He was probably the nicest doctor I’ve ever met. He respected my choices on how I manage my hormones and was a great listener. He was funny and kind. I’ve been thinking about changing doctors for a while now, I’m just sad I didn’t come to this office sooner.

Dr Linder was very nice. His sense of humor put me at ease. I will definitely be using them again.
Couldnt guve 4.5?.
Didn't give 5 stars because the office didn't send over 2 perscriptions he said they would.
Otherwise definitely use Dr Linder!

After many, many, many years of avoiding the GYN I finally made up my mind to face my fears. I was able to get a same day appointment which helped with the anxiousness. Dr. Linder was wonderful. His sense of humor and kind bedside manner was exactly what I needed. I felt totally comfortable and felt like he was able to explain everything and did all he could to get things done during this visit. The office does a lot of testing right there eliminating the need to drag the process on to other facilities. The staff was also so attentive and kind. I highly recommend Dr. Linder and know I will follow up yearly now.
October 1, 2024Patricia H.Verified patient
I met Dr. Linder for the first time today and he immediately put me at ease. I came in with a few health concerns and was impressed with how thorough he was and the time he took to speak with me. The staff were all extremely friendly and professional. Overall, they run a great practice and I just wish I had found them sooner :)

wonderful and very easy
October 5, 2022Hope C.Verified patient
I was a new patient and Dr. Linder made me feel very comfortable. He was kind & compassionate. He took the time to have a nice personal conversation to get to know me for a couple of minutes in the post examination discussion in his office. I was so relieved and comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Linder. The experience was great from appointment setting, to staff greeting, forms, exam, etc. Gabrielle, a learning doctor there, was wonderful also. She took time to ask questions and also made me feel very at ease.
September 26, 2022Charlene M.Verified patient
Excellent been seeing this doctor for years!
August 13, 2022Anita K.Verified patient
I've been using this doctor since I had gotten pregnant with my first child, multiple appointment issues (time changes, existing appt errors), extensive time waiting in room with no seating available, and waiting to speak to doctor 2+ hours at times, appointments usually last about a half hour with the other 1.5 hours keeping you seated waiting for doctor. last time I was there almost 3 hours and didn't get to speak with the doctor, I had come because of a complication due to being high risk, he was too busy to speak with me and I asked him to call me and didn't hear back for over 4 days, by this point I already had seen a different doctor and switched over. constant issues, would not recommend. also - they do not answer the phone it will ring for 15 minutes and say voice-mail is full/hang up.
August 2, 2022Nicole K.Verified patient
I had some problems with the billing dept due to a prior visit and didn’t want to visit the practice again but due to a problem i went because I had to see the Dr. Hopefully I don’t have problems with billing again bc the drs in this practice are phenomenal and I feel really at ease when I’m there and taken care of.

Been going to Dr Linder for over 20 years. Would never go anywhere else. Him and his staff are sweet, professional, and just great people.
January 13, 2022Tara F.Verified patient
This doctor means well. But he needs to retire. He made me feel so uncomfortable. He kept forgetting information That was said less then 2 mins ago. How can I trust someone to help me through a pregnancy if he admitted that he does not remember his name sometimes.
