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.

Ruined my birthing experience
She is extremely dismissive. She will talk over you and it’s nearly impossible to advocate for yourself. She also told me to “stop my whining” multiple times while I was giving birth. Encouraged me to discharged in less than 48 hours postpartum despite high BP and being so swollen I couldn’t walk, causing me to be rehospitalized 2 days later. The office she operates in is just as bad. It is impossible to get ahold of anyone and some of the nurses could stand to be kinder. Front desk staff is great, though, and I never had issues with scheduling appointments. I could write a novel of issues that I had with her throughout my pregnancy and my postpartum experience, as well as horror stories I have heard from others. But for the sake of a simple review, pick someone else unless you are a relatively healthy person. Do not trust her if you are a young mother or have a high risk pregnancy. I am done having children and she ruined my ONLY birthing experience. It was just a Monday for her.

Disappointing
I chose Dr. Malone based on all of the positive reviews but that was a mistake. She’s very dismissive and passive aggressive. Every question that I would ask she would shut it down. I don’t feel like she would actually listen to me. I went into her office at 20 weeks pregnant in a ton of pain to where I could barely move and she literally brushed me off and just said “well you’re supposed to be cramping at this time.” At my last visit, after asking a couple questions, She told me, “I think you need to take a step back because of your anxiety.” Uhm, okay thanks. I really tried to give her the benefit of the doubt but at 27 weeks pregnant, I finally decided to switch OB’s at a completely different practice because I don’t want to deal with her anymore. My new OB is very understanding. I personally would NOT recommend Dr. Malone.

Dr. Malone is truly one of a kind and goes above and beyond. She cares deeply for each one of her patients (and there are many) and is willing to spend as much time answering questions as they need. She’s a special, incredible human, and I say that with absolute honesty.

Dr Malone is the kindest, sweetest, most caring doctor I've ever been to! I searched for a OB/GYN for almost 40 years before she was recommended to me. I would HIGHLY recommend her. She seems to treat every patient like they are the most important patient in the world!
