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.
Dr Nowak is great! She recently delivered our first born and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. Her bed side manner can’t be beat, wait times are short, and it’s pretty easy to get an appointment.

Dr. Nowak is amazing. I could not have asked for a better doctor to care for me before and throughout my pregnancy. She truly cares about her patients and it shows. Im so grateful to have her as my doctor. She gave me hope when there was none and I'll never forget it. Love her!

She was very patient, compassionate, and understanding. Never felt rushed. Explained test results thoroughly. Offered to speak to my husband about upcoming procedure. Best gynecologist that I've ever had.

Dr Mary took care of us during our pregnancy, I was extremely high risk due to many complications, it seemed unlikely I would carry the baby to term and miscarriage was imminent, Dr Mary saw us every week and also referred us to a high risk physician we also saw, she really cared for my family and I, explained everything, we had our healthy daughter in April of this year, we could not be more grateful to her for seeing us through this time, absolutely the best dr I have ever seen

Dr. Mary Nowak is the most caring doctor I have had. I was having trouble conceiving, since my first appointment she ordered labs, she was quickly able to determine the probable cause, in which other drs did not. She set me up with the right specialist. 2 months of medication I became pregnant. She always calls with results & genuinely cares about her patients. I anticipate to deliver at Christ Hospital. The staff there love her and speak highly of her, and reassure me I'm in good hands!
