I went to the Adams Morgan location (being renovated now I believe) year ago when I lost my job and…read moreinsurance. Not only are the staff and doctors invested in actually speaking to you...their records system was computerized YEARS before most insurance based doctor's offices. I visited COH many times after I had lost my job and insurance. They always call you with results and they are happy to explain your options for next steps. And on top of all of that, the clinic is very clean, with a smallish waiting area and friendly to children! You can go here with insurance or without and work with paying on a sliding scale related to your income!

I had to come back and add an update for this place. I received a phone call with my test results…read morelast week. The results came much faster than I expected, which was great. I asked for my results to be emailed to me and was told that this was not possible. Why in 2016 can all business not be done over email, especially if a patient requests that? I asked if it was available over the patient portal app. The answer was yes and that I would be sent an email with a link and setup instructions. Great! Well, a week went by and I never got the email. So I called again this morning and was told to wait an hour to allow an email to be re-sent. I asked if the results could also just be mailed to my house. I was told no, that normally they print the results out for patients to come and pick up. Are you kidding me? I agreed to wait the hour for the email. About 5 minutes later, I received a phone call from them saying that they would in fact mail my results and would send a message to someone else to give me access to the patient portal. Then the kicker was the woman stated "this is not my job or responsibility, but I will help you." I WANTED TO SCREAM. When on earth did that become an appropriate thing to say? I am a paying patient who just wants to lay eyes on her own damn test results! It doesn't matter what your actual position or responsibility is - if you took it upon yourself to call a patient, you ought be prepared to serve the patient. If it wasn't such a hassle to switch providers with my insurance company, I would take my business elsewhere without a doubt!

I was a patient at this facility for several months and I regularly saw Ms. Verner. Unfortunately,…read moreMs Verner left after a couple months, which really sucked for me because she was an angel on Earth and helped me tremendously. In the process of looking for a new provider at the same facility, I reached out to the office several times. I completely understand they are busy and may forget to call back, but I reached out several times, within several months with no luck. When I called, the front desk staff repeatedly told me that there were no providers that matched my preference (woman of color with availability on Fridays). I was fine to wait for as long as I had to, and they kept assuring me that they had new providers coming in. Basically, they ghosted me. They had me re-fill out all the paperwork, and they never replied to my emails to schedule an appointment. The last time I reached out to them was on September 2025. I do not recommend this facility.

FHBC is such a fantastic establishment. I know what you're thinking: "How on earth can an OBGYN be…read morefantastic? I dread my annual appointment!" Trust me when I say that the midwives and doctors at FHBC will make the experience much less uncomfortable than it might normally be. They're a very hippy-dippy establishment, so if that's not your thing, you may want to go elsewhere. They won't shove their ideas down your throat, but they do advocate childbirth in a birth center instead of hospital (duh...they are a birth center), breast feeding, and just about all other au-natural techniques there are. They really emphasize that their doors are open to anyone from any walk of life. They're warm and welcoming, and don't pass judgments. If you're not pregnant (I'm not) you can still use their services for your annual exam and, just recently, for primary care for the whole family (including men!). As far as annual exams go, they make sure the actual exam portion of the visit is very short. You won't be on that exam table for ages (thank god!). Instead of the drawn-out process I've experienced at other OBGYNs, they take a good 15 minutes before the exam to get to know you as a person (whoa! shocker!) and then about 2 minutes for the exam. Then they send you on your way! I highly recommend FHBC because every single staff member you interact with is friendly, and they really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. you can't ask for a better experience.

A friend of mine discovered at 48 that she was pregnant. It was not planned and she did not take…read morethe news well. She was high risk, uncomfortable and a single mom - which meant she could not take off. The only time she smiled the whole 10 months was when she talked about her OB who she lovingly referred to as "The Mahalati". I told myself if I ever got pregnant I'd give her a call. Then - I didn't get pregnant - couldn't get pregnant. Her name and number lingered in my phone for months...years until one day BAM. Early 40's the stork finally came. Dr. Mahalati is extremely professional and personable at the same time. She has knowledge and a relationship with the primo hospital in our area and believe me - they all know her there. They better, because "The Mahalati" is a force of nature. Your baby will be healthy - you will be healthy. Put yourself in her hands and sit back and watch her work. She made my high risk, uncomfortable pregnancy a simple matter. She will make your pregnancy a simple matter. She doesn't hold grudges. She doesn't make it complicated, she does her job. She does it well. I would send my best friend to her, I would send my sister to her, I would send my cousins to her. I'm sending you to her. If you're pregnant, you need to see "The Mahalati". It will be the first and best decision you can make for yourself and your new baby - period.

