He is a very skilled and professional doctor. Unlike my primary doctor, who had gone on a pre-planned trip on the day of my delivery, he ensured that my labor was successful and much shorter. His kind face was very calming and comforting, and had a very positive energy. Even after the delivery, he kindly said that he would provide a free visit if needed. read more

Obgyn Care - Great experience - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Words cannot express how deeply grateful I am to have found Dr. Marinescu. He was my second opinion after I was diagnosed with a massive 14 cm dermoid cyst on my left ovary -- which had doubled in size during pregnancy -- along with a new, smaller cyst on my right. My original surgeon panicked, telling me he could no longer perform the surgery laparoscopically, that it would need to be open surgery, and most devastating of all -- that saving my left ovary would not be possible. As a brand new mom with a 3 month old hoping to grow our family, this sent me into a spiral of fear and heartbreak about my fertility. Dr. Marinescu was the complete opposite: calm, compassionate, and confident. While he was realistic that there were no guarantees, he believed there was a good chance he could save my ovary and even do so with robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. After days of tears, the moment I met him, I felt a sense of peace. I knew I was in the best hands. My experience with Dr. Marinescu and the entire Hoag Hospital system was nothing short of exceptional. I never waited more than 10 minutes for any appointment, lab, or scan. Everything was organized, smooth, and patient-centered. The surgery prep was seamless, the staff were warm and reassuring, and I went into the OR feeling truly cared for and at peace. When Dr. Marinescu came out to tell my husband that the surgery had gone great -- and that he had saved both of my ovaries -- my husband literally cried. It was such a relief that this was all behind us. My only regret is that I don't live closer so that Dr. Marinescu could be my OB for future pregnancies. We live in Ventura County and gladly traveled the distance because we knew this was the doctor we could trust with something as precious as our fertility. Thank you so much, Dr. Marinescu. My family and I are so SO happy that we found you and trusted you with this surgery!!! Brianna read more

I went to Dr. Marinescu for a second opinion on heavy menstrual bleeding causing anemia. I will say: the doctor speaks softly and comes across as kind and well spoken. I had no problem with his accent. That is all for the positives. *If you value your healthy reproductive organs, be warned. This doctor seems a bit too eager to part you from them.* Despite no other patients, I waited a very long in the waiting room and again in the examination room. This gave me the opportunity to closely observe that his examination room was dirty, with dusty equipment, old dust on devices, between buttons, in corners. After sitting through all that, I was handed consent forms for an invasive biopsy without proper explanation. I protested. Only then the doctor came in and informed me he was diagnosing me with adenomyosis, just off a general ultrasound ordered by my PCP. He immediately pushed for a hysterectomy. When I said I still wanted children, he discouraged me heavily, saying I would have a hard time conceiving and then carrying a healthy pregnancy given my age (40) and the condition of my uterus. When I said my prev pregnancy was a quick natural conception and easy, he brushed it off as a fluke. Dr. M. kept pushing hysterectomy, telling me how skilled he was at performing it laparoscopically. I left the office confused. When I later requested an MRI (the gold standard for this diagnosis), it showed no indication of adenomyosis. The office still pushed for surgery, so I cut contact. Two years later, after unrelated surgery, pathology confirmed my uterus was completely healthy and capable of pregnancy. Dr. Marinescu's rushed diagnosis and mistaken pregnancy prognosis (the claim I couldn't not conceive) was a factor in my decision to include hysterectomy in my other procedure - a decision I now regret. To make a long story short: Dr. Marinescu pushed unnecessary sterilization surgery. His office was dusty. Stay away. read more

I've had the privilege of having Dr. Marinescu deliver both of my babies, and I can't say enough good things about him and his team. The girls in the front office so kind always so warming when I needed anything. He is incredibly professional, kind, and patient -- always taking the time to answer all my questions and make me feel comfortable and cared for throughout each pregnancy. No matter what I needed, he was always there and never made me feel rushed. His staff is also amazing -- welcoming, organized, and genuinely caring. I'm so grateful for the wonderful experience I had under his care and wouldn't trust anyone else for such an important moment in my life. read more

