In patients' words

— UCSF Health Patient Review"She interrupted me multiple times and it felt like I was rushed. She was late to my appointment by over 15 mins"
— UCSF Health Patient Review"It's true, you don't have a dedicated OB. You are seen by a team of doctors and it basically changes every single time... I find that they are very good at conveying information between providers and they are also very good about listening to patient concerns."
