Delgado Rosemary, MD

I was referred to Dr. Delgado by my PC doctor and as someone who recently moved to the area I trusted my PC. Not long after, I became pregnant with my first baby and started seeing Dr. Delgado on regular basis. Mid pregnancy we moved to the South Bay and I had to change my OB, and chose one at Palo Alto Medical Foundation. This transfer made me aware of the poor quality of service I was receiving from Dr. Delgado’s office. I would never recommend her to anyone specially first time moms, due to the followings:
–inconsiderate office staff, waits are long, no less than 45 min up to an hour! No respect for the patient time what so ever and no apologies for being so late many many times. When called to leave a message for the Dr no call back was received until you call back again.
–incompetence medical staff, I needed to ask for tests to be done myself and had to call several times and leave messages to get the result. Being pregnant is a significant time in anyone’s life and when you need to be on top of everything and aware of necessary tests for each trimester. Medical staff don’t respond to the voicemails in a timely manner. It takes up to 3 – 4 days and many follow up calls to get the results instead of them contacting patients as soon as results are in.
–Dr. Delgado herself is not very enthusiastic about her job. As a first time parents my husband and I kept asking her many questions on each visits and were surprised by lack of energy and enthusiasm in responding to our questions. I guess if you don’t care much about the science and have no question she is ok, but not for curious, knowledgable parents.
— had to call many times for my medical history to be faxed to my new Dr. First time I called, I was told it takes up to 10 days! to transfer my medical record! That is in 21^st century with the advanced technology, fax, email, etc. only when I objected, the secretory finally said that they will fax it. Even, then the records were incomplete, of course I had to call again and ask for the rest.
Finally if you have any respects for your time, and are looking for quality care, knowledgable office stay away form this office.

Dr. Delgado has been by obgyn for 10 years now. She has been my doctor through 2 pregnancies and delivered both my babies. I acknowledge that there is a wait time to see her. But not always. There have been several occasions during my pregnancy where I did not have to wait more than 15 minutes, but yes there have been times when I waited a hour. She is very busy and high in demand. She also happens to be a fertility specialist which is a one of the reasons she in high demand. She is a great person and physician. With every visit, pregnant or annual check up, she has answered my questions efficiently and provide as much information.

I wish I had more good things to say about Dr. Delgado, but after being her patient for over ten years, I’ve never even seen her. She has never, in ten years, had an appointment open. I have only seen her NPs for regular exams. When I did need to see her for something unusual, I saw her NP Danielle (who is AWESOME and unfortunately is no longer there). Therefore, I’m no longer there either, preferring instead a doctor who actually sees her non-​pregnant patients face to face.

After stumbling across Dr. Delgado’s Unilocal reviews I felt so strongly to write my own. My first experience with Dr. Delgado was with my first pregnancy (¹¹⁄₁₀). I saw her at 8 weeks to see a beautiful heartbeat, and again at 9.5 weeks when I unfortunately miscarried. The day we discovered I was miscarrying she had me rush into the office immediately and worked me in. She spent SO much time with me at that emergency, unscheduled appointment. I was inconsolable and she was kind, compassionate, and patient with me. When I see all the negative reviews about wait time I think of this. And I hope others considering her or thinking of writing a negative review based on office wait time think of this too. Wouldn’t you want an OB who would rush you in and make time for you in an emergency situation? And one that would spend ample time with you when the unthinkable happens and you lose your child? I am certain that my appointment made others wait a considerable amount of time for theirs that day. I’d like to think you’d be more understanding if you knew the many situations she deals with on a day-​to-​day basis that might impact her schedule. Babies and pregnancies don’t always follow a minute by minute schedule…
I have had two other pregnancies since then. And yes, there is usually a considerable wait to see her, but she is worth it. She spends the time you need and doesn’t rush you out the door. As for deliveries– For my first birth (¹²⁄₁₁) she saved my life when I experienced a uterine hemorrhage, and for my second birth (²⁄₁₅) she saved my son’s life when we experienced an umbilical cord prolapse during birth.
For all of the reasons listed above, I can not recommend her enough. A little in-​office wait time is well worth it.

Love Her. She is the best. She delivered both of my children. Now, don’t ever expect your appointment to be on time… but, on the plus side of that, she never rushes you out. She spends as much time as you need. This is hard to find in a doctor. Most give you 20 and you’re out!

