Love the staff and doctor and his PA. They listen and care. Clinch did my emergency c section 12 years ago and he was fast acting and kept baby and myself safe and healthy. read more

Love Doctor Clinch and his great southern hospitality of medical care. I just recently had a hysterectomy, and Dr. Clinch did a Excellent job with great post op care too. He is very wise, kind, and dad-like Doctor. He will take care of you trust me. The front office is very friendly. read more

Here I am 12 years later and still ever so grateful for the care I received from Dr. Clinch. I was so young then, 19 years old, scared and very very very sick. By the time I had my first appointment with Dr. Clinch my body had already began shutting down due to starvation and malnutrition. I suffered from a severe case of Hyperemesis Gravidarum. Between Zofran, Unisom and B12, Phenergan, Reglan, IV hydration, ER visits, hospital stay, PICC line, home nurse visits - Dr. Clinch did EVERYTHING in his power to make my HG bearable. I regret not listening to his advice when he asked me to not leave PHX to chase a boy mid pregnancy after he had worked tirelessly nursing me back to health. It's safe to say that my health plummeted after I left from Dr. Clinch's care, but it is because of him and his efforts that I even survived the rest of my pregnancy. Dr. Clinch saved two lives and I am my forever thankful. 10/10 would recommend!!! read more

Ill never go back. I came in at 3:25 as a new patient with a 3:45 appt. At 4:20, about an hour after arrival, I asked if I was going to be seen. After 5 mins, they brought me back to Charles Clinch's office where I continued to wait another 15 mins. When he came in, he asked me how I was doing and I told him "Ok, just a little impatient." An appropriate answer could have been "I'm sorry. I understand you've been waiting a long time. Thank you for being patient while we were dealing with xyz" Charles Clinch's answer? "So did you want to just leave? Cause it is what it is" But OH! It doesnt end there. I STILL bit the bullet and he jumps straight into asking the factory belt questions: "So you're here for heavy bleeding?" " How long has that been going on?" "Clots?" "What size?" "What birth control are you on?" I told him nothing. "No, what birth control do you use?" Again, nothing. "Ok, what measures of precaution do you use to prevent pregnancy?" Really? Nothing. "So are you trying to get pregnant?" I said "Not right away" "So youre not trying and not preventing?" "Yes" Precisely! So it took him "20 questions" to get to that point as opposed to letting me explain all my history. "Well we may want to just put you on a hormonal birth control for 3 months to try to find out if its hormonal or not. Or if you want we can try to do some lab work to actually find out the cause" (Well, what would your answer be?) Clinch doesn't listen, he just talks at you. His next statements: "So your body goes through what's called an ovulation cycle and sometimes with heavy bleeding you get anovulatory cycles. You do know what ovulation is? Are you familiar with how that works?" "Well, yes." "Ovulation...." Blah blah blah. Again, he doesn't listen! I just told him yes. Do I know as much as you? No. You're the one with the fancy degree and machinery for a diagnosis. This doctor needs some compassion, empathy, bed side manner, and a set of big ears instead of a big mouth. If he had let me explain, he would've found out that I've had a child already, I'm very familiar with what ovulation is and what main hormones are at play, what birth control I have used in the past, how many ml I've bled this month because I use a menstrual cup, etc. But no... I couldnt take it anymore. I couldn't take the demeaning, condescending words, tones, looks. I left and got my money back. Now this is obviously a long, detailed review. I care about you enough - the reader, the one searching desperately for a good doctor, the one hoping that these reviews will give you an idea of what to expect - to suggest to you to look elsewhere. And follow what your gut is telling you. I should've walked away sooner when I heard all the pharmaceutical commercials on replay, telling me he's probably the kind to just write a script and call it good. Or when almost every page you fill out as a new patient is all about how they're going to get paid and how they'll tack on fees for all sorts of things like an extra $10 bucks if they have to send you a bill a 2nd time. Or when I saw patients come in after me and go ahead of me because they had a different (obviously better) doctor. Or when I waited over an hour. Or when I was asked by Clinch himself if I just wanted to leave. All moments I should have listened to my gut and just left. At least I got my money back without a fight. read more

Dr Clinch is amazing ! He is straightforward and tells you how it is. Him and his front staff are accommodating and kind. They worked with me beforehand on payments that would need to be made before my delivery so that there was no added stress during or afterwards when I have a newborn to take care of. I almost had to have an emergency C-Section because my daughters heart rate was dropping, he was able to save the day by using the forceps. No C-Section and daughter is perfectly healthy. Thank you Dr Clinch!! read more

Love dr clinch he is very caring and personable! He is going out of his way to help me with my delivery! My insurance changed and he is still working with me although my insurance is not!! I could not be happier with him read more

I think Dr. Clinch is a wonderful doctor. He delivered my daughter 19 months ago and also helped us threw the process of a miscarriage just a couple weeks ago. He's old school. He doesn't do a million ultra sounds and doesn't do what is not necessary. He has a plan and that's the plan. My personal opinion is that's the way it should be. I didn't go to school to be a doctor and I need someone to take charge. He never leaves the room without a warm hug. And I'm a hugger so I liked that. He's straight to the point and knows exactly what he is doing. The only reason I didn't give him 5 stars is because his front office staff though very nice needs some work. I feel like they are all over the place. It's never been anything too serious but still frustrating at times! read more

I have seen doctor Clinch for over 15 years as a patient. I recently came in for a appointment and was told I could not be seen although my insurance was verified. I'm very displeased with the way I was treated and I will NEVER use this doctor nor office again. Clearly all they care about is money and NOT the patient or their condition.. read more

