Dr. Butler seems friendly, but my appointment felt rushed. Everything I said was completely dismissed as normal, even though I am in so much pain, and it's consistently getting worse. After trying to explain each month I can hardly walk or even stand up she told me cardio would help. This appointment made me feel so hopeless, I've never cried in a doctors office until yesterdays appointment. She told me she "didn't want me to feel like she was just throwing a pill at me" but that's exactly what happened. I wasn't able to explain myself, and I think it really comes down to me being young. I'm only 20, but I know my body, I've been going through my cycles for nearly 9 years, and I didn't feel heard. I tried to make it clear that my menstrual cycle is nearly tearing my life apart and I don't even know if I can make it through another month, but she told me to come back in 4 months to see if anything changed. I tried being as open minded as possible, and I understand that she is busy, but this just added to my negative experiences of women's health care. This doctor would be great for someone looking for reassurance that they're healthy, but if you feel that something is wrong, based off my experience, I would NOT recommend this doctor. Unfortunately, especially if you are young :( read more

I am still in shock by how rude Dr. Butler was. I have never written a yelp review before but I feel compelled to warn others. I came to Dr. Butler with concerns about chronic pain in my vulva. Over the course of the ten minutes she spent we me she proceeded to blame my recent weight gain, tell me I was "being dramatic", and condescend to me for using the wrong medical terms about a condition I did not know about until that visit. On top of her overall horrible bedside manner, she was unnecessarily rough while examining me causing me to cry out in pain. When I did so she asked me why I was acting like I was in pain despite the fact that I was there because of pain in my vulva. After having complications with a medication she prescribed me I returned to the office to find out what was wrong. After waiting with my clothes off for a full half hour she chided me for returning over something "so minor" and then preceded to act as though I was making up that she prescribed me the medication that cost me $120 with insurance. When she finally found the note that she had in fact prescribed this medication she completely dismissed my concerns. I have now left her office crying twice because of her rough treatment and I advise anyone looking for a gyno in the city to steer clear. read more

I am sad to write this negative update. Its hard to find a doctor you love, especially for those usually unpleasant "ladies" visits. Dr. Butler has been good to me during the last two years I've been seeing her. But truly the office staff and the office policies are poor enough to drive me away. Every single time I visit, I wait 15 mins in the waiting room, and then 15-20 minutes shivering naked, save a glorified napkin draped over me in the examination room waiting for Dr. B. She's pleasant enough as far as the exams go, however, when I questioned the birth control I was on, she has refused to discuss other options with me. Their hours only allow for lunch time visits (at least for me), one of which I had scheduled yesterday. Work was out of control busy and it was impossible for me to sneak away, so I called as soon as I could to reschedule for the next available appt. The receptionist inquired as to the reason I couldn't make it (it felt more like a scolding); I explained I was having a day from hell and couldn't leave the office, my answer didn't seem good enough for her and I was notified of the $25 fee I would incur. If they are only going to offer their services during work hours in downtown Chicago (meaning 95% of your clients are working women), you have to be sensitive to the fact that unexpected things come up. I spend the majority of my time waiting for Dr. Butler each time I go, and I am positive she didn't give me $25 the time she canceled on me. I've never been late for an appointment, much less missed one, and I specifically asked for the next available. For first time "offenders" who aren't just being flakes, this shouldn't apply. That $25 will be the last they'll see of me. read more

Perfectly nice and approachable until you have a question about being overbilled by $500. Then Dr. Butler blows up and accuses you of questioning her medical judgement. Also, just a note because it was important to me, Dr. Butler does NOT deliver babies anymore. Absolutely Not Recommended. read more

My best friend and I both went to Dr. Butler based on the reviews found here. Unfortunately her office personnel are exceptionally rude and just plain don't care about patients. Dr. Butler herself was condescending and ignored many of the concerns I had came in about. When I called to get my records not only did they "forget" to send them--they now charge per page to get your own records and lied to me about how it's against the law to fax them although that's what the other office had requested. They seem to be a bill-happy establishment and I will not be going back and I don't even want to get into how horrendous an experience my friend had. Needless to say, this office is not what it should be and is definitely not in the business of helping women. Also ladies should you have an abnormal pap, this lovely dr will call you and tell you that you have cancer-which is not even remotely close to the truth-and recommend an immediate invasive procedure-thank God for second opinions! read more

