He deserves 6 out of 5 stars ! Gentle, kind, funny and knowledgeable. Dedicated too. His staff is equally excellent. They remember you, treat you like a friend and make themselves available as much as possible. Just sweethearts all around I highly recommend. read more

Gosh, this review is over a year overdue... The initial visit was at 7 weeks post conception. I called to make an appointment and he was able to see me within a week. We talked about expectations and norms during the first trimester and all the testing that needs to be done including genetic screening test for advance maternal age. Both, the game planning and the physical exam lasted for a good 30-40 min. So do allot ample time for the meet and greet/ info session. The rest of the appointments were all routine and quick. I have a background in labor and delivery so there was hardly Q&A sessions. I mostly took the last appointment in the afternoon which was around 3:15. I came in, pee in the cup, get weighed and he'll check vitals, fundus height, etc... 10 minutes and I'm out the door and back to work. THE DAY OF... My water broke at home 2 weeks before my due date. Called Dr. Tashman around 8 pm and didn't get to triage till 10 but he was already in waiting for me. I was admitted for ruptured membrane at 3cm and as usual my labor progressed rapidly, before 3am I was complete. I didn't have a birth plan but had one request and that was to labor down for as long as I could so I didn't have to push for long. We waited 1.5 hours longer before I was on the stirrups. Dr. Tashman was patient and worked with me when I was too tired to push. He was also very accommodating toward hubby and made sure he didn't pass out in the middle of delivery. I have a really tiny frame and tiny babies, my daughter came in at 5.9lbs after 30 minutes of pushing. The best part of having a seasoned OB was I didn't get any lacerations and only stayed at the hospital for a couple of days. The last OB I had with my son tore me so bad even though he was only 4.9lbs. This time, I hardly had pain and was already driving and going places 5 days post partum. THE OFFICE... Office staff was awesome, I dealt mostly with Dannielle. They don't call prior to confirm your appointment since it's just her in the office so I missed a few appointments. They were able to reschedule me rather quickly so that wasn't an issue at all. I highly recommend Dr. Tashman and his staff. This is an old school practice with old school charting system, old school furniture and old school OB. If you're an old school kind of preggo mama like me, this practice is for you. read more

This review is long overdue, but I would like to take a moment to praise Dr. Tashman. This is from a father's point of view. My wife and I had our first blessing back in July 2017 and Dr. Tashman was awesome during the entire pregnancy. I found him after reviewing multiple doctors online with great reviews (this is very important to me) and we scheduled a meet. We met with a couple OBGYNs prior, but we had a sincerely good connection with Dr. Tashman. He's very personable, friendly, but most importantly, experienced and professional. I went with my wife to most appointments. I think I might've missed two overall. When it came to the actual delivery we did have a small scare, but Dr. Tashman's experience and calm demeanor made everything so much better. He planned and executed efficiently all while keeping his good attitude that put my wife at ease (as much as possible at least given the circumstances). If you're currently searching for a great doc, please, do yourself a favor and at least meet with Dr. Tashman. Bonus points for his office being at Fair Oaks Hospital. read more

I wasn't sure what to expect from this place as I had never visited a male gyno before. Since moving to this area, I knew that I would be coming back to the land of great healthcare (unlike Arizona *shudder*), and I am happy to say that my first experience has been a great one. Dr. Tashman is kind, quick, and efficient. He drew blood from me in seconds, moving like the wind for this standard test and he had me in and out of the office in under a half an hour. He's very funny and personable as well, keeping it light but also professional. I had to hear back about results and he called me personally after a few days and left a voicemail. I really appreciate the great service and will definitely be back! read more

What a GREAT DOCTOR! We have been looking for an obgyn to care for my wife during pregnancy. Dr. Tashman came recommended by one of the nurses we met at a clinic. What a blessing!!! Dr. Tashman is not only knowledgeable and experienced, but he also cares about his patients and makes sure he is there every step of the way. My wife had an early delivery due to a condition he diagnosed, she underwent a c-suction and I am so grateful we had Dr. Tashman to care for her. He came to the hospital every day sometimes twice a day to visit and check on her (before the delivery), he was always on top of things making sure everything is ok. During her surgery he was very comforting and reassuring as a matter of fact I don't know how we would have survived those stressful days if it wasn't for him. Dr. Tashman in our opinion is one in a million, if you are pregnant and looking for an experienced doctor who cares about you, returns calls and gives answers when you have concerns or doubts,this is the doctor for you. read more

