I met with all the OBs at this practice during my pregnancy and all the providers are personable and professional. The front desk staff are also pleasant to work with.Dr. Prosper was the OB who performed my C section and it went very smoothly. I healed in record time. My scar is also very thin, low, and even. Her skills as a surgeon are top notch. She also has great bedside manner and answered all my questions at all my appointments. I will definitely be coming back for my next pregnancy.One comment is that there can be a lengthy wait time at this office to be seen. However, I saw the wait times improve significantly during my most recent appointments.
We really have had a good experience here overall. Todays my 3rd visit here with my wife Swati. All the staff (doctors, nurse practitioners including the receptionist) are very kind, helpful and polite.The clinic is also clean, has basic amenities. The initial process of registration was also simple and people were helpful.I highly recommend this clinic for treatment.
I have great experience with this practice, all the staff here is friendly and helpful. Especially my OB doctor- Doctor Branche is amazing! I would recommend her to everybody. It is important to have an OB doctor that brings you positive vibe and helps you feel comfortable and confident during the procedure, especially in the middle of labor. Doctor Branche is the one! She is not only a very professional doctor, but also she is nice and patient. Another doctor, Doctor Hussain is also very nice doctor, she is very caring and patient as well. Even though I only saw her once when doctor Branche was not available on that day. She gave me very good impression as a OB doctor. Strongly recommend both of these doctors!!
It was quick in and out and the waiting area was quiet and calm. The nurse was friendly but professional, put me at ease! Dr. Sarina Hussain was amazing, very personable, also put me at ease while she was examining, very thorough!! I would definitely recommend the place!!
I have been back and forth with my reviews of this practice. The overall experience I had during my pregnancy was positive. My only complaint before my birth is that they would run test on me without my knowledge. I have zero medical background and was not given a clear understanding of what test were being run and had zero clarity on cost. With insurance I ended up spending about $2500 before I gave birth. Some of their suggestive care is very expensive. My main issue is that I made it 100% clear that I did not want an episiotomy during labor. I would like to tear naturally which ACOG recommends. During my 37 hour, medically induced, drugged up labor, I ended up pushing for a little over an hour when Dr Branche asked me if she could give me an episiotomy. I was tired, drugged up, and delirious so of course I consented. I have had issues with this ever since. I ended up with wound breakdown and Dr Branche recommended not redoing my sutures. Im 6 months after giving birth and still having perineum pain and issues. I have been told I look fine for someone who had a baby. That the pain will go away over time. I was told horrific worse experiences as a way for Dr Branche to empathize with me about my pain. It honestly has been a horrible experience. I dont even want a second child now. I want to be fixed and pretend this never happened. I am posting this very personal experience becuase I want other women to know that they need someone who is awake, aware, and in the heat of the moment can remind them what they want out of their labor. Make sure your person is prepared to advocate for you and not let doctors talk you into whatever they want in the heat of the moment. I am extremely disappointed and still upset that this happened to me.
Every provider Ive seen in this office has been wonderful. Recently my last visit with the Nurse Practitioner Sarah was just as wonderful. It was my first time meeting her and she displayed an understanding bedside manner and listened to my concerns providing solutions.
The providers seem nice enough but its hard to really know. Every time I come here I see a different provider and for every hour that I spend in the waiting room or in an exam room. I spend maybe 3 minutes with a technician who takes my blood pressure and another 5 minutes with a provider.Communication is a consistent issue. I never know what Im actually showing up for, whether its going to be for an ultrasound or for a glucose test or for blood work.I have literally been sitting in the waiting room after checking in for an appointment for 45 minutes and received a text message letting me know that the provider I am supposed to meet with is not there today.Today I raised some of these concerns with the provider that I met with and it felt like she had more excuses than explanations.I understand why it would be helpful for me to know multiple providers, but not a single person knows anything about me or what my preferences are or has communicated anything to me about what my delivery would actually look like.This was a lot more understandable in my first pregnancy because I moved here at 7 months and had to find a practice quickly that accepted my insurance. This is my second pregnancy now and I feel like I know less now than I did the first time around when I only had 2 months to prepare with the practice.I am 20 weeks into my pregnancy now and its not ideal to switch providers, but unless I see some drastic improvements between now and my next appointment, I dont know that I trust this practice to deliver for my second pregnancy. This whole process has been incredibly frustrating. There has been almost no communication.Edit to respond**The number you have provided to discuss my review just goes to that main office. Do you have an extension or can you give me the name of someone to ask for?
I have always had a pleasant experience with the front desk staff here. They are kind Professional and reasonable. It’s seriously so refreshing. Even the phlebotomist is so welcoming, comforting and nice every time. Sarah has been seeing me for years and I really do enjoy my visits with her. I feel like she listens. I’ve also had really great visits with Dr. Hussain and Dr. Bellamy. I only had one bad experience with the male dr.benor. I would never recommend going to him, and I expressed my concerns to another dr. They were apologetic on his behalf. Still professional though, so I don’t know how much it mattered but I’ve been going here for almost 4 years and would not want to go anywhere else.
Dr. Hussein is wonderful. Kind. Understanding. And most important, she listens! Staff are also kind and accommodating. *This is the place you want to go for pelvic sonograms*
Took my mom for annual checkup. Dr. Hussain is a skilled professional who listens to patient concerns and is very caring. Feel very blessed to have found an excellent doctor!
What I went through with Dr. Benor was so upsetting that it has taken me months to even leave a review.I wanted to detail how horrific my experience was so that no other woman would have to go through what I did.However, I just checked and he’s no longer listed as a provider???Well thank goodness!But the damage caused by him has forced me to dismiss this place completely.Which is unfortunate because the rest of the staff were friendly and made me feel welcome.
This is my OB practice, and I would always recommend them. I have felt well taken care of throughout all my visits, especially during my pregnancy.
Dr Bellamy team is really good they help me a lot during my pregnancy. This is my second baby but first was different doctor but Dr Bellamy team is best.
My wife loved Dr. Branche as she did an amazing job delivering our baby. Overall I appreciate Adventia for making my wife feel comfortable and informed throughout her pregnancy.
The staff at the front were very nice! They called me ahead of time to let me know Dr.Branche may not be in right at my appointment time. There was some confusion when I arrived on whether or not Dr.Branche would be available but they assured me I would be seen by a doctor . I am so happy I got Dr.Branche she was very kind, knowledgeable and took her time to answer all my questions! Overall, really good experience!
