Dr. Callison is the BEST OBGYN in Alabama in my opinion. I have been using her since 2016 and she has helped me lose weight and get my hormones on track. She is a really great doctor to use if you have PCOS, she will get you right for sure. I moved from the area about 3 years ago and I make this 2-3 hour drive a few times a year because I refuse to get another OBGYN. She listens, she respects my wishes, and she does what is best for me based on my history and past experiences with things. She is a very nice and friendly doctor that makes things easy to understand and helps me out a great amount. They are always there when I call and need something or am having an issue. Overall, I will use her and her practice until I move too far away to or she retires. read more

I was recommend to Dr Callison by a family member. The only advice I have is to RUN !!! this is lady is crazy. She is very unprofessional, she does not listen to your concerns and if you dare to not take her recommendation or advice, she will ask you to leave and terminate your care immediately. I am a 34 yr old with irregular bleeding we did try birth control to decrease some of the bleeding however the placement of the Nexplanon (inserted by her staff) was causing issues so I made an appointment to try and get the issue corrected .. once there I was told that I needed to get a hysterectomy and "just call it a day". refusing to remove the Nexplanon or fix it. I advised her that I still wanted the option to have children in the future and wanted to go over more opt avail. She then stormed out the room and advised me that was my only option. She then and asked me to leave after i called her rude and unprofessional. she terminated my care with her !!! read more

I waited a few days to write this review to make sure emotion wasn't fueling anything here. Sharon Callison was completely unprofessional, but in the end did me a favor. I found this provider through Aetna's website (my health insurance provider), I should have seen the "red flag" when trying to schedule an appointment I couldn't get through to a live person by phone. Either I could "continue to hold" or "leave a message" and let someone call me back. I kept going and holding on the phone because I needed to get a doctor finally, after moving to AL a year ago I hadn't found one yet. May 26th I made an appointment for June 11th with Callison. The night before my appointment date I went on to Aetna's website to write down the address. I hadn't heard anything from Callison's office which was strange to me, my dentist sends several reminders. I show up to the address found on Aetna's website about 15-20 minutes prior to my appointment time. There's a paper sign on the door stating the office had moved. WHAT!?!!? I tried calling Callison's office to let them know I'm on my way. Nope, either continue to hold or leave a message?!? I type in the new address into my gps and I'm lost. It's now 5 minutes before my appointment. I finally look on another gps map through another app on my Smartphone (as I frantically leave a message for their office that I am lost, please help! No answer on appointment line or nurse line, maybe if I would have said I was a physician calling someone would have picked up if I punched that option)...... I finally show up at the office 8 minutes after my appointment and the front desk lady shows no sympathy... basically says "oh yeah, we moved offices back in October" And the response to no one answering the phone she says that someone should be there, maybe the lines were buys because they had just opened?!?! She apparently has no clue because I had the same experience making the appointment and calling for help. It would be nice to COMMUNICATE this new location to your NEW PATIENT. The front desk lady then asks me if I received the text message with the check-in info... well, I'm guessing if I would have received that information I would NOT have went to the wrong address?!? Sigh.... Frustrating. So.... I answer the 100 check-in questions, hand the iPAD back to the front desk lady and sit down.... Wait... wait... wait... it's now an hour past my scheduled appointment time. I ask the front desk lady if I've been skipped or are they running an hour late normally. She says she checked me in at 9:22... basically because their lack of communication I am punished.... An hour and ten minutes after my scheduled appointment time and I'm finally taken back to see Callison.... They get my weight, I pee in a cup... one nurse was actually calming, apologetic and tells me the text message thing just started two weeks ago. Okay......I'm calmer now.... The nurse then gets the "doctor." I can't even call Sharon Callison a doctor. The nurse goes out to get Sharon. Sharon comes back with two other nurses... three of them and one of me. Callison asks me why I'm there and about 5-6 questions about my breast cancer, what year, what city and what stage......I answer her questions to the best of my knowledge and express to her the issues with lack of COMMUNICATION with her office. Apparently she didn't feel like she needed to apologize or explain anything. She terminated the relationship. Like I said, she did me a favor..... but wow, what? She then proceeds to ask the nurse to "escort her out the back door." Huh? I really didn't understand. As Sharon is writing on a post-it note "Madison County Medical Society" I am thinking she's giving me a place to contact to file a complaint about her if I really felt "wronged" by the events. Nope. I guess she thought I was a low-income person looking for state medical care. Wouldn't I search Aetna's website to find a different provider seeing as that was my insurance provider? Really? Maybe it's a race thing... I do have tanned skin because I'm mixed.... I ask Sharon what I did wrong and she replied that I was "hostile." I really have no clue what I did or said that made her react that way. She did me a favor. But thank God I didn't need to get a prescription or have a major issue going on... waiting 2 weeks for this lady to just cancel and terminate the relationship because I spoke my mind. She could have at least given me the referral to the oncologist so I could get a check-up of my breast cancer. She asked me about 5 questions regarding my cancer before she even mentioned terminating the relationship. Waste of time. read more

