Reviews
She did not introduce herself. She came in started telling me I needed to be seen more, didn't explain anything and basically spoke to the wall the whole time. Hard to understand and lacked any and all bedside manner.
Very nice

Amazing
Was very nice and understanding and explained everything thoroughly
La primera vez me atendieron súper bien las muchacha q me hizo el ultrasonido execelente persona me hiba diciendo las partes de mi bb y todo . Pero la última vez no fue tan buena la que me hizo el ultrasonido una muchacha súper seria ni hablaba como mal humorada me hacía el ultrasonido y encima me hicieron esperar en un cuarto superior pequeños con dos sillas solamente y cerrado . Horrible no me gustó la última vez que fui .
Excellent
Everyone was super friendly. I was called on time for my appointment. The only thing i wished was for the tech to go over the ultrasound in detailed while doing the ultrasound because half i'm the time I didn't know what I was looking at. Also, I had to tell 4 different people we didn't want to know the gender, so just wished as a group the communicated. Other than that I had a good experience! Dr. was nice and answered all my questions.
This was my first time here as my Dr sent a referral over for some minor issues during my pregnancy. I just have to rave about my ultrasound tech, she went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable, all the anatomy she was scanning she informed me of what it was and then she gave me so many photos of baby. I wish I got her name but I was there Thursday for a 10am appt, whoever she was, she was an angel. The doctor was also so amazing, she reassured me so I wouldn’t stress, she explained everything to make sure I understood what was going on and that I wasn’t confused. Overall my first time here was a great experience.
Everyone was so nice and informative and made sure that you understood everything that was being done. Dr. Akiyama was also very nice and I didn’t have to wait long for her to come in and explain the results of my ultrasound.

Staff was efficient and detailed. Felt comfortable.
Kind and helpful!
Both our Genetics Counselor and Dr. Golpalani were absolutely wonderful. I didn't feel rushed and got answers to all of my questions. Our US tech was incredible, she took the time to explain everything she was doing and exactly what we were looking at. This was a huge thing for us as first time parents. The entire office staff was warm and caring, which is so important during a time like this. I would recommend them to anyone!
Extremely friendly and bubbly with a great attitude! She answered all my questions and addressed my concerns without rushing. Amazing doctor!
He is an amazing doctor. His bed side manner is so kind and he listened to my concerns that I had about my daughter.
This place is incredible and very thorough. I got referred here as a high risk patient at 32 weeks for my pregnancy. The staff here are very sweet and understanding they walk you through the entire process and reassure you the whole time. My ultrasound tech was just the sweetest women but super professional in her job. My doctor was very clear in her explanations and made sure my husband and i understood everything before walking out the door. 10/10 place of only this place was a regular obgyn I would’ve started my care with them from the start! You’re in good hands here! Trust them and you will not be disappointed.
