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 Caffrey has been my doc for 23 years and I won't go to anyone else. I live 90 miles from his clinic but the care he provides is worth the drive. I trust him completely.

Best OBGYN
I have been going to Dr Caffery since I was a young lady. His bedside manner, compassion for his patients and his personality far exceeds any doctor I’ve ever been established with. I have referred several friends to him and they love him just as much as I do! You will never find another doctor with as big of a heart as him. I hope he never retires.

Highly Recommended
I highly recommend Dr. Caffrey. My discomfort in talking about my gynecological issues quickly dissipated with Dr. Caffrey‘s compassionate, attentive, and caring bedside manner. Dr. Caffrey listened to my concerns, completed an exam, and thoroughly explain my condition, plan of care and follow-up plan with respect and kindness. I am grateful for the recommendation from a peer that led me to Dr. Caffrey. I am confident I will receive excellent care going forward.

Everyone at the office is friendly and great to deal with. All of the nurses help with anything and everything they can. Dr. Caffrey has the best bedside manner ever, when he talks to me he makes sure I understand completely without making me feel silly if I do not. Definitely plan on continuing to use the clinic as long as I live in the area.

If you are searching for an OBGYN, I highly recommend the services of Dr. Robert Caffrey. Dr. Caffrey has seen me through my last two pregnancies both of which were considered to be high risk. My mind was kept at ease throughout the process as Dr. Caffrey would call to check in and make sure I knew he was a phone call away if I ever had any questions. He has a very caring nature and kept me in the know at all times. He provided exactly what my family n ended through two of my most challenging pregnancies!