My experience was very similar to what you can read about in Crisanda C's review (from 9/29/2016)! To the person who "wouldn't recommend Dr. Tashman to her worst enemy," you couldn't be more wrong. Dr. Tashman was a wonderful OB and delivered my son in November 2016. This was my first pregnancy and I was in good hands with Dr. Tashman. My son's delivery went SO smoothly - I couldn't have asked for it to go any better. My husband is also so grateful to Dr. Tashman for his excellent work and diligence that day :) I also want to give a shout out to Danielle in the office. She was always so cheerful every morning that I came in - it was always so nice to see a friendly face! read more

I am so grateful for this doctor. At 37 weeks pregnant I made the decision to seek prenatal care elsewhere because my concerns were not being respected at my previous physician's office. I called around and found it very difficult to find an OB that would take me in that late in my pregnancy. When I spoke to Danielle at Dr. Tashman's office she was very sweet, asked me a few questions about why I wanted a new doctor and told me she would have Dr. Tashman call me himself to discuss. I was shocked by that because normally physicians won't do that. He called me in less than ten minutes and talked to me. He was really kind, really direct and told me he would be happy to take me as a patient. I saw him the following week and I was beyond thrilled. I really felt like he advocates for his patients and listens to them, which was great for me because I felt like my previous physician just did not care. I expressed to him that my biggest concern was having another episiotomy because my previous experience was horrible. He assured me that he doesn't like to do those unless they're ABSOLUTELY necessary. I was at ease. He delivered my daughter a couple weeks later, bigger baby than my last, no episiotomy, no tearing (which meant the WORLD to me haha). I had her around 2pm and was up and showering unassisted later that night. Dr. Tashman is really kind and an excellent physician. Always makes me laugh. Great bedside manner. Thankful for him! read more

We had a great delivery experience with Dr Tashman. I had a vback done at fair oaks hospital for my second child. Throughout my pregnancy, Danielle and Dr. Tashman were very responsive and professional. It was very helpful that he had seen me for all my prenatal appointments and delivered our baby. For our first child, the hand off of care was very choppy and a lot of miscommunication, due to the fact that there were multiple providers throughout our delivery. I would definitely recommend Dr Tashman. read more

After suffering two previous losses, and one of them being a stillbirth, I was so very afraid of my next pregnancy. I really needed to find a doctor who cared about my well-being and paid extra attention to my care. Dr. Tashman was it. He would personally call me with my results and always listened to me, ensuring I felt ok, answering my million questions. Dr. T is a one-man practice and it is exactly what I needed. He has the experience and would call almost immediately whenever I freaked out or had a question about my pregnancy, symptoms, etc. I cannot recommend him enough and I am sad I didn't find him sooner as I felt he went above and beyond to care for me and my little one. He is the best. read more

Dr Tashman delivered three of my children, the last 12 years ago. What a wonderful doctor and person. For my second and third babies I had moved to NJ but chose to return to Virginia just so Dr Tashman could do their c sections. I just couldn't find anyone else local to me that I trusted in the same way. read more

I used to think he was a wonderful doctor until he put me on a pill that gave me horrible freak side effect. At the time I had just moved to North Carolina for school and so I called his office and he returned my call the next morning. I was trying to explain to him what was going on and he was extremely annoyed and while I understand our connection was bad, his behavior was absolutely appalling and inexcusable. He told me he didn't have time and he has other things to do and other patients to tend to and that Id have to deal with it or come into the office when he gets back from vacation in an extremely condescending way. I was absolutely shocked and never imagined that he would speak to a patient in the manner in which he did. I most definitely will not be back to his practice. read more

