Great doctor, great clinic, had a really good visit!
Less than 1 year agoKarin K.Verified patient
Was booked as a new patient for an 8:40 appointment. Showed up a few minutes early. Was checked in and asked to fill out paperwork upon arrival. After a few minutes of sitting in the waiting room I was told that the doctor prefers new patients to come in 30 minutes ahead of their appointment so I couldn’t be seen. Every single confirmation I received said 8:40 and no note about arriving 30 minutes early.

I love this practice. All of the doctors I've seen here are wonderful. They have great bedside manner and truly listen to you. The latest OB/GYN I saw here was Dr. Gauf and she was so kind/helpful. I can't recommend this practice enough!

Best doctors office experience I have EVER had. Every single person in that place was so incredibly kind and made me feel very comfortable. Dr. Gauf was incredible and couldn’t have been kinder. Took all the time in the world for me.
