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.

The most thorough and knowledgeable doctor there could possibly be. His down to earth demeanor makes me at ease. Clearly the best Ob/Gyn or Hi Risk OB I have ever known.

Dismissive and Unsupportive
The two encounters I had with Dr. Ilagan both left me in tears. The first time I met with Dr. Ilagan after being referred to his care, he had not fully read my chart and suggested a radical change in my care without realizing a huge, relevant part of my medical history. Both appointments were rushed and he was unwilling to fully answer questions. He also made hurtful and irrelevant comments about my weight. I did not feel safe in his care.

Not a great dr.
Dr. Ilagan was extremely nonchalant and not comforting while having a high risk pregnancy. His appointments always seemed rushed and he was very dismissive of symptoms. Do not go to Dr. Ilagan

Lack of compassion and accountability
This doctor made a rude/ unnecessary comment and did not take accountability. Women who are dealing with a high-risk pregnancy and anxiety should not have to endure these experiences with someone who is supposed to be a source of healing and understanding. Get a new doctor if you can because you have a right to advocate for yourself freely and ask as many questions as you want. Particularly as a woman of color.

Dr. Ilagan is outstanding! He took me in as a transfer patient at 21 weeks pregnant and I couldn't be more grateful. He is kind, patient, has great bedside manner and is very knowledgeable. This was my first pregnancy and I was very anxious, however, he made me feel very comfortable by answering all my questions thoroughly and providing me with the utmost attention and care. We had our baby boy in August via a caesarean delivery, and Dr. Ilagan made sure both the baby and I were safe and healthy! We were so glad to have Dr. Ilagan guide us through this journey and we highly recommend him!

Dr. Ilagan is very expert in high risk pregnancy (one of the best MFM doctors in NYP). We met him during our 3rd trimester for fetal growth scan. He pointed out our risk issues and took action with reasonable plan immediately. Even he is not our primary OBGYN, he followed up our case very closely and guided us through how to manage our situation with a very conservative mind set. We truly appreciate his guidance and his support during our last few weeks in our pregnancy.

Dr Ilagan is one of the best Dr and specially for high risk pregnancy. I had a wonderful experience with him when I had my high risk twins pregnancy. With the help of God and him I was able to reach full term, have a vaginal delivery and healthy twins. I was also impressed with his prompt response to my email each time I had questions or concerns. During my pregnancy I sent him once an email late at night expecting to get a response in the morning as it was too late, but I got a response from him within 5 minutes that night I was so impressed. I will always recommend him to anyone who has a high risk pregnancy because he is one of the best caring Dr to go to. I’m and will always be grateful for having him accompany me through my pregnancy. Thank you again Dr Ilagan. May God continue to protect and bless you ?? .