I called to ask for more details about my appointment and the girl I talked to from the front desk was very rude. She would not listen to me and dismissed my questions. She claimed that it is impossible to do blood work before 7-8 weeks of pregnancy (I was asking for it at 6 weeks 5 days) which is simply untrue, and would not let me explain my case of why I want it sooner.I cancelled my appointment and will not be booking another one here.
Great staff and excellent management. I had an appointment issue I couldn’t obtain my old medical records, I asked if I could speak with the office manager, she was very helpful by getting my medical records and even follow up days later just to see if everything went well. I truly Love her professionalism and attentiveness its the little things that make you feel like the practice care.
Dr. Branche was amazing! I had a great experience with her along with a genuine bond and felt like she was a friend, along with being my doctor. Im so glad I found this office!
Dr. Zarina was good listener and paid attention to all my comments. I got good recommendations and treatment. The staff was polite and friendly.
Advantia OB-GYN Shady Grove is awesome! Dr. Hussain and her staff are kind, caring, and professional. They listen to all your concerns in an attentive, compassionate manner. I highly recommend them.
Amazing office! Amazing staff. My appointment with a different office was botched the day of my appointment. I called the Advantia Shady Grove location and they were able to see me the same day. There was no wait. Literally moved me in and out of the different areas (urine sample, exam, bloodwork). All of my questions were answered. They are thorough and I felt seen/welcome. I am grateful.
During my consultation, Dr. Prosper took the time to listen to my concerns and asked detailed questions to gain a thorough understanding of my medical history and current condition. I appreciated her genuine interest in getting to the root of the problem rather than just treating the symptoms.Dr. Prospers explanations were clear, concise, and easy to understand. She patiently addressed all of my questions and concerns, ensuring that I felt fully informed and involved in the decision-making process regarding my treatment plan. Overall the service was outstanding and I will always go back.
Really like this place and the doctors are very kind. Front desk is also very helpful and welcoming. Only thing is they never answer their phones. I’ll call on several different occasions to try make an appointment or for questions and they never pick up. And even when I leave a voicemail they never call back.
Dr Hussain is a great Dr. She has a great bed side manner and she cares.
I wouldn’t go anywhere else for Ob Gyn. Dr. Hussein has been my doctor for many years. She is thorough and compassionate. I saw Dr. Proposer for my last minute emergency appointment and was also thorough and explained to me options of treatment. Gigi, the sono technician, also helped me to see a doctor immediately when I was desperate to see a doc and discuss my medical issue. The front desk staff and nurses are all professional and easy to talk to.
Dr. Hussein is a very personable and professional OB/GYN. She takes time to know you and expresses concern about your care.
Although before my visit was not the best experience, the doctor that I actually saw (Dr. Branch) was very personable and I felt very comfortable with her. The midwife was also very kind. I needed this interaction today because I am traumatized by my condition but they made me feel a bit better for a few minutes.
My experience in all my visits including my procedure were successful. The doctor was very kind and takes time to explain everything and the staff are friendly.I will recommend this office for anyone needs Ob-Gyn treatments.
First and foremost, the doctors and staff are AMAZING! They listen, they make you feel welcome and answer all questions to your understanding. I have not one complaint about the doctors and staff. I didn’t give 5 stars because the wait time was absolutely ridiculous. They were behind and I was told my wait would be about 30-45 min, I arrived at 10:30am and was not seen until 12:00pm. I went on a Monday, maybe that played a factor but an hour and a half wait seems a bit much.
Great experience, wait time was under 10 mins for me. My appointment was great, I was able to ask all my questions. Mrs. Bellamy was personal and communicated very well. She explained what steps I needed to take regarding my concerns. She made me laugh and I felt comfortable! Parking is free even though at first it looks like it is not lol
Its not common for me to experience a supportive and welcoming environment within these particular health care settings. However, Im happy to say that I had the chance to experience positive feelings at Shady Grove! Dr. Bellamy was great and easy to talk to and the person who had to do my bloodwork did an amazing job of calming my nerves related to getting stuck with a needle. Highly recommend!
My first visit was excellent! Started with super easy scheduling through Zocdoc & the visit itself was above & beyond. I scheduled a new patient visit and brought an issue that my primary caught just a couple of weeks prior. In addition to my exam, Dr Hussain took the time to dive into the issue, order additional comprehensive tests to be conducted on the spot, which the team immediately did, and she provided different options and next steps. On top of this, great front desk team. Happy to have found this group. Definitely recommend!!
This place will not obtain the necessary insurance paperwork for your appointments and then charge you for a staff error.I resolved the paperwork issue with much pushback from the office. No accountability was taken at all.The office staff is negligent and rude. Dr.benor is condescending and diagnoses you without performing the proper tests NEEDED to diagnose.Referred me to a therapist because I was worried about abnormal blood work. Gets irritated if you ask too many questions about the care youre receiving and why. I told him I could not take birth control because it affects my body too terribly. I was given the choice of only birth control for management of my symptoms, which put me in the hospital two days in a row.His patient notes are absolutely deplorable and insulting. Horrible bedside manner.IF YOU WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE A PERSON, DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!
Always a pleasure having my annual exam with Dr. Bellamy. She’s so friendly, professional and knowledgeable and really cares for her patients! The front desk and staff is friendly and welcoming. I’ve only had the best experience so far and highly recommend!
I had bad experiences at this clinic after Dr. Huang left the practice. Scheduled my appointment, however, when I show up was told that my appointment was cancelled because the Ob doctor is not available. I don’t get it is it patient’s responsibility to make sure the OB doctor is available when I make the appointment? Why they can’t just switch to another provide in the clinical? Are they all dead? Why it has to be cancelled?As a patient, I don’t feel the patient care is considered the priority at this clinical.Also, the billing office messed up my bill and was asked me to pay the entire amount and keep blaming on my insurance company. I have to deal with them back and forth to finally find out that they filed to a wrong address, without even an apologies.Would not recommend this place at all.