Dr. Marinescu is irresponsible and negligent. He is not compassionate and he does not care about his patients. Even after we made an appointment to come in and were emotional in front of him voicing how upset we were at the lack of communication (no calls, no emails, nothing) following our son's stillbirth at 38 weeks, we still received no calls. No follow up. No check in. We also brought a list of questions to ask and he said "you're not really going to ask all of these are you?" After LOSING OUR SON. Mind blowing. I absolutely do not recommend this office and I am so glad to hear Dr. Perkins practices elsewhere now. When dealing with human lives as your JOB, I think it's pretty important to know how to support your patients when a life is lost. read more

Follow up to my first review! I would highly recommend Dr marinescu to any new mother. He's so easy going and made me feel like everything would always be okay. He delivered my first baby about a week ago and I am beyond blessed. I have referred him to several woman friends of mine already and one of them already had a positive experience. He's located next to Hoag hospital which is great and he works with most insurances. I will continue to recommend to any new moms his contact. One huge benefit is you are never waiting for doctor he's always on time and your appointment time is when he will see you. That is a huge plus in my book. read more

This is going to be a long review. I can't express enough gratitude for Dr. Marinescu and his amazing team. I have a long medical history with ovarian cysts -- I've had three ovarian cystectomy surgeries since my early 20's due to mucinous cystadenoma, a condition which my ovarian cysts tend to grow very large (up to 30 cm). In all my previous surgeries, the doctors initially attempted laparoscopic procedures but had to convert to open surgery because of the cyst's size. Those experiences left me with long, deep scars and very difficult recoveries. When I recently went to the ER for pelvic pain and discovered another giant cyst, I was devastated. I began researching for the best surgeon specializing in minimally invasive surgery, and that's how I found Dr. Marinescu. From my first consultation, I knew I was in excellent hands. He was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate, taking the time to explain every detail and answer all my questions. His confidence and expertise immediately gave me peace of mind. Thanks to Dr. Marinescu's exceptional skill in robotic and minimally invasive surgery, he was able to remove my large cyst laparoscopically and saved my ovary -- something no other surgeon had been able to do before. I was amazed by how minimal my scars are and how quickly I recovered this time. Finding Dr. Marinescu has truly been a blessing. I am beyond grateful for his dedication, precision, and compassion. If you are searching for a skilled OB-GYN surgeon who genuinely cares and excels in advanced techniques, Dr. Marinescu is the one you want by your side. I also want to mention how wonderful his office staff were -- so kind, responsive, and supportive throughout the entire process. read more

I was referred to Dr. Marinescu by Hoag Emergency Room after experiencing persistent pelvic and bladder pain. Since I didn't have a regular gynecologist, they suggested him for follow-up care. For almost a month, I had been struggling with constant pain that no one could explain. Hoag ran several tests but found nothing. When I called Dr. Marinescu's office, he was able to fit me in the very next day, which is almost unheard of these days, where appointments can take months to schedule. The office staff was incredibly kind, and when I explained my symptoms to Dr. Marinescu, he immediately suggested performing a cystoscopy, even though it wasn't originally planned for my visit. Luckily, he was already set up to perform the same procedure for another patient later that day, so I eagerly agreed--at that point, I was willing to try anything for relief. During the procedure, Dr. Marinescu discovered a kidney stone blocking my ureter, preventing urine from emptying into my bladder. He was able to remove the stone right then and there, giving me instant relief after weeks of pain. I had been suffering for nearly a month, feeling like I was being passed from one doctor to the next without answers. Dr. Marinescu's quick action saved me from continued agony. I'm so grateful to have found him, and he will now be my OB/GYN moving forward. What a gift! read more

Although we have not had other obgyn's, I can confidently say Dr. Marinescu is a remarkable doctor and my wife would most likely mirror everything I am about to share. It's been over a month since our second child was born and he was delivered without any complications. Similar to a previous review, Dr. Marinescu also helped to cover the first C-section scar where it had developed keloids and advised my wife the proper care and treatment to minimize the scarring. He's very to the point and does not sugar coat anything, which is something we really appreciated since he always gave us clear direction on our options but also made sure to emphasize where there may be risk and would provide his own thoughts based on experience when we asked for recommendations. Additionally, I had a trip that needed to be cancelled due to his travel limitations, and he was able to provide the medical certification form needed to reimburse my travel insurance! read more

