But that is not why I chose to write this review 5 years later. I have since moved to New York and went to have my IUD replaced today as it had been 5 years since the initial insertion. I did not know until today that the IUD I got at Physicians & Midwives was placed incorrectly, and the doctors today spent the better half of an hour finding it inside of me let alone removing it. I wouldn't ever tell a family or friend of mine to seek any sort of service from this practice.

Words cannot describe how amazing Dr. Bannon was at my appointment. She greeted me warmly so it…read morefelt like, even at my first appointment, I had known her for a long time. She either looked over my chart, or spoke with the nurse before meeting me, and started our conversation right away addressing my situation. This may seem so small- but I can tell you it's not the norm for other physicians in the industry. I've seen the same OBGYN multiple days in a row, even while getting ready for surgery- and had them suggest multiple times that I could start a "new" medication, when I'm already on that medication. In a busy practice with lots of patients I can only imagine how difficult it is to be on time and keep things straight, but it's a terrible feeling when you're at some of your lowest moments to realize your doctor doesn't have the faintest idea who you are and couldn't be bothered to glance at your chart before scurrying into your room. Dr. Bannon made me feel like a person who mattered, and that is a lost gift. She did not make me feel rushed, and took the time to talk about my concerns and answered all of my questions. I'm so, so relieved I found her. Definitely worth the wait in trying to make an appointment and see her for the first time.

I had heard great things of CWC, so I decided to give them a try. I'm upset that I ever gave them a chance. I have never had such a difficult time getting in contact with the doc (Tran) - no follow-ups, no callbacks to multiple messages, no sharing of results that were weeks and weeks overdue; and, all this due to an improper administration of tests - how is that even possible? And, to top it off, have you ever heard of a front desk receptionist giving patients some vague results of a test?! Seriously?! The receptionists have complete disregard to your privacy, your time, and dismisses you and all of your concerns. Did I mention that they laugh at you, too? Yes, you read that correctly. They are awful. Avoid CWC at all costs. +HIPAA/patient confidentiality not respected +no communication with docs +worst front desk, ever

I've waited a year to post my review. While I believe that many patients are helped by Dr. Moawad,…read moremy experience has not been stellar. What I do appreciate is that Dr. Moawad was able to give me a diagnosis and put some pieces together for me that multiple providers had not done after 3 years of chronic pelvic pain and horrible periods that still negatively impact my quality of life. My first visit was great, I felt cared for and seen. I do believe that Dr. Moawad cares and has developed his skills and knowledge to help as many women as possible. My endo was advanced when it was caught, which may be why I'm still having significant impacts from it a year after surgery. I knew that one surgery would not fix all of the things, but I did expect that my quality of life would improve. That has not been the case thus far. The surgery coordinator said to me, when she was trying to get me to commit to the payment, that my life would change. So far the only real change is that I have increased my debt in order to pay for the surgery. Three things that I wish had been different in my experience: 1. More thorough education about endo and adenomyosis, which I also have. I was given the option to have laparoscopic surgery to include a hysterectomy or not. I chose to keep my uterus, as I was not emotionally ready to have that procedure. If there had been clearer information about the adenomyosis part, I may have made a different decision. My periods have gotten worse after surgery, and I am incapacitated for 2-3 days each month. I also still have the chronic pelvic pain (from pudendal neuralgia) which has only moderately improved after surgery. 2. Customer service. When the initial consult fee is close to $1000 and the surgery is out of network (costing thousands of dollars) I expect a very high level of customer service. This was not my experience. I felt like a paycheck to the admin staff and surgery coordinator. Multiple times I emailed into the office with questions and after 3 days or so, would ping them again. In my experience of over 20 years in the professional world, the general expectation is a 24 hour time window for answers and communication. I realize that the answer to a question may take longer depending on the doctor's schedule or billing service, but I do expect a response to acknowledge my request and give an ETA on an answer. I would suggest that the office staff need some training on customer service at a high level. 3. After care. I experienced new and different pain after my surgery and reached out to Dr. Moawad's office for support. I was referred to a pain specialist whom I met with twice and he did not have helpful recommendations. On my own, I found a practice that does pelvic rehabilitation medicine and have engaged with them. They informed me that they have a relationship with Dr. Moawad and I wish that he had referred me to them when I had continued pelvic pain after surgery and to this day. Endometriosis is a horrible disease that affects millions of women. I'm glad there is expertise, I just wish I felt better a year after surgery.

Since my first appointment with Dr Moawad, I felt heard and validated. Not only is he very skilled but also very caring and compassionate. He asked a lot of questions, did a pelvic exam and predicted I had Endometriosis. He then requested an MRI (which confirmed the endo), and we scheduled the surgery. The surgery went really well and my recovery was not bad at all. It felt great knowing that he removed all my endometriosis and my symptoms are significantly better since then. Thank you Dr Moawad and the CEAPS team for such a seamless experience. Getting surgery can be overwhelming but your care and compassion made it a lot easier! I can't recommend the CEAPS team enough.

I refused bc I have PPO insurance that covers my annual appts. I only went to this practice one time to see Sarah Coleman and thankfully she has since left this incompetent practice! So then 3.5 months later, they charged me another $25 as a fee for digitally sending my records for Sarah Coleman from the one appt -- the same records that are on my Privia profile that I could have sent myself. They clearly need to charge these bogus fees to make up for the overhead they're losing since patients are fleeing this clown practice.