Dr. Bellamy is the worst doctor ever and does not deserve her M.D. if you care about your life don’t go to her. This entire practice sucks. My sister gave birth on Oct 2nd with Dr. Bellamy as the OB. She left 2 golf ball sized chunks of placenta inside my sister. That is not okay and is negligence on her part. My sister hemorrhaged a few days after delivery and I watched her get carried out on a stretcher unconscious by paramedics. At the hospital Dr. Benor put his entire arm up into her cervix and manually extracted two golf balled size of placenta out of my sister. They immediately sent her home after that and said she was “good”. Two days later my sister hemorrhaged again and was rushed to the ER again. At that point scans found more things inside and they decided to perform surgery, D&C. It has now been a week since my sisters first ER visit and Dr. Bellamy has not even given her a call or done any type of follow up to show concerns. She doesn’t care for her patients. Also my sister couldn’t even get anyone on the phone to schedule a follow up appointment. Their practice is in shambles, the patient customer service line sucks (no one picks up) and the doctors put my sister and our family through hell and back. No one should come to this office.
Dr Hussain is a gem. I’ve been going to her for many years. She is compassionate , professional and cares about her patients. I had been on a prescription for 20 yrs when my insurance decided they would no longer pay for it. I switched prescriptions to the 2 prescriptions that insurance told me they would pay for and had really bad side effects on both…Dr. Hussain took a lot of time calling and talking to insurance to appeal and get original prescription approved….. I thanked her many times because I know how hard she worked and the time spent to get that prescription approved…she told me quality of life is very important. My quality of life is so much better on the original prescription..thank you Dr. Hussain..
Such a great experience that was worth driving 40 minutes to. I couldnt find an OBGYN near me that took my insurance AND had great reviews. My first appointment went so smoothly, staff was super nice and everything was right on time. Dr. Husain was even able to fit me in for an unscheduled ultrasound while I was there for my appointment. So glad to have found this place!
It was easy to check in and everyone was lovely. Doctor Sara is extremely knowledgeable and professional.
My experience with the office in person wasnt too bad. However, my purpose for my appointment was to receive birth control. In order to do this, you have to come in for a new patient appointment, they order the birth control, and call you within 2 to 3 weeks to have it inserted. During my first appointment, I completed my annual exam, and was told I would be contacted regarding my exam results. Needless to say, no one has contacted and my appointment was 6 weeks ago. I contacted them 2 weeks ago, and they didnt have an explanation as to why I wasnt contacted and wasnt sure where the birth control order was or why it has been delayed. They said I would be contacted soon, and yet, no one has contacted me, not even with an update. So at this point, I will be going to another practice.**UPDATE**2 months later, no phone call regarding my exam results or my birth control. But guess what was not late, that bill!!!! They sent the access link to my cell phone. Oh, and I have tried to contact the office several times, and no one picks up or calls me back. I really did try here, but there is only so much a patient should be expected to do when Im the one thats paying.
I have been with Advantia since Dr. Goodman was around in the early 2010s. He was excellent. I only see Dr. Sarah Prifte. This review is a 5 star regarding my most recent visit with Dr. Prifte because she listened to all my concerns and made me feel comfortable throughout my appointment. Even if my symptoms weren’t visible at the time of the appointment, she still took my concerns seriously and sent me out for an ultrasound with another specialist. My only suggestion to the practice is to implement the use of Zocdoc again for appointments considering that it is nearly impossible to get anyone from the front desk to pick up the phone or return calls. It took me over the course of three days to book my appointment because no one would answer.
Dr. Hussain is amazing. She listens to all your concerns and gives you the best advice. She makes feel comfortable and safe. And her staff is nice and friendly.
Dr. Hussain is amazing and holistic. I went through 4 other offices in the area until I found Dr. Hussain. Only knock is the admin staff is hard to reach over the phone so in the case of an emergency, Id be worried about getting in contact with the office. Hopefully they can improve that one thing.
So thankful for Dr. Hussain! She has always taken my concerns seriously and believed me about any pain or problems I’ve experienced, which is sadly not always the case in women’s health care. I cannot recommend her enough!
Dr. LAUREN BRANCHE-James and staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend this practice !
Easy parking, easy check in, wait times are minimal. The only stress-free doctor I have! Dr.Bellamy is the best!
My good friend was followed by this clinic and delivered with them recently. Unfortunately, it has been a traumatic, scary, and life-threatening experience. She did not receive adequate care which put her life in danger multiple times and also caused a tremendous amount of stress and worry for her entire family. Beware of this practice, and seek more professional care elsewhere reflecting the human decency we deserve.
Do you like your messages not being returned? How about extensive waits in the lobby or virtual visits? If youre interested in that, then this is the office for you!Average wait time - 45+ minutesWhen asked when youll be seen sorry for the delay, theyll be with you in a few minutes. Dont listen to those lies. Itll be at least another 20 minutes.
(Gynecological only) This practice has been great. My appointments generally start on time and Im seen quickly by the doctor, not waiting in the room forever wearing those awkward paper dresses. Dr. Bryce is awesome!! She really takes her time with you and is thorough, empathetic, and kind.Ive seen sooo many gynecologists in my adulthood but never stuck with the same one for very long either because I didnt love the practice or the doctor or both... But I think I finally found my forever vaginacologist! Again, cant speak for obstetrics (totally different ballgame and I used a different practice during my pregnancy) but definitely recommend Dr. Bryce and Advantia Shady Grove if youre looking for a GYN.
I love Dr. Branche! I always look forward to seeing her❤️
It was my first time at this place. I was made feel very comfortable. Dr. Zarina is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable.
Dr. Rachel Prosper was nice and took good care of my wife. She was polite and asking my wife if she had any questions and clarified all her doubts. Thank you.
I absolutely love my OBGYN here. The staff is the first impression and always meet expectations! They are timely and knowledgeable and I am sure that assists my OBGYN with providing the greatest and most thorough care! I am grateful to my friend who referred this care and am hopeful to find similar care with other practitioners in the area.
Awful practice and negligent. My girlfriends sister gave birth here and they did not do the proper checks after she gave birth which lead to her losing a ton of blood, fainting in the bathroom. IF her sister wasnt with her at that exact time she could have died. While at the ER they found TWO golf size chunks of her placenta left in her... She was then discharged even though my girlfriends sister wanted to stay and monitor her condition. JUST 36 hours later she had to go back to the ER because she was bleeding an abnormal amount. This time they did a DNC to suck out her uterine lining. Why did she have to go to the ER two times because Dr. Bellamy is a terrible doctor.