Been going here for years and my time here is done. Over a year ago, I went in to express my concerns with potentially having PCOS, I told him my symptoms and he looked at me and said that I do not have it, he said I would be "heavier" and "have more hair and acne," which is super upsetting because in the medical field a disease does not have a "look" it is treated from within, so fast forward a couple months I go back because I know something is wrong and he orders an ultrasound for me, and I found out I do in fact have PCOS. I went back to this doctor and gave him the results and he said "you don't look like someone that has PCOS, so I want you to get retested." This is frustrating because I've been advocating for myself for over a year with this doctor. So I get another ultrasound and sure enough I have PCOS. I come back and he gives me NO information and NO advice on what to do next. It feels like a waste of time and money. After months of recurring BV, I later learned (from another doctor) that in chronic cases, partner involvement and prevention strategies are sometimes part of the conversation. This was never mentioned to me. Instead, I was repeatedly prescribed antibiotics with no clear explanation or plan. As an immunocompromised patient, this felt careless and frustrating. I'm really disappointed in the lack of care from this doctor and I hope he does better going forward. read more

I totally agree with all the 5-star reviews. My visit was to find a knowledgeable gynecologist and that absolutely was the case with Dr Marinescu! First, I was able to get an appointment quickly, which is always critical on these issues. Second, his office staff was helpful and friendly and his office and waiting room were pleasant and clean, although my wait to see Dr Marinescu was even more pleasantly very short. Most importantly, Dr Marinescu was indeed kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable and most importantly, he helped me understand accurately the issue I was dealing with. He did not push any extra treatments but was encouraging about proper care/next steps. I will definitely be seeing Dr Marinescu for all future gyn issues! Thank you, Dr Marinescu! read more

I don't understand how anyone can give Dr. Marinescu a less-than-5-star review. Dr. Marinescu oversaw my unplanned first pregnancy from the beginning till the end. I was pretty nervous about the whole ordeal of pregnancy and delivery but always felt like I was in good hands. Appointments were always quick and to the point which I much appreciated. I had to deliver my baby a little early due to a condition and his office quickly set me up for delivery at Hoag NB. Dr. Marinescu also checked on me twice at the hospital after the delivery. One time he checked in at 4:30 am so I guess he must have showed up for an early delivery that day. He has excellent bedside manner and highest level of professionalism. read more

Dr. Marinescu made a decision that saved our lives. Forever grateful for his staff and his care. He carefully monitored us throughout the pregnancy and even now after. Highly recommended for all OBGYN needs. read more

I cannot recommend him enough for minimally invasive surgery. Truly life changing. One year later and scars barely visible and no post op complications even with high BMI. The office team is also great and answers phone and email anytime I had questions. If you need a myomectomy please don't delay and see him ASAP! I have also switched all my normal gyn needs to him as I was so impressed after my surgery. read more

I've been with OBGYN CARE since 2016, and Dr. Marinescu was amazing with my c section! He has always been so detailed, and makes sure that the baby, and the mom is in good health! He was even able to make my scar better from my first c section! I had keloids and he was able to make it a clean line. Now in 2023... I went in for my Annual check up, and he found that I had a cyst on my left ovary! My stomach was growing and I have been having pains but I thought it was my other issues that were causing them. He quickly issued tests to see the cyst, and found out I had endometriosis and the endometrium (chocolate cyst) on top of all my other issues... he then ran other tests to see if I was fit for surgery and got me in as soon as possible! Now I'm 5 weeks in recovery after a successful hysterectomy, and cyst removal! I've heard horror stories from other women about other obstetricians just minimizing their pains... you will not go through that here... He truly cares! And will do the very best for you! Dr. Marinescu... He is a gem! He's brilliant! And he's such a skilled surgeon... And I feel blessed to have him as my Obgyn... I will forever be grateful to him! And also his staff are all super sweet, and amazing too!!!! read more

Just moved back to OC and needed to find a new OBGYN to manage my pregnancy. So glad I found Dr. Marinescu. I did a lot of research and picked him overall due to his reviews and medical achievements. He has a very quiet and calm bedside manager which can put someone who is anxious at ease. He is definitely a man of very little words but you can tell he is very knowledgeable when you ask him any questions. Can't wait to see how the rest of my pregnancy goes under his care! read more

