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.

Dr. Kobe does not care
I had a 3 day window between running out of my birth control and my annual exam with dr. Kobe. I was told I could call and get my birth control refilled to cover those 3 days. Dr Kobe refused to refill the combo birth control that I’ve been on for 12 years with no issue, and instead gave me a different prescription for a mini pill. I called to dispute this, but she doubled down via messages on MyChart. I requested a telehealth meeting just so I can understand the change, but she chose to ignore that message and never responded again. I am so disturbed by the way all of this has happened, and by the way that my choice in birth control has been stolen from me. Dr. Kobe did not care at all about the distress this has caused me, 0 out of 10 absolutely do not recommend this doctor.

Not a Fan
Dr. Kobe is like talking to a brick wall. I’ve seen her about 5 times throughout my pregnancy, which have all been close together bc I’m third trimester. She never remembers me or the details of what we have discussed. She is not warm and inviting. I wouldn’t say she’s overtly snobby, but she is not friendly and has a condescending way of speaking to me each time I see her. She answers my questions, but i would not say I enjoy seeing her, or feel confident about her potentially delivering my baby. I don’t like leaving a prenatal appointment feeling stupid and that’s how I feel when I leave her visits.

Dr. Kobe is: Condescending and patronizing to patients and staff. Contradicts patients’ reports of their own conditions. ZERO compassion ZERO bedside manner. I will not being going back, & only saw her b/c she was in my Insurance “network.” She, like all doctors are performing for the 3-ring circus of hospitals, pharmaceuticals and insurance with the overriding theme of greed, cowardice and lies. Something MUST change. Lavaria, her nurse is just the opposite from Kobe - kind and understanding.

Horrible! She is very rude and snobby! Not welcoming toward her pstients. Waited 30 mins. In a room. She sterilized me without my consent. I went in for removal of an ectopic pregnancy in my left tube and she clipped my right tube that apoeared completely normal without my consent and for no medically necessary reason. I would not refer an animal to her!

Dr. Kobe and staff unnecessarily put me at risk for side effects from my oral contraceptive; the office failed to inform me my prescription would not be refilled unless I paid for an office visit (note, I am not due for a Pap). The office failed to inform me, despite the fact I called and left a message one week prior, my pharmacist requested a refill the same week, and then I called again and spoke to a staff member who assured me the prescription would be refilled that day (though it wasn't).

Dr. Kobe, the other doctors, and the staff were always welcoming, thorough, and knowledgeable. I only left because I moved out of state.

I would not recommend Dr. Kobe to either my friends or family. She is not very informing and friendly towards her patients. She is actually quite rude and snobby towards those whom she works with and just about every single person I saw her interact with. She may be very knowledgeable about her career and other medical information, but when it comes to actually showing concern and care for others, I would give her a very low rating.
