In patients' words

"The words that came to mind were “factory farm.” I used to have an amazing OB... but she retired... My attempts to find another good, independent OB in the East Bay were not successful, unfortunately."

Berkeley Parents Network

"I am in my third trimester and have been seeing Dr. Madhavan at Sutter Health's Milvia location my whole pregnancy. I am very happy with my care... She emails me her interpretation of my test results within a few hours... It does seem like all of the doctors are very busy at Sutter Health."
