Apart from waiting 20–30 minutes to be seen after checking in, they were wonderful. From the front desk to the ultrasound technician and the nurse/provider, the staff were extremely kind, attentive, professional, and personable. Compared with other obstetricians I saw at another institution, this was noticeably better at every level. Apart from signing digitally at the desk, no paperwork was reviewed, even though this was my first appointment here. They explained everything and took time to listen and answer our questions. Despite being very busy, the staff even went out of their way to ask whether the doctor could see me earlier because my appointment with the doctor was scheduled five hours after my ultrasound. I do not know why this place has such low reviews. Note: if you have an urgent need or concern, do not wait for an appointment. Go to the hospital.

I always receive excellent service when I come here, and everyone I see is kind.

Dr. Keith was wonderful and tried to give me options and help me understand every issue. He sent me next door in the same building to Dr. Weatherly, who told me I did not know what I was talking about or what I wanted and wanted to remove all my parts. He did not give me options or a good outcome like Dr. Keith did. The other doctor broke my heart and said I had no choice. How can two doctors in the same building offer such different things? I am lost.

I have been coming here for nearly 20 years, with my most recent appointment on the ninth. I can speak only from personal experience, but this is the only place where I have received professional care, felt welcomed, and had my concerns addressed.

The prenatal care was terrible! Although Dr. Courtney is sweet, the office is a mess. I called to report spotting early in pregnancy but received no call back. I had to call again the next day to speak with a nurse, who told me it was normal. When the bleeding increased, I asked to see a doctor and have an ultrasound, but they claimed they could never accommodate me. She advised me to stay in the emergency department for an ultrasound! I had to learn in the emergency department that my baby had stopped growing and had no heartbeat. Even after that, the office did not urgently or conveniently bring me in as the emergency physician requested. They simply do not care about their patients. A loss is difficult enough, but it is even worse when the doctor's office acts as though it has no concern or compassion! My first pregnancy was managed through Greenville OB/GYN, and the experience was much better. Before learning that my baby had died, I was already planning to change clinics. If you are seeking care during pregnancy, do not come here! The front desk is terrible and does not care! 🤷‍♂️

My doctor was very good, but given my condition, I wish I had seen a specialist sooner.

My prenatal care visits were everything. The nurses and midwives were very helpful and made me feel at home. Special thanks to Nurse Ebony and my wonderful midwives, Sara Cummings Sears 🩷 and Jomeka Betty Mowery 🩷🩷🩷

At first, I was nervous about my first OB-GYN appointment, especially because the doctor was a man. But Dr. Richard Temple was wonderful. He put me completely at ease, explained everything patiently and thoroughly, and spoke calmly and respectfully. I felt heard and cared for throughout. I am very glad I chose him as my doctor—this was a five-star experience. Thank you, Dr. Temple!

I was forced to change doctors due to mine closing her practice. I was very nervous about having to start all over with someone new. I have been nothing but pleased and treated with respect and care here. Would highly recommend!

This was my first referral to them, and the experience was excellent. The doctor explained everything to me in detail. I would return and recommend this place to anyone seeking help.

The people were very nice. However, the person scheduling my appointment told me to book early. I needed both a procedure appointment and a 30-day appointment. She said it would count as the 30-day appointment even without the procedure scheduled. It was a waste of time and money. After getting the procedure appointment, I still had to schedule another appointment 30 days in advance.

As I got older, I became concerned about my health. A midwife examined me at the last minute and reassured me that my symptoms were normal and that she had experienced similar symptoms herself. She offered advice and solutions to help me through this stage of life.

Doctor was very nice! He greeted me with a handshake, spoke in a professional but understandable manner. The front desk ladies were polite and insured the personal information I provided for insurance purposes would be shredded. All around, a great experience especially for such a sensitive appointment.

I do not like seeing different doctors and not knowing who my primary doctor is. I also had a difficult pregnancy with my first son, yet they will not let me carry this baby to 40 weeks, which I do not understand and am unhappy about. I have to explain my medical history to every doctor, which I never had to do during my first pregnancy. It is ridiculous.
Oct 30, 2025
The doctor was wonderful and compassionate. She explained everything clearly and gave me a great deal of advice, as did the nurse assisting her. I began telling her about the pain of losing my daughter, and she listened carefully and comforted me. Yes, I would recommend them to everyone. Thank you for your kindness! ❣️

It is completely different now. “No one cares anymore.” There are still a few wonderful people, but everything is about money, along with many other problems. It is very sad 🤔🤔

I love this place and my doctor! All the nurses are friendly and care about you and your condition! Dr. DeVente is wonderful. He takes time with me and listens to my condition and medical history so he can provide the best treatment for my situation! I wish every doctor and nurse were like you! Thank you—you are amazing!

Getting a callback from a nurse is a real problem. After testing, the results do appear in my medical record. However, even when you are told someone will contact you within 2-3 days to discuss them, you hear nothing. Even if the doctor is away, patients should not wait a week for someone to call about test results. Part of a nurse’s role in supporting the doctor is managing these results. It is strange that patients now receive test results before their doctors. The order should be reversed. The process for patients to receive results and treatment should be smoother.

The visit went reasonably well. The doctor and nurse were friendly and made sure I was comfortable. However, it felt as though they had not reviewed my records beforehand and did not fully understand why I was there.

Excellent care. You may have to wait for an appointment, but it is absolutely worth it. Dr. LaRora is outstanding—attentive, compassionate, and professional. I am very happy to recommend her.

The service is thoughtful and meticulous, with outstanding quality. Thank you very much!! If you, like me, cannot speak English, they will arrange a private translator to assist you throughout your stay, from check-in to check-out.
