Gex Women’s Care

I’m very pleased with the service I received at Gex Women’s Care. I was seen by Olga who is the PA and she is wonderful. She has a very comforting demeanor, she listened very carefully to all my questions and concerns and was very knowledgeable in her answers. I thoroughly trust all her suggestions and decisions she makes regarding my care.
I would also like to commend Heather the Ultrasound Tech who is wonderful and has a very comforting demeanor as well. She made me feel so at ease and was a big help in getting me through the procedure. All techs should be as wonderful as her.
Lastly, I would like to commend Lisa at the front desk for being extremely helpful and patient. All of these ladies are superb in their positions and come highly recommended!

Dr Gex has been my OB/​GYN for years. He is amazing. I’ve referred several friends to him and they love him also. He’s caring and willing to answer any and all questions you have. I had a complicated pregnancy and he was always available to answer my questions and put my mind at ease.
His PA Olga is ok. Not my favorite but she genuinely cares and does well enough. It could be that I just prefer male doctors over women. It’s just a personal preference.

Dr. Gex is THE BEST DOCTOR I EVER HAD! I’m not even exaggerating a little bit.
This review is way overdue but I have to share. It’s lengthy, so brace yourself.
This was my first pregnancy and was very very nervous (who isn’t?). I originally was supposed to see another OBGYN in Las Vegas that was recommended through my insurance but her staff was horrible. Whomever was working at the front desk that day made me feel like I was a barnyard animal about to give birth. Instead of taking the appointment that they had to reschedule me when I arrived at the office – [because they couldn’t be professional and considerate by giving me a quick call before I had to drive from one end of town to the other] I went online and did more research and found Dr. Gex’s office. I did not look back. In fact, I wish he was my primary doctor. Hell, every doctor in the country should model after him.
When I called to schedule an appointment, the receptionist was very nice and understanding. She initially thought that I was coming in for a pap smear (I didn’t really tell her that I was pregnant) and explained that the next appointment available would be in May. It was February. Then when I told her that I was three months pregnant, she placed me on a brief hold and was able to schedule an appointment for the same week. Awesome.
The whole experience from speaking to the receptionist, the nurses and to Dr. Gex was very professional. My nurse Melissa was so polite and professional. She stated that If I ever needed anything or needed to get ahold of her that I was to call her at anytime. And she meant it! I know it is very common for folks in Vegas to make a lot of empty promises-​but not this office.
What really impressed me was an experience I had when I was in my own little waiting room. This was before I was to give blood and Melissa explained what was about to happen next, but for whatever reason I wasn’t paying close attention to what she have just said. I wasn’t sure that if I was supposed to go see the phlebotomist or if she was going to come get me when she was ready. Because I wasn’t sure what to do, I stuck my head out of the waiting room to scope it out. Another nurse that I have not met before told me that the phlebotomist was on her way to get me. I didn’t have to say a word to explain myself. That, right there impressed me. It seems like everyone down to the receptionist knows exactly what is going on in that office. I was so blown away.
With your first visit, they give you a well prepared specialized packet of what to do/​expect for every doctor visit. It also includes foods/​drinks to avoid, plus medicines recommended or not recommended to take while pregnant. That is brilliant! Before all my appointments, I would refer to the packet so I know what to expect. I was kind of a lightweight when it came to giving blood, so to know that that was what I was about to anticipate and when I needed to give blood on particular visits [meaning to eat a bigger breakfast before the appointment] – was amazing.
Dr. Gex is an amazing doctor. He has a very calm demeanor and never rushed you if you had any questions or concerns. He would explain things thoroughly, so you never left the office feeling unfulfilled with the answers you received. During one visit, we were waiting to see Dr. Gex. When he arrived, he apologized for the wait and noted that he was in the middle of a delivery. Totally understandable. Despite that he still had to go back for the delivery, he didn’t come off flustered and was very patient with me. Never rushed.
Dr. Gex did not deliver my baby due to the fact that I moved to Texas during my third trimester. I kinda regret that. The OBGYN I had in Texas was the complete opposite as Dr. Gex and just the basic professionalism you’d expect any doctor; especially the one I had in Texas (that’s for another review) was dismal.
I recommend any woman having a baby to go see Dr. Gex. Despite the fact that I was a ball of hormones just keeping it all together, I’m glad that he was part of my pregnancy experience.
Also note that I didn’t have the greatest insurance. He never treated me of less than a person due to what insurance plan I have, unlike some doctors out there do. Oh and P. S. don’t change doctors mid term. You won’t find anyone as good as him.

