I was really doubting myself as it was somewhat unusual and she made me feel seen & believed me when I told her my worries. She has great follow up care and asked how I was after & overall I felt very taken care of by her.

We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Livingston during the birth of our daughter this weekend. As…read morefirst-time parents, our precipitous labor was completely unexpected. I arrived already 10 cm dilated, and the doctor came in while things were pretty chaotic but handled everything very calmly. I wasn't able to get an epidural in time, but she still advocated for me and supported my request to try, which meant a lot. She also guided me through different positions to help me push more effectively, which made a big difference. I especially appreciated her communication when our daughter's heart rate was dipping during contractions. She kept us informed and gave us a thoughtful heads-up about possible next steps without making us feel rushed or pressured. Very grateful to have a healthy baby and such a smooth recovery so far!

After being unsatisfied by my previous primary care providers due to always feeling rushed and dismissed, I am really glad to have found Dr. Livingston. The appointment did not feel rushed, she asked many questions and also listened to my concerns seriously. She is very knowledgeable and gave feedback on what could be done / tested on my concerns & what wouldn't be helpful, and she also help set up any follow up tests necessary. My only wish is that it's easier to find appointment availability as I had to book months ahead, but I think that speaks to how great she is! Although it was just my first appointment, I'm looking forward to working with Dr. Livingston as I feel like she genuinely cares and will take care of her patients! Also front desk is efficient & friendly even though they were very busy. It was easy to book other appointments with the front desk.

It was only 2 days later after having intercourse with my husband that the profuse bleeding started, which ended up in an Urgent Care visit. How did I have a BIOPSY and then be sent home with ZERO AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS?!?!?! And how the hell am I supposed to know on my own that I was to avoid ANYTHING IN THE VAGINAL AREA for 2-4 weeks????? Terrible service. RISKY service. I could have ended up with an infection!!!!! I called their emergency nurse who consulted me to go to urgent care, and NO ONE HAS EVEN CALLED ME TO CHECK AND SEE HOW THE SUNDAY URGENT CARE VISIT WENT! Terrible. I'd give no stars if I could.

She seemed dismissive of me…read morecompletely, was uninterested in discussing what symptoms I had and told me to wait for menopause to feel better. I requested any kind of testing or treatment such as a biopsy because I had been having chronic pain for more than two years and couldn't just wait for menopause to start on the off chance that would resolve it. She told me I needed to eat more fruits and veggies and lose weight. I got up and said we are done and walked out. Turns out I have had deep pelvic endometriosis all this time and it's now attaching to my colon, which could cause other major health challenges. Telling someone to lose weight without any actual medical treatment or care is a recipe for disaster and cause for malpractice liability.

Dr De Winter is number 1 Urogynecologist in the south bay!! She has been treating for interstitial…read morecystitis for about 3 years now.. Interstitial cystitis is a chronic condition and could be very painful that your literally in bed or stuck on the toilet.. That was me 3 years ago.. I was referred to a Urologist in Torrance 2 different times and that lady was no help.. She said I don't know what you want me to do I don't have a UTI.. That's what I thought I had before.. Then I told my general Doctor I'm in so much pain still so I went to a gynocologyst and at that point we thought it could be endometriosis which I ended up having so and had laparoscopy surgery and recovered but still was in a lot of pain and going peeh 11 to 18 times at night and was in the worst pain ever at this point.. I go back to my general Doctor and he sends me back to a different Urologist in Torrance with this Doctor I do believe he was trying to figure out what was going on but was seing him for almost a year and he was changing my antibiotics and treating me for an active bladder and did electrical stimulation.. Unfortunately nothing was working.. I decided to search on my own for the best gynocologyst/Urologist and I saw Dr Lauren De Winter!! I made my appointment!! The day I saw her I was having a hard time walking and was in tears.. I told her all of my symptoms and she tells me she thinks it's interstitial cystitis but to confirm I would need surgery.. So we start the process and I have the surgery.. She was percent correct!! She said my bladder was in bad shape and I had hunner ulcers she took care of them and also injected me with botox to relax my bladder so I don't have to peeh as often and also tried to stretch my bladder while being under anesthesia... It was a success!! Doctor De Winter gave me back my life.. I thought I was dying or had cancer I just couldn't live under that much pain anymore.. I'm on medication and get instalation that help with my bladder pain. Those are the best!! I like to get them before I go on a trip or once I start feeling uncomfortable and pressure. Doctor De Winter saved me she really did!! I recommend anyone that is having a hard time getting a diagnosis or anyone that needs a gynocologyst or urologist.. She cares about her patients and is the most sweetest/hard working Doctor I know!! She has so much knowledge and definitely knows what she is doing!! Oh and did I mention all her staff are the sweetest too!! I love this office!! They all work so good together!!