Dr Marinescu is heaven sent. I have been his patient for 7 years and his confidence is absolutely unmatched, in a totally non arrogant kind of way. He performed a csection on me and I'm grateful he was my surgeon. I had a much easier recovery compared to some other women I know, my scar healed quickly and I had no issues. Every time I see him for anything that comes up, he's got terrific bed side manners. read more

Horrible experience in 2018 although I doubt it would be any different now, sadly. I was seeing Dr Marinescu during my first pregnancy when I was 33 years old. We did the 10-week NIPT blood work to find out the gender early. It came back high risk for Down syndrome but they wouldn't provide that information over the phone - they had us come in which in itself was saying that this was bad news and indicated bias and outdated information about a life with Down syndrome. The bloodwork only shows a RISK - NOT a firm diagnosis - but he immediately went into OPTIONS...about my baby, the child that was growing in my body. Told me I could terminate the pregnancy up to X weeks, and that further testing was extremely dangerous. What if further testing DIDN'T confirm the diagnosis and we took his advice? That was the last time we saw him. I went to a wonderful high-risk doctor (Kurtzman) and switched my OB immediately (Pacific Women's Healthcare). The high-risk doctor (who is pro-life) said we can do further testing (and that it isn't extremely dangerous) which did confirm Down syndrome. I'll have you know, Dr. Marinescu, that my child, a boy (which you didn't even care to tell us as it wasn't important to you since he was just cells that should be aborted in your opinion), is WORTHY of life. He is 2.5 now and thriving - full of joy, walking, talking, loving on his baby sister...and he has ZERO health issues (if health is, to you, what determines a life is worthy or not). He has a positive effect on EVERY SINGLE PERSON he meets. I cannot say the same for you, or myself. I thank God every day for his life and that we didn't take your advice. I highly recommend you don't push your outdated bias on other parents and pray to God that no one else gets similar test results back while in your care. The heartbreaking way you responded to this is part of our family's story forever. I recommend visiting https://www.jacksbasket.org/medical-providers for information on how to present correct and unbiased information to families. Oh, and the real kicker? I got a bill in the mail charging me my copay for that last visit that should have been a phone call. I had to pay for him to recommend aborting my child, for his outdated information that a life with Down syndrome is not a life worth living. Unbelievable. read more

, Newport Beach, CA 92663 This year I changed insurance from Kaiser to a PPO and I could not find a good OB/GYN. My sister and my niece recommend Dr. Catalin Marinescu with OBGYNCare to me and I was a little hesitant, because I never had a male physician but I gave him a chance. It was like an angel lead me to him. Dr. Marinescu is the most sweetest , kindest and patient doctor I've ever met. He listens to you and is very compassion. I would give him 10 stars if I could. He has impressive surgical experience. I was diagnosed with a large uterine fibroid and within one month I had it removed with robotic laparoscopic myomectomy.He helped make this process happen fast. I am now recovering and hopefully on the right path to having a baby. Thank God for Dr. Marinescu. We need more doctors like him. I just want to emphasize his patience,compassionate, and his kindness .I appreciated the girls in office as well. Betty and Bri, they are very kind and professional. I love this office. Lucy Espinoza -Pinto read more

Dr. Marinescu is THE BEST!!! He delivered my 2 children via C-section who are now 2 years and 6 weeks old. My first was unplanned as I failed to dilate and my second was planned. I knew with my second pregnancy that my delivery would be smooth as Dr. Marinescu did an outstanding job with my first C-section. He even covered my first scar! I wasn't nervous at all as I knew I'd be in good hands. I always feel a sense of relief when I see Dr. Marinescu and am incredibly grateful that he was my OB during my pregnancy journey. A friend of mine, a former nurse who had worked with Dr. Marinescu, had also recommended him due to his expertise and skill. Dr. Marinescu never comes off as arrogant or pompous, or pushes his own agenda like some other OBs I've met. His staff are also amazing. They are so nice and friendly and patient. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Marinescu - my husband and I recommend him to the highest degree and will miss him! read more