I came to see Dr. Butler because she was the only OB/GYN in my PPO network that I could find with a good review on Yelp! And, as usual, Yelp did NOT disappoint me. Dr. Butler is awesome. She is easy to talk to, answered all my questions, and made me feel comfortable. Pap smears are never very much fun, but she made the experience about as pleasant as it can be. The rest of the office staff was very nice too. The only slight problem was that it seemed like I had to do a lot of waiting. To be fair, I was 5 minutes late for my appointment (I did call and warn them, though). Still, it seemed like once the nurse took my vitals, I had to wait quite a while for Dr. Butler in her office, and then again in the exam room. From the time I walked into the office until the time I walked out was 1 hour and 15 minutes, but it was my first visit so I guess that's to be expected. All in all, I'm glad Yelp helped me find a great OB/GYN close to our condo! read more

I was looking for a doctor in the city and chose Dr. Butler based on her Yelp reviews. (It didn't hurt that her office is only two blocks from mine!) When I first called, it was at least a month until I could make an appointment, but that's been my experience with my former doctors as well. I didn't wait very long in the waiting room, which was good because they need to do some serious redecorating. Dr. Butler interviewed me in her office, which was so much nicer than getting asked a bunch of questions while you're wearing nothing but a paper towel. She was friendly and intelligent. She gave me information on some new birth control options, including a free sample to try the Nuva Ring. The exam was quick and painless. When I asked her about the HPV vaccine, she gave me some information but didn't pressure me to do it, since it's $200 up front. I felt comfortable with her and feel like she is a good choice if you're looking for a regular gyno in Chicago, although perhaps not if you often need to go in at the last minute. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Bulter for years and I really like her. Besides that fact that she knwos what the heck she's talking about, on your first visit you go into her actual office (the one with the desk and chair) and talk abotu why you're there so she can assess if she's the right doc for you. The only think I hate is the hours. They're regular business hours so I have to use my lunch hour to go see her. Luckily I already work downtown but it sucks when the visit takes more than an hour. Oh and I also hate the $25 fee if you miss an appointment or fail to cancel with 24 hours. I do understand it, but I think it's bullshit. read more

I think this is probably the first review I've ever felt compelled to write. If Dr. Butler is in network for you, run don't walk to her office!! I have gone to Dr. Butlers for years now and she is the best gynecologist I've had. She takes time to make me feel comfortable and answers all my questions thoroughly. I am never afraid to ask anything silly not have I ever felt rushed out of my appointment. She is also just a very kind person with good bedside manners. She remembers the little details and checks in making the apt feel genuine and personalized. To top it all off the secret star of the show is Dr. Butler's medical assistant Shanitta (I am not sure what her official title is l, I apologize if it's not medical assistant) is AMAZING! I call all the time with questions and she is patient and helpful!! She always gets back to me SO fast and is so willing to help! Once, I called the day before a big trip and she made sure I had the medicine I needed on very short notice. She is a hard worker and a joy to be with! As someone who generally doesn't enjoy doctors visits, Dr. Butler and her team are my shining exception. read more

I'm going to echo all of the positive reviews here. Dr. Butler is fantastic. She remembers details about your personal life and takes the time to listen. We chatted for awhile about my recent engagement and wedding plans and I actually I forgot I was at the OB/Gyn! The staff is very friendly and I will say that the length of a visit varies. My last trip was quick...in and out in under 45 minutes. But another time I actually fell asleep and took a nap in my paper gown while waiting for my exam. But the quality of health care is worth the wait...be it 2 minutes or 20. Dr. Butler is personable, funny, direct, professional and totally on top of everything. She has called me personally to discuss test results and answer any questions I may have had. I recommend her without hesitation. read more

Went to Dr. Butler for the fist time today. The wait was short. About 15 minutes. Then I went into an office, she & I sat together, talked about me, family history, etc. Then I was placed in the exam room and she was in in about 5 minutes. She is very personable, nice and chatty, but professional. She educates as she discusses what she's doing. She asked me if I had any questions ( at least a couple times.) The nurses were all friendly, nobody seemed to be rushing me about. They told me when to expect pap results. I will certainly be going back here. It was a very pleasant experience, and I thank Dr. Butler and staff for that. read more

Dr. Butler was recommended to me by one of my best friends and I have been thankful for that recommendation ever since. I've been seeing Dr. Butler for a few years and she is one of the most genuine and thorough gynecologist I've ever used, and I've moved around a lot for work, etc and she is seriously my favorite thus far. I don't quite know why she and the staff is getting such negative feedback, they have always been more than pleasant and professional with me. Dr. Butler does such a great job of making you feel at ease and is so in tuned to what you need in your current female stage of life. She makes this mostly uncomfortable and dreadful experience more bearable by her comforting bedside demeanor and genuine care and concern about your well-being. I highly recommend her and will be seeing her myself for many years to come. read more

