I was looking up the number of the office to get some past information about vaccines and was shocked to see such a low yelp rating. Dr Coldren delivered both my son and daughter. I had great experiences both times. You don't wait too long in the waiting room - which is uncommon. I felt they were very professional and up to date. I could go into detail about how but don't want to write a book. I had my first daughter in Michigan with an office of all men. When I moved to pa and was going to all women I was afraid it would be more midwife than dr but I was pleasantly surprised. I'd recommend these ladies to anyone having a baby. I had a much better experience in this office over the one with all men. read more

I have been going here for years and the last visit I had was for my annual gyn. As a woman in her 50s, we had a brief discussion about menopause and she gave me some samples. This was billed separately from my exam. Cost $83 for a 5 minute discussion which I said I wasn't even worried about. Beware of discussing anything outside of normal exam as they will bill you for it. I'm wondering if I will be charged for discussing my grown child becoming a doctor. read more

I'm not sure where my review went, but it's important enough that I feel people should know what they did to me. My gynecologist (Dr.Struck) prescribed Zoloft & birth control for me. They have withheld both prescriptions from me time and time again in order to force me to make a pap appointment. The most recent time was during COVID for Zoloft. They actually withheld it from me and said I had to make a pap appointment. Holding birth control hostage is bad enough, but an antidepressant? I was floored and will never go back to mainline health for anything. How irresponsible. You never ever mess with someone's antidepressants. You all should be fined and sued. read more

I had an absolutely horrible experience here! I originally started going here because I wanted to find a Dr who would deliver at Paoli Hospital. All of my appointments here were awful throughout my pregnancy. The first Dr I saw was Dr Wheeler who assumed I qualified for chip and kept referring to me as "kiddo" and saying how young I was, despite the fact that I am a twenty-three year old grad school student and work full time. The nurses and other staff were also very rude and no one seemed to be on the same page. However, the worst part of my experience came at the end of my pregnancy. I had expressed to Dr Wheeler and the other Drs that I would like to have an elective induction and was told I was able to at 39 weeks. However when the date came, Dr Wheeler dragged her feet and kept pushing it back. She told my partner and I in not so many words that she was reluctant to schedule an elective induction bc the Exton practice had just merged with the other offices and she was unsure what the other Drs would think - her image and not making herself look bad were clearly her priority. She also told me that I was measuring at an 6.5-7lb baby and should wait until I was 41 weeks at the earliest for a medical induction after telling me many times before that I could get an elective induction. Thankfully a wonderful Dr from the Paoli practice was able to fit me in for an induction that night at 40 weeks 2 days and I ended up delivering an 8lb 4oz baby - the same day Dr Wheeler had given us the inaccurate measurements! The staff at Paoli Hospital told us I was right to push for an induction or else I could've been delivering a 9-10lb baby, and would most likely have had a c-section due to my size, had I waited a week longer. Moral of the story - trust your gut and don't be afraid to speak your mind. read more

I have used a practice like this before where you see four different female doctors so you get to know them all and then have a doctor you're familiar with no matter who is on call when you deliver. It worked for me before, but not at Great Valley OBGYN. These doctors don't seem to read the charts so you're constantly re-explaining your situation and birth plan. They also don't agree with each other so you're faced with four vastly different opinions about any scenario you bring up. They contradict each other and promise different things for your birth. This is not just confusing, but it becomes unsettling. My favorite in this practice was Dr. Wilson and I would return to her if she had a private practice. read more

I have had multiple problems with this practice and it is very concerning. First, like someone else stated they withheld my birth control in order to get me to schedule a pap. My biggest issue is they don't believe in their patients and IN SCIENCE! I find it baffling. I have not been sexually active due to medical problems that complicate things for me. They continue to make me take a pregnancy test further degrading and humiliating my situation. Today I was told, after asking why I am forced to take a pregnancy test that "science isn't always a 100% you could still get pregnant and not know." I AM NOT SURE HOW IF NO SPERM IS PRESENT?!?!?!?!?!?!? But to be told this by a medical professional , a profession based ON SCIENCE seems like (what the ladies like to call) a "red flag". This practice seems to be against women and not for using our strength together, during times like this when our bodies are being fought over like a toy between two toddlers, I want to be secure that my GYN supports me and I have serious doubts by the words and actions of this practice. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Bieter-Schultz, and I feel like she really cares. They are very quick too and great with follow ups as well. Couldn't be happier read more

This place is incredible if you are a blind millionaire who can't see what she is being charged for. Do you enjoy shredding money for leisure then by all means Great Valley OB-GYN is the right place for you. PS: I saw Pooja Gupta and as you already guessed I will never be back again, ever. read more

Usually don't have a problem here. Today I came in with lots of pain and saw Dr Bieter-Schultz. She seemed very uncaring and just put off the symptoms I was trying to explain to her. I left unclear of how to better help my situation and still in pain. Wouldn't recommend read more