Dr. Bellamy has failed to provide total care and doing her due diligence during and post delivery for my friends sister nearly cost the sisters life. Dr. Bellamys had delivered the baby but failed to remove excess placenta left in the mother which caused hemorrhaging and nearly cost the mothers life. It is infuriating for an experience doctor to fail to provide proper care to a patient. Another infuriating point is that there were no post surgery check up to ensure the mother is doing fine. You treated my friends sister as a customer and not as a patient, you have failed to be a doctor.
Highly recommend, I went here for my first annual check up and Sarah was my dr that checked me over. she made me feel very welcomed & comfortable, she also answered all the questions i had. 10/10 . the 2 ladies at the front desk were great as well !
All teams are amazing and friendly ...Special thanks to Dr, Bryce just she is Awesome 🙏
Ive searched high and low since moving here 9 years ago for a place like this. Dr. Bellamy was simply awesome. She made my entire experience smooth and enjoyable. Dr. Bellamy listened to my long list of concerns and addressed them all. The office space was spotless and super cute and welcoming. Front office staff was kind and Ive already recommended Dr. Bellamy to someone else.
I had my first visit with Dr Bellamy this week and she was wonderful. Everyone in the office was very friendly and kind. I was in and out quickly. Great experience.
Dr.. Hussain has such great bed side manner. She is very thorough and explains things so well. Her office staff, and nurses are excellent as well.
Amazing office! So happy I found them for my OBGYN needs.
I saw Dr. Hussain and she was very empathetic and helpful with my issues. I really have never had a good experience with gyn doc, but she was super friendly. I did not feel rushed, she addressed my concerns. Even gave me helpful advice to help with other aspects of my health. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family.
I Saw Dr Benor and he’s very knowledgeable and nice. He listens and has good treatment ideas. I had to make my appointment online because no one answers the phone and don’t call you back so that’s frustrating. But thankful to the online appointments.
Ive been very happy with my experience at Advantia thus far. We recently gave birth to our 1st baby girl and Dr. Ampey couldnt have made us feel more comfortable along the way. She helped to make delivery easy, checked in on us frequently during and after labor and explained everything she was doing as she was doing it. I have also enjoyed all of my appointments with Jennifer Clayton. She takes the time to encourage you to ask any and all questions - even the stupid ones!
Ive always been pleased with Dr. Hussains care over the years, but my most recent experience with the administrative staff was an exception and appreciated. After a mere 15 minutes behind schedule, one of the receptionists came from around the counter and over to me to let me know they were sorry for the delay and it shouldnt take much longer. (Who does that personal courtesy anymore?!?) Thank you!And a BIG thank you for vastly improving your portal and online registration procedures. The app is definitely one of the smartest Ive experienced for healthcare portals.
Dr. Hussain is one of the absolute best doctors I have ever seen. She is kind, compassionate, thorough, and professional, and she has been so for all of the 20 years Ive known her. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
The office staff was nice, but I asked for a female doc and a male doc was whom I saw after asking to see a female. I also got a large bill for services that were billed but were never rendered. That to me is very fishy! My doc who I saw was only at office for a month so I couldn’t even figure out why I was billed!
We moved to the area recently, and my wife booked with this practice as a new patient. She first booked with Dr. Bellamy, and they canceled her appointment twice and then booked her with someone else. They scheduled a follow up procedure at 9:00 am, and canceled it at 9:20 am when she was in the waiting room because the doctor was not available. Did she suddenly become unavailable at 9:20 am? They couldnt have called earlier? Both of us had to miss work meetings for this appointment, but they just cancel as they please with no regard for the patient. I am beyond disappointed with this practice.
The facilities are clean and comfortable. The office staff is personable, friendly and efficient. Dr. Amy Ampey is a wonderful, warm, caring and knowledgeable doctor. She is lightning quick when responding to questions via the patient portal or posting test results. She takes the time to thoroughly answer questions or address concerns without making you feel rushed. I trust her completely and feel confident in her care. I would recommend her to anyone.
Dr Bellamy is absolutely amazing. She is empathetic, a great listener, and an amazing educator. She genuinely cares about her patients and their needs, I appreciate her and the rest of her staff so much.
Dr. Prosper has superior knowledge in her field, attentive to what I had to say and acknowledging of my concerns. My visit was done with care and efficacy. Thank you.
I have been Dr. Hussains patient for the last few years and I really appreciate her care. She cares about her patients, is very knowledgeable and resourceful. She takes the time to listen to you, and I believe her and her team is very capable in providing the best care for women. The Shady Grove clinic is well equipped, clean and well organized.
Love this place! I have had about 3 appointments with them now, and I feel like they have the best staff! The layout of the hospital campus can be a bit confusing but the care and time the staff dedicates to their patients is simply amazing! You definitely notice their hard work and strong work ethic when you walk through the doors of the office, up until you leave!
Dr. Fei Huang is amazing, she is a talented OB GYN who managed my care with professionalism and warm bedside manner. Her positivity and humor instilled confidence in me as I was pregnant and a bit anxious about the delivery process. At every turn, she reassured me and also offered me option/s where she could take steps to help make my labor and delivery smoother. I highly recommend her.Overall the office is clean, as they are practicing good measures during COVID (spreading out chairs, online check-ins, telemedicine etc.)
I’ve had two kids with this practice my first kid in 2018 everything was perfect The front desk is wonderful has always been. The nursing assistant of dr Huang is beyond rude and talks over you and when you ask for more help they ignore you. They over book times so your waiting in the waiting room for an hour before being seen then when you get in the room they rush you. When you ask them to send prescriptions or a note they take forever. Dr Huang & dr Bellamy ignored my wife’s medical problems for months leaving my wife in pain and with bigger problems after delivery. DO NOT PICK ADVANTIA AS YOUR OBGYN
Dr. Ampey is the best! I started seeing her after I turned 18, my mother has her as her doctor so she suggested her to me. I have been going to her ever since and would not ever consider changing doctors. She makes me feel extremely comfortable and that is a big thing for me. I also love how whenever I have a medical question or emergency, through the patient portal she is always so quick to get back to me/help me with what I need. I go to the Shady Grove location now because it is closer to my work, super nice office and the receptionist was very kind and helpful. You wont regret going to this practice- everyone is great.
The staff and doctors are all amazing. Dr. Huang delivered my baby, and she was amazing through the entire process, she is caring and compassionate. I also saw Dr. Hussain throughout my visit and she was great as well. I highly recommend this practice!
