She talked through every one of my concerns and ultimately helped me achieve the exact birth plan I had hoped for. I believe I healed very quickly because of some of her decisions. Her office, though, is very, very challenging to work with. That said (and maybe sadly), it started getting a little easier to work with them once the $300 office fee started getting charged and patients started leaving. Still, they were very challenging and often lacked compassion for other women I saw who were struggling with very serious issues. But in any event, almost all OB back offices suck, so you might as well go with Dr. Barnes. She is the absolute best.

We've been with this clinic for almost 2 yrs now and couldn't be happier for finding them!…read more From our first appointment scheduling to our first visit, it's been a great experience for my husband and I. Getting a hold of someone whenever I have questions have never been easier. Not only do they pickup the phone call in a timely manner, but I was never in a longer hold. A few instances happened when they were busy, but that's understandable. I am always able to message them through my portal. Anything urgent, they are on top of it. Luckily I only had 2 events when this happened. From getting my labs to any test I needed, this clinic had been a breeze! I've called several other clinics before finding out about FOWH and the rest either never pickup or they're so disorganized and unhelpful during a phone consult. The sonographers that we've had were always kind, timely and helpful. We have had some questions and they're so wonderful in addressing them. Biggest shoutout to our Dr. Mitri. He is empathetic, highly knowledgeable and is just a good human being. He pays attention to every detail, he doesn't miss any question we have and he's very good at responding to our out-of-office messages/questions. His bedside manners are exceptional. He is respectful, has a good sense of humor and does his job really well. We're so happy to be a patient at FOWH and we appreciate the staff for being great! We look forward to every visit we have.

I then had to pay for an HSG and a hysteroscopy to assess the damage. I am indeed missing my right fallopian tube. I was told they'd reimburse me for those, but I'd have to submit it through insurance. I can't bring myself to go through this process. So I'm posting my experience as a warning to other women. This botched procedure was performed on NYE of 2024, and I still have pain. I still feel intense anger when I think about how the doctor chuckled that I'd still be able to get pregnant through IVF when I was crying that I was worried I'd never be able to get pregnant again.

It was over before I even knew it and it didn't even feel the least bit uncomfortable. She will also perform an ultrasound to ensure that your ovaries and uterus are structurally sound and there's no underlying issues which is a nice touch, especially since you don't need to schedule another visit solely for this as it's done in office by Dr.Chang herself! I'm so glad to have found her - a good OBGYN that makes you feel safe and comfortable is so hard to find these days but Dr. Chang is proof that they still exist!

I'm very thankful Dr. Mitri has helped and delivered all three of my pregnancies. I recently became pregnant with my fourth child and by week 8 I was feeling off - I completely went from feeling good and happy to all of a sudden feeling grief/loss. I immediately messaged Dr. Mitri and he assisted me with a list of doctors that would help guide me through my depression. Unfortunately, my gut feeling was correct. On my 12 week ultrasound my baby was not developing well. He had a lot of abnormalities. Dr. Mitri gave me guidance on my pregnancy and referred me to a specialist. Sadly, at my 16 week ultrasound following my cvs negative results we noticed the baby did not have a heartbeat. Dr. Mitri was so compassionate and assisted me in coordinating with the hospital to getting me induced and delivering the baby.

I will caveat that perhaps your experience with this provider depends on the reason for your visit. For me, it was one and done with Dr. Fong, not in a good way. I met with Dr. Fong about 2 years ago for women's health as I was looking for a new gynecologist and also going through egg freezing at the time. I had been going to Fair Oaks Women's Health already and was switching providers because my previous provider left. I was older (around 40 years old) and had been diagnosed with low ovarian reserve (DOR). During my meeting with Dr. Fong, her comments made me feel like all of my fertility problems were due to my older age. I understand there is some truth to that, but she did not offer any other explanations. I came away feeling like "oh, what did you expect because you're old," and I felt shamed for being older. Granted, she never said that directly to me, but that was the tone. I felt dismissed during my appointment. She also made me feel like I should not expect to freeze too many eggs because of my DOR. While I understood it would be difficult and not to have high expectations, I was still hoping for ways to improve my egg freezing results. She gave me little to no hope. Well, I ended up going to acupuncture and taking herbs (which she did say could be helpful) and (after only freezing 5 eggs total across two rounds at age 39) froze 6 more eggs at age 41 in one cycle. Even worse, I got some bloodwork done, and it came back that my TSH was unusually low although my free T4 was fine. She offered no explanation and diagnosed me with sub clinical hyperthyroidism when I have no history of thyroid problems. In fact, I started seeing a Chinese medicine doctor for my fertility issues. I happened to mention my hyperthyroidism diagnosis, and he immediately asked me what supplements I was taking. It turns out that I was taking too many (didn't know that was possible!). He recommended supplements to cut out, and sure enough, my thyroid functioning returned to normal. I should mention that I specifically listed all of my supplements on my appointment form with Dr. Fong because I knew I was taking quite a few for fertility. It was particularly sad because I was excited to have a doctor with a similar ethnic background and came away very disappointed. I have fortunately since found another provider at FOWH, but I did not return for a while after such a negative experience. She seems to be good as an OB, but based on my experience, I would not recommend her to anyone no matter what the reason for their visit.
