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.

Total hysterectomy
I have been seeing Dr Amy Bingman through all 4 my children and not to mention she now sees 2 of my 3 daughters for their birth control needs. Has been apart of all of the woman in my family's reproductive systems needs. She has a up beat, always smiling, and fun personality. She can calm your fears, and reassure you that whatever the choice you choose will be the right one for you. She is an amazing Dr and the best at what she does, and that's fixing the problem so you can feel your best again.only a week ago she performed a total hysterectomy on me, and I have no words to express how much I appreciate what she had done for me.Thank you Amy for fixing me!!

I have been seeing Dr Bingaman for a while and must say I am lucky to have her as my Dr! She is kind and has always listened to everything I said in her caring way! She performed a total laparoscopic hysterectomy almost a year ago and she was very patient with my fears. The surgery was easier than all the pain I've had over the years and I wish I had listened to her and had it done sooner! I feel like a new person with a new life after that and I fully credit that to Dr Bingaman's skills as a Dr and a surgeon! I truly can't thank her enough!

Genuine, kind, caring, knowledgeable provider!! I recently went through the devastating experience of losing my baby. It was my first pregnancy...I was shattered and heartbroken. I was mostly terrified of not knowing when the miscarriage would occur, where I would be and how I would handle it. Amy’s team got me in for surgery the day after we learned that we had lost our baby. This was my first surgery and one of the worst times in my life. Amy explained everything, made us understand it wasn’t

I was referred to Dr. Amy by my primary physician, who told me I needed some hormone tests after having an IUD removed. I called right away and couldn't get an appointment for 4 months. I waited, only to hear Dr. Amy say at my appointment that because I'm getting mostly regular periods and haven't yet tried for a baby, there's no sense in testing. My symptoms and primary care physician say otherwise--it was like because I wasn't pregnant, Dr. Amy didn't care about me. I'm not going to return.

Had a really bad experience in 2016, that led to unnecessary medical tests and STRESS. I have since moved to a new doctor. Once you go to a doctor who shows their care and concern, it makes a world of difference.

I love the doctor, hate the office. I recently found out I was pregnant and was experiencing some troubling symptoms. After leaving a message, a nurse got in touch with me and told me I'm "probably not pregnant". I know they deal with this every day, but they just came off really cold. In the past they gave me a "summary" of my visit (for checkups), which was a paper describing major health issues they never alerted me to in-person. This office is unorganized and too busy to give adequate care.

The office is inflexible when it comes to scheduling appointments and Dr. Amy was unresponsive to my concerns. I previously had a miscarriage so I had a lot of concerns with my pregnancy. I called the office 3 times to speak to Dr. Amy's nurse and was told someone for Dr. Amy's team would call me back. They never called me back. Finding a new provider when you are already pregnant is very stressful and I wouldn't want anyone else to experience it. If you want personalized care, go elsewhere.