Dr. Gex is an amazing doctor! After my first child and an unsatisfactory experience, the second time around I wanted someone better and I found him!
He is very calm, reassuring, and knowledgeable. Each appointment he explains everything that is happening, and what to expect next. He has a very soothing bedside manner.
The office is nice and clean, and the staff is wonderful. They always answer the phones, and you are always taken care of promptly when you have appointments.

Ladies, please do me a favor and avoid this place… I don’t usually write reviews but I had to to save everyone’s trouble. After my obgyn move to Oregon, I was having hard time to find new one. I read reviews and decide to give this place a chance but I had bad experiences. Not even once, several issues. Their PA dr. Olga would see you so yes, it is easy to make an appointment. So if you need a quick fix, maybe this is the place you can go. Simple thing like getting antibiotics etc. But for you annual exam, please pick other decent doctors. I don’t know if Dr. Olga thought I’m damb and I don’t know anything about medication or the testing result but she straight up lie to my face. It’s about my personal issues so I can’t go into detail on here but I do a lot of research and I came to the conclusion that dr. Olga is not very knowledgeable about women problems. But good thing is now I’m very knowledgeable because I had to research on my own. I wasted so much time and emotion here and I was about to take the medication I don’t need in my body and risk my own body because of her lack of knowledge. Not to mention, she almost ruin the relationship between my boyfriend. She has no idea how to read blood test results. I went to a couple doctors after this but they are both appalled with her practice and comments made to me. They also told me I had abnormal Pap test result, but found out from other doctor it was normal. Dr. Olga suggested biopsy (very painful scary and expensive procedure (at least to me)). I couldn’t stop shaking after I heard the word «biopsy». It’s scary. Becuz they didn’t know how to read the test result and poor procedure after the result came in, I wasted so much emotion. I even asked the receptionist if I can see Dr Gex instead of PA dr. Olga but they told me that they work very closely and doesn’t make much difference. Please run!
Dr.olga, please study about doormat of viruses.
Please study the accuracy and difference of igg testing and igm testing. And General hsv-​1 knowledge. Please study difference between seroquel and SSRI. Please study papsmear testing and hpv testing and follow up procedure. Also basic hormonal changes in women’s monthly cycle, yes, progesterone start rising day 15 to day22 in 28days cycle. You told me there is no hormone changes 10 days before the period making it seem like I might have thyroid problems, which from the blood test I didn’t, which you totally disregard your assumption in next visit when we discussed blood sample result. I had to go ask another doctor.

I am coming to this practice for my pregnancy now. I tried another very popular and highly rated doctor close by and the wait time was outrageous. I waited for almost two hours and then the receptionist told us the doctor was still in a delivery and would be another 40 minutes.
Ummmm, no?
I called Dr. Gex’s office and the girl that answered was so nice and got me into their practice the next morning. I waited 15 minutes… maybe.
I’ve seen Olga, the NP and she is great and I have also had an ultrasound at 10 weeks with Heather. She has been the highlight so far. She was just the right amount of excited and was so reassuring with my lack of pregnancy symptoms and how the baby was developing during the ultrasound. My husband and I left beaming not only because we saw our little one for the first time but she made the whole experience wonderful.
I haven’t seen dr. Gex yet. I probably will during my second trimester but I am not bothered by it at all. I know he will probably not end up delivering my baby and I am okay with that… It beats the feeling of pure anger having waited hours to be seen by the first obgyn. I know regardless, that I am being looked after and that my baby will be delivered by an experienced obgyn.

