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.

Favorite OB so far
I have regular appointments at Atrium, and I haven’t had a bad experience yet. I recently was able to pick my doctor and date for my scheduled c-section. I was super excited to be able to get O’Dear. During my office visits, he’s been exactly the type of doc I’ve always wanted. He answers questions completely, provides additional information that you’re probably about to ask about after hearing his first answer, he’s kind without being too chatty, he talks quickly (I LOVE this), and he genuinely waits for you to ask any additional questions. He is just really great, and my cup of tea! I’m hoping my little girl stays in long enough to 100% deliver with him.

His bedside manner is excellent. He told us the sex of my first daughter, helped me with the anxiety of losing my second daughter due to stillbirth, and now is helping through my third pregnancy and letting me make the decisions about my care within safety guidelines of course. He makes me feel that I have the ultimate decision making in the care I am receiving and not forcing things on me like previous doctors have done. I feel like I am in total control of my pregnancy and birthing process.

I have always felt like Dr. O'Dear truly cares about his patients. He takes time to answer questions, and listens to what your concerns are. He takes more time than most doctors do with their patients. He is professional and never makes you feel uncomfortable. He is a very good surgeon and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing surgery.
