This update is long overdue! In addition to delivering my first son, Kathy also held my hand though…read morethe birth of my second son. I guess you can say that I am a 'repeat customer!' I highly recommend this incredible practitioner and human being. With Kathy's guidance and expertise, I was able to have the VBAC I was seeking. She advocated for me consistently and coordinated with everyone at the birth. Kathy has a quiet authority respected by the hospital staff, a firmness that always felt compassionate and empowering to me. When she said 'push,' I trusted her. Kathy communicated with my Doulas consistently for the the first phase of my labor, for many hours throughout the night, before I ever set foot in the hospital. She fielded their questions and guided us into that sweet spot between not staying at home too late and not getting to the hospital too early. We arrived at the perfect time, thanks to her! Thank you, Kathy, for safely delivering both of my children, and for being such an awesome midwife!

Kathy is truly, truly, truly an angel in the women's world of health care. Her bedside manners are…read moreunparalleled to any other services that I have come across. She took the time to answer my questions and was empathic to my concerns when I told her I had a previous miscarriage. I was in Florida for work and she was able to see me next day. The office is small, but it only means a higher quality of service. Not only did Kathy run all the necessary tests and answer all my questions, she followed up with me on all updates via text. She is amazing. Seriously, if I can have her in nyc - she would put a shame to all other establishment.

Doctor Riley is outstanding, and if I didn't like her I would look for another physician. The…read moresupport staff leaves a lot to be desired. I had what I thought was my two year checkup because I was notified by OBGYN via text telling me it was time to make my routine appointment. When I called to make the appointment, I was told that it was too early to book, and that I should call back in two months. When I called two months later I was given an appointment for two weeks later. On the same day, I called and left a message for Dr Riley's PA to renew my script for HRT cream and I included the script # along with the pharmacy phone number. Since my prescription had no refills left, and my HRT cream container had broken, I did not expect an issue refilling the script before my appointment in two weeks time. Doctor Riley's PA called about the HRT cream informing me that Doctor Riley would not renew my prescription until she saw me first. When i explained that my appointment was not for two more weeks and that I was concerned about the side affects I would have in not applying the cream daily as prescribed, the assistant said that Doctor Riley will not renew the script until I was seen. She said that the HRT cream that I was using was never prescribed to me by Doctor Riley. I told her that I didn't call in the prescription. She' was, in my opinion, very unpleasant and was clearly not wanting to be bothered with trying to help straighten out the mess. After all of this. I received a bill for The office visit. As a Medicare patient you are entitled to free wellness visits every two years, so I've never had to pay and did not expect to get a bill. However, I did receive a bill for the visit. I called the billing department and was told that because I made the appointment before the two years that Medicare would cover, Medicare denied the claim. I told the billing department that I made the appointment based on their notification they sent to me. Her reply was that it was my responsibility to know when the two years had passed before making my appointment. I said I received notification from you to make the appointment twice. My problem is that I was out of script refills and I couldn't speak with the Doctor to get the refill. Now I'm responsible for a bill that I would not have if it were not for mistakes made by the staff of OBGYN of the Palm Beaches. When I asked the PA to check with the doctor again, her answer was no, it was confirmed by doctor Riley not to renew till seen. . She said Doctor Riley had never given me that script and would not renew until I was seen. I said I'm not crazy, I did not call the pharmacy and call in my own prescription. She said they had no record of the prescription that I was using and refused the refill. The same day, I went to Gardens pharmacy and had them fix the cream HRT container that I dropped so that I could at least have a few more days of the cream before my appointment. While I was at the pharmacy, I asked the pharmacist the date and the name of the Doctor that called in the script for me and she said it was Doctor Riley's office.

If you need a doctor after 4:00 they are not available. It doesn't matter what the reason is. If…read morethey forgot to call in a prescription or if they didn't answer a question for you, you are sent to the ER or urgent care.

