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.

Great OBGYN and office staff
I went to Dr. Pugliese after researching OBGYNs who had experience with high risk pregnancies, as I had just had a stillborn and a pre-term delivery. We did a consultation with her and she referred us to an amazing MFM, developed a plan I was comfortable with and less than two years later we welcomed our baby boy. Her and her staff were amazing and much better than my previous OB’s office. I felt so taken care of and finally having a full term pregnancy was priceless to our family. I never felt rushed and they always welcome questions. I wouldn’t want to be with anyone else.

Three strikes and she's out
I can't say much nice about Dr. Pugliese or her nurse. When I ask questions, I get curt responses. The nurse has failed twice to call in my prescription, and did not apologize for not getting it right. They have had their three strikes, and I will be looking for another doctor.

Beware!
I have had her as a doctor for two years. She is absolutely terrible! She rushed each appointment! The entire appointment with her is less than 5 minutes. She brushes off questions or concerns you may have. Both exams with her came back abnormal. The first she told me not to worry about and did not do a follow up exam. The second exam she did perform another test, but hardly explained anything. She said the results were not cancerous so do not worry about it. I also asked for birth control and she prescribed one. I had a horrible reaction to it. I was told to wait 6 months to a year to let my body adjust. Absolutely unbelievable! Stay away from this doctor.

Loved my experience with Dr. Pugliese over the past 3 years. Wait times can be tough, but it is generally a painless visit and the staff is very friendly and compassionate! Recently moved out of state and had to get a new doctor. After my first visit, I can already tell Dr. New will not compare to Dr. Pugliese!

She is excellent!! she has great bed side manner , makes you feel comfortable and takes her time. Not a fan on how the office bills. I came to them around June July and towards the end of pregnancy they would charge me $400 every visit. Mind you thats like 2 to 3 visit monthly and at the very end every week till you are do. Then the next year the sent me a huge check. Ridiculous!

She is not pleasant and no bedside manners. On each occasion waited well over an hour to be seen... I myself am a working professional and have respect for others time. Switched to another obgyn and was much happier throughout my pregnancy.

I felt very rushed by Dr. Pugliese. I am well-versed in women's health, and I work in health administration for women's services, so I know the components that make up a well-woman exam. Dr. Pugliese did not check my ovaries nor did she do a thorough check of my breasts during the breast exam portion of my visit. When I mentioned how uncomfortable I was, she ignored me and moved quickly through the exam. Dr. Pugliese also seemed uncomfortable, which made me even more uncomfortable

Ridiculously long wait times. I had to leave after waiting 2 hours and 15 minutes and not seeing a Doctor. Beyond rude and unprofessional.

I love this doctor and this practice and would be happy to recommend them to anyone. I switched to them for the pregnancy of my first child and was thrilled with the experience that I had. Very hands on and very caring. I'm now seeing them for my second pregnancy and still feel just as happy.
