Absolutely HORRIBLE. Please avoid this doctor at all costs. I scheduled a pelvic exam with a referral due to being hospitalized with abnormal pain. I had also gotten an ultrasound before the appointment in which we would go over the results. On mychart the ultrasound came back irregular and they recommended further testing. Going into my appointment I was happy to finally get some answers. "Dr" apodaca walks in, says everything looks normal, does NOT do a pelvic exam, and tries to shove birth control down my throat. As she was walking out i stopped her and asked about the ultrasound results because from my end they were clearly abnormal. She explained that the irregularity is "normal" and will pass with my menstrual cycle. I went to another obgyn (northwest) and they said that it was NOT normal and I ended up getting an urgent SURGERY to remove the irregularities. Like what?!?! Do your job. Simple as that. Extremely disappointed not only in the lack of care she provided but also in the lack of care the office had in adressing my complaint.
Hands down the BEST OBGYN! She delivered my baby via csection and made me feel so safe and comfortable before, during, and after. She advocates for your wants and needs. She is a great listener and offers such sound advice. Her energy is so calming.