Any doctor who has their patients wait more than an hour is bad news. The office is run poorly and I didn’t get my test results until after calling several times. I left this doctor and found another. So happy with my new doctor and her staff.

Dr. Delgado and nurse practitioner Daniel are simply the best! Throughout my first pregnancy I spent the majority of the time visiting nurse practitioner Daniel. She made me feel at ease and explained everything with a great attitude. When I gave birth I went through almost no pain (which was my goal

Crazy inconsiderate office. Waits in waiting room longest ever — 45 — 60 minutes — and with NO OTHER patients there. And just seeing a nurse practitioner, not the doctor. Hello? Is my time of no importance to you?
No response on phone ever. None!!! You are not even put on hold. Just blown off by a recording.
Danielle the nurse practitioner is nice. But what good is that if you can’t get to her when you needed?

Dr. Delgado is the best. Very knowledgeable. You do have to wait for a long time sometimes but most medical offices are like that especially obgyn. They are on baby schedule. She personally delivers the baby no matter what time you are going into labor. which is very comforting.

I have to start by telling you how I happened upon this page. I no longer live in Walnut Creek, and I was looking for Dr. Delgado’s phone number so I could call her about my previous treatment in her office FOUR YEARS ago.
Four years ago I had my first pregnancy, and I didn’t know much about pregnancy at all. I read up everything I could get my hands on. Dr. Delgado provided tons of reading materials for me. When I started vomiting and not being able to hold anything down, I thought this is what they called, «morning sickness», so I just tried to push through… I wasn’t able to work and spent most days in bed with buckets or bags around in case I needed to vomit. Second appointment with Dr. Delgado, and instead of gaining weight, I had lost weight… A lot… Somewhere around 20 pounds. I explained that I couldn’t hold anything down and she immediately recognized what I was experiencing at hyperemesis gravidarum and got me on medications to control the vomiting. When they would stop working, she always went forth with the next best solution, and I was made to feel as comfortable as I could under the circumstances.
YES, her office did have long wait times… But I have never been seen on time by any doctor, ever… Much less an OB/​GYN who might be in a delivery room at any given time. I did see the nurse practitioner a few times, and she was also very knowledgable and sympathetic. I thought all the staff was very knowledgeable and sympathetic, actually…
So the reason I was looking her up today was that I am going through this illness, yet again, and I have a doctor here in the Central Valley who does not seem to understand the gravity of my situation. So I am NOT getting the treatment I need, and I wanted to see what it would take to get my records from her office to the office of my new OB here, so she could enlighten them with my medical history.
I would rather wait and HOUR or more to see Dr. Delgado, a doctor who listens and is genuinely concerned for my well being, than be seen promptly by someone who does not give a damn about what I am experiencing.

Does anyone have much experience with Dr Delgado performing minor out patient surgery? So far I thought that the Dr was OK. Didn’t see her much mostly saw the NP but she was good. Now I need to have a minor surgical procedure and since I started down this path it has been a nightmare. First off they want me to pay for the surgery up front before it is done. I have never had a doctor ask me to pay for services before they were rendered. But OK I know medicine is changing so I agreed. Then I go in for the pre-​op office visit at my scheduled time and was told that the Dr was too busy to see me and that I had to come back at 4:15. I told them I wasn’t sure I could make that and they told me I had to (huhh??) I rearranged my schedule and made it at that time. When I got there my insurance card wouldn’t go through and since it was late they couldn’t reach the company so they refused to see me. Mind you I had already paid for the procedure that hadn’t been done just not the office visit. So I am now wondering if it is just the front office that is completely inept or if it is the Dr as well.

Waiting nearly an hour to see a nurse practitioner on the first appointment could be chalked up to an emergency or a busy day. But when the same thing happened on the second appointment I just have to conclude that this office is just plain disrespectful of their patients’ time. Although Danielle Briggs, the nurse practitioner who met with my daughter, is pleasant and knowledgeable, 45 minutes to an hour is too long to wait for a 10 minute appointment!

