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.

Dr. Walsh is one of the best, most empathetic doctors I have ever had. She listens to me and HEARS what I am saying and what my needs are. Her medical skills are fantastic! I recommend her to my friends and clients.

I really wanted to like Dr Walsh. It was very apparent that her style did not match what I needed. She is very technical and intelligent, but that doesn’t exactly give comfort when you have concerns. Things went downhill quickly in 2020. The office sat on test results for one week that I was anxiously waiting for and they never called me about them. I had to call to get them. I was not given a fair warning about her being on leave for a month and she basically told me I was on my own until she got back. This was two weeks beforehand. I was charged a late fee on a bill that I had not been invoiced on the month before. One of the last times I was there I saw the nurse I had just worked with and an office employee giggling and gossiping while obviously looking at my chart. They both jumped when they saw I was still there looking at them! The one person who showed me any ounce of comfort and understanding was the nurse practitioner. I wish I could have just made appointments with her!

I haven’t been to an OB in five years due to a bad experience. Dr. Walsh is kind and very informative. She made me feel at ease and actually gave me hope that my PCOS could be managed. I would r recommend her to anyone.

I switched to Dr. Walsh in March of 2017 and found out I was pregnant in April of 2017. My pregnancy was very complicated (low progesterone, low-lying placenta at first, possible genetic defect, and a 2 vessel cord) and Dr. Walsh walked me through each step and explained everything in great detail, but never got excited or ahead of herself which helped me tremendously. Dr. Walsh referred me to the maternal fetal health center at Mercy due to being high risk and worked alongside the doctors there to ensure that I had a healthy baby and safe delivery. I was induced at 38 weeks due to a poor blood flow study and Dr. Walsh did everything to try to ensure that I had a natural birth. My body wasn't doing well with being induced and was putting stress on my baby so I eventually had a C-section with the on-call dr. Dr. Walsh came to check on me and baby on her day off before heading out of town. I could not recommend her more.

Dr. Walsh was a fantastic obstetrician and I looked forward to each of my visits with her. My delivery was a great experience and Dr. Walsh was not only a great doctor but felt like a friend!

First time moms beware of her and I regret to going her for my pregnancy. Go to her, if you want to end up getting a C- section even for a small complication. she will hides the facts and never discusses the options with you until the last moment and scares you to go for C- section. she hid the fact that our baby was breech at the 35th week ultra sound and the follow up appointments and we didn't know this until on the day of labor when the other doctor told us in the labor room.

I thought Dr. Walsh was a very good OB, but didn't feel comfortable around her to ask questions which was a bummer. I felt at times she didn't like my opinions, but answered them with a plethora of knowledge which I liked. It all depends on how technical you like your doctors to be. We just weren't a good fit and am switching doctors, but I know she will fit for others.

Dr. Walsh is an excellent doctor and treated me with the utmost care and concern during my first pregnancy and delivery. She was incredibly attentive and wonderful to me throughout, and I always felt very at ease in her office and during delivery. Her office staff was very kind and welcoming as well. She took such great care of my baby and I, and I trusted her skills and expertise in handling everything from prenatal care to delivery to postpartum care. I highly highly recommend Dr. Walsh.

I had a horrible experience with Dr Walsh during my pregnancy & ended up switching OB's midway through. She doesn't take any concerns you have seriously. I was very concerned with ongoing cramping/tightness that I was experiencing. Instead of further investigating what the issue could be, she blew me off and said "it's just normal round ligament cramping". I'm glad I listened to my body because upon switching OB's, she discovered on my first visit that I was experiencing pre term labor.
