I cannot recommend Dr. Badheka and her team highly enough! From the very first prenatal visit…read morethrough to the delivery of our baby, I felt completely supported, heard, and cared for. Although I wasn't able to have Dr. Badheka as my provider from the very start of my pregnancy, I am so glad I was able to switch to Sutter and her as soon as she began accepting patients again in my early second trimester. One thing I appreciated deeply was how she approached my pregnancy with thoughtful, individualized care. Being over 35, I was initially worried about being automatically labeled "high-risk," but Dr. Badheka never made my pregnancy feel unnecessarily medicalized or complicated because of my age. Instead, she guided me with evidence-based information and calm reassurance, helping me feel informed and confident every step of the way. Dr. Badheka has incredible bedside manner, always calm, kind, and compassionate. She consistently took the time to truly listen to my questions and concerns at every visit, and she made me feel like not only an active partner in my care, but also fully in charge of my decisions. Communication through the health portal was always prompt and thoughtful, which made a huge difference in easing anxiety between appointments. One of the things I appreciated most was how respectful and supportive she was of my birth preferences. I had a detailed birth plan and chose to have a doula present during delivery, both of which were not only accepted but genuinely welcomed. I never felt pressured into anything I wasn't comfortable with, which made the experience that much more empowering and meaningful. I also feel incredibly lucky that Dr. Badheka happened to be the on-call OB during my labor and delivery. She handled everything with such care, presence, and professionalism. Her composure, clear communication, and emotional support made all the difference in helping me feel safe and confident throughout the process. It's rare to find a provider who is both medically excellent and emotionally attuned. I feel so fortunate to have had Dr. Badheka by my side during such a significant chapter of my life. If you are looking for an OB who truly listens, respects your choices, and provides exceptional care, look no further!

TLDR: you will be lucky to have Dr Wigginton as your OBGYN!…read more When I found out I was pregnant, I relied on Yelp reviews to pick my OBGYN. I saw Dr Wigginton's glowing reviews I thought they were too good to be true. With this being my first pregnancy (and in COVID times) I had so many questions. Dr Wigginton was patient and calm, and always took the time to address everything on my mind and provided me with all the information I needed. She is also extremely personable and remembered details from my previous appointments and followed up on them and truly made me feel cared for as a patient. Jill, a nurse on her staff, was always friendly and easy to contact and I was able to schedule all my appointments easily as her schedule opened up each month. When it came time to deliver my baby (due on Thanksgiving week), she assured me she would try her best to be there. Lucky for me, she was on call that day and because of that, I had every confidence that my baby and myself would be in the best hands. The delivery went extremely smoothly and even one of the nurses that came by mentioned how much everyone on the floor loves Dr Wigginton. One caveat, she is super popular and books up, so be prepared to wait especially if you book an afternoon appointment and she runs late, but I do think that is a minor inconvenience to the amazing OBGYN that she is and great care you will receive.

I started my journey with Dr. Aimee 10 years ago, when I first went to see her about freezing my…read moreeggs. At the time, I wasn't ready to start a family, but I wanted to keep my options open. I didn't have a lot of eggs, so I had to undergo several retrievals. As I got older, the quality of my eggs also declined. At my last retrieval, when I was 40, Dr. Aimee recommended trying PRP. She was very honest with me that it was a newer procedure, but that the results were promising. I ended up retrieving just two eggs. We created embryos, and incredibly, we ended up with one healthy baby boy and one healthy baby girl. Our son--the little boy my husband had always hoped for--came from one of those eggs I retrieved at age 40. With Dr. Aimee's help, I became pregnant through IVF, and we welcomed our beautiful son, who is now 2 1/2 years old. When we decided we wanted a second child, my previous delivery had been difficult, so we made the decision to use a surrogate. Once again, Dr. Aimee was there for us every step of the way. She connected me with multiple agencies, and I didn't have to wait long before finding an amazing surrogate who had been screened by Dr. Aimee. She was local, which meant I was able to be part of the pregnancy and birth journey in a way that was incredibly special to me. I also had a difficult time finding an in-network doctor we felt comfortable with, and Dr. Aimee personally recommended someone and helped make the connection. She went above and beyond--not just as our fertility doctor, but as someone who genuinely cared about helping us complete our family. Our healthy baby girl was just born, and she is absolutely perfect. I am so incredibly grateful to Dr. Aimee and her amazing team for everything they have done for our family over the past 10 years. They have been there for us through every stage of this journey, and I truly don't know what our family would look like without them. My husband jokes that if Dr. Aimee told me to jump off a bridge, I probably would. And honestly, he's right. That's how much I trust her. She is kind, compassionate, brilliant, honest, and direct. She always has her patients' best interests at heart and works tirelessly to help them achieve their dreams of building a family. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Aimee for helping us bring our two beautiful children into the world. She didn't just help us have babies--she helped us complete our family. I cannot recommend her and her team highly enough.

