Amy C Shapiro Md's Online Review Report Card

I have seen several dozen doctors and specialists. I have had my fair share of good and bad doctors. Dr. Shapiro is most definitely the meanest, coldest, most miserable doctor I have ever seen. Rarely did she look at me. She would breeze in, quickly rattle of info with a sigh, randomly walk out of the room in the middle of talking and then completely humiliated me. I had an abnormal pap. She was PAINED to explain to me what was going on. She diagnosed me with HPV and when I started to tear up a little she put her hand up and stated in such a mean tone “you do you know you got this, right?” To which I cried even harder. She said I needed a procedure then walked out. No words of encouragement, no explanation of the procedure...she just left. I know two other people who saw her who report the same care that I received. I don’t know how anyone goes back to her. Looking back now, I would have said some more direct words to advocate for myself.

Dr. Shapiro is rude and condescending. I will never be seeing her again.

Dr. Shapiro is great. Lovely offices and I have always felt comfortable and in good hands.

Dr. Shapiro a kind, experienced and excellent physician. She always has your best interest in mind. Women of all ages who are hesitant to see a gynecologist should make an appointment with her right away. She will make you feel very comfortable and take good care of you.

I made an appointment with Dr. Shapiro because my husband and I wanted to begin trying for a baby. She told me I should lose weight before getting pregnant because I will hate the way I look after the baby comes. I was pretty appalled by her bed side manner and switched practices. Well here I am 6 months pregnant and according to my new doctor I have only gained a total of 15lbslbs and that I'm doing great with my weight gain. I would not recommend Dr. Shapiro to anyone unless you want to feel bad about yourself.

I have visited several gynecologists over the years and until seeing Dr. Shapiro, they were all supportive and excellent. Dr. Shapiro is not only cold and rude, but also I do not trust her medical advice. She is incredibly condescending, patronizing and forceful with her opinion. I myself am a medical student, so I feel that I know more about modern medicine than the average patient. Nevertheless, she persisted in treating me as if I was an ignorant child incapable of making sound decisions when it came to my own wellness and body. Gynecologists are supposed to support women in living healthy fulfilled lives, not belittle them for minor details that stray from Western medicine. I can say without a doubt that I am never stepping foot in that office again, and I urge anyone and everyone reading this to do the same.

Would not recommend this doctor to anyone. You may be able to easily get an appointment with her because no one wants to see her and she has a lot of cancellations as other doctors become available. She does not understand that patients and their preferences for treatment come first over her own opinions which she will try to impose on you even if they are not in your best interest. She has no problem arguing with patients and talking about your personal information outside of the exam room for all to hear.

Dr. Shapiro was very quick but she performed a gynecological exam so quickly and roughly that I was sore for two days. I felt like I had been stabbed. Terrible experience with follow up staff - I've suffered with cysts on by breast for over a year and all they ever do is call me in for the Ultrasound and later I get a letter that says it isn't cancerous. No discussion of diet, birth control problems, etc. Very informal and worthless time has been spent with this Womancare institution for 18 months.

Condescending, harsh and cold. I would never return to Dr. Shapiro. Did not even attempt to represent herself as friendly; scolded me for requesting a generic bcp perscription.

Was not courteuos with me. Neither smiled nor she was polite. I had been to lot of doctors I dont have this kind of experience from others.I wouldnot recommend to others.
