Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

High risk identical twin pregnancy
From the get go Dr Reiter started saying that I should think about selective termination on my smaller twin because if he died it could leave my “healthy” twin at risk for brain damage, and that ruins families. After a couple weeks he took a bad reading on the UA Doppler and told me that my twins cord was completely reversed and he wouldn’t make it to 22 weeks gestation muck less the 27 to be born. He sent us over to Tx childrens and they were amazing and took their time doing my dopplers and growth and said that my baby was not in immediate danger. When I went back to Dr Reiter he was very unprofessional and basically walked out and said “goodluck” without letting me speak when I said I wanted to continue care at tx childrens. We made it to 28+3. After 71 days for my bigger twin and 98 days for my SFGR twin in nicu, my boys and HAPPY AND HEALTHY. We just hit 6 months and both boys are measuring ahead of their adjusted developmental age. No thanks to Dr Reiter, my boys are perfect.

Dr. Reiter delivered both of my children who are now 13 and 15. As a young first-time mother I was horrified when my pregnancy became high-risk and I was hospitalized and transferred from the care of my normal ob-gyn. I did not have an assigned doctor and was seen by whom ever was on-call. During the one month stay before delivering my daughter 9 weeks early, Dr. Reiter saw me several times during one of the most grave and uncertain times in my life. He was always kind, informative and compassionate and really took the time to hear me and talked to me, instead of at me, which was not my experience with some of his colleagues. He saved my life as he was the only doctor to pay attention to me when a reaction to a medication I was given caused a potential life-threatening electrolyte imbalance. After that experience, I saw him from day one with my second child and he took excellent care of us. His surgical skills are immaculate and he is as sharp as they come. Highly recommended!

We used doctor Reiter's services for special ultrasound and amnio. He was very professional, took time to give us explanations and answered all our questions. He has massive amount of experience and very reliable. We fully trusted him with amnio test, and all was flawless. Office nurses and assistants also are very good. Only reception ladies were far from pleasant, but it is not doctor's fault. Would totally recommend Dr. Reiter to a friend.