Dr. Aimee first helped us 7 years ago after my husband and I were struggling for 4 years. We did…read moreone egg retrieval and got two embryos. We got my first son from that round. After many years, my husband and I decided to try again. This time, we went through his insurance. We had such a horrible experience with the other clinic, we moved our leftover embryos back with Dr. Aimee. She gladly accepted to help us with our second. I cannot praise Dr. Aimee enough! She is a literal angel on earth. The reason we went to Dr. Aimee for our first son was because we didn't want to be treated like another number on a conveyor belt and she did not disappoint. Dr. Aimee goes above and beyond what anyone could ever expect as a patient. She has amazing bedside manners, she's hilarious and she answers any and all questions very thoroughly - I always wonder how she sleeps. If results didn't go our way, she showed us so much compassion. We never felt like another number/statistic and that's more than you can ever ask for while going through the stress of IVF. She might not take insurance, but you definitely get what you pay for. I've been with her for 2 retrievals, 6 years apart resulting in my 2 beautiful babies. We cannot thank Dr. Aimee enough! I've seen her practice expand and it's exciting to see how many more people she's able to help. Her team is AMAZING, warm and comforting. They communicate and troubleshoot issues efficiently and effectively. I never had any surprises with procedures or billing. We would recommend her a million times over because she is such a gem in Healthcare and an amazing human being. Thank you Dr. Aimee for helping us expand our family two times!! Saying we are greatful for Dr. Aimee is an understatement. We get to cherish our beautiful babies because of you. We love you!

As a woman, over the years I've been to quite a few Gyno's and when I found Dr. Task, I knew that…read moreI'd stay for awhile. I moved out of town in the fall, in the midst of my pregnancy, and drove in for each and every appointment (as well as for the delivery) because she is such a wonderful doctor. She is part of Bay Valley Medical Group and works out of both Eden & St. Rose. The office has 2 other OBGYN's (I believe) and a NP and has been quite busy every time I've gone in. There was only one occasion I was left waiting and it was because Dr. Task was held up in surgery...a pretty good reason, if you ask me. The nursing staff is also tops, and Dr. Tasks' right-hand gal, Marlene, was/is extraordinarily helpful as well. After having my daughter, I could have easily found a local OBGYN in my town, but I'm keeping Dr. Task and will continue to commute in to Hayward just to see her.

I'm currently trying to transfer my prenatal care from UCSF to Sutter Health in Castro Valley. I had my first new pregnancy appointment scheduled with a nurse under Dr. Garima Loharuka's care at Eden Medical Center. Unfortunately, I was just 3 minutes past the grace period due to confusion navigating the campus as it was my first time there. From the parking lot to the various building entrances, everything was unclear. I initially went to the main hospital entrance, waited in line at registration, only to be redirected to a different registration area for new patients. From there, I was sent to Labor & Delivery, who finally pointed me to the correct location--the Medical Offices Building next door. By the time I reached the correct office, I was 3 minutes late past their cutoff. Despite explaining the situation, and being visibly pregnant, nauseous, and exhausted from rushing around unfamiliar buildings, the staff refused to see me. They simply said their schedule was tight and canceled my appointment. I understand schedules are important, but some flexibility and compassion go a long way especially in prenatal care. If they can't accommodate a first-time patient delayed by unclear directions, how will they handle the unpredictability of labor and delivery? This experience left me feeling unseen and unsupported at a time I needed understanding the most.
