Soha A. Elgharib's Online Review Report Card

Dr gave me a routine Pap test, but it was painful. She is a quiet lady but asked about my concerns and advised a bone density scan as well as a mammogram. The office was a shock as I’d never been in a medical office loaded with artificial plants and flowers, and the ones at reception desk super dusty. Off-putting for sure. Not sure I’ll be going back there.

AMAZING DOCTOR. UNDERSTANDING AND SWEET. AMAZING STAFF!!!

Always very friendly staff members and amazing doctors!!

Absolutely terrible experience. I asked about sterilization and rather than discussing it with me, she went off on how I would regret it, that most women who get it already have at least one child, and I should wait until I'm in my 40s. She apparently hasn't read her own college's (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists) clinical management guidelines regarding sterilization, which state that in a well-informed woman, age and the amount of children she has already had or not had should not be a barrier to sterilization. Her pelvic exam was rough and when I told her it hurt, she simply said that I bled during the swabbing for my Pap smear so it's not surprising. She didn't apologize or do anything to lessen the pain. Afterward she gave me a pad and told me I'd need it. The worst care I have ever received from an ob-gyn. Avoid avoid avoid!

Gentle, great listener, and informative.

Dr.Elgharib is very attentive both in and outside of appointments. She wholeheartedly addresses any worries, insecurities or fears you may have. She is very clear in explaining the agenda of appointments and tests. She tells you what should be done next after each appointment. I have never left an appointment feeling overwhelmed or confused about what I should be doing. Always generous with her time and dedicated to her patients.

She’s very kind and helpful.

Dr. Elgharib was very quiet and seemed like she was not in her best day, I had to push her to talk to me and immediately felt uncomfortable with her, as she was not present with me, acting robotically. I went there for a pap smear test which hurt a lot. I told her immediately that she hurt me and that I had never experienced that in the past with previous doctors, and she didn't say a word or show any concern. I was in pain for several days and bled like when you have a light period. I did call her to ask if this was normal and of course she said yes without any concerns. I previously had an excellent gynecologist but unfortunately my insurance changed and couldn't keep seeing her anymore and she never hurt me. Even when I had male gynecologists' in the past I would never bleed or be in pain after a pap smear test. Doing a pap smear test its already uncomfortable and embarrassing, I didn't appreciate Dr. Elgharib not being sensitive and careful. Would not recommend her.

Never coming back and definitely would not recommend her to anyone.. I don't usually leave bad reviews, but I feel it's my responsibility to other women to inform about a bad experience with a doctor.
