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.

Scare tactics to build up billings
My experience with this practice was extremely negative. I felt very pressured into having a major surgery without the appropriate data to inform such a decision. My primary care provider and the second opinion that I obtained confirmed my decision to seek alternate care. The pattern from this office is to send messages to former patients indicating that second opinions are not welcome and cause for termination of services. Pretty absurd given that I had already fired her but she felt the need to send the note. Seek other providers, they are worth it. Remember that an informed patient is a good patient. If she can't recognize that, RUN!

Knowledgeable and comforting
I'm a retired RN and continue to be a contracted healthcare risk manager for ambulatory surgery centers. I find Dr. Arabitg very professional and competent, friendly and caring. She's a hugger as am I. Her staff has always been very friendly and accommodating. I am extremely surprised with the 1 and 2 star reviews as that has never been my experience.I wholeheartedly recommend her when asked for my opinion.

Dr Arabitg is 100% amazing!!! However....
I had seen Dr Arabitg for about 15 years and she is extraordinary however, a new office clerk named Amanda is a rude, condescending and refused to let me speak to the office manager after she was out of line on two calls. After 15 year I am sad to say I made an appointment today with a new doctor and will be requesting my records forwarded.

DO NOT GO HERE
AWFUL!!!!! She put me on medication that she now wont fill! She feared mongered me into believing i would get cancer without this medication and now refuses to fill it without an appointment but I can't make an appointment until June and now they don't take my insurance. Horrible, unprofessional place of business. She even had the nerve to tell me I was sick because my faith didn't align with hers.

Excellent doctor
I am a retired RN and very happy to find Dr. Arabitg. She is very knowledgeable, gets right to the point, says it like it is. I like her matter-of-fact way. She has always been personable and considerate. She also detected a thyroid problem I was having that my primary doctor missed.

Thank you Dr Arabitg!
Dr. Arabitg has been my GYN for many years. She has always been personable, knowledgeable, kind and observant. This last visit - Dr. observed a prior medical concern which had not been followed up on by my other docs. She ordered more testing - and we got to the bottom of it. only because of her watching over me! Thank you Doctor!

Was not given the chance to even see her...When I scheduled my appointment a month ago, I made sure that they accepted my insurance. Five days prior to my re-scheduled appointment, the office calls to say they do not accept my insurance. I called my insurance company and confirmed that they are in network. So they have an agreement with my insurance copy, but refuse service to me. Unethical. I offered to pay cash and again got the run around. Who does not accept cash? New Patients beware!!

Dr Arabitg was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had. She didn’t listen to me about my problems. Disregarded the problem after it was diagnosed through an ultrasound. Walked in and told me they didn’t find anything, then opened my file and said “wait I guess they did but it’s not a big deal” Told me everyone is different and to pretty much deal with it. I just had surgery after continuing to deal with my issues for two more years because I didn’t know what to do. I ended up with multiple fibroids and stage 4 endometriosis. Luckily I found a Dr who listened to me and took care of my issues. I am grateful for the dr I found and chose to listen to my problems instead being condescending and putting me down for telling her something was wrong inside of me and being told that everyone’s different and blowing me off! Steer clear of this Dr it was a horrible experience and caused me two extra years of pain!

Dr. Arabitg took a lot of time with me, listened to me and my concerns, and clearly and completely explained my situation and my options. She was personable, not pushy, and a wealth of information. I felt very comfortable voicing my concerns and felt that she valued my input.

Went for a routine, and she claimed that my cervix was bleeding from the pap. Without explaining the procedure or why she was doing it, she put silver nitrate on my cervix. I was bleeding for days and it took a week to recover from this routine exam. My insurance is now billing me for a surgical procedure that I had no knowledge of and did not consent.

I tried to make a new patient appointment and they refused me service because I would not provide my social security number. Regardless of what they say, they are not legally allowed to require your social security number. Several years back, insurance companies changed your ID numbers from being your social security number because it is protected by law!

This Doctor is completely unprofessional and rude. I went in for a pap smear and to explain my horrible period cramps and i was disregarded right from the start. She did my pap smear and said I was bleeding and that I either have an infection or have cervical cancer. She sent me to get an ultrasound and blood work done. I got them done and about 4 days later they called saying I needed a biopsy done. When i went in for the biopsy I had explained my fear of doctors to the medical assistant but she didn’t seem to pass the message along to the doctor, so Doctor Arabitg proceeded to do the procedure after I told her to wait because I was scared. She then told me to stop crying because I am 22 years old and there was nothing to be scared of. When i went for the results of the biopsy I was told I had to sign a consent form to have Doctor Arabitg do another pelvic exam and when I refused the exam because I was there for the results only she handed me my results and was told find a new doctor.

I don’t know where to begin. I have been a patient of Dr Arabitg for many years now and I think she is outstanding! I just got a robotic hysterectomy a week ago. Everything turned out great! She is so thorough and caring. She has called me several times to check on me. She really cares about her patients. She always takes the time to listen to me and my concerns and I can’t forget she always makes me laugh about something. I always look forward to my visits with her. She is highly recommended by me!

Worst bedside manner of any doctor let alone a female. Very hostile and aggressive attitude. No care or compassion or even sensitivity for her clients. Would not recommend.. in fact would recommend elsewhere.. wish someone would have warned me.
