My wife and I have been going here for our first pregnancy and the experience the past few months has been fantastic. The entire staff has been a pleasure to work with, clear on communication for next steps (testing, follow ups, etc), pregnancy progress / milestones, etc. Dr / patient care has been great as well, we've met with a number of doctors on staff and the experience has been great with all of them so far. All are very knowledgeable, professional and communicate clearly. Never felt pressured into making any decisions around testing or pre screening and only given information to help make an informed decision. Office visits never feel rushed like we sometimes have with our primary care doctors, all nurses and doctors have been happy to answer as many questions as we have and provide direct access to them in case of any emergencies or concerns. Brenda in the Rocky point location has been a shining star, turning what can sometimes be a nerve racking experience for a first pregnancy or expecting moms into an extremely comfortable and personable experience where my wife and I are always excited for our next visit and to see Brenda. Highly recommend this office for your pregnancy or OGBYN needs, and given the affiliation to Stony Brook, they offer a ton of great programs and specialization to ensure a smooth pregnancy experience.

She was the one getting loud with me first and requested that I send her and her staff cookies for 15 years of service. What a joke.

(Speaking from experience with the Port Jeff. location):…read moreWhen I had to have a procedure done, not only was my doctor super friendly and reassuring, but her nurse was amazing. The nurse checked-in with me multiple times, and I felt extremely comfortable right off the bat. She was also willing to answer questions without making me feel rushed - which can be difficult to do in such a busy office! Staff is so considerate and really takes the time to explain exactly what to expect for each procedure. They are very clear and informative, while also being personal and caring. Since I have had contact with two nurses, my doctor, a nurse practitioner, an ultrasound tech and the front desk/administrative staff, I feel I have interacted with enough staff to promise you, you are in great hands here! Even over the phone, I never feel rushed - they are willing to do whatever it takes to not only put you at ease and answer questions, but to do whatever is necessary for your health. The environment is extremely clean and I have never waited more than about 10 minutes. The only reason I did not rate a full 5 stars is because it is difficult to get an appointment and, in my experience, was once told the schedule wasn't "out yet" for the next month. The schedule, once "out," seems to fill very quickly (but I hear this is the case with most OBGYNs anyway). I also asked for a copy of test results, specifically not to be mailed and I would instead pick it up, but it was mailed anyway, although they agreed to call me for pick-up. They do not hand you your results/information requested right away and I had to wait for my request to be processed which was a little frustrating as someone who likes to keep on top of all my own medical documents. These are small complaints in comparison to the excellent level of care - 100% recommend them to anyone!

I also asked for testing and I was told no several times because they felt it was unnecessary. They also mess up my prescriptions every single time as well. It's really so disrespectful how they treat patients. It is truly upsetting and disruptive to any patient's life especially when it is an extremely important form of health care. It is frustrating, exhausting, and upsetting. Even more so when there is an issue every single time.

The entire staff is kind, supportive, and professional. I was surprised to see some negative reviews, as my experience has always been nothing but positive. Dr. Gerwits is thorough, knowledgeable, and compassionate. It's unfortunate when online comments are made without full context, as they can unfairly affect someone's reputation. For what it's worth, I want anyone reading this to know that I trust her and her team completely. Joanne Lifavi

They are nothing short of rude. The final straw for me was last month, I'm sitting in the waiting room and a couple nurses are behind the desk, talking very loudly. Everyone in the waiting room can hear them with ease. They begin saying horrific things like, "I hate doing the old ladies..like I want to look at your old gross vag***??!" I was absolutely appalled. It was so sad to see numerous older women in the waiting room cross their legs and look down in shame, obviously embarrassed now. Usually the front desk isn't enough to taint my opinion so much, but these ladies make me dread going there. Please, go ANYWHERE else.

If you have an issue, they take you in right away and everybody is so pleasant from the front desk to the doctor. She is a genius, Ivy League medical school. Yale grad.

I am undergoing IVF and very glad I found someone like her. Finding a good gynecologist OB/GYN is far in view between these days. Even the staff is very on top of things.
