If you are first time mom, I do not recommend this place at all. Its a large facility and you will not get the attention nor care you need as a first time mom. Doctors are so busy you will only get a few minutes and be rushed out the door after you have waited long periods to see one of them. Im currently in the process in switching offices.I had to come in three separate times to redo blood work because they kept putting it in expired tubes.

I went to Dr. Murthy for my last pregnancy with debilitating pain and couldnt walk properly without help, I had to BEG her with my mother in law to send me to a physical therapist and sign disability paperwork for my job. When she agreed, she stated if you miss just 1 appointment, I will cancel this. I had already been to a different dr who blew me off so I just said yes maam and did it. Turned out my muscles were so out of place the therapist didnt know how I could even walk. But I digress, the billing was done with my insurance and I thought I was in the clear until 4 months later when I got a bill for $720 and paid $240 of it and was going to make payments when I got a collections letter for the full $720. Seeing as how that was not accurate I am disputing the claim/charge on my credit. Would not recommend

Sabrina is not friendly and I felt rushed the entire visit. Normally I have a great experience with Katie. I don’t want to risk having to deal with Sabrina again so I’m finding and entire new obgyn. She didn’t listen to my concerns at all. Do not go here!!

The staff is so friendly! Dr. Cline always takes her time to answer my questions and she gives the best care. Love it here! I definitely recommend this practice!

Recently i went in because i was having AWFUL period pain on my first day of cycle. Literally feels like im dying. im not over exaggerating. I had Dr.Elstad and she told me “everyone has painful periods” and recommended me birth control basically saying thats all she can do to help me. Ive had an ultra sound done and other stuff and she told me in her own words that everything was fine. SHE WAS WRONG. I went to a new Ogbyn today and turns out i have an endocervical polyp that requires SURGERY because it is embedded and not a normal one. She over looked me and didnt listen to my concerns. thank goodness i went somewhere else and found out why this pain was happening. I do not recommend this place. very unorganized and the doctors dont care about you!

Horrible front desk/office people. Call & no one answers. I left my first visit in Nov & was told my insurance covered my bill completely & did not have a bill. 3 months later they bill me 800$ for “prepayment” of delivery when I had already switched doctors, then also will not retroactively pay with Medicaid. So if you go here before you have Medicaid & expect them to file it retroactively (like they are supposed to do) they will not. & then if you try to contact them they do not answer.I advice you to go somewhere where they actually care about patients & have some sort of customer service/bed side manners.

Staff has abhorrent communication and just wants your money. When I first called to make an appointment everything seemed okay, I met with Dr. Murthy and I had specifically said I needed surgery for my endometriosis. I had been diagnosed in 2017 and it had been getting increasingly worse to where I was having mobility issues. She said, We could but first I want to try you on this medicine, which at that point would be... number 7? 8? different kind of birth control/hormonal suppressant. I asked, If this doesnt work. You CAN do a surgery here? Right? I DO NOT want to have to transfer and go through this whole process again, she assured me that they could. 4 months later I have lost total normal mobility. I cant twist my body, I cant put weight on my left leg. I cant raise my arms to grab something. Nothing. I called FOUR DAYS IN A ROW until she finally got on the phone with me, I told her I needed to have surgery, that it wasnt working. And Dr. Murthy SCOLDED me of Well I see you cancelled your 3 month follow up? We could have discussed this there,. I said, in tears, I wasnt having issues then. You wanted me to come in to pay for an appointment, for you to go Okay call me if anything gets worse! which is exactly what I did?? At this point Ive lost my patience and say, We need to schedule my surgery consultation. I cannot live like this anymore,What does she say? Oh we cant do that here. You need robotic surgery. Ill have to recommend you to somewhere in Atlanta. You should be recommended in 2 weeks, if not call back again, Are you f*@&ing kidding me?Guess what?! THEY NEVER CALLED. I broke down and texted my original doctor who diagnosed me, desperate for help. He had me in for an appointment the next day, scheduled for surgery that week. Guess what Dr. Murthy?Not only was my left ovary COMPLETELY FUSED to my abdominal wall, and had to be removed. I had endometriosis COVERING behind my uterus that had to be ablated out. AND my STOMACH WAS FUSING TO MY INTESTINES. Thanks for wasting 4 more months of my life!

I cannot say enough good things to say about this office. Dr. Fletcher and the staff there treat you like family instead of just another patient. They make you feel so comfortable and truly care. I would recommend this office to anyone who is looking for or needing to find a new doctor. I recently delivered a healthy baby girl, and with their expertise, my high risk pregnancy could not have gone any smoother. I will forever be grateful for them.

A very mediocre place. Staff is friendly, but there is horrible communication. They NEVER answer the phone, and they expect you to answer whenever they call. This causes phone tag for people who work “unconventional” hours, since we often sleep during the hours they like to call. They don’t go by your preferred contact method which makes it odd they even ask at for it at all. Also, they sometimes don’t even know why you’re there for a follow up appointment that they recommended. Finally, they sent me a bill after saying my insurance already handled it. So, friendly staff, but horrible organization.
