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.

Dr. Williams takes the time to listen. She also provides lots of information if you don't have questions to make sure you're informed.

In person annual
This is the safest and most comfortable I’ve ever felt at a Gynecologist office. Dr. Williams listens to my concerns and takes them seriously. The entire staff is so respectful and polite. You can tell that everyone there truly cares about every patient.

My GYNE BESTIE
I absolutely love Catherine! She also has familiarity with a medical issue I have. We hold hands when I get my blonde drawn because I am terrified of needles. Every time I see Dr Williams I am actually excited

So kind, gentle, and affirming!
I have seen both Dr. del Busto and now Dr. Williams and I love going to Midwest Center for my woman care needs. Even the ultrasound tech was as kind, gentle, and affirming as the doctors i’ve seen. The providers here give great care, really listen, and are patient-first, just as they advertise. I would trust Dr. Williams and any of the other doctors at this practice with all of my gynecological needs.

Genuinely interested and easy to talk to
I had to find a new gyn when mine of over 25 years retired. I switched practices and am so happy to have found Dr Williams. She is caring, competent and doesn’t rush you. She genuinely cares about her patients and is super helpful in discussing any issues you bring to the appt.

She is wonderful at explaining test results, potential diagnoses, and treatment options. She is very clear about when her explanations veer outside gyn expertise, and when it is all about women's health and thus relevant. Consequently, the way she works is conducive to a team approach in which rhe PCP and the specialists work together to address the health and well-being of their mutual patient.

Love my Gyno!
Dr. Williams makes me feel extremely comfortable and cared for when I visit her. She takes the time to talk through every question and concern I have. She allows me to feel comfortable asking uncomfortable questions and her positive energy makes me feel calm! I used to hate going to my gyno appointments but I can truly say Dr. Williams makes them more pleasant. I’m so glad she is my doctor!

Dr. Williams Review
It was the first time seeing Dr. Williams! I really liked her a lot. She was very friendly and personable. I like having a woman gyne. I saw Dr. Nelson for over 30 years- he delivered my twins!! He was awesome but he retired. I saw Dr. Clear last year and I liked her too, but she only sees patients in Evanston.

Knowledgeable, Considerate, Thorough
I’m so thankful I found her! She’s knowledgeable, considerate, honest - all of the things you want in a doctor. She actually listens to your concerns, she gives options, and she’s thorough. She’s not the one to push a medication on you and send you on your way. She’s the one!

Sweet and Smart
I had my annual exam today as a first time patient and Dr. Williams was absolutely amazing. She was nice attentive and explained everything to me with patience. I actually thought she was so amazing told myself I would look to see how I could give her a review because that’s how good I thought she was and I thought she deserved to know how great she made the whole experience.
