If I could give 10 stars, I’d give 100—honestly. This place has been nothing short of amazing. They supported me through both my second and third pregnancies, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without them.Going through a pregnancy with potential risks can be overwhelming, but having this team by my side made all the difference. They were always accommodating with appointments, incredibly welcoming, and completely transparent every step of the way. Communication with my OB-GYN team was seamless—they worked together like a dream, which gave me so much peace of mind.If you’re looking for a place where your high-risk pregnancy will be monitored with the utmost care and attention, this is it. I’m beyond grateful to have had them as part of my journey.

I have been visiting this office for genetic testing and to manage gestational diabetes. The front desk staff, especially Brooke, has always been friendly and welcoming. My experiences with the sonographers, Nataliya and Beatrice, have also been excellent. They are warm, compassionate, and take the time to explain each step and every measurement related to the baby. I have been pleased with the care I received, and I highly recommend this office for any expectant mom.
