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.

I went to Dr. Pomeroy for endometrial ablation. During pre-op, day of surgery, and post-surgery visits she was soothing, kind, listened, sufficiently answered questions, and all of the support staff were also great. The day off surgery was a symphony of time management, skill, and patient care. I feel so much healthier now and will absolutely return to her for ongoing gyn care.

Dr. Pomeroy is the best doctor I have ever interacted with. I saw her after a miscarriage and D&C with another practice. We are also a lesbian couple and she and the entire practice are thoughtful and compassionate. I had some questions about sperm donation and there was one question she was unsure about and she said that. I really appreciated that she did not just give me her opinion. I am also a plus size woman and with both pregnancies have been worried about that. Dr Pomeroy always focused on the positive and tried to keep me calm and positive which really helped after our first loss. I have recommended her to multiple other people.

I absolutely love Dr. Pomeroy She is full of joy, her appearance lights up the room when she enters. I just had my first child on feb 26, 2019 she helped me throughout the process starting at the beginning of my pregnancy. She explained the whole process step by step till the end of my pregnancy. I had to have C-section the fact Dr. Pomeroy completed the operation I trusted her completely with not just my baby's life, but also myself. I will definitely go back to her with my 2nd one in future.

We came to meet Dr. Pomeroy about two years ago when we first saw her due to a miscarriage. Knowing our situation she wasted no time helping us get our concerns met with empathy, and a genuine true heart for us! We saw SRM, and they found nothing was the true cause for RPL so I called Dr. Pomeroy and with her knowledge and expertise helped us achieve a wonderful pregnancy and birth of our baby girl! I would highly recommend Dr. Pomeroy, not only as a wonderful OBGYN, but as a blessing to family!

In the past, I have received so/so treament from doctors specializing in woman care. This left a bad taste in my mouth and almost a borderline fear of going to the obgyn. Dr. Pomeroy completely changed that. She was extremely patient, caring, and attentive to my needs. I will be using her as my primary ONGYN.

I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Pomeroy! Aside from being so medically knowledgeable and helpful, she is the nicest, most personable Dr. I have ever had or met. Dr. Pomeroy makes me feel so comfortable and I actually looked forward to all my prenatal visits. Is it weird to say now that I’m not pregnant anymore, I miss being able to see her so often?... will forever use her for all my pregnancies or medical concerns!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Pomeroy & her staff. We had a high risk pregnancy with twins. She communicated everything with us & addressed any concerns that we or she might have. She didn't hesitate to run any test to ensure the pregnancy went to term. She is extremely nice and friendly. We couldn't have asked for a better doctor. She scheduled the birth on her day off, came in on her day off to check on us two days later. We highly recommend her.

Deann in SOUTH PRAIRIE – Aug 13, 2017
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Pomeroy?
She initially presented as a friendly OB. As my pregnancy turned into a miscarriage she did not have the appropriate skills to deal with this traumatic experience. She did not council at anytime during the process (2 weeks, and 3 apt), even after the event. She seemed unable to process the news and communicate it effectively to me as the patient. I work in healthcare and knew this was the probable outcome, but she never said the word miscarriage even on the day it occurred. Inexperienced!!