***UPDATE*** I hate to sound ageist, but I think this doc needs to retire. And, I don't say that flippantly. He's clearly lost touch with best practices. After my husband expressed to me his concerns about how he felt Tashman was a bit too laid-back during my delivery 2yrs ago, I now see the light. These are the reasons I've moved on to another doctor: 1) It took his office 1week to get back to me about whether my bloodwork (that he took in-office) was back. This was bloodwork I went to have to taken from him to verify if I was pregnant or not after I got a faint positive at home. I called his office more than a couple times over the course of 1week to ask why the results still weren't in; ultimately, he called me himself and said it was the lab's fault. When I logged into my lab's (LabCorp) online portal 2 days after having bloodwork in his office, it said date had not been written on the vials so they had to put the date it was received. That lack of attention to detail annoyed me but I let it go. He also overlooked & forgot that I have hypothyroid (which I've always been on medication for), & I had to call the office on my own the day after my appointment to remind them to check my thyroid level in the bloodwork (which his secretary, Danielle, who always sounds annoyed and short with me, begrudgingly did do). 2) During the same pregnancy confirmation appointment (when I was at 8 weeks), he took my blood but never asked me for urine or listened for heartbeat or asked if I had questions.The entire appointment, he yapped about his family. He never asked about my kid that he delivered -- come to think of it, he's never asked about her in a single appointment since I gave birth to her in 2015. Yet, he yaps about his daughter (who lives in Germany) & son & son's girlfriend for minutes on end. Before I knew it, the appointment was over and he was talking so much and rushed me to the point where I forgot to ask him about what I should do about getting a flu vaccine. I called back the day after this appointment not only to remind them about the hypothyroid as I mentioned above, but also to ask about the flu vaccine. Guess what ensued? 2 different calls from Danielle giving me the wrong answer first, and then a second call where she left a voicemail correcting info from Dr. Tashman himself regarding when it was safe for me to get it. Couldn't he have called me himself? Don't they hand out guidance/sheets to patients about this? Especially since it's flu season. I guess I was particularly annoyed about this because the one thing I did get to tell him during this appointment, after he took my blood, was that I had been feeling like absolute crud for a month and I think I got the flu from my daughter who had recently started daycare...he flippantly said, "We gotta work on why you're feeling so cruddy" and then went back to talking about other things...I thought he'd bring it up again or address this at the end of the appointment with tips or recommendations or perhaps even some sort of guidance on what to buy over-the-counter, but he didn't. 3) Getting medical records from his office to my new doc's office has been a nightmare. It's been 2 weeks exactly and my new doc doesn't have my records from him. When the new doc called Tashman, they got the answering service for him....the answering service said they received the records request but that office staff wouldn't fulfill it because he was out of town for the week (btw, I've noticed that he is in office only like 3 days/week & appt availability, while not hugely difficult, lately has been a pain because it seems he's not in office much). 4) Today, the straw that broke the camel's back was that the doc left me a voicemail saying he just got back to office today and saw a fax request for my records request and that, while that was all fine and all, he was concerned because he'd heard I'd had some spotting or bleeding, and he needed me to call him back. This is so weird because that is simply FALSE -- fortunately, I am not experiencing spotting or bleeding at this point in my pregnancy!!! Sounds like a ploy to get me to call the office back & keep me as a patient. Ladies, do yourself a favor and find a doc who doesn't do the things I said above. Why? Because this silly stress is the last thing you need when you're pregnant or not well. ***Original*** Simply put: He's old school and wonderful. If you're one of those new-age, hipster-types, he might not be for you. But, for me [I'm surrounded by physicians - dad, husband, brother, relatives, & friends] - he was just what I needed. He delivered my little one a few days after Thanksgiving, and I truly feel like the delivery wouldn't have been what it was were he not my physician. He's honest, real, straight business, and most importantly highly-knowledgeable AND experienced. He made me feel comfortable and always answered any questions I had - no matter how big or small. Trust me, he's worth it. read more

I am beyond shocked that Doctor Tashman has not been reviewed on Yelp before. Well, I will start by stating that Dr. Tashman OB/GYN is WONDERFUL. After looking for an exceptional doctor to deliver my baby, I finally came across the one man show, Dr. Tashman. He is an old school doctor that works alone and has a receptionist that has been working with him for many years. His receptionist is Jenny and she also is just fabulous. I use the words "old school' because while other offices have all of the fancy, high tech equipment in office, Dr. Tashman is pretty simple. At first I wondered about that because my old practice had the works. I went from a practice that had over 5 doctors and several assistants and receptionists, huge ultrasound machines and tv's mounted on the walls, to Dr. Tashman's small, simple and cozy practice. One might find this to be a down grade but not in any way is it that. After my first visit with Dr. Tashman, I realized that I didn't need all the fancy stuff. What I needed was a doctor that knew his stuff and had extensive experience. The person my baby and I needed was Dr. Tashman. At my old practice, even with all the doctors there, I had a wait time of 10-20 minutes, sometimes more. At Dr. Tashman's office the longest I've waited was 8 minutes. He strives himself of being on time. People wonder how he does it all but he does it and he is very efficient at running his practice and dellvering babies. Tashman delivers at Fair Oaks hospital and has his office on the hospital grounds. It's just perfect. No need to wonder which doctor in a large practice will deliver your baby and no need to see more than just the doctor of your choice. It's also good to know he has many years of experience and he has a great reputation with the hospital and staff. Switching to Dr. Tashman was the best decision I could've made. When my husband and I are in his office, I feel at ease knowing that I am in good hands and I feel like family. Tashman and my husband share life stories and just laugh as if they've been friends for years. He is patient, caring, professional, happy, knowledgeable and I can continue but thats to name a few. I am sticking with Dr. Tashman and I HIGHLY recommend any woman seeking great care, to go see Dr. Tashman. You can schedule an appointment just to meet him which is something many offices don't allow. You surely will not regret it. Thank you Dr. Tashman and Jenny for all that you do. read more

