Tina Koopersmith, MD

If you’re in the need of an ObGyn+Fertility expert, do not hesitate to seek out Dr Koopersmith. Been coming to her Sherman Oaks office for over 7 yrs,. She’s ethical, hardworking, and provides and explains all options clearly. She understands and is a wealth of knowledge in this field. And because of this, she does get booked. But her staff will not hesitate on getting you in if its a required visit due to your cycle, ovulation, etc. As for the staff, Maria, Natasha, are great! Clean, cozy office with plenty of parking.

Dr. Koopersmith was an amazing doctor to work with while going through fertility treatment. She understands the commitment you are making to the process and does not rush you through the cycle. I had a few hiccups before I could grow my eggs and have them implanted, but Dr. Koppersmith made sure each issue was addressed before moving on to the next step. Thanks to her patience and planning I am now expecting twins.
I think the hardest part of this process was having to leave the office and continue with another OB. I am so thankful for dr. Koopersmith and her wonderful office staff.

Great doctor! Been coming here for about 5 years. Very honest, caring and goes above and beyond. She does book up in advance so call in advance to make your appt but well worth it… Cute office in Sherman Oaks with plenty of parking. She is always full of advice and knowledge. Best Gyno I’ve ever had.

I am torn about this review. Dr. K is amazing. But she just changed her practice to «concierge» style. Which means that I have to pay an additional $ 350/​year to see her any other day than Wednesday, and she is booked out for months of Wednesday’s. My healthcare costs are already high with a chronic illness + deductible + copay. I am so disappointed, but this extra costs means I need to change physicians. Ultimately, she is great… if you can afford her.

The BEST in the biz!!! Been with her for over 10 years and she is the greatest!!!

I wish there were hundreds of more stars so I could give Dr. Koopersmith and her whole office all of them!
After several frustrating years of trying to get pregnant 2 of our friends recommended Dr. Koopersmith and seeing her was the best decision ever. David can be such a butt sometimes and is not always open to getting a doctor’s help but Dr. Koopersmith put him at ease about everything. She explained everything in a way that even I could understand all of the sciencey parts of our fertility issues and she gave us very good information and realistic percentages and options and was supportive in the choices we made about how we wanted to move forward at every step of the way. She always made sure to ask if we had any questions every time we saw her.
I freaked out a few times because of some unexpected bleeding but both times I was seen quickly at the last minute and everyone was so reassuring about it being normal and making sure I was ok. One time Dr. Koopersmith wasn’t there but the ultrasound technician Joan was great and she even sat in the waiting room with me until the room became available and was so nice and i just loved her too.
We are expecting not one but TWO beautiful babies at the end of this year and the only thing I am sad about is that we had to stop seeing Dr. Koopersmith at the end of my first trimester.

Had our consult with dr koopersmith and I love her. Intelligent, smart, classy, educated and helpful. Felt very comfortable with her

I love Dr. Koopersmith. She makes the visits very easy and comfortable. She is very knowledgable and gives good information. I couldn’t recommend any other Doctor.

Hi Dr K, yes would love to send you updated photos of Sasha, what Email do I send to?

I have been with Dr. Koopersmith for a decade and she has been the ONLY doctor I have not wanted to change as I am very selective about my doctors. She is genuinely concerned about her patient, thorough and has exceptional follow-​through. On numerous occassions she has called me directly to discuss test results and has gotten back to me in a timely manner whenever I have had pressing questions. Recently she performed a myomectomy I needed, and I could not have been in better hands. I have always valued and trusted her opinion and expertise and after this surgery, I am even more impressed by and grateful for, her extraordinary capacity as a doctor. Thank you Dr. Koopersmith!

I love Dr. Koopersmith! She is extremely patient and goes above and beyond her duties as a doctor. I’ve been having a hard time lately and Dr. Koopersmith took the time at my last visit to sit and talk with me. She truly cares about her patients well being.

When my husband and I were struggling with infertility, we found Dr Koopersmith. We are so thankful for her! Our first visit September of 2011 was in her office. She is very thorough in asking questions and takes lots of notes. She gave us straight forward information written out for us to follow. I had many follow up visits and each time I felt more reassured that we chose the right doctor because she is quick to answer my questions and she is very direct in her answers. One of the days I received a positive ovulation test, I called the after hours office and met her colleague at the office. This was on a Sunday morning! I got pregnant December of 2011 and graduated to an OB at 10weeks.
Unfortunately I had some insurance mix up, but they were able to spend the time to work with me to fix the problem.
Thank you Doctor Koopersmith and staff. My daughter is now a healthy 2yr old.

I have no clue what people with super negative reviews are writing about!!! Im 28 and have been seeing Koopersmith for about 4 years now and have nothing but good experiences. If you’re going to a doctor to get coddled, then maybe this office isn’t for you, but that being said, the staff and doctor are not cold, they are just doing the job and being efficient. Koopersmith is the most educated and informative doctor I’ve ever had, the reason i keep coming back. The exam is quick and easy, and afterwards she always talks to me about my health, lifestyle, and even talked to me for a while about mental health/​meditating etc. I learn something new every time i leave the office! Anyways,
If you want quick, concise, informative lady visits, go here!