My experience with Dr. Kellie Butler has been the most awful experience I have ever had with a doctor. I was looking for a new Gynecologist closer to home in the city, due to the fact that my previous doctor was further away in the suburbs and I do not have a car. I found Dr. Butler and visited her for both my annual pap smear, as well as an ongoing issue that I was having with some reoccurring vaginal symptoms. Dr. Butler was rude, dismissive, and not even remotely close to having any bedside manner. I was frustrated with a reoccurring issue that could not be solved after visiting doctors every few weeks (between Dr. Butler and urgent care). Dr. Butler let me know she would perform a vaginal swab that would take 7 days for results (a longer time than I'm used to). Little did I know that this single swab would cost me $750. The best part is she did it again months later as a precautionary measure. I now have a bill totaling $1100. Meanwhile $1100 later she STILL didn't solve the problem. I had to go to my original doctor who solved the problem with a simple test for $35. After calling Dr. Butler's office and dealing with my insurance company, I can tell you that Dr. Butler's office is only in the business of getting money from patients. They refuse to help me with my bill, despite acknowledging that $1100 is an astronomical amount for a patient to pay and they need to stop these tests immediately. Beware of this office. They will make you feel uncomfortable, not important and you will be out several hundreds of dollars with zero answers to your problems. read more

I've gone to Dr. Butler for about 7 years now and find her to be really nice and empathetic. She has always been friendly to me and explains what she's about to do before she does it. I will say I have not had many questions or issues where I would have run into the problem some of the other reviewers have had with Dr. Butler's bedside manner. She has always been very nice and respectful to me and I don't dread going in. I docked a star because of the wait time. I had the first appointment last time I went in, and still waited almost an hour. There is always a long wait, which is very frustrating. read more

Dr Butler is great! ...worth the hour long wait? Probably. She was incredibly pleasant and made the awkward situation a little less uncomfortable. The staff staff was very nice and pleasant, don't know who this "Shanita" that yelpers are complaining about is, or if I met her during my visit, but everyone I dealt with was both pleasant and efficient. The only issue I had, and reason I deducted a star, was the hour long wait even when I had made an appointment. read more

Great visit. Staff very friendly. Dr. Butler made me feel at ease. Only issue is location. I'm glad I read the reviews. read more

I went in to see Dr. Butler about 2 years ago. I know, why am I writing the review now? I feel the need to share. Dr. Butler was pleasant, and the only reason I'm giving more than 1 star. The office is a dump - there's a very strange statue of a boy coming out of a shell (WTF?) in the waiting room. Very weird, very 80s/90s, they clearly need an update. The rest of the staff was not pleasant. They charged me a specialist co-pay for an annual visit, to which I questioned and later confirmed w/my insurance company was incorrect, as I had suspected. I wonder how many more people they rip off by doing this? read more

Well, I'd say it was my first time to see an OB/GYN dr., so I'd say that my experienced with Dr. Butler was amazing. She could tell that I was so nervous and she made me feel comfortable through out the entire time. She was very professional and have a good bed side manner. Kudos to Dr. Butler. **The only thing that I had a problem with was my information (email & cell no) that was put incorrectly in their system, so I was not able to receive my results right away; however, Dr. Butler assistant, Shanita, called me back and corrected the problem after I called them back.** Anyway, I'd definitely see Dr. Butler again. Will recommend her. read more

IF ANYONE thinks Dr. Butler or Shanita are rude, there is something major wrong with that person. Dr. Butler has gone above and beyond compassion when it comes to helping me...and Shanita is just as awesome. Hey people, take a look in the mirror, maybe it's YOU that has the problem Laura D read more

Yeah, I get it that if a person becomes an ob/gyn they are probably very pro-child. However, to refuse to accomodate another woman's wishes because she happens to not be pro-child is awful in my opinion. Add to that a long lecture, rather condescending tone and waxing poetically about the joys of motherhood and you have a real waste of a $50 copay and your lunch hour. read more

My second visit here was a nightmare. First off, I waited over 45 minutes to get in for my appointment- always awesome when you are on your lunch hour from work. Once I actually got in for the exam, I had just a horrible experience with Dr. Butler. I can't really get into any specifics, but I was very disappointed with how condescending and almost insulting she was to me when I brought up some issues I was having. I literally walked out of the office in tears of frustration. I will definitely not be going back to her. read more

