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.

Best OBGYN I have ever had by far
Dr Herde acted quickly when I came to her office complaining of pain from my fibroids and scheduled a hysterectomy which turned out to be a literal life saver as my fibroids were so large that they obscured a tumor on my ovary. Her caring and sensitive manner throughout the process of the surgery and post-op was just fantastic and I could not recommend her highly enough. She truly cares about her patients and you can absolutely sense it.

I LOVE Dr. Herde but the hoops that you have to jump through to see her is super frustrating. Insanely long wait times in the waiting room area- well over an hour each and every time. You have to remember yourself to make an appointment with Dr. Herde SIX MONTHS in advance. This year, I forgot until 4 months from my usual annual check-up and now I'm having great difficulty getting my Rx refilled as NO one is getting back to my pharmacy. I ran out of the Rx because I had to wait SO long to get a routine appointment. This is NOT good! Very upsetting. I actually think I'm going to switch Dr.'s now- very sad to say because I like Dr. Herde so much!

Dr Herde is great, but the office the most poorly run I’ve ever seen. They schedule appointments 15 minutes apart when they know it takes 30-45 minutes for the visits. As a result you sit in the waiting room for a MINIMUM of one hour! Usually more. They have no respect for people’s time. And they do not get the concept of an appointment. The whole idea is you tell me what time is available, I come in at that time, and get seen. Not what time to come in and start waiting. Absolutely unacceptable.

I will highly recommend Dr. Herdy, and her nurse Leyla, so far the best team I have ever had. They were always very friendy and took their time to discuss my issues with me. I never felt rushed out of her office. I miss them so much. I wish I have her care in FL.

Dr. Herde took the time to listen and explain all options. She gave her opinion and allowed me the time to make my decision. At no point in my visit did I feel rushed. She's one of the most compassionate physicians I've met to date. It's also very fortunate that she's an excellent surgeon.