Doctor Tashman is currently my Obgyn and I absolutely love him! I was originally with another Obgyn group but as soon as I got pregnant I wanted to look into possible other options and I am SO glad I did. This is my first pregnancy and I could not have asked for a better experience. Being that HIS practice, you get his full attention at every appointment. He takes your blood work and personally calls with all the rests after any test. Could not be happier. read more

Dr. Tashman is fantastic! He is so caring and gentle, not to mention very knowledgeable. He was there day or night to answer any questions I had, and I had many as a first time mom. He even called me back personally!!!! I felt safe and secure my whole pregnancy. I had a complicated c section delivery and he kept me very calm and delivered my baby flawlessly with very minimal scarring. I love him and would reccomend him to anyone having a baby! read more

I was recommended to Dr Tashman by 5 of my friends who had gone to him since they were in high school. He had delivered all of their children, some with very difficult pregnancies and labors. I began to see dr tashman the year that my husband and I were going to begin trying. He sat down with me in his office and discussed the best methods to help get pregnant, etc. When I did get pregnant he met with me and my husband to give us a medical overview and answer all of our questions. I had a fairly easy pregnancy so appointments were very quick. At times i would almost feel rushed but then again he is servicing a lot of patients. He did always answer my questions and you can actually call the office and talk him which I did on several occasions. Good luck doing that in another practice! He even helped me with a billing issue! Where dr tash shines is in the delivery room. I was induced and progressed very slowly. He was checking in on me every hour and i swear he is the only reason I didnt have a csection after pushing for two hours! Bottom line is you wont find any dr like him. If you want personal attention and the very best care for you and your baby-you are in the best hands! Love him! read more

Dr. Tash is the best! I have struggled for years to find a good OBGYN that I was comfortable with and he is definitely it. He is kind, understanding and above all patient. We have had some fertility issues, nothing major in the grand scheme of things, but he went out of his way to help us and reassure us there is a light at the end of the tunnel. He is very direct and efficient, but there is a deep level of sensitivity that I really appreciate - and, honestly, I never once had that with a female doctor. I could not be more grateful to have found him, I am only sorry it took me so many wasted years. We are finally pregnant and I know this is in great part to his help and understanding. I highly recommend him! read more

If I could give zero stars, I would! Dr. Tashman is very rude. We came to get a second opinion about my moms condition. We brought all the documents we had, explained current situation and when we eventually said my mom has fibroids he got so pissed and mad! Because apparently (!) it wasn't in the print outs we brought. We are not doctors and are not familiar with med terminology. We came to get an opinion and brought everything we have! And he is sitting there and telling us that we are wasting his time because we started an appointment with the wrong end and should have told him about fibroids at first place. He said his majesty is loosing business and in 20 minutes he dedicated to us, he could see 4 other patients! So 5 minutes per patient?! Really?! He just exploded all of a sudden! Just because we didn't mentioned the fibroids in the beginning of appointment. But the reason appointment was fibroids, so we did mention it even before the meeting. Unbelievably rude guy! I haven't seen anything like that in my life! Safe your time and money! Have a doctor who would spend with you a normal amount of time for your money read more

Dr. Tashman helped me diagnose my infertility issues and which led to treatment that allowed me to have my children. He is amazingly knowledgeable and provides very personal care and he is an amazing c-section surgeon. He listened to me when I felt like something was wrong towards the end of my pregnancy and if hadn't taken me seriously my first child would have either not survived or had serious life long complications. They don't get any better than Tash! read more