The doctors are amazing. Ive seen both Drs. Hussain and Ampey regularly and felt perfectly comfortable with both of them. They are very respectful and patient with all my crazy questions and even when I tell them I need to rush out they are still calm the whole time while working quickly and efficiently. The office staff is kind and helpful. The time in the waiting room can sometimes be long, but its tough to find a practice where all doctors are great so its worth it.
My first visit to Advantia Shady Grove....the office was very inviting and professional. . Dr. Bellamy was very pleasant and made my first visit quite reassuring and relaxed. I shared how my former Doctor recently retired and choosing a new physician was a little nerve racking !I am happy to say I feel I made a great choice! 👍🏽 Free parking, and easily accessible to public transportation. Located nexted door to Shady Grove Hospital !
It was my first visit to the practice since my Doctor I had seen for the last 32 years had retired from the practice last year... And my first time seeing Dr. Amy Ampley. I can tell you that I was completely at ease with her and felt as though I was not meeting her for the first time. I felt as if I had known her for a long time. She is a warm and caring person who took the time to explain whatever procedure she was going to do and is genuinely interested as you as a person. It is a very efficently runpractice ...and you will be treated well!This was my first review from last year and I just had my second visit with Dr. Amy and feel exactly the same way! The offices are new and quite lovely and the changes they made are a great improvement...thanks to the friendly staff and to Dr Amy for another pleasant encounter!
Switched to this office from another OB practice and I am so glad I did. Dr. Hussain and Dr. Ampey are wonderful. This is my first pregnancy and they have given me all the support as professionals that I have needed and on top of that are sweet, caring and empathetic. I appreciate being treated like a real person and human and not just another patient or chart. Office staff is all really nice too, it is comforting to know that you have an office that all around cares about the impression they give the patient as opposed to other offices where office staff is terrible to deal with. I am getting used to the new Nurse Practitioner who seems to fit in well with the doctors and has the same caring personality.
I absolutely LOVE doctor Ampey! In addition to her warm personality and top-notch care, she does a fantastic job of replying to all of her messages through the patient portal. The few times Ive had questions, Ive been able to get a response from her within 24 hours. On another occasion when I was unable to make it into the office she arrange for a video call. Excellent service!
I have been going to this practice since over a year when I first got pregnant, I have loved the service and staff, especially Dr. Zarina Hussain is very experienced, sensitive, has great bedside manners and was one of the reasons I went to this practice. She explains everything very well and is very patient with responding to your questions. Staff is very cordial as well. I had a smooth pregnancy and labor and delivery with the practitioners at this clinic. Highly recommend Dr. Hussain to anyone looking for an OBGyn in the Rockville, MD area.
Dr. Zarina Hussain is very polite and has great bedside manners. She listens to you patiently. She is very gentle, caring and knowledgeable.Her enthusiasm and passion for her work is obvious. She is very cheerful and provides customized care that’s right for you. She will not blindly put you through tests if you don’t need them :) which is so common in this area!I had my first baby delivered by Dr. Hussain and she is wonderful, I highly recommend her.Rest of their team is good too the front desk is very warm and welcoming!
Very disappointing experience. Poor customer service, several delays from the time you get your test results until someone contacts you to communicate the information. Reached out for a prescription refill and sounds that it takes days for someone to find time to authorize a refill. Overall, in my experience there is no real attention paid to the patient and no follow through. Recommend to find yourself a better provider.
Very friendly and like how my visit went thru out very nice place
I’ve been going to Dr. Ampey for years, and I absolutely LOVE her! She is so attentive during every single visit and she has the sweetest personality ever. I never have a long wait time in the office which I really appreciate too. Dr. Ampey does a great job at listening and truly makes you feel so important/comfortable. I refer all my friends and family to her because I know they will be well taken care of!
Providers don’t look at patients by appointment but at their convenience.They cancel appointment if I’mLate by 5mins but they always make me wait in lobby and the examination room for more than 40mins by double booking the appointments.They don’t even let the spouse be the part of visits.I don’t recommend the office for OB patients when we want aDr. Zareena was very kind and friendly but she is not accepting any OB patients now.
Dr. Hussain is the best! She really takes her time during appointments and it never feels rushed. She makes you feel like you’re her only patient that day. She’s got incredible bedside manner, managing to be both honest and gracious. She was wonderful throughout my pregnancy, delivery, and beyond!
Updating my review. Ive been going here for over 3 years. Dr Hussain and Ampey provided great care... But the rest of the practice seems to be going downhill. I think maybe their reputation grew and they got too many patients and didnt expand properly? The last few visits of my second pregnancy, the wait was ridiculously long. I was in the waiting room for 45+ min, and the medical room for another 20+, before being seen at all. No explanation or apologies. Barely anyone there. And the visits were all of 5 minutes long. I honestly think they forget youre there, or they just dont care. We all understand, emergencies come up, but this seems to be the norm, now. Dont expect a nice and speedy visit. The staff at the desk are cold and uncaring (I miss the woman with the blonde bob who used to work the desk, a couple years ago. She was amazing). It no longer feels like an intimate, caring experience here. I think Ill continue going for the time being, because of Dr Hussain, but if I encounter billing/booking/front desk problems, Ill switch.****************So far, Dr. Hussain is very sweet and personable. Same can be said about the receptionist - very helpful.
I followed Dr. Hussain from her previous practice, her bed-side manners are great and she truly cares about you and is very patient. So happy for her and Dr. Ampey on their new practice and so glad Dr. Hussain is able to see me through my second baby. Highly recommend both doctors! Simply amazing at what they do!
Dr Hussain has been my doctor for almost a decade now and delivered by son. Shes extremely kind and gentle and always takes her time speaking with and completely remembers me. I couldn’t recommend her and her group practice any more. They are the best.
I have been a patient of Dr Zarina Hussains for many years (15+) and highly recommend her. I have had such kind and comprehensive care and trust her totally. She listens, takes time with me and is so knowledgeable, and she is very gentle. I cant say enough good things about her professionally and personally. She is a doctor who has not forgotten that each patient is a human being, not just a numbered chart!
