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.

Best of the Best!!!
I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr. McCreary! I am so grateful that I go to have her as my doctor. She has been there for all 3 of my C-Sections. One of them being twin girls. She is so knowledgeable, caring and meticulous. Even the medical staff at Providence had nothing but excellent things to say about her and what an amazing job she does.

God- complex
I had a very unpleasant experience with a doctor at AWC- the lack of empathy and bedside manner I received is flooring, especially in light of my diagnosis. She was clearly offended I sought out another practitioners opinion and consultation for a treatment option AWC does not provide and instead of having a conversation and providing education on the treatment options I had questions about she berated me and told me I was acting crazy. I will be gathering up my medical file and going to another doctor who will take the time to be caring and understanding and walk through this health challenge with me. I’m sure there are other amazing doctors at AWC and I know this is one persons opinion but I learned today that you need to be a strong advocate for yourself and I don’t need a doctor who has a god-complex.

I’ve seen Dr. McCreary for the last six years and I couldn’t have asked for a better provider. Dr. McCreary is one of the most kind and caring people I’ve ever met, and she always takes the time to listen to my questions and concerns. She has been my provider for the last three of my pregnancies, and delivered my last baby. She was able to collect an adequate amount of cord blood for storage, even though conditions weren’t favorable for collecting due to the lack of blood in the umbilical cord.

Dr McCreary recently performed two surgeries for me. She and her staff went above and beyond. From scheduling my appointments to the exceptional care after surgery, I greatly appreciate their compassion and competency. I would highly recommend her for any of your gynecological needs.

Dr. McCreary was amazingly helpful throughout my wife's pregnancy. She is incredibly competent with high risk patients, and her bedside manner could not be more pleasant.
