I love the fact that I was able to make a appointment easy and be seen the next available day. Even though parking and traffic was headache, the appointment overall was great.

I was very satisfied from beginning to end. Booking appointment was easy. Office was immaculate, employees very professional and polite and Doctor Tara Halpern was great. Highly recommend her to anyone seeking GYNECOLOGICAL care
Verified patient
This facility was not in the best physical condition, there was a distinct, foul odor and the temperature was uncomfortably hot. There was visible condensation on the windows and water stains on the ceiling. I was seen right away though, after paying a higher-than-usual fee. The practitioner who saw me spoke at a rapid-fire pace and had the general air and mannerisms of someone rushing through the current task to get to their next to-do, which was confusing because this clinic was a ghost town and they had no other patients to tend to besides myself. I didn't feel fully listened to, and the concerns I was there to discuss were pretty quickly dismissed and rejected. I was sent to another facility for follow-up care with instructions that were totally inaccurate, and I now have to re-book an entirely new appointment elsewhere and start from scratch. The fee I paid to see that practitioner was a total waste. 0/10 would not recommend.
This was the best I’ve ever felt leaving a GYN apt. Everyone was so warm and caring. My apt was right on time and Dr. Halpern was kind and knowledgeable. So happy to have found a GYN I trust and like :-)
Great!

It was disappointing to hear someone dismiss my concerns because "African American and Latin women have more dense breast tissue". I have pain and lumps but I guess that does not matter
