I had nothing but good experiences with her. My only complaint is that the billing department here isn't exactly as good as they could be, but eventually I got everything fixed--and Dr. Jolly's care didn't change because of any of it although of course my visit had to be reexamined to adjust the bill. Bottom line: Dara Jolly rocks. Just review your bills carefully, as the yin-yang of the world means that Dr. Jolly's awesomeness has to be balanced out somehow, such as in the billing department.

I love how she took the time to get to know you and ask and answer questions that you may have. This should be a common practice for all doctors but some do not value your time or always in a rush to see you which is shameful. I just wanted to thank Dr. Boerwinkle for always taking the time to explain things to me and not rushing through our appointment and showing that she truly cares about your well being. Also her wonderful assistant Misha which always puts a smile on my face when we get to chat which she takes my vitals and do the check in and such. It's nice to be valued and feel your in a good hands of the professionals that are assisting you. This two are a perfect duo. Hopeful they don't leave and stay for a while.

Dr Chang is amazing. That's pretty much the beginning, middle and end of it, but in the spirit of…read moreyelp I'll do some further explaining. I recently had to start looking for a new OBGYN due to a move out of state and it made me realize how much I'm going to miss going to Dr Chang. Dr Chang was my first OB ever and to say I was nervous about my first appointment is an understatement. I felt pretty ridiculous for being so nervous after that appointment. I've never felt so comfortable before in a doctor's office. I immediately felt welcomed and they treated me as if I had been a patient for years. The entire staff is SO nice and you can tell they all genuinely care about the patients. I can't remember the receptionists name but she was always super quick to check me in and just a very warm person which helps a lot when you are as nervous as I was. Garland (sp?) is also fantastic. I had quite a few issues with my birth control (my body is extra picky) and had to change several times and Garland was always very quick to return my phone calls and help me with any questions. The appointments themselves are pretty quick, but Dr Chang is really patient and took the time to answer all of my questions. I didn't have many my first visit but Dr Chang seemed to realize I was nervous and talked about a lot of things I probably should have asked about. I was ready with questions on my second visit and she had very thorough answers and really wanted to make sure I understood everything. I completely agree with the reviewer who made the comment about hanging out - she has such an easy going and friendly demeanor!! If you are anywhere near Des Moines and need to find an OBGYN stop looking and go see Dr Chang.

Do not go to this doctor. Or this hospital. Dr. Chang blatantly threatened my life had I allowed…read moreher to do surgery on me. My daughter was a witness and this organization has done NOTHING but lie and cover themselves. She is arrognant, and dehumanized me and my daughter. She silenced us when we had questions- told us to table them. Per my 16 year old daughter - she had never been so emotionally violated by a healthcare provider. VMFH has to answer for what she almost did - which was end my life on surgery. And then cover it up with lies by not documenting what they were told. DO NOT WORK WITH THIS DOCTOR!!!

I was a hysterectomy patient shortly before the quarantine, and I'm on the fence about Valley…read moreWomen's Clinic. Dealing with the front desk staff made me just weary. Once you're in their system, everything - appointment scheduling, reminders, instructions - is done online through MyChart, which I love, and which is good, since phone skills aren't their thing, as I found on the few occasions when immediate contact was necessary. Apparently scheduling is a challenge as well, since I was called more than once to have an appointment rearranged - not due to deliveries or emergencies, but because "You were scheduled on a day when the doctor will be at the hospital." (That might not be a direct quote, but it's pretty close.) There was a battery of tests that I needed before surgery, which the doctor forgot to issue orders for... So the (incredibly wonderful and competent!) Star Clinic was none too happy to see me the day before surgery to rush tests that should have been done two weeks prior. Medication errors were made after surgery, giving me and the poor nurses at the hospital quite a rough night. Three weeks after surgery, I was dealing with terrible menopausal symptoms, which I had been told to expect, and that hormone therapy was always an option. Upon reporting my hot flashes, fatigue, and near constant crying, the surgeon suddenly decided that I didn't need estrogen to deal with menopausal symptoms, just Effexor. (After a complete hysterectomy, mind you.) And while I was summoned to the office to discuss these issues, my final post-op checkup two weeks later was cancelled and I was released to work without an actual physical examination "due to the quarantine." (I understand, I'm taking the lockdown seriously... But both events took place while while the Shelter In Place order was in effect, and the work release seemed far more important to me!) I won't say there were no positives. The surgery itself went well. The medical assistants are top notch - they answered all my questions completely and gave helpful tips. And my understanding is that the clinic is a wonderful place to be if you are going to have a baby, which nearly all of the other patients were. So maybe they're just better with pregnancy than with the other end of the spectrum! I hope so. Good luck... But get to your appointment at least 20 minutes early, because their parking situation is quite limited, and you may be in for a walk!