Hypothetically speaking: if you took your car to the dealer for a rather routine repair and the mechanic said the job was done, so you paid and left... and then discovered the job wasn't actually complete, what would you do? Probably return and expect the job be properly completed, as you'd already paid for, right? Short version: after what I felt was an incomplete visit, I returned for a follow-up. Little did I expect to end up with a 2nd whollop of a bill, asking me to pay (again) for what I felt I'd already paid for (and felt I hadn't fully received) the first time. Calling to complain resulted in the office re-submitting my 2nd bill to the insurance, trying to get more $$ out of them as I expressed my disbelief at being asked to pay for the same thing twice. First of all, I was upset at having to go back for something I felt shouldn't have been missed the first time and probably wouldn't have needed to had I not felt my visit was rather rushed. Second of all, Doctors are running a business, and I expect to be treated as a paying customer. I felt like the office/billing staff was rather surprised that I would call to complain about having to come back or even try to dispute a bill, but I feel that it's important for us (as customers) to advocate for our rights. Getting anyone to even call me back to discuss the matter was very difficult. This didn't stop the office from sending me multiple scary notices of 'final bill, next step is collections!' The final straw was the time I went in for JUST a vaccine - meaning I didn't even need to see the doctor, just a quick visit with the medical assistant. I made the appointment for first thing in the day (hoping this would mean there'd be little wait as the office wouldn't be backed up yet). I waited close to an hour before finally asking when I could just get my darn shot so I could go to work. Finally, after I asked, they took me in. And charged me my $30 co-pay (which I tried, to no avail) explain didn't apply to a vaccine-only visit. Sure enough, my BCBS statement arrived, saying they'd paid the bill and I owed no-co-pay. I called the office asking for my $30 back, I was assured a check would be sent.... yup, I'm sure that check is still in the mail somewhere, over the rainbow. (11/30/10- Update: over a month after my last phone call, the $30 check arrived, it's a Christmas miracle!) read more

DON'T EVER GO SEE Kellie Butler or anyone at Women's Health Consulting of Chicago. I had a simple skin tag removed for cosmetic purposes and we discussed that she would NOT be sending this to the lab for testing, because we both agreed there was nothing wrong. Welp, she did and now I owe $300 in lab fees. I called to discuss this with her and she and her office management staff was VERY rude and basically indicated that she had to cover her own *ss and that when I signed a consent before my visit started that was enough for them to send off my specimen to the lab if they wanted to. DON'T EVER EVER EVER go see her. EVER. read more

I've sent at least 5 girlfriends to Dr Butler over the years, after a girlfriend sent me to her - she's fantastic. She's quick, she's very friendly (but not awkwardly so, considering where she has to work), her staff is nice and she's pain free. She's great about talking with you to find out what's new and going on, if there's anything to worry about, questions, tests to run, etc. before starting the exam. She can take a while to get in to and once you're there there's a good chance your time with her will start 30-45 minutes later than you thought so you should plan ahead, but she's worth it. Totally worth it. read more

I don't know if Dr. Butler was having a bad day when I met her, but my experience was not like most of the reviewers here. She was indeed friendly and personable, but she didn't actually listen to me regarding the problem that brought me in. I know she was rushed that day (my appointment for a later time had been rescheduled so she could leave early), but that doesn't mean that I should get a lesser visit. Also, my problem was not in my head. A month later, with symptoms still continuing, I went to another doctor who quickly and easily diagnosed it and gave me meds to solve it in less than a week. UPDATE: I mentioned several other things that I thought were odd when I met Dr. Butler, who didn't respond to them or said they weren't serious. I mentioned the same thing to my regular doc as well, who ran some tests and then sent me to a specialist. Turns out the symptoms are actually pretty serious and could have resulted in cancer or diabetes if I didn't get the treatment I am getting now. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Butler for 5 years now and before that saw Dr. Hite from the same practice. Both are excellent doctors. Dr. Butler is a really cool person - very friendly, great memory and takes gives me the genuine feeling that she is taking an interest in my life. In spite of the fact that I only see her once or twice a year, she recalls important things and will connect them to health discussions if so need be. I can cleanly recommend her as a smart, conscientious, helpful, super normal gynecologist. BTW: for those of you who care about age of your doctors, I would say Dr. Butler is under 40. read more