Dr. Fishman is just absolutely extraordinary and it is difficult to find the words to express how…read morepleased I am with him! Every visit has been an opportunity that Dr. Fishman took to answer all questions, inform me adequately of critical information, encourage/ reassure and uplift me, and he is a brilliant surgeon! Dr. Fishman is so genuine and kind- he is just the best doctor anyone could hope for and he exceeds all of my expectations!! Dr. Fisherman is also a very effective communicator and ensures that he relays the most poignant information that the patient is going to need. Dr. De Leo is also superb and phenomenal. I will never ever forget her kindness as she truly went above and beyond and out of her way to help me in the hospital!! It is obvious that Dr. Fishman truly loves his patients and loves what he does- Dr De Leo too! Please ensure they they receive a bonus, a raise or some sort of commendation for the care they provide at such a critical time in womens' lives. Please know that you really have a gold mine in these unparalleled physicians!! I write this with tears in my eyes as I am beyond grateful!! I will never in my life forget Dr. Fishman and Dr. De Leo as well. Now regarding the office: the staff are all very nice, there is always ample parking, and the wait times are generally not long. The bathrooms are always clean too and likewise the exam rooms. The phone staff for appointments are also professional and helpful and there are no long, wait times on the phone. There is also a very efficient process for filling out forms online prior to the visit as well! I am very selective and particular about medical care being in the medical field myself, but I can say that without any reservation whatsoever, I highly recommend this practice to all!!

As someone who usually keeps things simple and straightforward, I'm going a bit more in-depth this…read moretime because I think it's important for others to understand exactly what we experienced. This review is about our time with the Jupiter Lakes location of OB/GYN Specialists during what was supposed to be a joyful and supportive journey, our 1st pregnancy. Instead, it became a stressful and frankly disheartening and disillusioned experience that I feel others should know about. When my wife faced a serious mental health crisis, we turned to her OB/GYN providers for compassion and coordination. We expected that, as healthcare professionals who knew her situation, they would help us navigate this tough time. Instead, we received a letter out of the blue, no phone call, no conversation, saying they were transferring her care away from their facility. It was a cold piece of paper delivered to our door by a mail carrier, no heads-up, no empathy. It was only after we, along with our insurance (Blue Cross Blue Shield), had to push for more information that we found out the sole reason was because of the episode she experienced. What struck me most, and why I'm writing this detailed review, is that our insurance's behavioral health specialist showed more compassion than the doctors we trusted with my wife's prenatal care. They were more concerned about policies than about the well-being of a pregnant woman going through a hard time. I want to be clear: this is about the Jupiter Lakes location specifically. We saw in other reviews that we weren't alone in facing issues here, and it's important for others to know that this location may not provide the empathy you'd hope for in vulnerable moments. In the end, this is a one-star from me because no family should have to go through what we did. I'm not writing this out of vengeance; I'm writing it because I believe in being honest and detailed so others can make informed decisions. We learned the hard way that not every healthcare provider will offer the compassion you expect, especially when you're going through something as delicate as a first pregnancy combined with mental health challenges. I hope this review helps others know what to expect from this specific location. It's not about the entire OB/GYN Specialists group, but if you're looking for a place that truly stands by you in a difficult time, you might want to think twice about this particular office.

I have had the complete opposite experience as the previous person. It's just he and his wife in…read morethe office most days (occasionally an ultrasound technician so not sure what previous reviewer meant by staff) and they are so friendly and compassionate. I did have to go to an outside clinic but that is because this is a small office and they do not have every known piece of equipment there. I too am a healthcare professional and I can tell you that there is absolutely no way of knowing how much something is going to cost a patient and we can't tell you why either. ONLY your insurance can do that. Dr. Chaitin has a sign in every patient room that states this. When it was time for me to do tests he gave me a list of what he does so I could ask my insurance beforehand what was covered and what my out of pocket costs would be. I accidentally showed up on the wrong day after having to deal with a family emergency out of town. But instead of showing me the door neither of them said a word and fit me into their schedule (on Tuesday, their busiest day due to the ultrasound tech being there). I could NEVER say that about another doctor. So glad I found Dr. Chaitin.

I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Chaitin and his wife Debbie. They make you feel at home…read morein their office. Dr. Chaitin delivered my son and was amazing throughout my entire pregnancy. He also has performed surgery on me twice with ease. When I had to get a different surgery during Covid, with a different surgeon he woke up early and came to the hospital to sit with me in the waiting room knowing that I was nervous and had to be there alone. He then called my mom to say that he saw me and that I was doing ok. That level of care, commitment and just plain compassion and kindness is unmatched.
