I was very pleased with everything , and left feeling much better then I have in a long time!

The doctor suggested medications, none of which my insurance would cover but I chose to pay out of pocket.

4 out of 5 stars

Initially when she walked in, she had confused some of the information on my chart, which made our initial conversation a little confusing and awkward.It would be helpful to remind the care providers of that most patients are feeling incredibly vulnerable, and that some of us have complex histories that involve trauma regarding our reproductive health and female anatomy. I think there are ways as a practice to make sure that the utmost care is given, perhaps assuming that everybody is starting from that place and adjusting accordingly.Also, this has nothing to do with the Doctor (who is great by the way), but the layout of the room does not feel safe and secure. If you want to contact me about this, I can give you my thoughts in greater detail.

Dr. Sappenfield was amazing. Honestly one of best doctors I have come in contact with. She was kind and empathic to my concerns. She made sure I felt heard and completely comfortable with my options and the treatment plan we agreed on. I highly recommend her. She was wonderful start to finish.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional care and compassion provided by Dr. Sappenfield and the entire staff during my recent visit. As a first-time patient in your specialty, I was understandably nervous and embarrassed. However, from the moment I walked in, I was treated with the utmost dignity, care, and respect. Your bedside manner is truly exemplary, and it sets a standard that all doctors should strive to follow. I was impressed by the professionalism exhibited by every staff member and truly appreciated the efficiency of the check-in process. Your thoroughness and willingness to explain every step of the exam and treatment plan, as well as answer all my questions, put me at ease. Your knowledge of the body as a whole, including diet and supplements, and alternative medicine was truly impressive. Moreover, the clean and modern facility, along with the elements designed to help patients relax, further contributed to the positive experience. I no longer feel afraid or embarrassed about my situation, thanks to your kindness and compassion. I have complete trust in your expertise and look forward to my follow-up visits. Your dedication to patient care is truly remarkable, and I wish you could replace all my doctors. Thank you once again for everything.
