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.

I'm currently pregnant and considered a high risk. I had a positive experience at this office. Due to having serve white coat due to high blood pressure issues. I as relieved that the doctor listened to my concerns and gave me different scenarios based on the questions I asked. I also did not feel rushed at all and that was important to me from my another office I went to.

Heard great things about this office, but apparently Dr. Khoury is the doctor to see at this practice. Dr. Nies was not only incompetent and completely wrong with what was going on with my twin pregnancy, but was also curt and uncaring. Had zero bedside manner or didn't even want to take the time to talk with me after the ultrasound as she said my pregnancy was not viable and one or both twins would not survive / result in a live birth. Never went back to this practice again. Thankfully to great care at VHC MFMs, my twins are now almost 6 years old.

Dr. Nies takes her time to listen and explain. She ensured that my concerns were addressed during my pregnancy and long stay at IFH. Her goal: a healthy mother and a healthy baby.

Dr. Nies is knowledgeable and takes the time to listen to you. She got me through a complicated pregnancy and now I have a healthy daughter. Her kind spirit makes it easier dealing with a high risk pregnancy. She is amazing.

As a pediatrician, I really appreciated her calm manner, her skill, and her kindness when I was scared during my complicated 4th pregnancy. I now have a healthy baby and am here and healthy myself. What more could you ask for?

Dr. Nies is one of the doctors I credit with making sure my baby survived a complicated pregnancy. I found her highly skilled and she took my concerns into consideration when making decisions for delivery. Would see her again!

Highly skilled! I can't vouch for her Dr.'s office - I only see her on days when she's at Inova's Women's hospital. Will do everything to get your baby to term.
