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 am very upset with my experience and the lack of communication. This is my 1st pregnancy. I'm scared and I struggle with depression/anxiety, and want to ensure I have a healthy child. Dr Colon said my anatomy ultrasound would be at another place, but didn't explain why. She said someone would contact me and to let her know if I didn't hear within 2 wks. At checkout, I asked for more clarification, but they had no idea what I was talking about and had to ask Dr Colon and were still confused. After 1.5 wks, I called Dr Colon to find out they forgot to do the referral. I finally got the appt and it was at this other place I learned I was high risk. Today, I got a letter from Dr Colon's office stating I would no longer be accepted due to "non compliance with recommended care". I was in tears. I have no idea what I did wrong and was never once contacted about this. I'm 28 wks, had to find a new Dr and the soonest I can be seen is in 4 wks. My stress/depression is now through the roof.

Dr. Colon-Rivera was my life saver! I suffer from a rare pregnancy related illness called Hyperemesis Gravidarum, unfortunately with how rare it is and lack of research it can be difficult finding the right care. I was very fortunate to have found Dr. Colon- Rivera when I did, I was in a very bad, serious condition. She took action immediately and went through all the the treatment options until she found what worked for me. She always listens, observes and shows the upmost compassion for her patients. I appreciate her genuine kindness and am so grateful to have her as my OB! I am amazed at everything you've done for me and my unborn child. Thank you so much!

When I had a female problem I was referred to Obstetrics & Gynecology of Trinity by my GP. I was so thankful to have Dr. Colon-Rivera for my doctor when I had to have my surgery. She was so pleasant and caring. She listened when I spoke and looked at me as I spoke. (Something I don't get from other doctors) She explained everything clearly to me and answered any questions I had. I felt very comfortable with her. I trust her and will definitely keep her as my doctor.

Dr Colon’-Rivera is the best GYN, in fact one of the best drs overall, that I have ever seen. She is not only very knowledgeable but through her patience, caring, and fantastic listening/communication skills is able to get to the real problem in a way that most drs cannot. That is all too rare, and I appreciate it so much. With the issue I’m presently dealing with, I feel like she’s the only Dr so far that I can trust. And I am soooo grateful to have found her.

Dr. Malieri Colón-Rivera is the best OBG doctor that I had. She treats you like a friend, take her time to get to know you and explain everything to you. She remembers me when she sees me and cares about me. Her office is new, clean, modern and organized. I love that I can make online appointments and I can enter my portal to see the test that had been done to me and my record. She speaks English and Spanish and she is very good doctor she knows what she is doing and I recommend her.

I am so very impressed with Dr. Malieri Rivera. She listens intently. Her diagnosis is right on the mark, and schedules treatments accordingly. She makes sure I understand what is wrong and how we can best attack the problem. I am very much at ease which hasn't always been my experience with other offices, and it is because of her warm personality. I am so glad to have found her and Dr. Torres is lucky to have her as an associate. She's very knowledgeable, 10 STAR MATERIAL !!

My experience with Dr. Colon was incredible. They accept self-pay patients and still provided me with a reasonable price for my planned C-section, prenatal visits and tubal. Dr. Colon was genuinely caring, even helping me deal with some emotional issues with my 5yr old. She performed my surgery and it went extremely well, much easier then my 1st. I was shocked it was over as quickly as it was, she removed the scar from my 1st surgery and I healed so quickly! I highly recommend her and her staff

having to take your 15 year old daughter who only recently entered woman-hood, the task of taking her to a gynecologist was daunting. Dr. Colon-Rivera and her staff put her right at ease (and worried mom too). From the first call I made to the office, every accommodation was made for me and for her. After the appointment, my daughter said, "I liked that she pulled a chair up and spoke to me to give me information about my body." No higher praise than that!
