The doctor had no bedside manner and it felt like I was just a number on his list. EVERYONE else fantastic including the APRN. She took time and got down to the nitty gritty understanding that this felt extremely excessive. I was not and am never comfortable with Pap smears and any exam like it so 5 people in a room looking a my vagina because I was on my period at the time my blood was drawn was terrible. The doc had no sympathy for why I was struggling to relax. "What are we doing here?" Was his question to me. Like I was an inconvenience to him. 0/10 Would never recommend him.

Dr Andikyan is always in a hurry. I wanted to have a conversation with him and ask questions about after surgery care but I guess he was behind due to just telling me to stand up pull my pants down to look at the incisions, told me it looks great and handed me a card to rate his performance. He might be a great DR. But lacking on bedside manners and empathy.

I can't really answer these questions because they did not do anything as far as my medical issues reason being because I am pregnant. All they recommended was genetic testing and coming back 6 weeks postpartum.They knew I was pregnant beforehand so I'm not sure what was the point of me driving an hour and half for basically nothing. I would have much rather them have said hey let's wait until after you give birth so we can get a better look at what is going on from the beginning. The entire staff was very kind and friendly the entire time I was there but I just felt like it was a waste of time being there to just do nothing.

Dr Andikyan & his Nurse Practitioner were spectacular. Exceeded my expectations. They were compassionate, listened to me, addressed all my concerns. Amazing team

I felt like I was dismissed without any real help
8/6/2025
The doctor was cold in demeanor, never smiled, non-comforting as the procedure started hurting me. I've had this procedure before by a different physician and it never hurt like this. Worst gynecological experience. The PA that questioned me about medical history prior to doctor coming in was excellent. Thorough, compassionate, professional.

The Dr. Seemed very busy and rushed the whole apt. I was there for my final post op apt, and because I wasn't complaining of any pain or discomfort he didnt feel the need to do my exam. I felt rushed.
