In patients' words

"My favorite of the OBs at GCMC. He listens to his patients and does not push unnecessary medical interventions, he respects his patients’ wishes. He has a good bedside manner and speaks with you clearly and without medical jargon."

— Healthgrades review for Dr. John McAndrew

"She is the most friendly, non-intimidating primary I have had my entire life. She is very thorough & addresses your every concern and doesn’t limit you to one complaint per visit."

— Healthgrades review for Lisa Cramm, CNP

"Although it's not hard to get an appointment they're always overbooked and wait times range from 1.5 - 2 hrs on average. The staff is rude and there aren't enough of them to handle the workload."

— Vitals review for Dr. Effat Banikarim

"I recommend him 100% over any OB-GYN in Alamogordo NM. Caring, compassionate, extremely gentle. He listens to everything all your concerns."

— Healthgrades review for Dr. Norman Lindley