This office is clearly very…read moreunderstaffed - if you are a new OB patient, there are no appointments available until you're 12 weeks+ along (some providers did not have availability until 14+ weeks which, at that point, they should just be marked as unavailable/not taking new patients). Whatever provider you see for your first appointment is the one you're stuck with all pregnancy (I was told I'd need to "ask permission" to switch). I was told there are no same/next day/urgent appointments available at all, and if I was having any concerns before my 12 week (!!) appointment to "just go to the ER, but there's nothing anyone can do about a miscarriage that early" (except.. tell you if symptoms you're experiencing are likely a miscarriage, as it's emotional agony to be bleeding and not sure if it's going to get better or worse..) When I pointed out how expensive and unnecessary that is the person on the phone just said "well, we can't help you in the office." So, if you have a miscarriage, you will miscarry alone because they don't have the capacity to care for you. I had an amazing birth experience at Valley in 2020 and it's depressing that this clinic is the only option left since Associated Valley moved to Swedish. I did have a good experience with Amy Steers, though we only chatted through MyChart - she seems very caring.

This is hard to leave a review without being totally open to criticism because of my story but…read moreoverall, I was really scared and I was going back and forth between this clinic and planned parenthood, ultimately I decided here based on the financial person I spoke to on the phone being so dang helpful and kind. The whole experience wonderful and everyone was so gentle and kind and supportive of your choice, I didn't feel any judgement or uncomfortable feeling, I felt i could ask anything. They took really good care of me through out everything and helped me through my emotions. Hugs, talks, everything I needed while I cried. I just wish my partner was allowed in but I understand their precautions. Thank you to everyone there that really made me feel at ease during this whole process.

There was talk of me rescheduling and never returning. It is with mixed emotions that I say that both Jackie ( the MA) and Dr Lewing were nothing short of ....I honestly can't think of an appropriate word. They both exhibited traits of genuine concern, empathy, a sense of humor when appropriate and a sympathetic word of encouragement when we were all parting ways. Dr Lewing was extremely educational, honest and straightforward with information.

If you are experiencing issues surrounding endometriosis, uterine fibroids or scar tissue or adhesions, and are not finding help at any providers in our state, please reach out to this surgeon, she literally saved my life when I thought I had to literally go out of state to get proper medical care. Dr. Olga Valieva sets the standard for what all doctors and surgeons in our country should be, which is empathetic , medically up-to-date with critical thinking , able to explain medical issues and plans to the patient with such clarity and simplicity of information and she treats every one of her patients as though they are one of her family members. She embodies what we have lost in our medical industry and we need more people like her Who are willing to do the work to get down to the core medical issue of their patients regardless if it is a rare or difficult case and educate the patient on preventative care afterwards And embody the respect and understanding of the heavy responsibility of being a doctor . She took time looking at my complicated medical record, She was empathetic and attentive before and after my surgery, and ensured that all my questions were answered at such a vulnerable, scary time of surgery. This doctor did a precise skilled and fabulous job on my surgery more than I was ever hoping for. Thank you Dr. Valieva for changing so many lives with your hard work and dedication to your patients.