I established with Dr. Callison nearly a year ago. I was planning my second pregnancy and was in search of an OB contracted with Crestwood instead of Huntsville. I have always heard super mixed reviews, but decided to give her a try. I had been trying to get pregnant for a while with no luck, and also made her aware of some serious pain that I had been experiencing since being off of birth control. I never asked for pain medication, ibuprofen was just fine but I knew the pain wasn't normal (it was worse than being in labor). Her response "Womanhood sucks doesn't it? Keep having sex with your husband, anytime he wants...and wear a thong!!" YES, exact words from this doctor. Not once did she express any concerns about my pain or any interest in trying to explore the reason for it. Fast-forward to today, I am 5 days post-op from laparoscopy with Dr. Davenport, a fertility specialist. I made an appointment with him myself after I was disregarded by Callison entirely. From the moment I met him, his goal was to figure out why I was in so much pain, which he said was NOT normal and "womanhood" shouldn't cause that much pain. Come to find out, I was covered up with endometriosis which was causing the horrific pain (and infertility) that I was experiencing since coming off of birth control. If you are looking for a doctor who is willing to help you explore a medical issue and find the resolution, Sharon Callison IS NOT IT. Her staff is wonderful and sweet, this is the only pro that I can list. read more

Guess it just goes to show you how different 2 peoples experiences can be. I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Callison. I never have a long wait (never more than 10 minutes) she is always friendly and seems to genuinely care about me. She always listens and answers questions. The reception staff and her personal nurses are amazing. I personally love that she is super laid back, thats the kind of physician I need is one who doesnt make me feel like I need to worry about every little thing. I trust her and cant wait to have her deliver my son next month. read more

Dr callison delivered my son. I will be back when I have another baby. She is wonderful!

She came highly recommended to me by several people but I want to shout from the mountains not to have your baby with this OBGYN office. Dr. Callison doesn't like questions of any kind. She pretty much told my husband and I that she's the doctor, she went to medical school, so we should just trust her and let her do her job without questions or choices. I felt she kept encouraging a c-section, which was the last thing I wanted. I ended up having one in the end at her decision, which I regret now. While in the hospital, one of the other docs in her office yelled at my mother for asking about my condition, saying that she was too busy to answer my mom's questions. And as discussed in my birth plan, I didn't want any extra people in the room when I was in labor or surgery but as it turned out, there were two pharmaceutical salesmen in the room during my c-section! I'm afraid they saw everything! I don't know if she thought I wouldn't know they were there or what, but I was so upset when I found out. They were trying out a new product on me during my c-section but none of this was discussed with me at any time. read more

I love Dr. Callison, her CRNP Chrissy, and RN Maggie. I've been a patient over a decade and wouldn't go anywhere else. She's seen me through widely varied life phases and figured out answers to things other doctors (male) just dismissed. The practice has grown greatly over the years, and that does tend to have growing pains in my experience, but I have never felt I've gotten anything but excellent care from Dr. Callison. I love her personality and have never felt rushed when it's my turn. We lived elsewhere for the birth of my first child, but I am so thankful she was my doctor for the second. The experiences were so markedly different that I recommend her to everyone I know. read more

Dr. Callison came highly recommended to me too. I had my first child with her, and it was a horrible and horrendous experience that left my daughter permantely disabled. What's more is Huntsville Hospital discharged us within 48 hrs, and when we had to return through the emergency room, they claimed we never gave birth there. Once my daughter was a little older (6 weeks), we began intense therapy and started a law suit against the hospital and Dr. Callison. At the therapy group we met so many children who had been hurt during the birth process by and at the same hospital, and some the same doctor. During the law suit discovery on Dr. Callison's past had been made, and she had injured a child and mother during birth so severely she was almost discharged from school. Our law suit never came to fruition due to the hospital never producing the documents the court requested. What's more Dr. Callison did not have to brutally birth my child the way it happened and the hospital could have provided a c-section. She called for c-section team for 21 minutes and they never came. When things got dire several nurses literally jumped on me and pushed with their knees and feet to force my child out of me. When my baby was born her right arm was broken, her clavicle broken, her head scalped, and the entire right side f her body paralyzed. My own ribs were broken as well. During this time the nurses and Dr. C had a huge argument right there in front of me. The whole thing was video taped and I have written Dr. C many times to review that tape so she can be grounded in reality as to what happened. My daughter is now 12 and she still has Horner syndrome and Erb's palsy (when she actually arrived she had no heart beat for 11 minutes). She is now old enough to ask me over and over how she was born and why is she the way she is. I did not raise her to hate the doctors or hospital. I always tell her it was an accident. But the truth is Dr. Callison panicked and the hospital didn't provide the right support for the doctor or me. Also the whole birthing plan that Dr Callison went over and over again went completely out the window, and I was forced to do a birth plan I didn't want. When I spoke up and my husband at the time spoke up we were shot down. The worst part for me was days later when I confronted the doctor on what happened, she lied and took up for the hospital. All options to sue is solely about money. I have no real recourse except to write this review. My hope is that Dr. Callison would change, and she would employ better birthing techniques and change procedures at the hospital. But they haven't changed and she hasn't changed. Do not use this doctor for helping you give birth! I have forgiven but I have never forgotten. It would be my personal wish, she would never be allowed to help women give birth ever again. I also wish that hospital would be help accountable for all the children and mothers they have injured in the past 14 years. read more

I can't discourage someone from going to her more. Particularly young women. She was the first gynecologist that I went to at 17 years old and it was horrific. I had never been sexually active, but was having medical problems. When I was scared, she was very callous in both her words and actions in such a sensitive area. I was told that I should have children before 30 and to be thankful for ANY pregnancy that I achieved, whether intentional or not, because my chances were slim. No teenager should be told that, at least on the first visit or when a full pelvic exam wasn't performed (she did surprise me by forcing her finger inside unexpectedly; I hurt for the next hour). There was no respect for me being young and sensitive. She was only a doctor trying to get in and out, without much patience for the emotional side of her job. I would like to point out that I have spoken with other young women who have had similar experiences with her, and have gone on to have perfectly fine annual exams. Similar to me, my friends hurt for the next hour or so and felt mistreated. read more