It upsets me to write this because I really like Dr. Butler and have gone to her for years. I've also recommended her to numerous friends and family. However, I have to write a negative review because her office staff is just absolutely atrocious. They cancelled on me twice recently just days before I was set to come in (and after I had made the appointment months out). And then when I showed up for my (second) reschedule, after sitting in the hot, crowded waiting room for forty minutes, a very rude nurse called me into a room to inform me that I was not on the schedule and that it must have somehow been my fault. She also said the doctor could not see me and I would have to reschedule YET AGAIN! I'm really sad that I'm going to have to find a different doctor, however, Dr. Butler's staff has given me the runaround one too many times. If you can get past appointment scheduling errors, a long wait and rude staff, Dr. Butler is a wonderful doctor. However, my time is too valuable and my patience too short to deal with her awful staff. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Butler's for several years and I have always found her to be quick, thorough, professional and friendly. However, I completely agree with what everyone has mentioned about the office staff at Women's Health Consulting. 75% of their staff seems to be standing around 90% of the time, but more troubling is Dr. Butler's assistant, Shanita. She is unfriendly and downright condescending. Due to insurance changes, I have had to change my birth control method a couple times and Shanita acts as if it is a chore and has stated that I can expect to see these issues as long as I have to stay on generic medication (which I of course have to do because most insurance plans don't pay much for brand-name birth control). She has never tried to offer a real solution and has a horrible bedside manner. It's unfortunate that Dr. Butler's professional, compassionate approach has not rubbed off on her staff at all. read more

Everybody here is not patient at all. When you call them for whatever reasons (appointment, talk to doctor, etc. ), they put you on hold for a long time, then another people ask the same thing, then put you on hold again. Then another round... Dr. Bulter is not patient as well especiall when you need something. Like another review (K S wrote on 1/3/2008), they do not really care about what is really happen to you. Turn to another OB after the first visit. read more

Dr. Butler is an amazing lady! I've been seeing her for a few years now after going through a few different lady doctors, and she's the one that I'm sticking with for the long run. She is just so personable and friendly that you almost forget what she's doing (almost haha). I recommended her to a friend who had yet to make her first lady doctor visit, and she loved Dr. Butler as well. We both made our appointments for the same day, and after a scheduling snafu that had me down for a different doctor (errors happen, it's not the end of the world), they apologized profusely, and Dr. Butler made sure that she could squeeze me in as soon as possible so that my friend and I could stick with our lunch plans. I ended up getting out of there before my original appointment was set to begin! Also, Dr. Butler's medical assistant Shanita is just as awesome. She's really sweet and very smart and on top of things. If I call with questions, Shanita is always happy to answer them or find them out for me. 100%recommend both of them. On a sidenote, once Dr. Butler was on vacation, and I needed to see someone, so I made an appointment with Dr. Hite, and he was also a joy to meet with. read more

It is so rare that you find a doctor who knows their stuff and is cool! Dr. Butler is all that and then some! I saw her a few weeks ago on the recommendation of the woman on Yelp and you guys couldn't be more correct, she is fantastic. Down to earth, funny, smart and very strong minded. She and I did not see eye to eye on somethings but it did not make me want to walk out the door or not see her again. Usually when I disagree with a doctor, I usually don't go back but we just agreed to disagree! A doctor is supposed to be there to guide you and help you with whatever it is that is wrong with you and give you all the options. Just because she doesn't agree with you, doesn't mean she is bad. She's too good to walk away from, especially when it comes to your health! read more

I usually go see Dr. Rubin but she had a long wait to get in to see her so I saw Dr. Butler for the first time. Although I had to wait 20minutes past my appointment time (which I think no matter what doctor you see, you have to wait there) I was very happy with Dr. Butler. She was super down to earth, easy to talk to and answered all my questions I had. I saw other reviews about her nurse Shanita and I didn't have any issues with her. She didn't tell me any of my vitals (which I just like to know) and when I asked her, she said "sorry, I don't like to talk because I have to write it all down before I forget." But otherwise, she was fine and Dr. Butler was in to see me no longer than five minutes after Shanita left. I also had a young phlebotomist who did great and was very nice to talk to. I think I might switch to Dr. Butler from Dr. Rubin. Very happy with my experience with her. read more

