Clinic Details

Since 1994, when Dr. Ramirez first began his practice on San Jose Street in Salinas, California, his goal has always remained the same: Provide the highest level of care in gynecology and infertility for every patient who comes to see him. When he moved his clinic and laboratories to a new facility outside Monterey in 2008, this goal was utmost in his mind. He developed a patient-centered, comfortable clinic with certified laboratories and a state-of-the-art surgery center under one roof.  All along, Dr. Ramirez and his staff remained and continue to remain deeply committed to courteous, responsive and personal care.

We focus on providing one-on-one, specialized care at all levels, including routine health maintenance visits.  Dr. Ramirez sees exclusively gynecology and infertility patients. He prefers to stagger his appointments, giving him sufficient time to visit with each patient. Prior to your appointment you will be able to relax in our elegant waiting room (one that is not filled with obstetrics patients) have some coffee and fill out any forms with leisure. Unlike other clinics, you will only be seeing one doctor who is on call for you exclusively and not for any other doctor’s patient, as he would be in a large group.

    I still cannot get over this doctor’s selfishness. I saw him about my chronic condition because he had good reviews, so I was optimistic. The consultation started badly: he was angry that he was the third doctor I had seen. I understand that may be frustrating, but I explained why. My first doctor said she did not know how to help because my body responded poorly to medication, so I went elsewhere. My second doctor was also unsure and essentially told me to keep taking medication even though it was not working, leaving me confused and helpless. I needed more guidance and a doctor who could help. He seemed irritated until he reviewed my surgical records and realized how serious my condition was, yet he still treated me like a nuisance. The main issue arose when he asked whether I planned to have children. That is a common question for a gynecologist, but his response made me very uncomfortable. When I said no, he strongly objected to my decision. It felt as though he was thinking only about himself and his business. He said I was young and asked, “If you had a partner who said, either have a child with me or we break up, which would you choose?” I was angry and gave him an answer he did not want to hear. He then said that if I did not want children, perhaps I should have a hysterectomy to cure my condition, with a mocking smile as though pleased with his comeback. A hysterectomy is major surgery. I do not want another operation, and it can cause other complications, which he certainly knows. Demeaning a woman simply because she does not want children is absurd. Even if you disagree, keep it to yourself. I remained calm and polite throughout because I genuinely needed help. He became furious simply because we disagreed about having children. I regret not standing up for myself and explaining that people have different views. No doctor should demean you for expressing this view or try to change your mind. Most insulting of all, people with my condition already have difficulty becoming pregnant, so why was he so rigid? 🙄 Talking to him was a waste of time. The other women working at the clinic were polite, and I appreciate them. Otherwise, I do not want this doctor’s help. I found him unethical and disrespectful.

    Dr. Edward Ramirez is truly a gem in reproductive medicine. From the moment I entered his office, I received warm and attentive care. His kindness and concern immediately put me at ease, especially during such an emotionally challenging journey. Dr. Ramirez is not only highly knowledgeable and skilled but also genuinely listens to his patients. He understood my concerns and goals and worked tirelessly to create a personalized treatment plan suited to my needs. Throughout treatment, Dr. Ramirez and his dedicated team provided unwavering support and encouragement. They were always available to answer questions or address concerns, which relieved much of the stress associated with fertility treatment. Thanks to Dr. Ramirez’s expertise and the exceptional care I received at the clinic, I am now pregnant! I am overjoyed and will always be grateful to Dr. Ramirez and his team for making my dream of having a family a reality. If you need fertility care, I sincerely recommend Dr. Edward Ramirez. His professionalism, expertise, and compassionate approach set him apart. Thank you for everything, Dr. Ramirez!

    I cannot get over this doctor’s self-centeredness. I consulted him about my chronic illness because his reviews were good, and I felt optimistic. The consultation started poorly: he was angry that he was the third doctor I had consulted. I understand that this may be frustrating, but I explained why. My first doctor said she did not know how to help because my body did not respond well to medication, so I went elsewhere. My second doctor also did not know how to help and essentially told me that I had to take the medication even though it was not working. I felt confused and lost. I needed more guidance and a doctor who could help me. He seemed concerned until he reviewed my surgical records and realized how serious my condition was, but he still treated me like a nuisance. The conflict arose when he asked whether I planned to have children. This is a common question for a gynecologist, but his response disturbed me. I said no, and he immediately became defensive and disagreed with my decision. I felt that he was thinking only of himself and his business when he asked. He said I was still young and gave me a hypothetical: ‘If you had a partner who told you, either have a child with me or we break up, what would you choose?’ I was angry that he asked this and gave him an answer he did not want. He then told me that if I did not want children, perhaps I should have my uterus removed to cure my condition. After saying this, he gave a slight smirk, as though proud of his little comeback. A hysterectomy is a major procedure. I do not want another surgery, and it can cause other complications, as he certainly knows. Belittling a woman because she does not want children is appalling. Even if you disagree, keep it to yourself. I should also say that I never lost my composure and remained polite throughout because I truly needed help. He berated me simply because I disagreed with him about having children. I deeply regret not standing up for myself and telling him that other views exist. No doctor should belittle you or try to change your mind for saying this. Most absurdly, people with my condition already have difficulty becoming pregnant, so why was he so insistent? 🙄 Speaking with this man was a waste of time. The women who worked there were polite to me, and I appreciated them. Otherwise, I do not want this doctor’s help. I found him unethical and disrespectful.

    From my first appointment, I knew I was in the care of an exceptional doctor. Dr. Ramírez is not only compassionate but also an outstanding fertility specialist whose knowledge and precision were evident at every step of treatment. He treated my dream of parenthood as his own, explaining complex processes in clear language, making thoughtful recommendations tailored to my situation, and guiding me confidently through every decision. His calm manner, clinical expertise, and dedication gave me more than medical care—they gave me hope and ultimately made my miracle possible. The team working alongside him was equally exceptional. Emily, Erika, and Elvira were not only kind, welcoming, and encouraging but also highly knowledgeable, guiding me through each step with professionalism and clarity. They combined compassion with expertise, ensuring that I always felt informed and supported. I also want to thank the embryologist, whose skill and attention to detail often remain unseen by patients but gave me confidence that my embryos were in the best hands. Thanks to this extraordinary team, I am now expecting my miracle baby. I will be forever grateful and wholeheartedly recommend this clinic.