Patient care is her top priority. During my visits, she spent the time to listen and answer my questions. Her answers were thorough, thoughtful, and based in science. If she was ever unsure, she would research it and then get back to me. I always felt secure in knowing that I was in great hands. She is absolutely the best and am lucky to have her as my OBGYN. She also has a group of incredible nurses who are efficient and kind. Every time I have messaged them (either via the Memorialcare portal or over the phone), they have responded back within minutes to at most a couple hours even to questions that are not time sensitive. When I have an appointment, rarely do I have to wait. The nurses get me in and take my vitals and information. Dr. Karm is usually close behind. Overall, she is the best at what she does and has a great team of nurses. If you are lucky to have her as your OBGYN or even get to have an appointment with her, you've hit the jackpot!

I wanted to share my experience being a patient of Dr. Karm. In my opinion, Dr. Karm performed two…read morecervical biopsies on me without appropriate pain management. The first time she performed this procedure on me, she said told me to take an aspirin before I arrived. Then prior to taking the biopsy she told me it might "Pinch" or there might be some "Pressure." I didn't know what to expect since I had never had this procedure done outside of a surgical room under anesthesia with a previous doctor. After the experiencing this procedure with Dr. Karm, I found this procedure to be incredibly painful - and was really shocked that all I was provided was advice to take an aspirin prior to arriving. The second time Dr. Karm needed to perform a cervical biopsy on me, I asked her if I could have something for pain management and she said no because, "It's too quick of a procedure to justify needing pain management." She went on to explain that the pain management she could provide would take longer than the procedure itself, so she said she would not be providing pain management for my cervical biopsy for that reason. Taking an aspirin prior to having someone perform a biopsy that felt like having your cervix hole punched repeatedly was not proper pain management as far as my needs were concerned. In my experience, Dermatologists perform skin biopsies and Dentists pull teeth quickly, but both do so with appropriate pain management. I feel the amount of time it takes to perform a procedure does not equate to the level of pain management needed.

Thankfully, another doctor in Torrance listened and developed a treatment plan- something Dr. Several would not do for me. I left her office crying and my husband was in disbelief. This is the kind of medical neglect that kills Black women. Stay away.

Dr. Olsund NOT RECOMMENDED - Uterine Niche Repair The staff…read moreat Marina OB-GYN were very kind and helpful, but my experience with Dr. Elisabeth Olsund was extremely disappointing. I scheduled my appointment about three weeks in advance and clearly explained what the visit was for -- a uterine niche (isthmocele) repair consultation. When I arrived, I went through the normal check-in process: weight, height, blood pressure, etc. A medical assistant then came in and told me that the doctor couldn't see me unless she had my medical records. I said that wasn't a problem and that I could get them sent over right away. I also pushed back and asked why the doctor couldn't at least come in and meet me during my scheduled appointment time -- I had an appointment, and she had that time blocked for me. Still, the assistant said no, the doctor wouldn't come in until she reviewed the records. The assistant then encouraged me to call my other doctors to get the records, and she and the staff worked closely with me to make it happen. They were even on the computer trying to download and properly upload everything for the doctor. So the doctor was fully aware that we were actively getting her everything she needed in order to see me. Despite that, once all the records and images were sent and confirmed, the assistant came back and said the doctor still wouldn't see me because her schedule was now full. Dr. Olsund never came out to meet me, introduce herself, or even apologize for the situation. For a patient coming in for a specialized procedure, this lack of professionalism and basic courtesy was unacceptable. I left feeling completely dismissed and disrespected. Either the doctor isn't confident in performing the procedure, or she simply didn't care enough to speak to me directly. In either case, I would not recommend her. A doctor who won't even come in during a scheduled appointment -- after all records were provided -- should not be trusted to perform surgery.
