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.

Caring and considerate
Dr. GEWIRTZ is always so attentive and caring. She called me today with good news test results knowing I’m not on MyChart. Not many doctors are like her anymore!

25 yrs. She's the best!!
I've going to Dr. Gewertz, A Woman's Way Gynecology for about 25 yrs. She and her team are the best!!When ever I've had an issue in the past, she would make time for me right away. Most recently I had a rather urgent matter, I called the office, they put me right through to her and she had my come right in, rather than going to an emergency room. She took care of me right away, was able to perform tests right in her office, ultrasound included, put my mind at ease and referred me for a procedure w her colleague. I was then seen the following day and a procedure scheduled. This was so organized and easy. The worst part is the anxiety when you think something is wrong. She put my mind at ease and big hug as well. thank you!!!

Unprofessional mess
For years, I kept returning to this office solely because NP Bonnie's bedside manner was exceptional. However, my experiences with Dr. G and her staff were disappointing. Dr. G often talks over patients, fails to listen, and makes frequent mistakes during appointments. The staff also demonstrates unprofessional behavior and the office is outdated and poorly maintained.

Love this office!
I don’t usually leave reviews, but I feel strongly about this office and wanted to give credit when credit is due. I’ve been going to Dr. Gewirtz’s office for many years, but took a few years off due to the pandemic. I went back today and was seen by the Physician's Assistant, Bonnie. First off, the office staff is very pleasant and efficient, as is the nursing staff. Bonnie is just amazing! She makes you feel so comfortable and at ease right off the bat. She took her time with me, very patient- answered the hundreds of questions I had and gave me so much important information. You can tell she cares. She is extremely relatable and kind. I knew I was in good hands with her. Dr. Gewirtz is amazing as well as I’ve seen her for many years in the past. I would highly recommend this office if you are looking for a gynecologist.

Very rude
Made me feel terrible. I use a cane and need assistance getting up from the examining table and the doctor made some comments about my weight. The doctor also scowled me for not bringing in blood work results that clearly was the office responsibility to get. I do not recommend .

I was a new patient and she and her staff were very attentive. I was able to get a pelvic exam as well as an internal and external sonogram within an hour. Dr. Gewirtz answered any questions I had, and was very warm and welcoming. I was referred to her by a coworker and now I see why!

It's Friday at 2:45 and I just called the office to inquire about test results that were supposed to be mailed to me last Monday and I haven't received yet. I got a recording that the office is closed and office hours on Friday are 9-3. So what time do they stop taking calls? I left this practice 2 years ago due to unprofessional staff.

Uncaring and incompetent office staff. Was a new patient and they got important details wrong. No attempt to rectify. Lack of attention to detail and bad attitude reflects poorly on the doctor.

I have recommended Dr Gewirtz and Bonnie in the past to anyone who asked. However, I will most likely not be returning to this office for personal reasons. I was promised that I would receive a call three days after my appointment and it's been three weeks and still no call.

The doctors are a pleasure but corresponding with the office is a pain. A lot of appointment and copay miscommunications and twice I've had contradictory information on how to refill my prescription. In the past they have also failed to return calls. Might not stay with them in consequence.
