I'm sure I've forgotten a few others but every single person that is working in that office is supportive, kind, empathetic, and understands that they are part of someone else's integral story. Each time I visited the office, there was meditation music playing and it was warm and cozy, plus there were beverages offered as well as a smile. From heartwarming quotes, to funny anecdotes on a whiteboard, to dim-lit exam rooms to ease anxiety and light meditation music to soothe nerves, to painless blood tests and fun and sweet band-aids, attention to detail is *chef's kiss* It's like being nervous for a high-school exam but once you arrive, you know you have support and you can leave feeling like you aced it. I can't say enough how warm and inviting and knowledgeable each person is that works there. Meeting the doctor and nurse and receiving a warm greeting and hug was the cherry on top. It's not clinical or cold (in comparison to the Farmington location - yikes). Farmington feels icy and stark, plus - disorganized and like we are cattle with a number. Truly - if I never had to visit Farmington CARS, that would be great. The Hartford location is the exact opposite. I'm grateful that this journey had so many friendly faces. Love CARS - Hartford!!

I am not paying for an exam for a UTI. Most doctors don't require an exam and Insurance Co. don't require one either. It's just more money in their pocket. So, i was scheduled with Dr. Stephen Fishman whom I had never gone to in the past 45 years of being a patient. He refused to tell me if I had a UTI (I knew that I had a UTI due to the fact that I took a home test that was positive). He stated that you can not determine if its a UTI until you get the lab results. This was new to me. He rolled the stool he was sitting on and proceeded to come close to me and proceeded to poke my lower abdomen with his fingers. I was shocked as to what he was doing and moved back quickly. Asked him what he was doing. He stated that he was trying to help me. (don't know how he was helping me by poking me) Then asked if it hurt. Note: I was standing in the room fully clothed holding my coat on my arm while he was trying to poke me. After that he then said he would order an antibiotic and left the room. I couldn't get out of the office fast enough. He lied, was very obnoxious, nasty and creepy. Never have I meet anyone as despicable as him. I assume his bizarre and inappropriate behavior was due to the fact that I refused to have an exam. I have been a patient of Woodland Women's Health for over 45 years. During these years I have never had any issues with any doctors or employees. Prior to this incident I would have given them a 5 star rating.

As a thyroid cancer survivor, and an amatuer cometitive athlete dealing with cardio arythmia, he was able to advise questions and approaches that involved my endocrinologist and my exercise regimens as a proactive surveillance program when I first saw him -- this program held the frequency of my arrhythmias at bay for 2 years. When the intensity and durations of the cardio events returned he was able to talk me through the risks and benefits of proactive surveillance, drugs and ablation, giving me the assurance and education to make a decision that was right for me. Now, 8 weeks post ablation, his skill seems to have given me a "cure" to the condition! I can not recommend him more highly!

Doctor is friendly enough but fails to give concrete advice, does not make changes to my meds even though being diabetic and having many low sugars in the middle of the night.

He believes in getting to root cause as opposed to just treating symptom - but is willing to do both to ensure the comfort of his patients. I think he is an outstanding doctor!

Then, unless you have been regularly appearing at the Doctor's office, you are not recognized when you ask for appointment because the Doctor's system apparently forgets you in three years' time. If after the system has forgotten you because you have not needed a Doctor in three years, you are then treated as a "new patient" and data-mined all over again.
