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.

Dr. Wells is smart, talented, kind, and respectful
She respected my wife's decision to have a natural & unmedicated birth. Dr. Wells was patient, kind, knowledgeable, and calm under pressure.

Dr Wells is amazing. I’m sooo sad to have her move away. She truly takes the time to listen to you, make you feel comfortable, and support you. She really seems like she cares about her patients and I’m so thankful for that. She held my hand through some of the toughest moments and I wish everyone could have a doctor like Dr. Wells. I will truly miss her being my OB!

I came to Dr. Wells due to a recommendation from a friend. She’s a true God-send. She was generous with her time, intentional with the questions she asked, and thoughtful about the answers she could give to my litany of questions. I wanted to learn more about my symptoms and Dr. Wells suggested a supplement, the titles of 3 books, an app, AND a podcast. She even did an exam and ordered some extra bloodwork so she could provide more thorough care. I felt seen, heard, and respected with Dr. Wells. I felt like a person who was trying to learn more than her body, and I will definitely be trusting my care with Dr. Wells again. PS - If you’re not familiar with the area, get there early. Dallas is tricky to navigate, but once I got situated, the office was easy to find.

Best experience
My name is Tiffany. I previously had a miscarriage before my now baby and Dr Wells made me feel so comfortable, seen, and heard throughout the whole pregnancy and birth! She made me less anxious and I always left her office with a smile on my face. I genuinely wish we could be friends in real life. She’s amazing

Dr. Wells has been my ObGyn during my first pregnancy and I've been very happy with her treatment to date. She is always willing to spend a few extra minutes speaking with me and shows genuine interest at any questions I have. I've never once felt dismissed or rushed by her. She is also very good at feeling friendly, but professional at the same time. This is extremely important given the personal nature of the topics you have to speak with an ObGyn about.

While Dr. Wells is a nice person, our experience with her was not optimal and ended quite horribly when she botched our son's circumcision. In total, my wife experienced close enough contractions to go to the hospital on five different visits. Dr. Wells was never available in person for any of these including 24 hours of labor and eventual cesarean. After the birth of our son, my wife experienced dangerous sepsis from infection due to prolonged labor. Our baby was also in the 90th percentile for size and my wife is a small person and could not naturally birth our son. This is important because Dr. Wells is all about natural birthing. The on-call residents did their job well even though Wells could not see us. When Dr. Wells finally saw us out son was already two days old and has nothing helpful to say. For our son's circumcision, Wells was not confident enough to complete the procedure due to possible hypospadia. A urologist found this was a misdiagnosis and completed the procedure.

Dr.Wells is the best! She is very knowledgeable and personable. I’m expecting my first baby and I’m blessed to have her as my OB. She also experienced her first birth child this past year and having a doctor go through pregnancy with you is very rewarding. It honestly gave me an extra sense of comfort. I was very early in my pregnancy coming in as a new patient and of course she was later in her pregnancy and this made us the perfect match.

Amazingly skilled surgeon who is up to date on the latest robotics. Her bedside manner is great. My recovery time, due to her skill, was fast and I stopped pain medication after day 2 - was back to work in under 2 weeks. Her medical assistant, Bianca, is extremely responsive and her surgical team is top notch. Lower scores are due to the miserable attitude of their intake receptionists - really grumpy and unhelpful - worth withstanding for the stellar physicians and MEDICAL staff.

My appt. was at 10:00. I arrived at 9:45, checked the box that my info had changed. At 10:20 I asked how far behind the Dr was, and if they were going to ask for my insurance card. I was told they would get back to me. At 10:30, I asked AGAIN how much longer it would be and was told-they would 'check' , at this point they updated my info. After NO info as to when my 10:00 appointment would happen, at 10:45 I walked out! Thankfully, Dallas has many other professional options.

Dr. Dew is one of the rare treasures you find in a doctor. Not only is she easy to talk to, and very empathetic, she is extremely knowledgeable. The lower stars in the office category should not reflect her, or her abilities... She is worth dealing with an over booked office. She personally takes time to make you comfortable and make sure that you understand everything about your body, and your baby. If she could get 10 stars, she would deserve them.

Throughout my ENTIRE pregnancy she made sure that I was knowledgeable about what was going on with body as well as the baby. He and her assistant Sarah were SO SWEET. I enjoyed every visit....even when they had not too good news for me. I would recommend her to any soon to be.