If someone considering surgery for endometrioma or fibroid and looking for a doctor, I highly recommend Dr. Marinescu. He and his team are great. I had been suffering from an ovarian cyst over 9cm and he suggested the surgery without hesitation and he was very confident on the robotic sugrgery while most obgyn doctors are hesitant, due to lack of experience and or knowledge, but he saved my ovaries! I am about 3month after the surgery i dont have any discomfort and pain like before. I wish i could have met Dr.Marinescu earlier about this cyst. But im so glad i had the surgery with Dr.Marinescu. Also, his team is for friendly and has lots of knowledge like their doctor. One of his team, Bri, is really helpful and knowledgeable to answer my questions and scheduling my surgery as soon as possible. read more

Dr. Marinescu is my wife's OBGYN and delivered our first baby in April 2023. I would highly recommend him as he explained everything to us and took great care during the process, from the pregnancy through to the after-delivery care. Everything went very well, and I am confident that this doctor would have given her the best care possible if there had been any issues. Highly recommended and we are happy that Dr. Marinescu was there for us during this adventure, and we highly recommend him! read more

I've seen dr.Marinescu since 2015 starting as a regular routine check up. Both of my pregnancies were through him and both of the experiences were wonderful. He is reachable both through email or phone calls. When there's an emergency, you can call him at night as well. When you need an emergency appointment, they could squeeze it in for you. When I gave birth to my first born, the nurses at Hoag hospital even said he's one of the most caring OB there. And I agree. My son was born a little bit before midnight, and dr.Marinescu came back to check on us in the morning at around 8am. That was a Saturday morning. He also came back to check on us on Sunday morning before we left the hospital. I had problems with my second pregnancy. He was there to answer my questions and follow up on me every so often. I couldn't ask for more. When I gave birth to my second one on Sunday morning, he just had an emergency C-section at 4 AM. My son was born a little after 9am, and he was there to deliver him. Let's talk about the staff. They are AMAZING!! Always polite. Remember you and your family. The best team. Everytime when people ask for an OB GYN recommendation, this is the person who I'll always recommend. read more

My wife really enjoyed working with Dr. Perkins and delivering our baby at Hoag. Communication was always good even if I didn't like the answer I was given.

The hospital and their staff was also amazing and helpful. read more

*1,000 stars* I trust Dr. Marinescu 1000%!! He saved my life during my second pregnancy with emergency surgery, I had to have an emergency hysterectomy due to excessive bleeding that didn't stop. His expertise, demeanor and advocacy shine bright. The real life super hero! I am beyond grateful. I had two pregnancies both delivered at Hoag with Dr. Marinescu second pregnancy turned into an emergency on 11/30 since I had postpartum hemorrhaging and needed to have a hysterectomy to save my life, I could see and hear he did everything he could to save my uterus and avoid this the entire time. I did not have any fear I had complete trust in doctor Marinescu as I could hear him directing and redirecting other medical professionals beside him on what needed to be done to save me and being my best advocate. He knows exactly what to do in times of emergency, and that's when it matters most. If it wasn't for him being there I don't think I would be here. He jumped into action and turns into a lion to make sure he saves you. Dr. Marinescu is the reason I am alive today to enjoy my two boys (he both delivered ) and husband. He is beyond excellent in both general women's health and prenatal care, I have been a patient since 2017, during my women's checkups and prenatal care he always has a calm and caring bedside manner allows you to not be a walking ball of stress if you worry about the small things. He is also very responsive anytime I had a question he responds and it feels like you are his only patient. I don't know how he does it! Also if other specialist doctors need to get a hold of him while your pregnant he is very responsive in responding to them all. The ladies in the front office are also wonderful and always friendly and attentive, I always get seen upon arrival which is respectful of everyone's time. You are in great hands, he has a patient for life and I wouldn't trust anyone else. read more

5 stars is not enough to explain our gratitude for Dr. Marinescu and his team. From the first day we entered the office the team has been amazing. Every phone call, every note, every question and concern was taken care of right away and with care. Adriana and Esmeralda are amazing nurses- they are so patient and so kind. This was our first child so we were new to everything. And like any new Mom I was scared, anxious, and excited. The Dr. was so great at helping us through every situation. I can't explain in words how amazing our Dr. was during the pregnancy all the way leading up to the delivery. There is not one bad thing I can say about this team. We tried so hard for a natural delivery but i was not able to. I am so thankful that I was lucky enough to have Dr. Marinescu by our side. If your reading this and contemplating where to go- I would 100% recommend Dr. Marinescu to anyone! read more

