Dr. William Chavira Jr, MD

Please listen to your instincts. As a nurse if someone is condescending, rude, dismissive, rushed, unkind, impatient, or disrespectful don’t disregard your feelings. These are real. First hand experience working alongside this Dr. I know you deserve much better.

Receptionists and nurses take weeks for any requested paperwork to be given to you. You will have to follow up several times before getting what you need. Next, I requested to keep things Confidential regarding past procedures. Dr. Chavira told family members who were not on my list to talk about my medical records info about my health. He told them that I was not being honest about things and needed to ask me about it. Furthermore, Dr. Chavira told my boyfriend I had a “bad vagina.”

Dr Chavira showed up to my labor because his partner, my Dr. was out of town. 1.5 hours after I arrived in the hospital and being dilated 10cm, he gave me a C-section. I have successfully delivered 5 babies vaginally prior to this horrible experience. He was in a hurry, rude, got all the nurses to back his decision and not help me labor, notifying them to prep me for a c-section. When I asked for an epidural he declined. Then wrote in my records that reason for c-section “failure to progress”.