I have been a patient of Dr. Gex for years now. My mom works at the adjoining hospital to his office, and she highly recommended him. Unfortunately I didn’t find him early enough to see him as an OB, so I’ve always seen him as my gynecologist. I would not hesitate to see him as an OB either though.
Dr. Gex is kind, calm, and very knowledgeable. If he ever has any doubts, he plays things on the safe side and does not hesitate to obtain further diagnostic testing, which I appreciate. I feel like he is not only a doctor, but a partner in my health care. He truly takes the time to listen, and weighs my concerns and opinions equally to his own.
The staff here is wonderful as well. Very kind, helpful, and prompt. I have never waited for an appointment for more than 20 minutes tops, and even waiting that long is rare.
It can be a challenge to find quality, consistent, healthcare that you can trust, but I have definitely found it in Dr. Gex.

Didn’t wait too long after arriving to be seen, Dr Gex is great so is his PA Olga easy to talk to and listen to everything and help answer all your questions. In fact the whole staff over all was wonderful from making an appointment and the waiting room to being seen by the Doctor and PA. Definitely a place I would refer.

Sitting here for the first time waiting to be seen by the doctor. My appointment is at 1:30 I arrived around 1:20 because I am a new patient and was told will need time to fill out paper work.
I was in the doctors office no longer than an hour an a half before I was in and out. The doctor was pretty nice and understanding and didn’t make the situation uncomfortable.
I was then booked another appointment for two weeks for a follow up and that’s basically how my first visit went!!!

Staff have no idea what they are doing. Total disaster every time. Expect to be seen 3 hours after your appointment with no explanation. No calls returned by Brenda. Cannot pick up ex needed. Total mess!

I am about 7 months along with my first baby and Dr Gex’s office has been great. The office staff is always very pleasant and the head nurse always willing to take my call and answer my many questions, very patient and always returns calls never has made me have to call back wondering when I’ll get my answers. I only had to see his assistant Olga once in the beginning of my pregnancy, she was very nice and attentive to my questions/​concerns, thereafter I see Dr Gex and he is a great doctor in my opinion. Straightforward with necessary information and friendly. He is the VP of WHASN. I can’t say anything about billing dept because I currently have full coverage Medicaid so I don’t ever have to deal with billing. Also Dr Gex is [currently] contracted with both hpn and amerigroup Medicaid insurances which is great so if I ever decide to switch for whatever reason I won’t have to worry about losing him as my OBGYN. His office is also VERY close to the 2 hospitals that he delivers at [san martin & southern hills] so that gives me a bit of peace of mind that he is usually very close by in the case of emergency, etc. I have and will continue to refer him to others looking for an OBGYN because he has been the best OBGYN I have dealt with in Las Vegas!

As a business owner myself I typically don’t write negative reviews about companies unless they are exceptionally poor. We don’t have health insurance so I just paid cash.(160) first visit. Went in because my fiancé was feeling pain. After quick 5min look and papsmear she said we were good to go. Went to the front desk and they said come back in a week n half. That’s all. Your good to go. So day after I called back to see if everything was correct. They were surprised that the office didn’t tell us we needed to get blood work and a sonogram done before my meeting with doctor. So we went and got blood work and did sonogram with them. Then when our date came to meet with doctor. We met with dr Olga. She said she had endometriosis. And needed surgery. And we needed to meet with doctor Gex a week later to talk about the surgery… now we are gonna be 3 weeks into it just to talk with doctor and still dealing with pain all day. Everyday. Now he pain is worse and because of their slow pace we ask to get our file. Which they say. Ok. But at .60 a page and will take 7 – 10 days. At this point I’m officially PISSED OFF!!! I told them they needed to get the file ready ASAP. Because we might go overseas to take care of it since American health care is so bad. Now I guess the office people have told the office manager that I we pissed. So after telling her everything all she did was speed up the paperwork. Which they still charged me to get copies of. And when we asked if we could air travel. They said they would need to do another sonogram to tell us. I asked how long for the result. They said a week
Bottom line. about $ 450 dollars to get diagnosed. Solution: surgery cost Unknown. Time frame unknown. Time it took to get to this point 3 – 3.5 weeks.
If your in pain don’t go here.
Oh and by the way. Went elsewhere. Got. Sonogram done on the spot and gave us pics on the spot. Diagnosing situation and alternatives other then surgery. Doc gave us a whole crap load more info. And on the spot.
Good luck ladies. Hope you find this helpful. God speed.