I hate writing bad reviews, but I have done my ethical obligation and attempted to talk with Kellie Butler to try and remedy her behavior which did not go well. She seemed very threatened by a patient asking to speak with her regarding her condescending manner in treatment. She seems to have entered some sort of personal struggle this past year where she becomes very threatened and rude when a patient is knowledgeable of research and has questions pertaining to safety of drugs and practices. She is also very rude when patients do not understand the forms she asks them to fill out. I agree with one of the other posters that her tendency to "gloss" over important safety information has been a concern. I would never go to her if I were pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant, but I thought she would be "okay" for regular annual testing. However, I will not continue to go to her even for routine tests due to her condescending nature and a lack of willingness to listen to patient concerns and feedback without rude behavior. It was especially a concern that when one of her patients kindly stated that she felt demeaned, Dr. Butler became worse. Also, I agree with the rest of the posts. The front desk staff is nice enough, but the medical assistant I had clearly did not like people. The room wasn't very clean either. I feel sorry for Dr. Butler. I was shocked that someone working so intimately with people can only seem to do so as long as the patient simply absorbs everything she says. She is clearly more interested in her research than her patients. It saddens me to say, but I honestly did not feel that she truly cares about patients. Just about research and an attempt at a power play. Maybe she likes babies...? She is in clear violation of the medical ethics code in her treatment of patients. I pray she resolves whatever personal issues are surrounding this. It would be nice if she wanted a humble conversation. Our world so needs healthy conflict-resolution skills...especially expected from those with higher degrees! In the meantime, find a Doctor that has been voted in the Chicago's Top Doctors or America's Top Doctors. They are a distinguished lot when it comes to truly caring for patients. read more

Dr. Butler really is terrific, like everyone says. I really appreciated the in-office interview, and we discussed different dietary options that affect women, along with different pros/cons for birth controls. She's a wealth of knowledge - I would definitely recommend her! read more

I was bracing myself for a bad experience based on the reviews. Even though Dr. Butler had been referred to me, I was told (outside of Yelp) the staff can be horrible and you can be stuck waiting for up to an hour which seeemed to jive with the reviews here. Well, I think it helped a lot that my appointment was first thing in the morning instead of during the (probably very busy) lunch hour. Everyone was so nice and helpful. I especially appreciated the fact I could get blood drawn in-house, and the technician was very understanding that I'm sometimes a fainter. My former OB/gyn went on medical leave and never returned, so I had a lot of anxiety and fear about finding a new practice. Dr. Butler was extremely helpful and understanding about all of my issues and questions. I will post an updated review should I have any problems in the future, but at the moment I am quite hopeful and happy. read more

I want to reiterate all the positives from the other reviews. I have a patient of Dr. Bulter since I moved to Chicago. She really is a fantastic doctor. I appreciate her interest in me as a patient/person. I have always had good experiences with her staff, her nurses, as well as Dr. Butler. She's knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. If you're looking for an OB/GYN she's definitely someone I would reccomend. It can take a while to get an appointment but if you have the time to plan ahead I reccomend calling her. read more

Dr. Butler is awful - bottom line. Upon finding out that they didn't run a test I requested, I called to find out why. The doctor called me back and was condescending, rude, and impatient - she told me she didn't have time to explain anything (but YOU called ME?). And then she told me that she refused to help me further if I was going to question her medical expertise (apparently asking a question to understand my own health is questioning her expertise - and more than she can take) Save yourself. read more

This was my first visit to a gyno and Dr. butler made it painless. After filling out my paperwork, it was about a 15 minute wait. I went to her office and discussed family history and any issues or questions I had. Then i was placed in an exam room and was done in about 10 minutes. Abolutely brief and painless. read more

I saw Dr. Butler bc my usual ob/gyn was not available on the day I wanted to come in. She was polite when she walked in and introduced herself, but my experience was like another reviewer said: "She is not compassionate; very matter of fact and questions you if you ask her questions as if your an idiot for not understanding her." I almost interrupted her at one point to ask if she was being sarcastic, but I didn't. I couldn't figure out if she was just having a tough day, or if this is her personality. One thing I will say is she doesn't seem incompetent, she just doesn't seem to be a people-person, which is probably a huge disadvantage given the field she's in. In any case, expect professional but not warm care. This doctor certainly will not coddle you. She also will not entertain any questions/concerns regarding anything other than ob/gyn issues. I would not hesitate to return to Dr. Butler if I needed backup care again, but I will be keeping my primary ob/gyn. FYI: The office is beautiful and accessible, if you work in the loop, and the staff is kind and efficient. read more

Dr. Butler is the best - kind and thorough.
