"I have been there 3 times in 1 month because they didn't do what I asked for, you wasted all your time to visit and they never listen to you because they want to do their own thing."

— Birdeye Review

"My latest visit to this center was on 7/5/22. I was seen by Dr JOSEPH LURIO. While addressing some routine questions about contraception the doctor proceeded in trying to convince me my body was trying to have children... I felt so uncomfortable and disrespected as a woman I left before receiving treatment."

"The waiting room does tend to be a little bit backed up, but I don't care because the staff take their time with each patient. They're very thorough."