Olga the Nurse Practitioner is wonderful! Super easy to talk to and she took the time to really talk to me. Glad I decided to go back after learning Jennifer left.

Disappointed in the follow up. Went in with some symptoms and the doc (female) explained that it could either be one or the other and she would find out from the official test.
They call me with the result and tell me they sent the prescription to my pharmacy. I pick it up and start the therapy, only to be called the day after «oh the diagnosis was actually x so we gave you the wrong prescription. I am sending the correct one again»
I am like wtf ?
From the sound of her voice, it looks like the medical assistant screwed it up but still …

Had an appt with both Jennifer Powers and Dr. Gex. Both were very personable, knowledgeable and pleasant. I received a follow-​up call from Dr. Gex, which almost never happens these days. I also felt that both took their time to explain procedures and answer questions. Overall, a great experience and I would highly recommend the practice!

Today I was notified by Dr. Gex office that they were refusing me as a patient. I missed an appointment that wasn’t scheduled on my terms, and actually left town right after for work. When I returned I was told he dropped me, (at 33 weeks) because I didn’t respond in the last 12 days. I continued to explain I was out of town working a tradeshow, and my hours were crazy. I had never missed an appointment before and couldn’t believe the inconsideration and the coldness I was getting. The only reason the appointment was missed because they scheduled it not me. It was the only appointment they had available when I was there for my routine appointment, and after waiting 2 hours I was told he had a delivery which is understandable. I was only offered 2 appointment options which neither worked with my schedule. I expressed that to the receptionist, however she showed little concern. So now I am only 5 weeks away with a breech baby and no one will take me because I am so far along. So to all those Unilocalers who may hit a bump in the road, and miss 1 appointment be careful. They are not a caring, and considerate office. THEY WILL DROP YOU AND LEAVE YOU STRANDED IN SPITE OF ANY CIRCUMSTANCES! They have no sincere regard for you or your situation whatsoever.

Dr. Gex delivered both of my sons. I have no complaints about any aspect of the office staff or Dr. Gex, I refer everyone to this office and everyone of my family and friends love him just as much as I do.

Dr. Gex was recommended to me by 6 friends and family, he definitely lived up to my expectations. During My whole pregnancy he was soothing and caring he takes the time to listen and gives his honest opinions and not pushing them on you like others. his office staff is amazing. Once I was admitted into the hospital it’s such a relief seeing your Doctor calm and collective he just made the whole experience easy breezy. Gex has to be one of the best in the business, despite him being a saints fan! Haha :)

Staff is knowledgable and very friendly. Dr. Gex always explains everything and never rushes through my appointment time. He made sure he did everything he could before resulting to my unplanned c-​section. I always felt at ease and never met a more patient man!

When I got pregnant, I didn’t even search for any doctors, I just automatically picked Dr. Gex. He delivered my nephew 5 months prior, and my sister told me how much she loved the staff.
I’m glad I trusted my sister’s word. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Gex is quite possibly my favorite doctor in the world. He always has a smile and a few jokes. He and his staff make you feel at home with them.
When progress on my labor stalled and we had to do a c-​section, Dr. Gex asked me many times how I was doing, and if I was okay. It’s that kind of compassion that makes him a great doctor… Not to mention my scar is straight and tiny!
We love Gex Women’s Care!