Dr. Hunter Tashman was the first gynecologist I have ever seen and will be the only I ever plan to. I have been going to him for over 15 years. My mom and sisters are patients of him as well, and I speak for them too when I say that him and his staff have been nothing short of amazing. He is the most caring and compassionate doctor I have ever seen. He goes above and beyond by calling personally to follow up after appointments, which is rare nowadays. Whenever I have a question, he is always happy to help, calm, accessible, and understanding. He truly cares about each of his patients. I don't just consider Dr. Tashman as my doctor, but as an extension of our family. read more

I was referred to Dr. Tashman by a friend who delivered all four of her children with him. He is knowledgeable, kind, patient and wants what is best for the mom and baby and will take the time to answer all questions when needed. He takes vitals, draws blood, listens for the fetal heartbeat all himself. I will deliver any future children with him. His staff is also wonderful. I dealt mostly with Danielle and she always remembered my name over the phone or in person and she always made my son feel welcome (he's 3). It feels like you're a part of a family and not just a patient. read more

Dr Tashman has been my ob/gyn for 15 years. He is one of the most caring doctors I've ever met. He has always been dedicated to me as a patient and has always given me the time and attention I needed. Through gyn issues and also pregnancy and delivery. He was a rock for me during my pregnancy and never faltered to help me with questions or anxiety during the process. He also made brilliant decisions during my delivery that may have saved my child's life. I truly cannot recommend him highly enough. read more

Where do I begin...Dr Tashman was as good as it gets! This review is coming from the husband/male perspective. At 1st I was a little skeptical because our 1st meeting he didn't seem to talk too much and was just straight to the point very laid back. And as a 1st time expecting father I had a lot of questions and anxiety so I was a little taken back by the laid back mood. BUT I was soo wrong....Dr Tashman is a VERY hard worker and is the best at what he does. He actually delivered multiple babies on the morning of that visit and probably got zero sleep, which is why he was probably straight to the point. He is the type of Doctor that doesn't mess around and does not want to waste your time with useless jargon and talking. He respects your time and only ask that you respect his as well. Not much to ask when you consider just how many babies he delivers on a day to day basis...This isn't to say that he isn't a caring loving person as well. There were so many times that he just comforted us and talked to us as if he was our parent which really put us at ease. During the actual delivery labor process he was so calm and relaxed he talked both of us through the entire process and he he was probably 99% correct with all of his reads/calls. When he says the baby should be coming in 40 mins the baby is coming in 40 mins and when he says the baby will be crowning in about 2 more pushes the baby really did crown in 2 more pushes haha...There's probably nothing that he hasn't seen before and so it's really comforting knowing that he really has everything under control. Also one thing to note he never pushed anything on us and always worked with us making us feel comfortable, for instance, I heard many doctors will "estimate" that your baby maybe too big so you need to get a c section...this is something that you as a family should really think about and don't let your doctor or hospital fearfully force you into a c section. Dr Tashman has the highest rate of normal birth he does not and really prefers not to do c section unless it is medically required...so just knowing that was a great peace of mind. I highly recommend Dr Tashman and the only concern I have is that he will retire before we give birth to our next few children ;( although he did reassure us that it will be a while before then but who knows? read more

Doctor Tashman was the best thing that could have happened to me during my first pregnancy. He is wonderful, caring, & most importantly always there when you need him. His staff is also wonderful I always felt at ease during all my appointments & coming in when I felt something might be wrong was easy & they always made the time to answer even the smallest question. Doctor Tashman unlike these big OBGYN practices he takes the time to truly get to know his patients & the best part is you don't have to worry whether or not the doctor you've been seeing will be on call when you do go into labor you know for sure that he will be there with you so that's one less worry before delivery. When it come to my labor & delivery he was there the entire time & my labor was about 24 hours he never once pressured me to have a c-section because he knew that I was determined not to have one and instead of pressing me he was encouraging & tried everything possible to avoid a c-section. But unfortunately my baby just did not want to come naturally & when finally there was nothing left to do he was quick in prepping everything to safely deliver my little one through c-section. But I'm thankful that even though I had a csection that he was the one that did it. When my baby was born he still stick around until I come around a few hours later of the anesthesia to check on me. He did a wonderful job a nurse come in to check on my incision & was surprised & asked who my doctor was because she had never seen such " a Beautiful c-section " and I must admit it healed up great! Doctor Tashman is wonderful and I would recommend him to anyone!! If you are looking for an amazing doctor who truly cares about his patients he is the doctor to see. read more