Dr. Clinch delivered both of my sons in the 90's. I had had a different OB/GYN with my first son. I thought he was pretty good, but when he wasn't able to deliver my son, they called in Dr. Clinch. Dr. Clinch felt I needed a C Section and I completely respected his decision. He delivered my son, a healthy, beautiful newborn. Dr. Clinch made a scary situation so much better with his witty banter, as well as his professionalism and straightforward manner. My daughter was born a year later. He didn't deliver her, but since I gave birth to VERY premature twins (unfortunately one daughter died at birth :( ) I was given an emergency C section, which caused me to have to be cut in a way that made me unable to ever give birth naturally. So with my second son, I had Dr. Clinch as my OB/Gyn again. He monitored the baby and I very closely and I had a PLANNED C section with him. LOL. I have a lot of wonderful memories of Dr. Clinch being very funny and witty, as well as knowledgeable and professional. Dr. Clinch, I just want you to know I think of you often as the Dr. who delivered my baby boys. I KNOW you won't remember but Adam Ramey is now 25 and it's actually Arec's 21st birthday today. I planned January 8 for him to be born because it is Elvis' birthday, and I remember you telling me it was your wedding anniversary. God bless you Dr. Clinch. You left an indelible mark in my life and in my memory. With much love and gratitude, Tammy Ramey read more

I Do not recommend this Doctor. Horrible bed side manner (so to speak). It is His way or the Highway literally. He is about procedure not the person! The only reason their is a star is because this site would not allow me to select no stars. read more

We saw Dr. Clinch for the first 4 months of my pregnancy. From the beginning, I though he was decent and knowledgeable, but I never really LOVED him; it actually gave me a weird feeling when he hugged me & told me congratulations during the first appointment (first time I met him). We were not given the opportunity to do a first trimester NT screening, and since it was my first pregnancy, I didn't know that I should have to ask for it (note: I SHOULDN'T have had to ask for it). I came across information about that screening the day before my 15 week appointment. Dr. Clinch wasn't there for my appointment, so I asked Geri about it; she seemed to have no clue what test I was referring to and that I should call the doctor to ask him. I followed up that afternoon with a message, and I had to call twice to TRY to get an answer. The closest to an explanation that I got was, "We don't do that screening at our office." Over the course of going to his office, I had 2 questions submitted via their online system that went unanswered, and I had to call to follow up to get an answer - so when I was told they don't do the screening, I had already had enough. I found a new doctor (Dr. Brenda Martin of Shea Women's Care... she's FANTASTIC), and called to ask for my records to be transferred. The receptionist said that Dr. Clinch would need to call me to get an explanation of why I was changing doctors, and I replied, "Good; he already owes me a return call." I never got a call back from him, and the records were sent without question. Unfortunately, we found out (during our first appointment with Dr. Martin) that our baby had serious (fatal) health issues with his brain/heart/bowels - and passed away at 18 weeks. Although I know that the early screening would not have changed our baby's health issues, we would have found out much earlier and have had more time to figure out a plan - rather than being blind-sided by it. The only reason I can imagine he wouldn't do that scan is that he thinks the termination rate is higher if issues (such as Down Syndrome) are found, but that's not his call. We deserved the chance to make the decision of doing the first trimester screening... not a doctor who determines if his patients should - or shouldn't - have an early scan. Based on my experience, I would never recommend Dr. Clinch and would actually tell people (women) to stay away. read more

Absolutely LOVE Dr. Clinch! I first met Dr. Clinch in 2000, at this time he suggested hysterectomy. Unfortunately, my insurance co. denied it! I fell victim to the insurance BS and suffered for 17 years with Endometriosis, cyst, irregular periods for 20 days straight and the final issues was Adenomyosis. Dr Clinch did my hysterectomy via DaVinci, I feel great! Finally, after having 2 x D n C's and having to find new GYNO Dr because of insurance reason. I'm so happy, Dr Clinch was on this new insurance. If your looking for a honest, caring Dr and staff, I highly recommend them. Thank you for making me pain free and happy! read more

Love Dr. Clinch and staff. He has guided me through 3 pregnancies and deliveries and also preformed and D and C. He truly cares about his patients and their health and well being. read more

Dr. clinch delivered my first baby. He is very caring and knowledgeable. Do i think he could be a little more understanding of pregnant women and their horomones and emotions? Yes. But he is absolutely thorough and has great NPs working with him. He saved me from having and emergency c section and was very fast acting when my daughters heart rate dropped in half during delivery. Hes old school. He is a fantastic doctor. I rated 4 stars and not 5 because i called the front office very frantic and the staff were very defensive instead of understanding or reassuring. Aside from that, this office is great. read more

Love love love Dr Clinch he has delivered both of my babies and during the first pregnancy we found out that he had actually delivered my husband and his sisters!! nothing like keeping it in the family! As mentioned in the other reviews he is a hugger.. he will give you a hug at the start of every appointment which to me was not weird.. he cares about all of his patients.. also mentioned is that he is a his way or the highway kind of doctor.. I never felt that way in his office at all if I wanted or didn't want to do something I never felt pressured however when we got to the hospital and especially with my second when my head just wasn't in the labor (we almost didn't even make it into a delivery room) he will lay down the law which is really helpful for people who need a little direction.. with the first labor I really appreciated that because I had a horrible nurse who was big on scare tactics and he pretty much walked in the room and shut her down which I really really appreciated! we hope to have more kids and I know for a fact that I will return to 5th ave ob/gyn and have Charles Clinch deliver any others!! read more

Clinch is the best dr around! I have been seeing him for years.. Yes it is his way or no way, but you go to the dr because you are not one ( or can't do it yourself).. Again he is the best! And has the very best bed side manner, and he always remembers you! read more
