Verified patient
Appt was on 08/29/17 - Dr DeSouza is an amazing doctor, but after my experience yesterday, I guess I'll have to look for another OBGYN. My annual appointment for my PAP was scheduled for 2:15pm and I got there 2:00pm. At 2:18pm I was already in a room in a gown waiting to be seen by Dr. DeSouza. I waited for about 45 minutes and no one came in to provide an update. As I was about to call the front desk, the nurse came in and apologized for the wait but Dr DeSouza was pulled in by another doctor to do a consultation with a patient. I said for so long and she said yes I don't know why it's taking so long but you're next. She asked if I wanted to see Giselle the NP and I said no. My reason is because Giselle is very unpleasant and unfriendly to deal with. It seems like she's always in a bad mood. I'm sorry I'm not comfortable exposing my womanly parts to such an unpleasant person. Anyway I waited another 10 minutes and the nurse came in again and said she's sorry Dr DeSouza is still in there. I waited for 1 hour and 20 minutes and still was not seen. I got dressed and left the room. I stopped by the front desk and told the woman there I had been waiting for so long and still was not seen and it's not right. She said Dr DeSouza had an emergency. Now I was really upset. Was it an emergency or was she doing a consultation? Was she even there? This is the not the first time this happened. I had issues in the past with waiting for extended periods of time. I would have been okay if someone came in and said Dr DeSouza had an emergency and had to leave can you reschedule? I lost 3 hours of work yesterday because of this. Dr DeSouza is an amazing doctor but I cannot keep going through this. Many times in the past I have specifically stated I wanted to see Dr DeSouza and I confirmed the appointment was made with Dr DeSouza and when I ot there Giselle came in the room. This is not right. Dr DeSouza is a good doctor but if I cannot see her, why should I keep visiting this office? There are plenty other great doctors out there. Unfortunately I'll have to find one.
She is very nice
Verified patient
She was great. Came right from an emergency sea section and had a room full of patients that were pregnant. I think she shares the space with other doctors who may or may not work underneath her. This was my first obgyn visit as I am getting married in sept 2017, she made me feel very comfortable. The video's we not as informative as I was hoping they'd be - they do include different birth control options, what a pap smear is & etc. Her team was nice and I overall enjoyed the visit. She wasn't able to get my pap-smear done but she was informative, kind & gentle. I highly recommend.
Verified patient
Professionals handle, listen carefully about the problem, Checked properly,recommend any test if needed and prescribed Medison. Always call after visit to find about how the patient feeling. I am very satisfy under the treatment of Dr.Desouza and highly recommend to others.
Verified patient
Great
Verified patient
I think the doctor (DeSouza) is wonderful, which is why I waited a very long time ( over an hour in the treatment room) to be able to see her. They asked if I would see her associate, but I don't know her and didn't make my appointment with her. Last year I didn't get to see the doctor but the nurse practitioner was available so I saw her rather than wait an extra hour. I don't think I'm being unreasonable in wanting to see Dr. DeSouza for my once a year (annual) check-up!
Verified patient
Great doc.
Verified patient
Great doctor, horrible office system - long wait times, a lot of confusion with records. They entered my date of birth wrong on thri patient portal. Wondering what else they got wrong...
I had a very sensitive situation but Dr. Alison and her team took great care of me. They were genuinely caring and made sure I was well taken care of. The office staff is nice and I never waited more than 15 minutes to be seen.
