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.

Never again
Began seeing him when I was 10 weeks. Was told that I was going to meet him. Of course I want to meet the man who’s delivering my baby. He set up a C-section. Fast forward to delivery day. I was told that I would finally meet him there. Then a medical assistant informed me that he was in the Bahamas

I don't do reviews often, but I felt led to do. I have been a patient of Dr. Moore for many years and my experience has always been great. He is a one-of-a-kind doctor who has an amazing gift. His bedside manners are great, and his energy is always positive, reflecting his passion and love for the service he provides. However, this is refreshing because nowadays finding providers who are genuine and passionate about their work is becoming rare.

Very disappointed at the lack of compassion in the OXON Hill office. I came to this office from my last experience 8 years ago. They screwed up my labs and did not call me about the results of an abnormalities that could be present. They had results for a week. I find out from an email from the 3rd party company. Then I come In to get simple blood work so they can rerun the results. I’m already on edge...The receptionist is just rude the entire time. I have already had complications and to be mistreated by the very office that is giving me care is unacceptable. I will be looking for a new office ASAP...

I felt very violated since I got drug tested without a consent . Please watch out for that . Ps the triage person was very rude at the south east location but what did I expect ( apparently they have been trained to say I’m just doing my job . )

Dr Moore is a wonderful doctor and he's very good at his job. I was usually scared to go for my appointments because of my high blood pressure issue but from the first time I met him, he assured me that as long as I took my drugs regularly I would be fine. He was very patient and answered all my questions with a very positive vibe.He has such an awesome personality that would make you consider having a baby every year! I would gladly recommend Dr Moore to any pregnant woman I know.

Find you another OB especially if you're going to the one in forestville MD.. they're no where near professional and the lady practitioner always have an attitude . Your check ups will be only 5 mins if that smh. They don't even ask you if you have any concerns. If you are there for Dr. Moore be prepared to only see him a couple of times and then you'd see these unprofessional practioners for the rest of your pregnancy until you give birth. Sooo much I would like to say but no room smh.

Today 12/18/17 was one the most draining day ever. After waiting for more than a hour and half, I was told I have a high risk pregnancy ask to elaborate and he just left. I been a patient of Moore & Associates for 5 years now. No one ever treat me like that before. So I made a review about my terrible experience on Google. After expressing my emotions online Dr. Moore send one of his employees to contact me after I left, telling me that I was allowed back in his offices. Dont recommend!!!!

I started my care at the Forestville location because it was down the street from my home. However, the prenatal care is very incompetent and the staff as well. First, I couldn’t get my scheduled sonogram because the sonogram technican “called out”. The staff didn’t even notify me until I arrived. Allegedly they contacted me in the morning, but there was no message received. Then rescheduled me for the wrong date. I’m 22 weeks and they do not offer proper care. I wouldn’t send my dog here!

last week I went into the Forestville location I took a urine test and the test came back and said I was pregnant; I was then taken back for more blood work. The sonogram person was busy so I was not able to see how far along I was in my “pregnancy”, so the nurse scheduled an appointment for this Tuesday in the greenbelt location. My appointment was for 9am when I got home I called to rescheduled my appointment for a later time the person who took my call gave me a 3:30 appointment. When I showe

I kept reading that he is good actually good but the problem is that i never had the opportunity to meet him. As a pregnant woman, you want to be assured you are seeing a doctor or a competent midwife. Sophie the midwife is very unprofessional and lacks knowledge. I have been stucked with her since my visiting and i really didn't like my experience. Some of the medical staff are nice and some aren't. They are the least of my worries. Can Dr. Moore be more available for his patients pleaseeeee.

Dr. Moore is an excellent doctor. He has multiple locations and I have been to all of them. Oxon Hill is my favorite and Greenbelt my least favorite but they are all comfortable and clean. At first I was skeptical because when you go in you are more likely to have a visit with one of his midwives, but apart from Ms. Sophie, I felt like I was in capable hands and I always had the option of seeing Dr. Moore directly if I felt it was necessary.