Im sad to have to give Dr. Hussain a one star rating because I think shes a great doctor. However her office is a complete mess and is causing me to find another doctor.Yesterday I had a 3 oclock appointment. I received a call from the office staff at 10 am saying they had to reschedule. I completely understand that emergencies happen and albeit annoying, I called to reschedule. It took 3 calls for someone in the office to finally answer the phone and when they did they told me that they didnt call and leave me a message saying this. It wasnt until about 5 minutes later on the phone that they told me they had changed my appointment so that it was at the same time but just with the nurse practitioner.Since this was just a check up and i wasnt having any major issues, I was fine with that but asked if I could see her earlier. The only time they had was 1 oclock and they informed me that if I was late to my appointment I would be charged a late fee and potential have my appointment cancelled. So I kept my original 3 oclock appointment.I arrived to the office at around 2:50. At 3:00 I was taken back to a room and told to undress and wait for the NP. 30 minutes later I was still waiting. No one from the office popped in to tell me they were running late. After 5 more minutes I decided to redress and go to the front to speak to someone in charge.I was told by front office staff that Jennifer was finishing with a patient and that I would be next. It took an additional 10 minutes for the he to finally get to my room.She was rushing and unapologetic for her lateness. It was now 45 minutes past my scheduled appointment. The NP spent about 2 minutes in the room with me including my exam. When I asked to change medicines because of some side effects, she essentially told me she wanted me to stay on my current medicine for another year to see if things changed....ANOTHER YEAR?!?I just dont understand how if Im late I get charged but this office thinks it is okay to be 45 and then not listen to my concerns.
I had a great experience again with Dr. Ampey. She has been my doctor for more than 10 years and delivered both my girls. It was my first visit this location and I really like it even it is longer commute for me. Everybody was very friendly and helpful. I did my blood test there and it was very convenient also. Dr. Ampey always spends enough time to talk and I never feel to be rushed. She is my doctor forever!
I visited Dr Hussein today and as always she is very professional and a warm person, she takes the time to listen to you.Her demeanor is very pleasant, I have known her for over 15 years, despite my Senior years, she is still interested in giving me her opinion and always the right diagnosis.Great Doctor!👍
I have been seeing Dr. Ampey for many years because she considers a womans entire health picture including issues that arise with aging. Very knowledgeable and kind! The employees at the practice all reflect this commitment. Dr. Hussain helped our daughter through a difficult pregnancy, and we are so grateful for our wonderful grandson.
I was seen right on time and the front desk staff was very friendly. Ive been seeing Dr. Hussain for many years and she is always thorough and professional as well as friendly. She is truly interested in her patients which these days is a rare quality.
If I could give 10 start I would! Dr. Ampey is simply the best. She made my pregnancy such a great experience. I felt confident, calm and even loved from day 1 with her. She was always there for me, taking time to talk to me, explain everything, answer all my questions or responding to my messages online. I wanted to deliver with her only and she was with me for this extremely important moment and helped me so much. I couldnt be more grateful! The office staff was also very friendly and nice, I enjoy visiting this office and recommend Dr. Ampey to everyone.
Dr. Hussain has been my doctor for 18 years now. She is by far the best doctor I have had throughout my life. She is not only professional and so great at what she does, and I have always trusted her with everything I had questions about. Throughout the years, I have seen Dr. Ampey a handful of times and shes always been great too. I highly recommend both Dr. Hussain and Dr. Ampey!
I went to the Olney Office and I really liked Dr. Hussain. Shes very pleasant and the staff seems to be as well.I had my second visit today and I absolutely love this group.Dr. Hussain is very thorough. I have complete confidence in her and her practice.The staff is very pleasant; the whole office runs like a well oiled machine.The building, the waiting room, the examination room very clean!
Impersonal providers, unprofessional front desk staff, and extremely long wait times for both appointments and lab work.
Dr. Bellamy is amazing, the office is reasonably accommodating, and I got this impression based upon my first visit. I felt like I was in good hands as this was my first OB/GYN visit.
It is very difficult to find an OB that you trust and feel comfortable with, especially moving from a different state and already establishing a great relationship with your previous OB in your home town. I came across Advantia OB-GYN and have been seeing Dr. Elena Bryce since I was 5 weeks pregnant. She immediately made me feel comfortable by listening and answering all my questions each visit. I had a few complications and she educated me well and reassured me when I was feeling nervous. Not only did she deliver my baby with such care, she also saved my life when I had postpartum complications and needed to be readmitted. Dr. Bryce catches every sign right away and acts immediately to prevent further complications. My husband got the chance to meet her during delivery and he was so glad that I found Dr. Bryce as my OB-GYN. We are forever thankful for her. She is the best OB-GYN! Aside from pregnancy, she is also a great GYN and attends to every detail of concerns. I am so happy I found her and I definitely recommend her if you are considering a new OB-GYN!
Very unprofessional service. My wife went there to do the first checkup after becoming pregnant and the way the first visit is just unacceptable. Doctor Elena was on checking her phone while talking to my wife and kept referring to read some information in the brochure when my wife asked her specific questions.On top of this, Im moving my wife to my medical insurance and we should have it by end of this week. But, this doctors kept saying that they would not do blood and other tests because we do not have insurance yet. How can doctor refuse to do service based on the fact that there is no insurance yet, and we are capable of paying out of pocket???This is very insulting!Very bad ethics and service. Stay away from them!!!
I thought that the office staff including Dr. Ampeys nurse was very friendly when I arrived. The office is a comfortable environ.Dr. Ampey is very friendly and focused her attention to what questions I had related to what I should expect as I age.She made my visit to be a comfortable one as I get nervous whenever I go to a doctors appointment. She makes it a point to come back into the room that I was examined in rather than to have me go to her office. I greatly appreciate that.
I had more experiences with Dr Ampey over Dr Hussein but they were both fantastic! I had planned on moving out of state before giving birth to my first child but rearranged my plans in anticipation of a successful first birthing experience with Dr Ampey. She always has answers to my questions and puts me at ease with her peaceful demeanor. I will be recommending her to anyone that asks!
Dr Elena Bryce was very professional on our first visit. I do extremely appreciate the time she took to explain to us the procedures and treatments.Thanks so much
Dr.patel is amazing. She made sure to always make me feel comfortable and answer all my questions. Always responded to my questions when I would email her. Most importantly always took the best care of me and made sure my daughter was healthy when born. Also staff is super friendly and I got to meet most of the doctors in the silver spring location and they were all great also! Definitely will keep going to this location!!!!
