Patient Reviews

What patients say about their care.

Lauren Woods is absolutely the best OBGYN I have had!! She takes the time to listen to your concerns and addresses any issues. She provides a detailed plan of care and what to expect. I have been through several OBGYNs and with my extensive gynecological history I feel I have found someone who understands and wants to get to the bottom of everything. She responds to questions in a timely manner and when she referred me to an Endocrinologist and I also was seeing other specialties for further diagnostics she asked to keep her updated on each one. After several failed attempts with other providers I do not plan on changing providers any time soon. I highly recommend her for care.

GYN Patient

Lauren Woods is amazing. I first met her when attempting to begin my fertility journey — I had more complications than could be managed at this office, but Ms. Woods remembered who I was when coming back for a yearly check up. She was so kind, listening to me when I discussed PCOS and alternate treatments besides birth control. She never talks down to me, and always treats me with respect. I highly recommend her to all my friends, and will always want her as my provider.

Fertility & PCOS Patient

Lauren Woods is the best provider I've seen. When I asked questions she would answer them and explain things, giving additional information such as why certain symptoms or things are happening — whereas other providers would give me a simple "that's normal" but not explain what's going on or why it's happening.

GYN Patient

She makes you feel comfortable, asks thorough questions, listens well and explains things in a way you can understand.

Verified Patient

I love Lauren! She is down to earth, kind, and always puts me at ease when I have to visit the OBGYN. She was the last doctor I saw, too, right before I gave birth to my little girl, Nora. Would definitely recommend her.

OB Patient

Lauren was the kindest, most empathetic provider I have ever seen. She also is extremely professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her to others.

Verified Patient

Lauren Woods is wonderful! Very knowledgeable and compassionate. Made me feel seen and like a real person — rather than a task to be checked off.