I've been about a handful of times now, every time I get sick and need help because riding it out is no longer an option. I really love this place. Its a hidden gem for me, rather than going to Medstar in Hyattsville where they warn you about wait times ahead of your appt. Customer service is always great, Nurses are friendly. It's a one man operation, Dr. Lartevi. Sometimes you get lucky and theres no wait, sometimes you will wait, but not too long. It just depends how many people are there due to walk ins. It's still worth it to me because it feels a bit personal, rather than a white box you sit and wait in. There are personal touches to the office that makes it feel a little homey. Theres always good music playing and a cute record collection in the waiting room w record players and dvd's. Bob Ross on the tv. I always have great experience with Dr.Lartevi, good bedside manner, will talk to you with respect, always listens and he always says, "if you dont feel better after ____, call me".....Recently one of the numbers I had for this office wasnt working and I thought the office shut down, I got SO SAD, thats how much I know I love this place.

We have had the most incredible experience with Tay and the Momager Co. We hired them for our birth…read moreand postpartum based on community recommendations from our local LGBTQ+ parenting community, and were especially compelled by their understanding of the additional factors impacting us as an interracial queer couple. Our experience has been above & beyond what we could have imagined, and we are now recommending them to everyone we know - in particular other LGBTQ and BIPOC parents who could use an extra ally in the process who "just gets it" without any explanation needed. From the beginning, Tay offered really thorough support and communication throughout our pregnancy (we hired her sometime towards the end of the first trimester). We had several sessions supporting us as a couple in preparing not only materially and physically for the transitions into birth and parenthood, but also emotionally and mentally/spiritually. Some in person and some over the phone. Highly recommend hiring them early in the pregnancy (or even for conception care!) if you are able. As the birth approached, Tay was supportive of our process and decisions, even as we grappled with anxieties and fears arising from past birth-related traumas, overwhelm and decision making as we interfaced with the medical system, and chose a hospital further out from us (and them!) than was ideal. When we landed in the hospital a couple times prior to labor beginning, she coached us through our options and helped us self advocate with doctors and make decisions that felt right to us. During the birth, Tay helped us make wise decisions about when to wait at home, and once we were at the hospital and labor picked up (we chose an induction date due to some risk factors and past birth experiences) she was extremely supportive, driving the hour and a half to the hospital when we were ready and coaching us skillfully through our labor and delivery. I truly believe that our labor went as smoothly and quickly as it did, and was a positive experience, due in large part to her support and skill as a provider. She is equal parts protective bulldog when necessary, nurturing force reminding you of your own strength, and quick intuitive decision maker helping to ease and support the body's process as it does what it knows how to do. Post-birth, Tay has continued to be a supportive and trusted presence, helping us navigate decisions and processing our experience. We are still in the postpartum period and truly cannot recommend her services more highly. We cannot imagine our experience without her, and would recommend her to anyone without reservation! And in particular to other queer, gender expansive, interracial, and/or BIPOC couples and parents.

Hired Taja as our doula. She came across as being extremely compassionate and thoughtful. We…read morebrought up wanting a doula who would come early because my wife had trouble getting into active labor in our first birth and then it moved fast and our previous midwife missed the birth. She agreed and brought up that our toddler could be a distraction and that my wife and I "need to be in our love bubble." Additionally suggested we hire her daughter to look after our son in early labor, which we did. We brought up that she was just one stop down on the metro and that was assuring to us. She also asked my wife if she was the type of person that worried about inconveniencing people and she said "yes". Come labor post water breaking, we called our Taja and she had an entirely different tone. She said she was an hour away and asked just about contraction timing. Mentioning that she was an hour out after explicitly asking my wife if she was the type of person who had difficulty inconveniencing people seemed mean and a stark contrast to the thoughtfulness she projected. She never listened through a contraction and concluded it was too early, In stark contrast our incredible midwives from Sage Midwifery were already present and stayed until birth. Taja checked via text or phone call maybe two or three more times, but remained an hour out and continued to just ask for contraction timing, nothing else. This seemed irrelevant because we already said we wanted her early and her daughter was to look after our toddler. My wife ended up having a very similar experience to her first birth, active labor was very fast and at that point we gave up on trying to drag Taja into a birth we felt she didn't want to participate in. We hired her late in my wife's pregnancy so we only had a couple of appointments, and she never offered to give us any of our money back.

I called Woman to Woman just to find that they wouldn't be able to see me for another 3 weeks. I scheduled the appointment but I ended up going to an Urgent Care facility and a Planned Parenthood just so that I could be seen right away. Both experiences were very poor. So you can imagine my relief at meeting a very thorough and pleasant Dr. Toni Mason-Jones. The moment I stepped into Woman to Woman, the receptionist greeted me very pleasantly. It is a quaint little office in a large building full of other offices. It was difficult to find at first because there's nothing advertising that Women to Women is in that building. But it's in there. The office is quiet and clean. The service is speedy and attentive. And everyone I came in contact with, as the name suggests, is a woman! My bad experiences still in my head, I felt nervous. But Dr. Mason-Jones' spirit immediately calmed me. She asked me the typical, invasive questions but she did so in a way that I felt comfortable telling the truth. It felt like I was talking to a girlfriend who really cared. She was thorough but direct--careful not to waste my time or hers doing procedures that I'd already had done. I will be returning!

In the 4 years I was going, new people coming and going, but having to phone over and over to get a refill was the final straw. Again, Dr. Jones is a fab OB/GYN, but there is no way refills should not be phoned in.