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Ampey’s since about 2008. She and Dr. Hussain delivered my first child in Olney. (Things went downhill when MeStar got involved) I’m SO glad they started their own practice. They are kind, caring, thorough, and responsive (on the patient portal). I had to reschedule and couldn’t see Dr. Ampey so I met the new doctor today, Dr. Rafquie, and she seemed lovely as well. Because they are so wonderful it can be difficult to get last minute appointments such as in my case. But I have no doubt that Drs. Ampey and Hussain would staff their office with only the best. I also LOVE that they now have a mental health counselor onsite - they are invested in comprehensive health care. And the new office space at shady grove is lovely!
I was originally a patient of Dr. Taubman who retired at the end of 2016 (miss you Dr. T!) and now Im a patient of Dr. Ampey, who is absolutely amazing. I have had lots of medical issues (some scary, some just plain annoying) and she has been a wonderful partner for me in getting those things resolved. On a couple of occasions I have made appointments with Dr. Ampey just so I can go into her office and ask questions about whats going on and what I should be thinking about or doing next. She is always incredibly professional, patient and engaged, she explains everything thoroughly, and gives excellent recommendations to other docs when needed. I really couldnt ask for a better doctor.
From the moment i arrived i felt important. The front desk is always very welcoming and this is a direct reflection of the doctors.Dr. Ampey is the utmost professional and truly cares about my well being. I highly recommend this practice!
My experience with Dr. Huang wasnt great, but Dr. Hussain is amazing, and my experiences with Dr. Ampey and Jennifer have been great too. Dr. Hussain delivered my first baby, and Im going back to her with my second because my experience with her and Adventist Shady Grove were so positive.
My nurses were absolutely wonderful and never made me feel silly for asking so many questions. They showed true concern, passion, and competence I feel so many hospital personel are missing these days. When I began to get nervous they did their best to personally assuage my fears and get me ready for my procedure. Thank you to all my nurses (who I was too out of it to remember) even though he was newer he clearly had great teachers there. Dr Amy Ampey is the kindest most amazing doctor. I would choose to go back here instead of Montgomery General or even Sibley memorial.
Very nice and professional staff! Dr. Fie Huang is Amazing and has a great sense of humor which made my 1st time visit very comfortable! Also, True to appointment times! I had a 10:30 appt and was seen at 10:30. Thats very important with my schedule.
Dr. Ampey is the best OB/GYN I have ever had as my doctor. I have been her patient for over ten years. She takes my health seriously, thoughtfully, and respectfully and has successfully addressed any issue I have ever had, whether minor or significant. She is now seeing my daughter as well and provided solutions that other doctors missed. I would give more than five stars if I could.
From the quick check-in and warm greeting by Dr. Ampey to the efficient and caring exam, my yearly GYN visit was a very pleasant experience. Im always apprehensive prior to these exams but Dr. Ampey quickly puts me at ease and truly cares about my feelings and well-being. She is the best and the practice is very cordial and well-run.
I have been going to Dr. Ampey for more than 12 years. She is warm, personable and extremely knowledgeable practitioner. Her competence and caring literally saved my life once. She always takes the time to fully answer any questions I have and see how I am doing. The office staff at Olney is very efficient and helpful. Couldnt ask for a better experience.
I found the office staff and doctor to be very efficient and courteous.I felt like I received a very thorough examination and Dr. Hussain answered all my questions. She also explained in detail my most recent mammography and provided me with the paper work to schedule next years mammography.It is a pleasant office atmosphere.
Staffs are very friendly and attentive and efficient from front desk to nurse and doctor. We didn’t have to wait long before seeing the dr. We had a very pleasant experience during the visit and definitely will visit this office again when needed.
Dr. Hussain is very personable, knowledgeable, practical and thorough. She took the time for follow up discussion and did not make me feel like she was rushing through the appointment to get to the next patient.Communications with the office staff were pleasant and efficient.
Dr. Ampey is THE best. She helps you feel comfortable, answers any and all questions, responds quickly on the portal and listens to your health concerns. Ive been seeing her for 15 years and will never go to another doctor. This new office is well run, clean, convenient, and the staff is friendly. Highly recommend.
Dr. Hussain and Dr. Ampey delivered 2 of my babies. I have had the best experience under their care. They are so experienced and such amazing doctors. I couldnt have been in better hands. Both my deliveries seemed so easy because of them. I highly recommend their practice.
Jennifer Clayton is AWESOME. The search for a good GYN can be super tough, if it is not the right fit it can be very uncomfortable. I put off the search for a while but when it came time to get my IUD replaced, I knew I had to find someone. Jennifer is a GREAT doctor and a very kind person. She made me feel totally comfortable, and made sure twice that all my questions and concerns were addressed. I highly recommend her anyone who is looking for a doctor!
I’ve been a patient here for years and love the practice. The staff, technicians and doctors are so kind and friendly. They listen to questions and concerns and have never made me feel rushed. Office is clean and well run, and they are always timely to see appointments. I would highly recommend!
Front desk was very professional and apparently well seasoned when it comes to handling patients. Of course visiting with Dr. Hussain is always a pleasure regardless of my reason for the visit. I trust her completely and have been a patient with her for over 10 years.
My first time at this practice. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The nurse practitioner I saw was great. She really took the time to get to know you and to learn of your health. I also took the genetic testing bloodwork right in their office and it was explained to me very well. Id highly recommend them to friends and family.Im changing my rating. Ive been being billed for services I didnt have, that I actually declined, and also for lab work for a routine female exam where I shouldnt have a copay. Also, I had blood work drawn for a genetic disease screening and they forgot to send it in-so my sample went bad and they wanted me to go back in to have more blood drawn. I didnt. Enough already.
I chose this OB office at the start of my pregnancy due to the great Google reviews. Unfortunately, my experience here was far from ideal. At 21 weeks pregnant, I transferred to a new practice, and have been so happy that I made the switch out of Advantia’s care. After multiple instances of “lost” lab work, lab work not being sent in for culture resulting in having to come in to leave extra samples, no follow up phone calls, unanswered emails, me having to call multiple days in a row to check in about results while being told they “weren’t back yet”, only to find out almost a week later that samples were never even sent- this happened more than once. I ended up on multiple rounds of antibiotics in early pregnancy due to delays in treatment from the incompetence. On top of this, the front desk staff while mostly polite, has some issues with general customer service such as taking a second to acknowledge your coming and going. The only person at this practice who actually seemed to care and called me to apologize for all the issues, while expressing her own frustration with it all, was NP Jennifer Clayton. I appreciated the follow up from her when I ultimately decided to leave. However, I’d avoid this practice if you are pregnant and hoping for a basic level of care and attention throughout your pregnancy.
