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.

Phenomenal Doctor
Dr. Nicole Williams is phenomenal!! She listened to my concerns, validated that I was not crazy, and BELIEVED that I knew my body. I have been miserable with perimenopause symptoms. Dr. Williams understood and immediately provided me with a prescription for HRT. In addition, she referred me to other doctors for other issues. She was attentive in every aspect!!

A classmate referred me to Dr. Williams. I called made an appointment and 5 days later I was seen. I drove to Chicago from St. Louis, Mo. After being seen, Dr. Williams scheduled my surgery exactly a month later. Needless to say, Dr. Williams was professional and she explained everything. My surgery went well. She saved my uterus.

Caring
My Doctor that I had been with since twenties retired. There is always concern as to who will be your New Doctor. Dr. Chatman recommended Dr. Williams. I am extremely pleased. From my very first visit I sensed she cared and wanted to assure me that I was in good hands. Getting ready to book my appointment now.

I was a drug rep for Dr Williams for almost 4 years. I can honestly say the way Doctors treat their reps shows so much about who they are. She was kind, respectful and always willing to teach me about different disease states. I was also always impressed with the fact she always wants to know more about the latest and greatest treatment options that are available to her patients. She is a top Doc -so much that I even sent my daughter to her practice for my daughters annual exam.

My only regret is that I did not meet Dr. Williams years ago. I have suffered from fibroids for over ten years with symptoms worsening in the last three years. Dr. Williams performed my abdominal hysterectomy with a stellar and caring staff. My incision looks great and I did not experience the pain I was told by other women I would have. Dr. Williams is personable and down to earth and I highly recommend her.

I have had no issues with Dr. Williams and Allison Holcomb (PA). All our visits have been fine. However, I have had 3 instances with being incorrectly billed by this office. All 3 times they have eventually removed the incorrect charge. However, I just don't have time in my busy scheduled to go back and forth with the billing department and with my insurance company to double check their billing practices. This is why I'm choosing to leave this practice and find a new gynecologist. This last time that a billing issue arose, I tried calling the billing department a couple of times, but the voicemail was full. So, I emailed them and it took two weeks until they responded. Then it took two more emails from me to get them to remove the charges. I feel badly for all the patients that have probably unknowingly just paid their incorrect bills. If you are a patient here, please make sure you are not charged specialist rates for routine visits and please made sure you are not charged for your

I had a horrible expirence with ms Williams. I regret going to me Williams more than anything else in my life. Sure she was so polite and seemed perfect at first ! Until , she did my vagainal rejuvenation surgery! I was so excited , I trusted her and after I had sex 8 weeks later I learned my vagina ruined !! She cut out so much “fatty tissue “ that my vagina has no substance on top of that the stitches healed wrong. She REFUSED to help me, In short !

Don't be fooled by the positive reviews. Saw Dr. Willams one time. She was unable to make a diagnosis and made no recommendations to relieve suffering. She wrote a prescription without saying what it was for. Online research revealed the Rx was for a condition she said I didn't have. I called the office several times, literally begging to speak to the doctor. She never called back.