Obgyn Care - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Newport Beach, California

I've been thinking about my appointment and my previous review and I don't think I was clear enough about just how uncomfortable I was during that appointment. Basically, he was so busy yelling at the other girl (he was obviously stressed and running late) that he didn't listen to me or answer questions. So one issue I had has gone unchecked. When my phone rang a week later and I saw the caller ID I knew it wasn't good and he just says, it's cancer. Then he was silent. He did not take charge of the situation at all when I was clearly stunned. He didn't say ok this is where you need to go and who you need to see. I had to ask everything. And then after he told me I had. questions and once again he brushed me off. I will never go back there and I hope one of his existing patients will have him read this. It's not my real name but from the details he should know who I'm talking about. But his is beyond an apology. I just won't go back. If he was running late or stressed ok, but I should not know. read more

Unfortunately, my girlfriend and I had a horrible experience with Dr. Marinescu. After a few visits with him, we decided to try out another doctor just to test out someone new. Marinescu refused to send over our medical records, and at our next appointment with him, he questioned my girlfriend why she would want to switch doctors, making her very uncomfortable. My girlfriend continued to go to him, while she was having horrible problems at work being discriminated by her employer for being pregnant. The stress from this was so bad she was throwing up and in pain most days. Dr. Marinescu refused to write her a note for being absent, and it cost my girlfriend her job. Now that she has no job and no insurance, she tried to go get MediCal so that she could have at least something. After many calls and attempts, Dr. Marinescu refused to give her the proof of pregnancy she needed to get MediCal. She is 6 months pregnant and has visited his office at least 8 times. Dr. Marinescu is not helpful and not understanding. Not to mention most of our appointments were less than 5 minutes of time with him. We will be finding a new doctor immediately. read more

Doctor Marinescu is a very kind, gentle, calming and an excellent physician. My surgery was on 4/10/23 at Hoag My stitches were small and healed in 1 week. I just had my 6 weeks post-op and everything looks good and scar blends in well and not noticeable at all. Very happy. read more

Terrible doctor. I scheduled an appointment online. When I arrived he had already retrieved some scans that had been ordered by my primary care doctor (I don't recall releasing those but ok), waltzed in (over 45 minutes after my appointment time) and told me I have no treatable gynecological conditions. Without speaking to me. Wow. Who diagnoses someone without a physical examination?? I've seen some bad doctors but this guy takes the cake. read more

Amazing staff and of course an amazing doctor! I was diagnosed with cholestasis during my first trimester and Dr. Marinescu was on top of it and really saved my daughters life! We appreciate everyone at Obgyn Care! read more

I can't express how happy and great full I am for what Dr Marinescu and his amazing stuff have done for caring me and my baby throughout my pregnancy!! I will definitely choose home again for my second pregnancy! Dr Marinescu is very patient, every time he will ask and answer my questions till I understand. Also I had thyroid and diabetes problems during my pregnancy, and Dr Marinescu noticed those problems very quickly and helped me to deal them efficiently. I can tell he truly cares your health even after your pregnancy, because he always told me even my blood sugar back to normal range after birth I still should be careful for what I'm eating and doing more exercise. The offices (both in Irvine and Newport) are always clean and the waiting time is always around 10 minutes! Parking is never a problem for both offices! After all, worlds can't describe how I'm satisfied and grateful to Dr Marinescu and his stuff, for bringing my baby safely to this beautiful world! Big THANK YOU to you all! read more

This Dr. was seen for an opinion and exam. When I was being examined I had a list of questions for a medical condition I have. His response was "I hope you don't have too many questions I have other patients to see." I had an appliance he took out that was left lying on the table. It was never put back in. I had a lubricating jelly all over the area getting on my cloths when I dressed. Other Doctors would put the appliance back in and wipe of the jelly off my body. His accent was so strong that I had trouble even understanding even what he was saying. The staff was very nice. Maybe a guy like this man would be better off working where he doesn't have to deal with patients. read more
