I booked an appointment with Dr. Grier on ZocDoc, but unfortunately there was a mix-up and I booked an appointment on the day she is at the hospital (that mishap is on ZocDoc, NOT Dr. Grier's office). Thankfully, her staff was able to book another appointment for me later in the week. Once I did see Dr. Grier a few days later, I was very impressed with her bedside manner, her friendly and soft spoken tone, and the cleanliness of the office. What I really like about Dr. Grier is her genuine interest in my health and background. She asked me questions that most doctors never asked me before, like what I kept in my fridge and how often I felt depressed, if ever. She really wanted to gain an understanding of my habits to help me get to a healthier place, which I greatly appreciate! She answered all of my questions, gave a lot of helpful information, and never once made me feel rushed or shamed. I have a follow-up in a month and I'm very much looking forward to seeing her again!

Incredible find! Dr. Grier and her staff were very friendly. I felt empowered as a patient and woman by the doctor's approach to my concerns and her overall disposition. She trapped me through each part of the appointment as well so I was clear on what was going on. I would highly recommend her to others!

More about Dr. Melissa Grier, MD
Dr. Melissa Grier is a native Michigander. She received her undergraduate degree at a small school in Michigan by the name of Andrews University in 1997.
She entered medical school at the University of Michigan Medical School, graduating in 2001. Her medical school experience was very exciting, providing exposure to all of the very exciting fields of medicine. In that environment she decided that she would like to pursue Obstetrics and Gynecology as a career. It was evident to her that women's health is an area in need of providers devoted to promoting the special needs of women.
Dedicated to pursuing such a career, she relocated to Los Angeles, California in 2001 where she received training in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Southern California. Her residency training experience was a very fulfilling time where she had the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of so many women in need. It was an experience where she learned the importance of implementing compassion with good clinical judgment under the strain of a busy county hospital. During residency, she also conducted research evaluating the normal range of estrogen levels in postmenopausal women with the objective of furthering our understanding of menopause.
In 2005 she began private practice in Pasadena, California using her past experiences to provide service to the women of that community. Her continued objective is to provide women’s health services in the community. Her special interests include: female pelvic floor dysfunction, urinary incontinence evaluation and treatment, interstitial cystitis; basic infertility work up and treatment to including ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination; all aspects of dysfunctional uterine bleeding and its workup including hydrosonography, diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy; family planning and contraception; menopausal symptoms and treatment of the menopausal women; cervical dysplasia and it’s treatment; and the care of high risk pregnancies. Special surgical interests include an interest to offer minimally invasive surgery via laparoscopy and hysteroscopy. Underscoring this objective is the ideal of practicing evidence-based medicine and compassion with a foundation in the ethical ideals of medical practice.

I really appreciated my time today with Dr. Grier! I am new to town and was turning to Yelp reviews for an OBGYN. I am very thankful that I went to her. Made me feel comfortable, had great bedside manner, told me what she was going to do before doing it, and listened to my concerns about birth control. Only downside was that I probably waited about 20-30 minutes in the room for her. Highly recommend!

Dr. Grier seems very kind and might have many patients in which there is some trouble managing an excess of appointments. Unfortunately, I waited 2 hours after my scheduled appointment time to actually see Dr. Grier. In which case, I was already half way out the door when we were able to speak for about 10min of which my insurance will now be charged. The medical service was very inefficient!
April 14, 2017Danielle D.Verified patient
Dr Grier is a professional and in her calm but expert way conveys her assessments and recommendations. I have confidence in her expertise and highly recommend her. She also has great staff.
More than 1 year agoLinda W.Verified patient
I think she's a great doctor!!! Not to impressed with the wait time and seeing her. There were two people ahead of me and it took an hour and a half for me to be called to a room. Not one of the front desk women asked if we needed anything, no sorry for the delay or anything. I thought that was unprofessional
April 4, 2016Alexis M.Verified patient
Dr. Grier was amazing! She told me what she was doing every step of the way and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. She thoroughly answered all my questions and she has the best bedside manner I've ever seen. I would recommend her to everybody.

Pleasant visit. She is very professional and she was attentive to my needs. I had a few questions and she addressed them all thoroughly and I feel comfortable with her
August 6, 2014Ebony T.Verified patient
While both the staff and doctor were friendly and cordial, the wait time to see her took over 2 hours and I never received a follow-up phone call regarding my test results. I'm unsure if I would go again but was okay with the experience.

Dr. Grier was wonderful! Really present, took her time answering question, and was very available and supportive. She literally makes me want to be an ob-gyn! The nurse, shamefully, I can't remember her name, was sweet and funny and lovely. This will be my permanent ob-gym doctors office. Can't recommend highly enough!

I have always had successful visits. Dr. Grier is patient, kind, and professional. She has been there for me and taken good care of me. She delivered my first born and hopefully will deliver all other future babies I may have :-)

Dr. Grier is a thorough and thoughtful physician. She takes the time to ask all the right questions, and provides a good explanation for each issue. However, beware: if you are in a hurry, you will be late to your next appointment. I've been to her office twice, with appointments each time, and she's always running an hour late.
