She was extremely efficient and helpful. I have been a patient of Planned Parenthood for many years and have had varied pap smear experiences--today's was by far the easiest and most painless I have ever had.

Dr. Sese was thorough, yet efficient. She was pleasant, asked the most important questions, and gave well-informed responses. Her office and her pleasant attitude made the visit very comfortable.

I thought she was really good, have apprehensions though as she told me that "people die from abortions"... Otherwise she was very helpful and kind. Just thought that was weird to say...

Dr. Sese was great. Her waiting room has the best stack of magazines, even though I only waited about 15 mins for my appointment. She is efficient and quick during the exam, and really easy to talk to with no judgements.

So happy I went to Dr. Sese! Very thorough and knowledgeable. The receptionist was also very kind and informative. I will be going back and I am so happy to have found a great gyno!
July 2, 2013Initials hidden
She is matter-of-fact and knows her medicine, but not a very compassionate or understanding woman. It just depends on what you're looking for; if you need a quick visit and some medicine, she's your lady. But if you're feeling confused about your options, or your life, find another doctor. She was baffled I hadn't had a child by 30, and scoffed at the idea of homeopathic options.

Dr. Sese was very professional, knowledgeable and personable; everything you want in a gynocologist. Her office staff were friendly and efficient.
December 5, 2012Debra P.Verified patient
I was not satisfied with my visit to Dr. Sese. I went in with a very open mind and positive attitude, despite some negative reviews I had read. My main issue was the condition and cleanliness of the office/exam rooms. The office was very dingy and dirty, the cloth used to cover my legs during the pelvic exam had been hanging on one of the stirrups (i.e. it had been used before) and had small stains on it, and the doctor did not wash her hands upon entering the exam room. There was also an old specimen cup that appeared to contain blood just sitting on the counter, as well as random items like a dirty bucket and a space heater around the room. The receptionist showed me to my room (no nurses), asked for my height and weight instead of measuring them, and didn't take the time to gather any medical history. I also felt as if the appointment was rushed, my concerns and questions were not fully answered, and the doctor was a bit out of touch.

Dr. Sese made me feel very comfortable. She was professional and friendly. She was knowledgeable and provided me with many different options for my concerns. I have finally found a gynecologist that I trust and actually like!
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr. Sese was polite and professional, but her office seemed out of date and she did not do a lot of the basic steps I'm used to at an appointment of this nature. For example, she asked me my weight (of which I was not exactly certain) and height rather than weighing and measuring me or having a nurse do so. This was surprising and didn't seem like the correct way to do things.

Very professional.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr. Sese has been my doctor for about 10yrs. but this was my first time seeing her in this office. She saw me right away (about 10 mins. wait) and of course she's an excellent doctor. Very professional. I had a great visit and would highly recommend Dr. Sese.
More than 1 year agoIsolina D.Verified patient
I wish she were still delivering... I loved working with her- very easy to get appointments, she always spent the extra minute to speak with me.

extremely antiquated. No one weighed me or took my blood pressure. All my information was written on a flashcard. Kind of weird.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Like Dr. Sese, not so her assistant who seems to think it's fine to blare her radio for the waiting room
Patients to hear. What about a quiet, stree-free zone? Not with this thoughtless woman in charge. When she had called to confirm my apt, she said it was for 5:15. It was for 3:45. When I told her this she blamed ZocDoc--but themistake was her's. And no apologie for appointments running almost an hour late. So this doctor needs to teach her staff some manners!

I liked that the office was very down to earth. Dr sesse seemed willing to answer all questions and dis not rush me
Out. The receptionist/office assistant was also very sweet both on the phone and in person:-). I also liked the assortment of magazines while i waited.

Dr. Sese was lovely, but her office was dark and grungy. I felt that it wasn't quite clean enough for a proper medical office.

Linda was very honest and nice but the wait time was a bit long even though I was the first apt of the day and arrived a little early. She has limited hours but I would go back to see her again! You just have to make an apt in advance, not great for last min booking.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
This was the best experience I have had at an annual exam so far. I liked that it was in my neighborhood and had a home-feel rather than a hospital. There was a little bit of a wait, but once I was in I was done and out very quickly. Also just a note that Linda likes to see her clients every 6 months, as opposed to a year.

Dr. Sese was knowledgable, friendly and FAST, which is exactly what I want from my GYN. My appointment was at 4:00 (I got there a little early since it was my first time there and I expected paperwork) and we were done by 4:15. Excellent.
