Capital OB/GYN

The office is nice! I have never been to an office that made me feel like I wasn’t in a doctors office. The staff and the doctors are so friendly. Best office ever!

The staff is rude and the people in the billing department are incapable of doing their job! I’ve had problem after problem with them! I just recently moved into this area, and my Dr before was wonderful. because im so late in pregnancy one else wants to see me. Every time I get off the phone with one of the staff members, im in tears and cry for a couple hours. And mind you I haven’t cried once in pregnancy until having to deal with the staff there! DO NOT GO HERE! I guarantee you will regret going here! Im to the point that I don’t even want prenatal care. I would rather you show up to the hospital ready to have a baby!

I have only been too the Capitol obgyn in Sacramento off Cadillac drive, though I am close too the Elk grove South Sac area I wanted Dr. Thomas Melchione who
has been a blessing. I have met Dr. Bob years ago and though I know he knows his stuff, Dr. Melchione is a knowledgeable and has the most sincere bedside manner. He is a true sweetheart.
I have had a terrible time due to infection and other complications and he has done everything in his power too get me healthy again.
He has delivered my little cousin and will deliver any grandkids I should have in near future. My daughters really loved his bedside manner as well and know he really is compassionate and did truly seem too care about my case .
I have met other Doctors while in the hospital from Capitol obgyn while they did there rounds and they all made me feel like I was important and so was my health. They are the best in Sacramento .
Though the waiting room in the Cadillac drive office is way busier than several years back, I understand it’s the popularity of the Doctors. I do think they need to get a larger area for waiting area. The wait time is longer too than years ago but it is well worth the wait.

Is it weird to feel like I’ve hit the jackpot with Capital OB/​GYN?
We were assigned this office when our insurance was switched over. It’s quite the drive from my home but since my husband’s office is down the street, I decided to stick with it since I can just drop our children off with him and go to my appointments (children are not allowed in the doctor’s office). Even if my husband didn’t work nearby, I would still make the drive to this office, I’ve never been more comfortable with a doctor than I have felt here.
I’ve gone through this office for prenatal care for two of my children, most of those visits were handled by Dr. Melchione. Dr. Bob delivered my son and Dr. Maagdenberg delivered my daughter. Dr. Curkendall checked in on me after my deliveries. They were all very professional and willing to talk you through a procedure. I’ve never felt rushed through an appointment. The doctor’s are patient and encourage you to ask questions. I would normally clam up but not here.
I had my yearly women’s wellness exam last week and the quality is still there. Dr. Maagdenberg was very thorough and took the time to go over my charts with me.
The only problems I have had over the years is the call center at their secondary location in Sacramento. It sounds like I’m not the only one. I had a prior review that I decided to take down because it reflected more on the faults of the secondary location’s personnel rather than the staff at the West Sacramento location.

After moving a few times, I realized how hard it is to find a good doctor. I recommend Tanya at Capital OBGYN! She is very personal, even takes you in her office to talk about your health history, what you expect in the future and questions/​concerns you have. I have never had this happen at other doctor offices before so I was quite impressed!

I’ve only been to the West Sacramento location, and the office staff is wonderful. I was actually very impressed with my first visit and I was excited to not have to «shop around» for a doctor.
Then I had to call the office in Sacramento. The staff who answer the phone are rude, constantly interrupt, put you on hold without notice and not helpful in the slightest.
I am having a very complicated first trimester. I cannot keep food or liquids down and I’ve lost ten pounds since I first found out I was pregnant. I called the office first thing on Friday morning (the office opens at 9am) for some assistance. The office staff asked where I get my prescriptions and said they’d call in something for me.
I checked with my pharmacy at noon and they hadn’t received anything, so I called the doctors office after lunch to follow up. I was told not to worry that the order had been called in. I didn’t want to be a bother and I figured they would have no reason to lie, so I called my husband at work and asked him to pick it up for me on his way home. When he went to the pharmacy, there was nothing there and they had never received anything from the doctors office!
Since it was now the weekend and no one was in the office to help, I had to spend my first mother’s day weekend in the hospital! The ER doctor finally released me, but with only enough medication to get me through a couple of days because she wanted me to be seen by my regular doctor. I called the office first thing Monday morning and was barely able to state my problem before being put on hold (with no warning). Then when the woman came back on the phone she said I shouldn’t be having contractions and didn’t understand why I was in the hospital. I never said anything about contractions!
Needless to say, I’m looking for another doctors office.
