  • First Dr. [redacted] is my OBGYN and he was unavailable so bc I am high risk I tried to see a Dr. ASAP. Your office accommodated me but the Dr. had no bedside manner at all. She hardly spoke or introduced herself. She looked at me and my chart told me my test was negative and really no other explanation but to take a blood test. [redacted] Bc my situation is already nerve racking I expected more from her. [redacted] I would have expected more especially since I am already a patient under [redacted] and the only reason I waa seeing Dr. CO waa due to timing and sensitive nature. [redacted]

  • My experience with this provider was excellent. And I also just want to quickly note that earlier I marked them on two out of the scale of four a few times before I realized the scale went up to four. I would give perfect marks across the board. Thank you.

    2026-04-18

  • [redacted] Dr. Nandi and Nurse [redacted] were so kind, and they listened to me on my first explanation of the issues I've been having--I was prepared to have to explain every symptom in detail to convince them that there was an issue, and I didn't have to because they both believed me right away. Dr. Nandi was very patient, and she explained clearly what might be going on for me and different things we could do to try to address it. I felt informed and taken seriously and very relieved. [redacted]

  • Dr. Chihombori-Quao was awesome in every aspect. She was very warm and personable, first of all, and put me at ease. She was very familiar with my issues, even though this was my first time seeing her. She knew why I was there, and understood my past experience. We discussed the options, which in my case, is to have the procedure that I tried to do before but was too painful, done under a light sedative. I was so relieved and she was so reassuring. it is important that I get it done, but I was very scared to do it again. I totally trust her, and felt like she genuinely cared about me. She was also right on time (and as I said, prepared) and didn't do what some doctors do - talk about other patients at length and not my specific case. She really was great. So glad to be able to see her.

    2026-03-09

  • Dr CQ was very prompt, listened and took exceptional care with me. I need up having a minor health problem but she explained the commonality of this with many women and put me at great ease. She is very attentive and cares about my issues and. needs

  • It was clear that my appointment was being rushed through; it was a Friday afternoon before a three-day weekend. The provider was 30 minutes late to the appt. She rushed through the appointment and was dismissive about my concerns; I was referred due to having fibroids diagnosed, and I felt that I could not discuss this during the appt. I was looking for more information to better understand the diagnosis, and I felt dismissed because mine were not "as big as footballs" and because I declined a medication. I also tried to bring up a concern regarding family medical history and felt like it was an inconvenience to her that I asked; it seemed like it was just preventing her from being able to rush through a pap smear so she could leave. [redacted]

    2026-01-22

  • This was my first time meeting with Dr. Chihombori-Quao and she was so pleasant. She listened attentively, asked follow-up questions and made suggestions. She was patient and kind which was very welcoming.

    2026-01-18

  • She was very caring and understanding

    2026-01-18

  • Dr. Quao was dismissive and borderline rude when I asked some medical questions. I did receive accurate care, testing, and diagnosis for my infection which I very much appreciate. However, her bedside manner could use some work. It was the end of the day and it seemed as though she was ready to check out for the day. I will note she is not my usual provider and I took the appointment because she was available when I needed to be seen and for that I am thankful.

    2026-01-18

  • My provider was really, really kind and helpful and did a really good job. But the appointment was so fast that I wasn't, I said that I was feeling anxious and I wasn't really able to understand what was happening as it was going by so fast. She was doing everything to explain everything to me, but it still felt like it was happening really fast.

    2026-01-16

  • It was good

    2025-11-08

  • I have had Dr. Chihombori-Quao (Dr CQ) for several years now and just adore her. [redacted] While it's preferable to have a doctor you work and communicate well with, I think it's even more important when it's a doctor regarding intimate areas -- a gynecologist. Dr. CQ puts you at ease. She's warm, personable, open and thoughtful. She explains things well, adds further clarity when needed, welcoming questions or concerns. I have told friends & family about her in case they were in need of a new GYN doctor.

    2025-11-09

  • Really nice, got me in within a week, listened to all my concerns, and talked through everything with me.

    2025-10-30

  • As a brand new patient coming with what could be a serious concern, Dr.C-Q could not have been kinder, considerate, a very good listener, and oh so reassuring that she would take care of me and if we needed further intervention, she would find someone very knowledgeable to take care of me. I would highly recommend her. She is a real gem.

    2025-10-26

    2025-10-13

  • The doctor was very thoughtful, explained things very clearly, and was very helpful during our interaction. It was very nice to work with her and I look forward to having her give me care in the future.
