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.

She is extremely knowledgeable in her specialty. She took time to each of my questions. I never felt rushed. I highly reco.mend!!

29 years ago this wonderful Doctor delivered my 9lb 1oz Daughter at Micheal Reese Hospital. She was 5 years into her practice, she was always attentive and easy to talk to. If there was an issue she would address it with you and explain the remedy. She is a excellent Doctor, anyone would be blessed to have her as theirs. Thank you so much Dr. Gorens for teaching me how to take care of me, I practice the things you taught me to this day.

If you are looking for a Doctor with great people skills, is professional, knows what she is talking about, takes time with you then Dr. Gorens is the best and only OBGYN I would recommend. Try her, you won't regret having her as your doctor. By the way, she has been my OBGYN since 1998.

Dr. Gorens is an excellent doctor. I had been struggling with horrible monthly cycles for 12 years. I'd seen 3 different doctors, and none of them were able to help. I started seeing Dr. Gorens and she immediately identified my problem and began to take steps to fix them. It is now 10 months later and I feel great. She is the best in the field. She is patient. You will never feel rushed. She is the most thorough doctor that I've ever seen. I absolutely love Dr. Gorens!

Dr. Gorens delivered my son 26 years ago, throughout my pregnancy experience she was kind, gentle, and attentive to all my concerns. The only reason I did not remain with Dr. Gorens was due to insurance changes. My son is now an Eagle Scout, a U. S. Navy Veteran and a graduate of U of I in Champaign, IL. Dr. Gorens is an outstanding provider, one whom I would highly recommend for women's health. I didn't thank you then, but it is never too late. Thanks Dr. Goren!!

This doctor took time with me, listened to all my questions and made me feel comfortable. I wasn't rushed by her or her staff, and felt she was very knowledgeable about the field. I will be returning to see her and highly recommend her practice.

Through a recommendation, I scheduled my 1st appointment with Dr. Gorens, for 4:30p. I arrived early enough to fill out paperwork, and after completion, it was 4:20p. After waiting for OVER an hour, I told the clerk at the desk I would not be waiting another minute and was leaving. My 1st impression was of how loud the music was and how awfully cluttered the main desk was. I was not comfortable with this lack of professionalism and I would NEVER recommend this doctor, nor this office to ANYONE!