I would say she is amazing what she does.
I met her from day one. When I had a check up that I believe I was pregnant. She did a normal check-​up and see how long I was. I was 4 months pregnant and she noticed I was scared and shocked. I told her I didn’t know; it wasn’t planned. Of course I was a young adult of the age of 20. She gave me options and told me that she couldn’t do abortion if she wanted to. I had to go to a clinic that specialized it. Of course I had to think fast what to do and by the time I was gonna do the abortion from the clinic, it was too expensive for me to pay. So I decided to keep the baby.
Not to long after that, my ex got into a fight and he broke up with me and wanted me to do adoption. Believe me. I was clueless what to do. By the time that happened, her assistant came and told me what to do from there. She gave me adoption places and some peoples portfolio of some people that want to adopt, but It was honestly a hard choice. Yes, I wanted to keep him. But I didn’t know if I could take care of the baby alone.
Yes, I saw Dr. Delgado a few times from her appointment scheduled, but I know she said when she’s not there, she’s delivering babies at the Hospital. So I think it’s understandable.
So I did see the assistant nurse for the rest of my appointments till I delivered the baby. During that time it was seeing the ultrasound and the assistant more and more till I was due.
Even though her assistant nurse came to me and did the checkup, She wasn’t that bad. She answered my questions. And the ones she didn’t have an answer and had to ask Delgado, she called me within a week what to do.
The time I had contractions and went to the hospital to push, Delgado was there to deliver. Before she got there, the nurse did give me directions, but Delgado gave me direct ways to push easier without pain (with the epidural). I didn’t know how easy it was till it popped right into her hand and gave me my baby Boy, Jayden.
P.S.
They do have a lot of waiting.
Delgado gave me baby/​mommy magazines when I saw her.
The receptionist was great and her other staff.
I recommend her if you are deciding on an OBGYN!

Dr. Delgado was great, the one time I saw her. However, I waited more than 45 minutes for every appointment. Her staff (besides the Nurse Practitioner) were not friendly nor knowledgeable. They never called me to let me know that I needed a referral from my primary care physician until the day of my appointment. I had to of course cancel my appointment with less than 24 hours notice. They sent me a bill in the mail because I didn’t cancel my appointment in time. Now, as I’m looking to get pregnant the last doctor I want to go to is Dr. Delgado because of her lousy staff.

I have mett Dr. Delgado all of twice and i think she is awesome very popular dr who is very busy though. I spent all my visits with there nurse practioner Daniel she is just as awesome and i swear if she was able to deliver my child she would be the lady i would pick. She makes you feel so comfortable and will answer all your questions very patient women and just aweomse. Jenaya and nancy are aweomse two they are normally at the reception desk or checking your weight or other various things very kind ladies. Great staff im sad to go and will greatlly miss all of you!

My wife has seen Dr. Delgado for the past 3 years. We have found she is extremely helpful and generous with her time. We are expecting our first child soon and would not trust anyone but her. She is sole practitioner, which has pluses and minuses. The minus is that you may have to wait a bit longer to see her, but the pluses far exceed this small inconvenience.

Dr Delgado is an excellent physician. She takes the time to answer all of your questions and concerns, without making you feel rushed. She is very friendly and caring as well. Although she is generally 30 – 60 minutes late for almost all late day appointments, it is possible to call her office prior to your appointment to get an updated estimate as to when you might be seen so that you can show up a little later and not wait in the waiting room. The plus side to that wait time is the realization that she’s late because she is actually spending time with you when she sees you to address your concerns and questions. In addition, she delivers all of her babies unless she is physically out of town. I believe that she answers all of her calls as well, even if she is not on call (again so long as she’s not out of town)! I had one minor complication/​abnormal symptom during my first pregnancy and had to call her at 9:30pm. Her answering service promptly forwarded my call to Dr Delgado and she called me back within 5 minutes. And regarding appointments, I have seen Dr Delgado for every single one of my prenatal visits. Prior to becoming pregnant, I only saw her NP once or twice for Gyn issues and felt that she was fully capable of addressing my issue at that time. Overall I am extremely happy with Dr Delgado and her staff and would highly recommend her.

Just simply terrible.
My wife’s been a patient of Dr Delgado for 2 years, until today. Of the 7 or 8 appointments she’s had with her, we’ve seen Dr. Delgado maybe twice… the other times were all with PA’s or RNs, and each time they’ve been maybe 30 minutes behind schedule. Unacceptable, but understandable.
Today however, we went in for an 11:45 family planning appointment. 12:00 we ask the receptionist what the holdup is, and we’re told there are no rooms available. 12:20 we’re taken to a room. 12:45, we still haven’t seen the doctor. An hour after our appointment time, and we still don’t even know if the doctor’s in the building. We left at that point.
Needless to say, we got our copay back, and let them know we’d be finding another doctor. Of course, they’ll charge us $ 25 to get the records to a new doctor.
Find a different doctor, that’s all we can say.
