harder and more difficult conditions. Which belittled me as a patient and made my time seem worthless to her.After the initial disrespectful interaction, I proceeded with my appointment, the experience with her was no better. Every time I had a question she seemed upset that I was even bringing the subject matter up. I went in for an IUD consultation, so i had questions in order to be fully informed patient, she rushed me and basically ran out of the room within 15 mins.The lack of punctuality and professionalism was unbelievable, to then have the physician insult me on top of it.I would never return to this office and I would never recommend this physician to anyone. Our health is so important to be treated so poorly by a physician who seemed so indifferent about my time and well being.

Dr. Sodini, Irma is an excellent medical provider. She was knowledgeable and kind, explaining everything in a way that was understandable and applicable. The supportive staff (ROXIE - The Medical Assistant) was efficient and personable and made it so that my visit was quick and enjoyable. They did an excellent job as a team in providing me with excellent care.

Im so glad Im not the only one who feels that Dr. Sodini has no compassion or empathy. Ive met with her 5 times over the past year, unfortunately. Ironically, my PCP recommended her on the basis that she has good bedside manner (compared with another gyno who apparently has bad bedside manner). But she literally made me cry the last time I saw her and didnt seem to care. Her office has messed up my billing and her reaction when I told her was to shrug and tell me she has nothing to do with that. That may be true, but it happened in her office and shrugging off the responsibility makes her seem childish. She managed to completely misdiagnose my problems. And the advice she gave me the last time I met with her was completely contradictory to the advice given to me by the specialist she sent me to. Also, the walls where she practices are paper-thin. Perhaps consider getting more insulation? I would think that violates patient privacy/HIPPA since I could hear exactly what was said with the patient in the next room.I assume she didnt start out this way since my PCP tried to explain away her actions when I brought these concerns to him and seeing the reviews below from 2 years ago. He told me her personality isnt this way, but shes rushed, overworked, and stressed out. Thats fine, but that doesnt change how she treats her patients. She seems judgmental and lacking in compassion and frankly, Im going to find a different doctor who actually makes me feel heard.
