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.

Best gynecologist ever
I would recommend him to any of my friends or family. He is excellent!!

Dr. Ocon is an excellent Doctor not only did he deliver all three of my beautiful babies but he also helped me with my heavy cycles and leakage of urine by preforming a ablation and bladder sling. His staff including his NP Tori Skelton have always answered all my questions and concerns and make me feel comfortable when coming to the office. I would definitely recommend Dr. Ocon and NP Tori Skelton.

Dr. Ocon is amazing!!! I recently had a partial hysterectomy due to extremely heavy periods , 3 cysts removed and a bladder sling inserted for incontinence. Before surgery,I was a mess and quit scared but once I visited with Dr. Ocon I felt more at ease. He answered all my questions, addressed my concerns and even took his time to make sure I understood everything that was being said. Its been 5 weeks since my surgery and I am feeling great and ready for a new life! Thank You Dr. Ocon

I had to wait over a month just to meet him. I shouldn't be 33 weeks and just now meeting my doctor who's supposed to deliver my baby. I had to demand an appointment with him since they kept scheduling me with the nurse practitioners. Also, I had an ultrasound done for the first time at this place after and he wouldn't let me see my baby. Just told me that my baby had a big head. At 33 weeks! I waited 40 minutes after my scheduled appointment only to be seen for a 3 minute ultrasound.

Dr. Ocon is an amazing OBGYN. He is professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about his job. My experience with Dr. Ocon has been great! Dr. Ocon didn't just deliver my babies, he helped me get my life back. He helped me battle depression that's wasn't even related to postpartum. Dr. Ocon didn't put me on medication, he took the time to listen and guide me through it. I am thankful for that everyday of my life. He is one of the best Drs. in the Houston area, if not the best hands down!

I feel rushed during every appointment. For every appointment he's never sat down and had a conversation with me. He's always by the door or walking out the door. As a new mom I have plenty concerns but never get to express them. He does his job but nothing extra. I tried to understand some of his great reviews but I'm not at all impressed and wish I wasn't so far along my pregnancy so I could change doctors. If you want someone welcoming keep searching for another doctor

This was the worst experience ever in going to a doctor. First the NP said you'll be happy to know you're not pregnant. I said well that's great how did you know that since I haven't had a blood test or urine sample? Wrong patient! Wow Then I put on a piece of paper as a gown. Afterward I could not get my results and kept leaving message before I finally spoke to a person. Now they can't find my mammogram results the hospital sent over 5 days ago having to resend. Very unhappy!

I was referred to Dr. Ocon by a good friend of mine. When I scheduled my first time appointment with the Dr. Ocon I had a next day appointment. I had my period for 3 1/2 months. Feeling completely week and tired. Dr. Ocon took control of the situation immediately and solved my problem In the up-most professional manner. He performed an Ablation which went (super) well. Soon after he also performed tubal ligation surgery and Urethral sling surgery which went fabulous. I am BEYOND grateful.
