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. Contreras Is very kind and you are the only person she is worried about for as long as it takes. We all chose surgery after the tests. During Surgery she thought she found cancer and so stopped and had me in with an OBGYN Oncologists in 2 days. Yes it was cancer and I was informed that I had a great Dr. to stop rather then take the chance of spreading it throughout my whole system. Yes I am going through treament for cancer but it could have worse.

First visit was fine, she seemed to be interested in listening and explaining about my pregnancy & the baby but on the follow up visits, she is always in a hurry. Spends less than 5 mins checking & talking with patient. Seems like dr contreras & her staffs esp the receptionist is just up for the money! Receptionist also is rude & shady! I would not recommend this clinic! Money is their concern NOT patients!!!

Would be interested to know dr's cesarean rate against the average recommended by ACOG. Dr induced me exactly on my "due date" without any medical indication. Ultimately ended in cesarean when she didn't want to wait any longer because she would've missed dinner with her husband. Should have never been induced in the first place as my cervix was not favorable. Only good thing was that I learned how important it is to be your own advocate and that you can't always trust a Dr...

I came back to this practice because I loved Dr. Aron as he had a part in delivering both of my children! Well I never got to see him and everyone that I did encounter here showed absolutely no compassion. I came in for an emergency visit was brushed of by a P. A. I then had to go sit in the emergency room for 6 hrs! after having paid these people my copay to be told I had exactly what I told the PA I had in the first place! Rude staff including office manager! I won't be back! Terrible PA!
