My appointment was very quick and everyone was kind and helpful. I usually expect to wait a long time in the waiting room and then a long time in the room for the provider to come in, but I was pleasantly surprised when it was a very short wait! It was all great!

I didn't have the greatest experience with the first doctor I saw. She may be a good provider for some but was not the case for me. I filled out a survey and immediately received a call from a director. She listened to my expectations and made a recommendation to see Dr. Kakish. Dr. Kakish was beyond amazing. She was patient and explained options with sensitivity and compassion. She took time to draw visuals and write down my options for further consideration.
She took her time with me and made me feel comfortable. The staff (receptionist, MA, sonographer, and director) was amazing as well. Overall the service recovery was excellent and I will be returning to WSNM. Thank you Dr. Kakish for all you and your team have done.

The ladies in the front office are so rude. I had an appointment today at 12:30. Went to check in and found out my insurance that I just renewed didn't show up in the system so they tried to reschedule me when I said I can pay out of pocket. While I was waiting to be seen the ladies in the front started talking about me right in front of my face saying " why didn't she just reschedule? It's not that serious.
What is she even here for? The only thing I can think of us birth control " like who does that? Just because of my age your gonna assume I'm here for birth control? When I was there for other personal reasons. Did not make me feel comfortable or cared for at all. I fake judged. This place seriously is a joke. Hire new staff who have a genuine compassion for helping females.

I've been seen y Dr. Kakish and had a bad experience with her. She acted annoyed when talking to her. She acted uninterested when going over my lab results and barely answered my questions. The office was supposed to give me a call because I've been referred to another specialist but I have not hear back from them yet (it's been weeks)