I felt I had to write a review after seeing Dr. Koopersmith’s rating on this site. I am in my early thirties and have been seeing Dr. Koopersmith for over a decade now, as my regular OB/​GYN.
I can say unequivocally that Dr. Koopersmith is the best doctor I have ever encountered. She is knowledgeable, thorough, communicative, honest, and to the point — everything you need in a quality physician.
Examples of how incredible she is:
— She once called me from her personal cell phone, on the weekend, and left a message that started with, «I was looking through your file, and it made me think of something that I wanted to ask you about…». What doctors do you know care so much about their patients that they are thumbing through their files during their personal time? And mind you — I wasn’t having any life threatening issues. I was struggling to find the appropriate birth control while dealing with a blood disorder.
— I go in to see her, and she not only remembers my medical history, but she recalls my sister’s medical issues as well (whom, by the way, she has never met or treated). All of this BEFORE she even opens my file. Dr. Koopersmith is brilliant and listens.
— I have rarely waited in her office. Yes — she moves quickly on routine things — thank goodness or I and other patients would be waiting forever (like in other doctor offices). But whenever I have asked questions or had concerns or needed to chat, she ALWAYS takes the time. Never rushes me.
— Dr. Koopersmith tells it like it is. Some women find that rude, I presume, but I for one appreciate how direct, clear, and straightforward Dr. K. is with advice and information. She has NEVER been insensitive or cold, but biology and medicine doesn’t always tell you what you want to hear, and if you need honest answers, Dr. K. will give them to you.
— That said, I have found Dr. K’s bedside manner to be considerate and encouraging. She values health and fitness and urges her patients to keep themselves healthy and happy. She is motivating and caring, as well as kind. And most importantly, she is well read, stays current on research and often references what modern doctors are discussing. She knows her stuff.
I would highly recommend Dr. Koopersmith and urge readers to take her negative reviews with a grain on salt.

I just love Dr. Koopersmith. My only complaint is that she couldn’t see me through my whole pregnancy. She is very intelligent and extremely knowledgeable about fertility. I couldn’t have asked for a better doctor. Her team is also wonderful. I had the most contact with Natasha and Martha. They are both so helpful. Natasha is extremely reassuring and clear which is imperative when you are going through any fertility issues. The office is busy but I never have to wait long. Thank you Dr. Koopersmith and team! I appreciate all that you do.

Dr. Koopersmith is AMAZING. I read reviews here on Unilocal and decided to give her a try. It’s true she’s not super friendly and she’s not very affectionate but she’s not there to be your friend, she’s there to be your doctor.
There was no wait time and I felt her staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. Dr. Koopersmith spent almost an hour with me just talking and was VERY thorough in her examination. I really felt like she covered everything she possibly could and I think she is an excellent doctor. I trust her opinion and advice and feel like all bases are covered with her.
Happy I found my new doctor!

Dr. Koopersmith is a great OBGYN.
I will respond to a few of the negatives here.
No, she isn’t always coddling, but when I was seriously upset, she was very very kind. She is matter of fact but crazy smart.
She took all of my symptoms very seriously and found the 4 cysts that were growing in my uterus. She also did the surgery to remove them. Now, I am totally free of all symptoms and finally feel better!
I found that is you just speak honestly with her, she can be very kind and helpful. I tell her when I am nervous or uncomfortable and she is great! I think if any of the people had an issue with her, they probably just wanted a completely different vibe. She is not a «mommy» or a hand-​holder. She is brilliant and I completely trust her to give it to me straight.
Yes, she pushes genetic testing, but I told her I wasn’t ready and she was fine with that.
She is a great OBGYN, I would 100% recommend her!!!
***Update Feb 2015-​After helping me through the cysts and then a thyroid condition, I am pregnant and due with a little girl in June! Couldn’t have done it without Dr. Koopersmith!!!***

I’ve been seeing Dr. Koopersmith since 2009 and have had nothing but positive experiences with her. I’ve never felt afraid to ask her questions and her staff is attentive is welcoming.
I can’t speak on other’s experiences but when it comes to lab work, I haven’t had issues or felt like I was left in the dark.
I will continue to visit Dr. Koopersmith and continue to recommend her.

I completely disagree with the negative reviews for Dr. Tina Koopersmith.
I had an appt with her today and I will always remember it for the rest of my life. She sensed something was bothering me emotionally even though I was only talking about my physical symptoms. She sat down and comforted me and showed compassion about the sorrow of my infertility. She was encouraging and treated me like I was her only patient. She let me cry while she listened and encouraged me to show my love for children to other kids who don’t have it. She is a great doctor but today she was a great therapist, counselor and friend. You can tell she truly cares for me and her patients… not just physically… but emotionally too.
Having said that, I have been going to her for years. She is extremely knowledgable and thorough in her field. She asks many questions, her exams are very detailed and she takes a lot of time making sure that you understand all the issues and concerns she has with your health. She is a straight shooter and that is what I love about her. She is there to be honest and give you the real truth. Many doctors will be dishonest just to get a buck out of you. Dr. Koopersmith is not like that. Her number one concern is your health and well-​being.
I’ll be forever grateful for how Dr. Koopersmith took the extra time, energy and compassion to address my sad heart and I left very encouraged by what she had to say. I highly recommend her!

I feel like a lot of these reviews are not fair to her because, as with any relationship, you need to find the perfect fit doctor. She may not have been the right fit for some, but that doesn’t make her a bad doctor. She was the best doctor for me.
Dr. Koopersmith is not mean, at all, she is just a person who sees a problem and wants to solve it more than a person who wishes to spend time consoling. She does give her cell phone number out and she does answer on off hours. She will also see you any time, any day, but because she does this with everyone and she is very thorough, you may have to wait to see her.
She gave me a diet and exercise plan to follow to get pregnant and I did. Not only that but when I was pregnant she saw me every week, she picked up her cell on weekends, and she helped me get a beautiful baby boy. I can’t say enough about how much I really loved Dr. Koopersmith.
