Love Oakdale OBGYN. I started going here when pregnant with my first kiddo and had excellent natal and postpartum care. I saw many of the providers, from nurse practitioners to midwives to OBs, and found the care to be exceptional. You're sure to find someone who fits with your personality. I can recommend Jenny Lafond, Lisa Shakerin, Debra Boersma, Wendy Lovaas, Bethany Hjelle, and Jennifer Stoffers. In other words, their whole team is just wonderful. Will continue going here for routine care and future pregnancies if there are any.

Wendy Lovaas, NP was great! Thorough, kind, and a good listener. Although, I was new to her, she had clearly reviewed my chart, so I never felt like I had to "start over." I left with no questions and a clear plan.

Had my annual appointment with Dr. Hallstrom which is 100% covered by my insurance. I asked her for a pamphlet for something we discussed during my last annual checkup. I got my bill and was charged 167.77 she charged me for my annual exam AND an office visit! I have been trying to speak with billing since September with zero success. Mindy R does not call back spoke to Jean F.

I am not paying this bill because this is an insurance scam! I would watch your bills very close if you chose to stay with this group. Update to your response- I have called so many times and have spoken to several folks- you would think you would call me and not have me email you. I would love for someone to call me. If I don't answer leave a message. My phone number is on my account and is accurate.

Wendy is the BEST.she takes the time with you and never rushes any issues you may have. I am so happy she is available during this hard time I would not want to see another provider ever. Thanks Wendy for all you do!

Everything from online registration to the nurse staff to seeing Wendy Lovaas. Wendy was very easy to have a conversation with and is genuinely interested in your well being. Highly recommend!

I started going here in March of 2020 after a previous bad experience with a doctor elsewhere, this place was a breath of fresh air. Dr. Martini is so nice and educational, she explains everything and I can tell she cares. I had to make a last min appointment with a different doctor and she was awesome as well. Plus any of the receptionists and medical assistants I have interacted with have been great. Womens health can be scary sometimes, but I feel well taken care of here :

I went through this provider for my first child two years ago and am going through them now with my second child. Every physician and midwife I met with gave me top quality care. They never make me feel rushed or judged. My delivery went amazing with my midwife and they have many options for appointment times to work with my busy schedule. The only negative is that they currently do not allow children to be present at the appointments.

I hope this changes soon with the pandemic restrictions starting to change. I understand the need for safety, because Covid-19 can be more severe in pregnancy, but this is also a barrier for many women who do not have easy access to childcare.

Today I went to the clinic for the first time and the front desk people and the doctor were very nice. When I left the exam room, a little confused on what way to exit, I walked by two nurses and asked which way I should go, one of them made a really rude comment about me. I was right there, in hearing distance. I have a rare medical disease and many medications to list but other than that I am a very normal person and her comment was extremely rude and unprofessional! There used to be a time when nurses were held to a standard of being understanding and compassionate.

First met Dr. Palmer about a month and a half ago. Great guy who really listens and empathizes with you. Doesn't make you feel like you're a nut case. Been dealing with with endometreosis issues for years. Have had several surgeries in the past. Had surgery with Dr. Palmer this last Monday, the 23rd and he was amazing! I'm still in the healing process but he took the time to explain everything and make sure my husband and I understood everything and the pros and cons of surgery.

After surgery he can in and said I 100% needed that surgery as I had so much going on. He is a true God send and I am so thankful the Lord sent me to him and his team. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone who is a female.
