“I was not raised being brought to a Gynecologist, so the first time I went I was very nervous. Dr. Behar and his staff we very kind and welcoming. The receptionists are always sweet and greet you right away. I love the P.A’s and sonogram technicians as well. I went through my first pregnancy with them and plan to do so when my husband and I are ready to expand our family.
I had a c-section. And while I have my own qualms and feelings about having the have the surgery…Dr.Behar was amazing. My recovery was wonderful and I’m very happy with what little of my scar you can see, it’s very smooth and he did a great job. He is a good combination of realistic & comforting, he can seem nonchalant but you can also tell he cares and is actually listening when you voice questions and concerns.”

“Dr. Behar has been my GYN for at least 15 years now and I even followed him when he left a different practice to mainly focus on his own. He is an amazing doctor and I highly recommend him.”
