Women First

I love this office. I have been going here for years. I have seen all the Dr’s there– when you are pregnant they have you meet with all the Dr’s because you wont know who is on call when it’s time to deliver. Dr. Giordano delivered my daughter. My regular OBGYN is Dr. Gleixner. Love him– he makes you feel 100% comfortable and he’s hilarious.
They have added two new Dr’s. which I had the pleasure of meeting, not under the best circumstances as I suffered a miscarriage and they were the one’s on call– both very sweet and took the time to make me feel calm and explain everything that was going on to me. Without a doubt I would recommend them again and again and again.

I’ve been coming here for MANY years. Due to my insurance and the hassle of finding a new gyno, i’ve always just dealt with any shortcomings. However, now that i’ve changed insurances i’m SO glad i’ll never have to go back there. The only good thing about this office are their nurses. They have always been so gentle and kind, and they could certainly teach these Dr. Giordano and Dr. Philbrick a thing or two. I wouldn’t send my worst enemy to these doctors. As women it is so important to speak up for ourselves and follow our intuition. If something is not right and you’re not being taken seriously, please keep looking elsewhere for help. You will find it.

I have a bad experience with my recent apointment with Dr.Bujewski.
My vist was scheduled for 2 pm on Tuesday and I was reminded twice by his office to come on time and have my insurance information ready. The day of actual visit i showed up 15 minutes early, gave his nurse my insurance card .5 minutes later she came up to inform me Dr Bujewski won’t be able to make aa appointment due to an ongoing surgery. I drove 26 miles one way just to find out he is no show and nobody can cover for him. Apparently my time is not valuable to this doctor and his stuff. What about common courtesy? Just a simple phone call letting me know doctor would not be available.
All I was told is to wait a couple oh hours without quarantee he will show up at all.
I quess I will be looking for a different doctor.

I’ve been going to this office for a few years now and have never had any problems. From the check in desk to the nurses, everyone is so friendly and open. I see Dr. Gleixner and he is by far the best doctor I’ve ever seen. The office has a comfortable environment and makes me feel at ease. It’s pretty easy to get in for an appointment and I love that they’re open late. I will be coming back here for as long as I can.

I have yet to really be able to share any experiences regarding billing/​follow up, but my first visit was enough to rave about Dr. Bujewski and the office staff. He has about the most professional and kind bedside manner I’ve ever experienced with any doctor, let alone an OBGYN. I came in after noticing some irregularities/​symptoms so it wasn’t an emergency visit but I did have a lot on my mind and he was completely patient with me, explained possible causes, logical tests/​exams needed, and possible treatments. The exam portion wasn’t uncomfortable at all and start to finish it was just a very informative and comforting visit. The office staff was friendly — they had me talk with a nurse when I called to address my immediate concerns and set clear expectations for my visit. Overall great experience!

Not sure what happened at the offfice, but In June I went for a 2^nd opinion to a different gyno and suddenly I am reciving collection notices from dr Bujewski office. The bills were sent to my old address used 14 years ago. I discovered 3 collection and 2 pending from this office !!! No one called me or no one checked my new address. They had my new address on file. In 21 years I never owned any money to this office or any offfice. I pay my bills ! I have BCBS PLATINIUM. I am so disappointed with their practices.
I will not go back there. I have a right to get 2^nd opinion.. Get a life people. Will never go back. or recomend again. !.

I have been coming to this practice for around 2 ½ years and I have never had a problem. Today I received a call stating that my birth control is not being covered anymore and I did not get a reason. After going through Caremark I learned that the authorization letter I received in the mail about two months ago was not taken care of. EVEN THOUGH I called the office as soon as I got the letter and they said it would be taken care of. So unprofessional.

Not liking Dr Giordano, she was more worried about why I didn’t call the cancel my last appointment, I couldn’t go, I WAS IN LABOR and DELIVERY, for pre term labor. SMH. The nurses threw out my urine sample, when I got home they called me, expecting me to go all the way back for another one, I said sure I am on my way. NOT WILL NEVER go to Women’s First again, they are all about MONEY, and their labor and delivery SUX!!!

Went to this practice for pre-​natal care and saw all the doctors at some point during my pregnancy. Dr. Bujewski always took the time to explain everything and overall is a good doctor. During one visit he took a call about another patient while in the exam room with me and my husband. After the call ended he proceeded to speak to me and my husband about the patient he took the phone call for. Needless to say I questioned his professionalism after that visit. I expect more from a doctor.
Dr. Gleixner was the on call doctor one night when I was in need of advice. I had been breastfeeding for a few months and had my first ever plugged duct. I was in a lot of pain when I finally decided to call the after hours number for some much needed help. When he returned my call he was curt. He acted as though he did not want to be bothered and really didn’t offer any help. It forever changed my opinion of this practice. He is very funny during office visits but apparently the humor shuts off after hours.

So,
Dr. Paul Gleixner, is the best doctor (gyno) I have had in my life. I feel like i can talk to him about every think even about my husband so cool and professional, I will highly recommend him to all of you ladies and bonus he is good looking too

I totally agree the preview person who reviewed. I have searched different places to find a good reliable doctor (gyno). Some were either too rough, or seem not to care or simply seemed not to know the answer to my questions. I looked in my insurance site and found Dr. Gleixner. I made an appointment and have been so happy since. I just gave birth to my first child and I’m so thankful I went through it with Dr. Gleixner. He will have answers to your questions and will not BS you. He will make you laugh as well. The other 2 Doctors (Dr. B and Giordanno) in the practice are also very nice and professional. I have and will continue to recommend this practice to all my girlfriends.

So, I feel kinda weird Unilocaling about my gyno, but, I just can’t help myself. Dr. Gleixner is absolutely the best gyno I’ve ever had. I got his name from a friend. He has turned out to be amazing. Let’s face it, going to the gyno is not exactly my idea of fun. Dr. Gleixner makes me feel really comfortable and makes it quick and painless. He’s really friendly and funny and not at all creepy (as some gynos can be). I can’t speak for the other doctors there because I’ve only gone to Dr. Gleixner, but I do think that the receptionist and nurse staff are all really friendly too and I’m always in and out of there in a jiffy. I’ve hardly ever had to wait long to see the doctor. Oh, and I always get free samples. The drive for me is a little far, but it’s totally worth the drive. I would go here even if I lived an hour away. Women First and Dr. Gleixner are THAT good. So, if they’re ever taking patients, and you’re looking for an awesome gyno, definitely give Dr. Gleixner a try. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
