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.

Pushes Unnecessary C-sections
Billing office is also very nasty and rude

NOT AN ENDOMETRIOSIS SPECIALIST!!!
DO NOT trust him when he says he is an endometriosis specialist. His ideas of treating endo are birth control or hysterectomy and says that is the cure. NOPE!!!! He is uncaring and doesn’t listen to your concerns. Do NOT go to him!

Good Health Care Provider
I’ve been seeing Dr Diesfeld for years now. Probably started in the early 80’s I think. Dr Diesfeld is very kind, patient and caring and answers all my questions when I get chatty. But he has helped me get through a rough spot and reassured me that everything will be fine and it was. Nothing serious but a little scary for me. A good OBGYN and definitely recommend this physician.

I wish the stars went to 100!!! That is how I feel about Dr. Patrick Diesfeld ! He is amazing. He answers all my questions and empathized with me. I was a difficult patient and he took the time and explained everything clearly. He listened to my concerns and helped make me have a successful delivery. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Diesfeld became my specialist back in the days. I had ectopic pregnancy which took my Dr along time. My symptoms where never like a ectopic pregnancy. Which through my Dr and others off. My DR had called Dr D. in to look over me and bam I was in the hospital. I have had Dr D. since the 80's and I prefer him for my female stuff. He has great manners and very helpful also I would consider him as a friend. Great doctor I would give this man 10 Stars.. Thanks Dr Diesfeld

The staff is courteous, the Dr. is amazingly patient and kind. He never seemed rushed and answered all of my questions (I had a lot) very patiently. I felt completely informed and very comfortable with him.