I had a $1500 miscarriage. This was my experience with this practice. 1. My number one problem with this practice was the way they did their billing. I went to them for a pregnancy in July and had a miscarriage three weeks later. It is November 26 and I just received my FOURTH bill from them and items date all the way back to July. Even though I've already paid for some items for the July visit. The billing department tried to tell me it has to do with the timing in which the claims are processed by my insurance company, but I'm old enough to have been paying insurance bills and watching claims for some time. I have NEVER come across a more asinine way of doing billing. Every single month since having my miscarriage I've received a new bill with new charges and the dates range from the first visit to the last. I have a difficult time cross checking all the different charges across all the paper invoices I have received. Difficult not to wonder if new charges are just going to magically appear in a few months for things they forgot to bill me for. 2. I was billed for items that I should NEVER have been given. For instance, a test for gonorrhea and chlamydia was done without my consent. I should be able to give consent to ANYTHING done and I was not given the option and had to pay $150 for tests I could have told the them the results for. Another was the gestational diabetes test. Because of my previous pregnancy, they wanted to give me my glucose test early (at my second appointment at 8 weeks). However, between my first and second appointment, the office had determined that there was a concern over my HCG numbers (hence eventually having a miscarriage). If there was ANY concern about the pregnancy not moving forward, why give me the glucose test that can be performed at ANY time in the first two trimesters? Why give it to me at the 8 week appointment? To get money from me and the insurance company. As I told the nurse once this was all over, if everything had turned out fine, they could have given me the glucose test later. These are just two examples of things done that did not have to be. I, as the paying customer, end up literally paying the price. 3. The communication between the reception staff and the medical staff is nonexistent. Twice the receptionist who welcomed me gave me incorrect information. The first instance she told me I'd have to take a urine test every time I had an appointment so I did. Once I was called back, the nurse rolled her eyes after I told her I'd already done one and said oh no not the first time. The first time you have to do a song and a dance to make sure it's 'clean'. For heaven's sake. Made me redo the urine test while I was there as if I have an endless supply on command. The second instance was about the aforementioned glucose test. Had the receptionist taken a glance at my chart and she would have seen there were concerns and shouldn't give me the glucose test. Or the nursing staff should have communicated that it should wait. But it's not their money, right? 4. It is nearly impossible to get a call back if you are waiting for test results. On my first visit, the nurse asked if I wanted to check my HCG levels "just for peace of mind." I agreed. I was told by her that I would get blood test results back the next day. I called and left messages and finally 5 days later (because I had taken the blood test on a Thursday and they aren't open on weekends), I finally heard that the results weren't good. FIVE. DAYS. The nurse giving me the information claimed the first nurse was wrong- the test results take longer to come back. So who was lying? The ONLY reason I chose this practice is because I wanted a VBAC or gentle C-section and they were a practice that did both at the hospital I wanted. Lesson (expensively) learned. read more

Dr. Wendy Ronco is amazing! I highly recommend her. She is very attentive and personable. I've never met a doctor who listens as much as she does! I've tried other doctors here in the past and none have compared to Dr. Ronco. The nurse I always have before I meet with Dr. Ronco is always amazing too. She makes me feel very comfortable and is also very personable. I wish I knew her name. She is great! read more

For my first pregnancy with twins it was important for me to try and have a natural drug free delivery. There are 4 doctors in this practice, so every time you have an appointment you have a new doctor so that way you get to meet all of them since you never know who'll be on call to deliver your babies. My first apt. was with Dr. Wilson and she assured me that I would not be required to take an epidural to attempt a normal delivery with twins. She was ok as a doctor, she couldn't answer some of the questions I had, so I did not feel too confident in her ability. She also told me that I can only attempt to deliver naturally only if both babies are head down. My second apt. was with Dr. Wheeler and I liked her. She seemed to support my desire to have a natural birth and seemed knowledgeable. She told me that I could try and deliver naturally if baby A was head down and B was a breach, would still be okay. I was concerned at that point that doctors have different opinions on this and Dr. Wheeler even said herself and they seem to have a difference in opinion in their practice so the outcome will depend on comfort level and ability of whoever will be on call to deliver. My 3rd apt. was with Dr. Mentzer and because of her I decided to leave this practice. She was appalled by an idea that I would even consider drug fee delivery with twins and told me that she would not deliver without an epidural. I was shocked and so upset. Why did they waste so much of my time leading me think otherwise all along? Dr. Mentzer was not sympathetic at all and seemed very incompetent. She even told me that she would not try to deliver a breach singleton baby that it would be an automatic c-section. I would not recommend this practice (in particular Dr. Mentzer) to anyone. Stay away, especially if you're pregnant with twins and considering natural delivery. read more

I've had all three of my boys with these doctors. I've had great experiences with all the drs at that time (over 10 yrs ago). The office staff has been short at times. It seemed to be when they were very busy. So it was understandable. I only go annually now & am due to go again within the month. I will update this review after my appt. read more

I have been a patient here for the past 5 years. I find it enjoyable. I am not a fan of all of the Doctors but Dr. Gupta is amazing. The Nurse Practitioner, Barb Otto, is great as well. They made everything a wonderful experience with my pregnancy, and they were very helpful during the times when I was trying to find a birth control method that would work for me. Any negative reviews have no similarities to any of the experiences that I have had as well as everyone i know who goes there. These doctors have my complete trust for future pregnancies. Dr. Coldron is ok, but i feel that she is a little more old school as well as Dr. Wilson. Still I feel that they are very good doctors. Dr. Mentzer is no longer with the practice as I understand she and her family moved out of state. I have seen them all at some point and never felt the need to complain. Labor and delivery was great. Treatment is always great. I also felt that they were very nice with the fact that I was pregnant at a young age. I felt confident going into the office and knowing that I was not going to be judged, as i felt when going to Chester County OBGYN ONE time. Only thing that bothers me is that it is sometimes difficult to get an appointment when you want it, but they have always tried to tweak the schedules the best they could to work out seeing me! read more

Great experience! I've seen a different doctor each time, and they all know what they are talking about and did a great job with making me feel comfortable. They listened to my needs while managing my and their time respectfully. Awesome place! read more