I can't enough about how great Dr. Tashman is. I wanted the attention of a solo practice and am so glad I found it with this one to deliver my baby in May. He takes all the time necessary to make you feel comfortable about what is happening during your pregnancy, returns calls promptly (like less than 15 minutes) and getting an appt is pretty easy. The day of my delivery, like most women delivering for the first time, i was incredibly nervous. Dr. Tashman kept checking on me throughout the day and kept me well informed of my progress. When it came time to start pushing, in the room was my husband, the nurse and Dr. Tashman. He was calm and encouraging and as my daughter was being born, he told me to look down to see her and it was the most amazing moment of my life. I'm so grateful he brought me back to reality for that wonderful moment. Again, I can't say enough about how great the entire experience was. His assistant Jenny is great and always very helpful whether in person or on the phone. Both she and Dr. Tashman make their patients feel like family! read more

Dr Tashman is the best ! I became pregnant with my first baby and was seeing another dr because of insurance, I had to switch insurance 7 months into my pregnancy. I found dr Tashman and once I first met him I felt so at ease like he was with me through this whole pregnancy! He just pick up where the other dr left off like it was nothing! After a few sonograms he determined that this baby boy wasn't going to be your every ordinary child he was going to be a big one! He was guess on sizes say about 10lbs and I just couldn't believe it. But my boy took a turn and became breached so he told me because of the size and that he's breached we would have to do a planed c-section! I was nervous but he walked me through the whole thing and was there the whole time! The surgery went fantastic and my son came out at 10 lbs 15 oz !! Dr Tashman was surprised a little woman like me had a baby like that! Now I'm healed happy as ever my baby is healthy my incision looks amazing and is an easy hide. And on too of that he did a beautiful circumcision on my son. I couldn't be happier with the results dr Tashman is the best. I would recommend him 100% thanks dr Tashman and staff you guys are the best!!!!! read more

Dr.Tashman has been my doctor for 4 years now and I love him! He delivered my baby girl 2 years ago. I went through a lot with this pregnancy but I'm so glad I found a doctor that was very experienced and so knowledgeable. Even though it was a little bit of a harder pregnancy I think it could have been much worse if I didn't have such a great doctor. He always took a lot of time with me at all of my appointments even when I wasn't pregnant anymore. He always made sure he answered all of my questions and addressed any concerns I had at every appointment. I always felt very welcomed by his great staff as well. Danielle and Dr.Tashman are the best team! Danielle was very friendly and welcoming every single time which may seem a to be a simple thing but is very hard to find now days. read more

Way too old for his job. He can't even hold a syringe properly. His hands were so shaky that he dropped a vial. Can imagine how he would deliver. I wouldn't recommend him even to my worst enemy. read more

I usually never feel compelled to write reviews but with the high standard of care I have received from Dr. Tashman it almost seems wrong not to write one! I am currently 34 weeks pregnant with my 4th child and have experienced several ob/gyn practices, a midwife group, and ultimately, Dr. Tashman, the last of the true "solo practitioners". With Dr. Tashman you see the same doctor and when you call with a problem he actually picks up the phone and talks to you instead of making you leave a message for a nurse. He is the type of doctor that will run back to the office from the hospital to get a lab report on his fax if he knows you are concerned and can't wait. He addresses all of my concerns and is very reassuring and will always call you back (and I definitely have moments where I get neurotic about things!). I suffered two missed miscarriages prior to this pregnancy (both resulting in a D&C which Dr. Tashman performed) and he was able to get the OR for me within hours, since I did not want to wait it out, and he even called me from home in the late evening to check on me. He was also proactive in taking steps to make sure we did everything possible to ensure this current pregnancy wouldn't fail, reassuring me every step of the way. He manages to calm me yet also make me feel secure that I am in capable hands should something go wrong. Often some of the most capable doctors have the worst bedside manner, not so with Dr. Tashman. I find myself laughing at most of my visits. For me, Dr. Tashman is the happy medium, between the personal care and support of a midwife group and the medical expertise of an ob/gyn practice. I did initially have some concerns about going with a solo practitioner and they have all been put to rest. I have yet to have an appt cancelled and never wait more than a few minutes! Somehow Dr. Tashman manages to juggle it all. His two receptionists are wonderful and very responsive and know who you are when you call. I also prefer the fact that he does his own blood draws and blood pressure readings. It keeps him in touch with his patients. He does not do sonograms in the office which is definitely another perk and not a negative as I initially thought. Sonograms can pick up a multitude of abnormalities. I, personally, would rather have each one done at a radiology group with state-of-the-art machines and the trained eye of a radiologist and not just the ultrasound technician. Two sets of eyes looking at things is always better than one especially in a field that is part art, part science. I can't tell you how happy I am that I finally found the right care for me and my baby. It shouldn't be this difficult yet it is and Dr. Tashman is truly one of a kind! One last comment: at some of my visits I have met women a good 15-20 years older than I am who have been going to him for over 20 years, one is even a close friend of mine. That speaks volumes! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Tashman. He delivered both of my babies and I had very difficult pregnancies. I went into preterm labor with both children at 29 weeks and did 8 weeks of strict bedrest. Both of my children made it to 37 weeks (full term) and that is due to the care, advice, and guidance of Dr. Tashman. I would highly recommend him for anyone with history of difficult pregnancies. He provided me with the ultimate care during a very difficult time... twice. And I cannot express how amazing he was in the delivery room. My first delivery was extremely quick, and I didn't receive the epidural, as planned. Dr. Tashman was calm and helped coach me through the entire thing. My second delivery was very quick, but I got the epidural and again Dr. Tashman was amazing. My second baby spent 6 days in the NICU (for minor issues) and he visited me every single day. You just don't meet doctors with the care, professionalism, and experience of Dr Tashman. read more

