She was so welcoming and made me feel so comfortable (well, as comfortable as one can feel in a gyn appt!) I felt as if I had known her for years and it was only my first appointment. She was very easy going and not pushy at all (like some gyns can be). I have revisited the office this year and she has been just as great. Wait time in the office both times has been under 10 minutes and the first time was only so I could fill out paper work! The visit is quick and I was able to go on my lunch break and get right back to work with time to spare. Staff at the front desk were all friendly and nurses were great too! I hope others are having as great an experience as I have. I look forward to staying with this office for years to come.

I'm deeply frustrated with this clinic and I'm so glad I switched. First off, they told me that…read morethey don't take my insurance and I had to pay out of pocket. That's fine, not everyone is in network, but the way they said it made me think that I have zero fertility coverage, not just that they specifically aren't covered (the clinic I switched to DOES accept my insurance). I should have checked with my insurance but they definitely should have been more clear. Anyway, so every time I had an appointment I checked out at the front desk and asked what we owe. My intention was to pay out of pocket as we went, every single time. Yet after my first and only failed IUI, we were told we had a surprise $700 bill. I repeatedly asked to speak with the finance team that never called me back. Also, after the failed IUI, I didn't get a SINGLE phone call or message in the portal indicating sympathy. Nothing whatsoever, just something to the effect of "let us know when you want to come in again". We pay thousands of dollars out of pocket and you can't leave one voicemail saying we're so sorry this didn't work? Nothing?! And instead just "hey you owe us another $700" I'll leave a single star because their front desk person seemed nice.

Regardless of what they tell you you will owe or what is covered by insurance, do not believe them. Get absolutely everything pre approved in writing down to individual tests and visits even when they tell you they are covered because they will fall back on a general waiver they force you to sign at the beginning. They take no responsibility in providing accurate cost estimates and will absolutely blame you for their lies. We were told that we would have no costs for a given cycle and even with insurance coverage for the procedure, they claimed that we should have known that they were not contracted by the insurance provider for the specific treatment. When we asked for the contract details, which would have been the only way to know this in advance and determine that their guidance was wrong, they refused and said it was private. So their position is that even if they tell us something wrong and provide a service they are not contracted to provide, it is on us to know the truth they refuse to disclose and because we signed a waiver, they can charge us anything they want. Do not go to this clinic. If you do, don't trust any numbers they say or quote. And get ready for the most irresponsible and unprofessional example of exploiting patients.

Really at a loss of words to describe my experience at this place today, but I left in tears and…read morefelt compelled to write a review so that others are aware. I went to this practice today for a follow up procedure from a previous doctor. I was scheduled with Dr. Sonya Lee. I arrived, checked in, and filled out paperwork, then was taken back to undress and wait for the doctor to come in. When she arrived, my first impression was certainly not a warm and fuzzy one. She was unfriendly, abrupt, and even seemed annoyed or inconvenienced when I was explaining my medical history and current concerns. It was uncomfortable, but I figured not everyone is naturally welcoming or comforting. It was what ensued during and after my in office procedure that assured me this was much worse than poor bedside manor. As we began my procedure, I mentioned to Dr. Lee that I wasn't good with GYN "stuff" as in very sensitive to pain and/or discomfort in that area. This was just a heads up in hopes that she would have some empathy and maybe take things a little slower or with extra care, and her response was "well yea this isn't fun for me either". Great. So my sense of her being annoyed or inconvenienced at the beginning of my appointment was confirmed. She proceeded on with the procedure which was just flat out rough and fast - beyond unpleasant. I asked her at some point if it was almost done and she said it would be. The last few seconds were the worst, it was as if she was purposely being erratic! Zero concern or consideration for me, my body, or my sensitivities. Once she was done, I mentioned that the procedure was done a little fast and roughly. She was clearly offended and said she didn't know what to tell me and wasn't sure how they do it at other places, but that's how they do it at GSP. Then she says "well I guess I'll text you with the results". Her attitude about it was horrible, dismissive, and cold. I'm sitting there half clothed and the person who's care I'm in has treated me like trash. I couldn't believe what I was experiencing. I expressed to her that I was a little uncomfortable at that point and her response was "yea me too". She then proceeded to go to the computer to take notes while I was sitting there in a very vulnerable position, unable to get up or move. I asked her if I could have please have the room to get dressed and she got up, walked out, and slammed the door behind her. As soon as that door shut I was in tears. I could not believe the treatment that I had just received. I have never in my life experienced something like this. Sure, a medical degree is great for practicing medicine, but so is care, empathy, compassion, a good bedside manor, and a general respect and consideration for others - things Dr. Lee is clearly severely lacking. I will never step foot into the offices of Gynecology Specialists of Philadelphia again and I urge others to consider my situation before they do. There are so many wonderful doctors out there, terrible experiences like mine should just never have to happen. Glad I know now! Looking forward to seeing a new doctor in the future. **Update** Ironically, but not surprisingly, recently received this letter in the mail from GSP stating that I am being let go as a patient for being "rude and disrespectful to the staff." Hard to do anything but laugh at this. First, for the fact that this is what I get in response to leaving a completely honest review of a horrid experience I had - no apology or accountability from this doctor, of course - which is right in line with my experience. And secondly, the fact that they ever thought I was stepping foot back in that office again! Ha. No thanks, a thousand times. I was nothing but pleasant with everyone in that office, including Dr. Lee who was in fact, extremely rude and unprofessional to me. God, they are worse off than I initially thought! Beware.

