After coming to Penn after a abysmal care at another health system 15 years ago, Penn OB/GYN restored my faith in healthcare. I initially saw Dr B in Woodbury Heights some time ago, and moved my care into Philadelphia, at the time thinking it would just be annual visits.
I have had three high-risk pregnancies and C-sections (2019, 2021, and 2025), all under Dr Bavuso and her standard of care is phenomenal. She never makes you feel like just a number. She' s incredibly thorough, personable, genuinely listens, and pours her all into keeping mom and baby safe. Whenever complications arose she was vigilant and proactive. Communication through MyPennMedicine is great, questions and concerns are answered quickly. As a "poc" I feel it's important to acknowledge that I have always been respected, heard, and given exceptional care.
I also want to give a special shout-out to her MA (Rhonda). MAs rarely get the recognition they deserve, but having someone warm, welcoming, and attentive..setting the tone at every visit really makes a memorable difference and deserve to be recognized like everyone else.
If doctors had a Daisy-like reward Dr. Bavuso deserves 10. If you want a provider that is skilled, compassionate, and truly advocates for her patients, this is who you need. Five stars aren't enough. read more
