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'd never heard of Heather Cugini before last Sunday, July 1. My husband, 3 boys, and I were just starting our vaca when our little girl decided she would join us. Yikes! Nearly 2 hrs away from my OB, I knew we couldn't make it on time. So, we rushed to Southeast. Cugini and her staff were AMAZING. I could've hugged Cugini for, not only helping someone she didn't know but for how comfortable I felt with her. She was exactly the kind of doc I love. I'd recommend her, as well as use her again!

I cannot say enough wonderful things Dr. Heather Cugini and her staff. She is an exceptional doctor with a fantastic balance of medical expertise and bedside manner. Recently, I had a scare and she got me right in to be seen as well as getting me scheduled for an immediate ultrasound. She truly cares about her patients well-being. I feel blessed to have her as my OBGYN.

I have seen her for years for different reasons and refuse to see anyone else! She helped my husband and I conceive our son and then delivered him. I always knew everything that was going on and she was very forward with telling you what you asked.

I prefer a female gynecologist and during my annual visit, Dr. Cugini came in with a male assistant. He was not introduced nor his role explained. She didn't ask me if it was okay before bringing him into the room and when I asked him to step out during the physical exam, she apologized to him. During my exam, I expressed several concerns. She said she would check into it and then never got back to me. I ended up leaving the practice.
