Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

WORST CARE OF MY LIFE. if youre going through anything life changing I dont suggest you go here. Nurses are so rude cant read paperwork. Told me I was and wasn't pregnant multiple times. It has been the worst week of my life. Dr. Hering has great bedside manners but doesn't tolerate questions and will get annoyed easily.

When I received my first (and only) checkup from Dr. Hering, I felt that he was unprofessionally condescending towards me after I informed him that I was partaking in safe sexual activity as a sixteen-year-old and that I wanted to start taking birth control pills. He continued to ask me questions as if he intended to make me feel guilty for performing sexual acts. I will not be seeing him again. When I visit an OB/GYN, I am visiting to ensure that I am safely partaking in these activities with my partner, not to be scolded for doing so.

Dr. Hering actually interrupted me while I was explaining my severe pelvic pain to tell me “I understand, men have Abdominal pain too.” Dude, do you have a vagina and a uterus and do you menstruate every month? No. It seemed torturous for him to try to be empathetic. He did not listen well and he seems really condescending. I’m not sure why a guy like this would be a gynecologist. His nurses were great. Too bad they work for this guy. I went back twice to give him a chance, but had a severe condition that I could not end up trusting someone like him with.

Doctor Hering is by far my favorite doctor. He really listens to everything you say. He gets to know his patients and their entire health history. If you don't know what to ask he will explain more about what is happening. He has taken the time to call me when I was concerned about results. He has rightfully sent me to other specialist to get a complete picture of what is happening. I feel like Dr. Hering has saved my life more than once because he sent me to a different health specialist

Dr.Hering LISTENS to his patients.He has a Superb 'bedside' manner. He has tremendous knowledge that he communicates in a way that the laymen can understand. He has a sense of humor that puts the patient at ease. His staff is also very polite. He has late hours also. I can't say enough good things about him. SUPERB..THANK YOU, Doc!!