Dr. Tashman is an amazing doctor with a wonderful disposition and bedside manor. He delivered me as a baby and 24 years later delivered my daughter. I would recommend him highly. However, the office staff is seriously lacking in the customer service department, which is the only reason I give 4 stars. I would give the office staff 0 stars. Considering that this is a place where pregnant, emotional women frequent, you'd think they would be a bit more understanding and friendly. As a single mother, I can tell you that it was extremely upsetting to be asked EVERY appointment if my husband would be coming (by the EXACT same receptionist each time) Read my chart. I do not have a husband. Maybe it's a sensitive subject. Also, when you weigh a pregnant women, don't just automatically add 10 pounds because "that's how much you gained from the last few times". I will still go here despite the office staff, but next time I won't be keeping my comments about the poor customer service to myself. read more

My husband and I were pregnant with our first child. We started going to a practice with eight doctors. The idea is that you see each doctor and pick which one you would prefer for the majority of your visits. Two major problems with this, for us, was the lack of personal attention and no matter who you scheduled to deliver you there was a large chance you were going to get someone else. We had great experiences with one of the doctors and a horrible experience otherwise. So we switched approximately half way through our pregnancy. Dr. Tashman was the number one referral from another doctor. We called his office, set the appointment and boom! From the moment we met him, we fell in love. It is rare, nowadays, to find a solo practice ObGyn (might I say one million times better). He sat us down and spoke to us as people, not numbers on his list. It was personal and enjoyable. He got to know us and always made us feel welcome. There was not a moment I hesitated to call and ask him about anything (literally, he has his home phone attached to his work line, in case of emergencies); any fear I had, any false alarm (and we definitely had a few).. Anything. He made himself accessible one hundred percent of the time. Aside from all of that, most importantly, he knows what he is doing. He has been in this practice for a long time and does not sugar coat anything. He is tactful with his delivery of information yet comfortingly descriptive and upfront. I never felt alone or scared that something would go wrong. Security is huge during a pregnancy. I highly HIGHLY recommend him to anyone and everyone. I would consider myself very discerning, when it comes to my doctors. I want someone who gets to know me, takes the time to precisely and accurately assess and proves they know what they are doing. I also understand when things happen because, let's be real, things happen. As human as he is, I cannot recall a mistake throughout our entire pregnancy and up into our delivery. I always entered his office beaming from ear to ear with a smile, excited to see him and left even happier. He always included my husband and treated us as a unit, which was comforting for both my husband and I. Dr. Tashman delivers out of Fair Oaks Hospital, which is in the same string of buildings as his office (very convenient). Through all of our false alarms and for the final day, the staff was more than accommodating. The staff was equally as personable and knowledgeable as Dr. Tashman. We had fun with them, even during the most painful contractions. Step by step they were there by my side, until we were discharged. He is now my regular Ob and will most definitely be the doctor I use for the rest of my pregnancies. I could easily write a book on how wonderful our experience was, with him. Thank you Dr. Tashamn, you are amazing! read more
