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.

Wrong Field
I'm all for a provider that uses comic relief - but this man shows absolutely no resemblance of professionalism. Inappropriate comments with no actual medical explanation/guidance, no informed consent, very aggressive with internal examinations. It saddens and frightens me that he works with women and babies.

Dismissive Dr
Twice now, once with each pregnancy, Dr Dinsmore completely dismissed my symptoms of severe preeclampsia and sent me home, only to have me have my son days later two months early. He discharged me without discussing my test results, without discussing my symptoms, without discussing what I’m comfortable with. Very dismissive doctor, not willing to listen to his patients.

He was the laborist when I went into the hospital to deliver my daughter summer 2020. He was aggressive with his examination, made inappropriate comments and didn't listen to anything I said. He told me I needed to go home and wait to see my doctor the following day because I wasn't dilating. I told him my contractions had been progressing to 1.5 mins apart and they were unbearable. He told me to come back when they got worse. My water broke in the lobby after he sent my downstairs. As I was wheeled back up he asked me if I "stuck a coat hanger up there and did that" while paying me in the hall. Things progressed fast enough that I was unable to have any pain relief. As I screamed, he told me in an annoyed voice "you're not even contacting right now." Despite my efforts to kick him across the room at that point, my daughter came... And he didn't even catch her, she fell onto the table. He acted as if he had no care in the world the entire time, never conversed with me. Never again.

He Delivered my daughter.He never engaged in a proper conversation always a few sentences whenever I came for a checkup.The day my daughter was being brought into the world via c-section, during the process he said “I’m gonna vacuum this sucker outta here.” Very rude.He also walked around with his tattooed arms exposed,looking very unprofessional.I wouldn’t recommend him to anyone.

Do not use this "doctor". Very unprofessional. Inappropriate comments. I was seeing him for a couple of years, never really comfortable with him, when I began having issues and needed a hysterectomy. He told me it could only be done invasively because of internal stuff. When I went for a 2nd opinion he was offended, angry, and obnoxious. I was told by the second opinion doctor that it could be done laproscopically. So why would I be told it needed to be invasive when it didn't? Incompetent.

I don't care what they say....Dr D is the best! I trust him and he is cool. Humans can be laid back and chill. Trust is more important and feeling comfortable to talk to. If you leave a msg then its not an emergency, he attends to his clients on spot. He delivered my boys and I still go to him wherever he moves his office too. He is a fab OB GYN!

Dr Dinsmore has been my Dr for about 9 years now and he is not the same person he once was. In fact, I have an apt with a new OBGYN this week...and here's why. I went to him with an issue at the beginning of the year and it is now 3 months later and still no resolution. It took him one month to get back to me with test results recommending additional tests, and then another month about an MRI recommending further investigation. I've called the office many times and he does not return calls!

For one... try calling his office to speak to a human... Be prepared to leave a message on a answering machine (don't hold your breath waiting for a return call). Nice at first but acts like he could care less now. Had test done over 1 month ago and have yet to speak to him. I am tired of calling his office. I now have an appt. coming up with a new doctor.

I have been seeing Dr. Dinsmore for a few years. He was very nice on my first visits. However on my last visit he treated completely different for the worse. He went from Jekyll to Hide. I even asked him "you are Dr. Ronald Dinsmore?" because his demeanor changed. He seemed angry at me and slammed his fist at the table while reading and telling my information from the computer. He printed out papers out my mental health and gave them to me, which I never volunteer this information to him...I