For a third time she asks me all the same questions without consulting my paperwork. Why did I even bother filling it out? She's all ready to remove my IUD without seeming to have considered that I need a new form of birth control. I have to stop her and ask her what I'm going to use and she immediately writes me a prescription for something I used 5 years ago without actually asking me what I want. Then I have to spend a million hours on the phone with my insurance bc she didn't stop to check whether the kind she prescribed was covered. It was overall kind of a nightmare.

I once waited for an hour just for a vaccination appointment with a medical assistant. I had an IUD appointment scheduled, they called 90 minutes before the appointment and cancelled it, just rescheduled it without asking if the new date/time was acceptable or fit my schedule. It wasn't. They then told me I'd have to wait another 4-6 weeks for a new appointment. They called after 9 am to cancel an 11 am appointment, so I had already used a sick day from work, etc. There was no apology, no nothing Just "this is the next soonest we can get you in" weeks later. Most of the doctors here just push birth control or other meds, without getting to the bottom of what is causing an issue. Did the midwives safely deliver my daughter and save my life when I had preeclampsia? Yes. Is Dr. Ewing a great provider to see if you are in perimenopause or menopause? Yes. Otherwise, absolutely, unequivocally, do not waste your time here. Because you will waste plenty of time and be incredibly frustrated. Edited: This is related specifically to the practice at 800 Walnut, 12th floor.

Due to impossibility scheduling, I landed on this location to not delay my annual by months. Scheduling - inconvenient. They have the MyChartJefferson, but I would go in every single morning around 7 am and click every single day that is available on the calendar, and every single day it was unavailable. I played that game for a month. Finally I messaged them on MyChart and they got me scheduled, but each year scheduling seems to be difficult. My appointment keeps getting pushed back 2 months + past my annual, but it is what it is - American Healthcare. Dr. Lackritz is great, the best GYN I've had in a while and why I continue to return to see her. I had a relatively smooth experience at this location. When you enter on the ground floor they check you in, and give you a paper and direct you downstairs. I arrived 15 minutes prior to my appointment, and was seen appx 15 minutes after my appointment time, annoying but relatively typical of healthcare in the states. Fingers crossed for a better scheduling experience next year, but we shall see!

After 10 years of seeing doctors who don't see or hear me, it was well worth the wait to feel so confident that someone was listening. And she listened, and then she helped. I've been back for a few visits and a procedure since and the care just keeps getting better- the folks in the office are so very friendly and kind while you wait, and everyone along the journey from waiting room to exam room treated me like they know me and care about my wellbeing. Dr. Beausang specifically has such an excellent bedside manner, always so attentive and really listening to what I'm saying and needing. She's given me a renewed hope and confidence that there are doctors out there who are willing to hear a patients self-advocacy and collaborate on the quality care they need, and who show up for their patients when they're in need. I would give the practice 5/5, 10/10, 100%, and am happy to wait a little bit longer if it means getting real care!

IUD insertion experience, no insurance: I had a flawless experience from start to finish. First, there were two volunteers in front of the door who ushered me inside. A protester was outside and one of the volunteers put her arms around me and swept me inside so kindly and quickly to avoid him. The service at the desk was excellent -- I did not need to provide any paperwork to prove my income or household size -- I simply wrote down my monthly income and living expenses on a piece of paper and passed it back to the employee with no questions asked. I paid without insurance and personally qualified for about 90% off the standard charge. The office, bathroom, waiting room, and examination rooms were all very clean, bright, and pleasant. I spent no time at all in the waiting room -- I was called to be seen as soon as I collected my urine sample. The bathroom was a large, single gender-neutral bathroom and I was able to put my urine sample in a box right there in the bathroom. The nurse that inserted my IUD was wonderful, kind, and comforting. She gave me all the information I needed and answered all of my questions. She talked me through everything that would happen during the procedure ahead of time and again as each step was happening. She also showed me all of the tools she used. The insertion took less than 10 minutes and was 99% pain-free (briefly felt like period cramps.) I was given ibuprofen and cervical numbing at no extra charge. I was given privacy and was able to leave the room at my leisure once it was over -- I was invited to take my time to stay and rest if needed. I was given a water bottle and pads at no cost. I did not have to check out when I left. The volunteers at the door greeted me on my way out, and once again shielded me from the protesters. A woman walked with me all the way to the end of the block. (I gave her a hug -- she was an angel.) I was blown away by how easy my experience was and how kind the employees and volunteers were.