If I could give 0 stars for this place. Doctor Bellamy is a neglient and unprofessional individual whose ability should be questioned and at this point outright avoided if you value not only your babies life but your own as well.
Have been seeing Dr Zarina Hussain for about 18 years and have followed her from Mt Airy to Montgomery County. There was a bit of a wait today, however, the one thing about Dr Hussain is that she does not rush you and all questions and concerns will be addressed. Which is worth whatever time you have to sit in the waiting room ( bring a book and relax - if youre like me, you hardly ever get to do that ). The offices and rooms were clean and the staff very pleasant and professional. A plus service.
Have been a patient of Dr. Hussain/Dr. Ampeys for the last 12 years. Theyve recently made a transition that I couldnt be more happy about! I have that high level of care and professionalism with them. I trust them 100% and would highly recommend!! They have both provided me reassurance with my regular care and exceptional help and care during my pregnancies. I wouldnt go elsewhere!
Dr.Hussain is the most knowledgeable and caring doctor I’ve ever had. She is very great at answering all my questions and always shows that she understands all my concerns and addresses them very well...to the point where I no longer worry after talking with her. Her Medical Assistant Jessica C. Is also full of energy and great with patient care. I live in Annapolis, but will always make it out to see Dr.Hussain! I highly recommend this doctor:)
I feel eternally grateful to have Dr. Hussain as my OB-GYN. She is very patient in answering all my questions, flexible on her recommendations based on my comfort levels, and never pushes medications unnecessarily. Most importantly, she supported me through a healthy pregnancy, delivery, and post partum care. She genuinely cares for her patients, and provides personalized and thoughtful care.. Im extremely lucky! She is also incredibly knowledgeable and I was comforted by her guidance.
I have been seeing Dr. Hussein for several years, through two pregnancies, and she is wonderful! She is personable, professional, and very approachable. At my first appointment with her at Advantia, the practice seemed well-run and I was seen almost exactly at my appointment time.
I have been a patient of Dr. Ampey for over 10 years. I love how she is caring and professional at the same time. When I found out that she has her own practice with Advantia OB-GYN...without hesitation I followed her. She is the best OB-GYN doctor I ever had. The staff at her Shady Grove location are nice and respectful too. The location of her office is easy to get to as well.
I started coming here when we found out that I was pregnant. All of the doctors and providers are so kind and they truly care! I love that they have water and tea in the waiting room though Ive never had to wait too long. Everyone at the front desk is helpful too. Note: Parking is free the first 3 hours.
Dr. Amy Ampey is simply amazing! Ive been a patient for well of a decade and she has consistently displayed professionalism, kindness, attentiveness and she treats her patients more like family members (and not a patient number). This sort of doctor/patient relationship is very important as its a womans most personal side of life, so its nice to have a doctor who is compassionate and you feel completely comfortable with. She really goes the extra mile to ensure Im on top of all aspect of my health - including my Crohns Disease. Its like a great friend ... who you may not see Often, but when you do catch up - she remembers specifics and you can immediately pick up and understand one another! Ive referred many over the years because she and her loyal staff are the best!
I’ve been attending Advantia since Feb 2019 about 8 weeks pregnant at the time w/ an estimated due date of Sept 20th. I was nervous about rotating 4 doctors during my pregnancy but it turned out to be more than okay. All 4 of them are wonderful and I am totally confident in any of them delivering my baby boy. They do deliveries based on whose on call. They have an online portal where you can communicate with any of the doctors with questions or concerns and they respond in a decent amount of time. It’s pretty easy to book unexpected appointments ASAP if needed. They also have a sonogram room on site. I don’t give a 5 star rating as I haven’t delivered yet and that’s an experience in itself. I will be updating this post after child birth. There is also a free tour to the maternity level in the main hospital which you can access from the OB office. Mine is upcoming soon and I can’t wait! Great staff. Gigi is an awesome sano tech extremely personable. The lady at the front desk with natural curly hair is so caring and wonderful.
Dr. Bryce is very professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. Easy to talk to. The clinic is clean and organized.
I tried scheduling an appointment with Dr. Fei Huang on ZocDoc twice, and they cancelled twice on me. When I finally arrived to my appointment, they held my appointment off for an additional half hour due to more scheduling conflicts with the doctor. When I finally got to see the doctor, the nurse was very sweet and took my blood pressure, but the appointment with the doctor was at most 10 minutes long(even though Im a new patient), and seemed very dismissive of my concerns. She also actually made me feel very uncomfortable with some of the questions she asked me regarding my personal life. Towards the end, I felt very uneasy, and I actually regret coming here. Word of advice: dont come here.
My name is Esther, I actually regret switching to this practice.Because I moved so I had to find one thats under shadygrove. If you want a practice that cares and follows up with their patients DO NOT go there. When u have critical lab values or test results no one calls u, they expect u to go to the portal( what about patients who have no clue about the medical field?). I am almost 9months pregnant and has not been able to see or schedule an appointment for about two months&no one notices. You go to the emergency room and they dont even call to speak with the patient, if u get a call it will be at discharge. My perinatal associates specialist cannot even get a hold of them to follow up with my plan of care. I had to walk up to their office for them to realize that I havent been seen in 2months, this pandemic even makes it worse. And thats when I scheduled my c-section, hopefully God almighty helps me through this delivery because I DO NOT TRUST them at all and I am so nervous, I am quite sure they have no idea about my medical history because theyve asked me to fill out the authorization forms 2 or more times now. Gave them my leave forms no one knows where it is. I am so so disappointed. This page is not enough at all to describe how inefficient they are. Dr. Huang is the worse of them all, they might be well educated but management is zero%.
Had a great first appointment here. Switched to this practice mid pregnancy because I was tired of receiving care from an organization where I felt like I was nothing more than a number. The doctors and staff at advantia take the time to explain everything and make you feel like they actually care. Although there are many places much closer to me, Ill gladly continue to drive the 15 miles and up 270 to come to this place. Would highly recommend.
I will NEVER settle for than the absolute best healthcare, especially when health insurance is ridiculously expensive. I chose this location for my OB because of the excellent reviews for Dr. Hussain, dont be fooled youll prob rarely see her unless your willing to wait or schedule far in advance. Youll see the NP. 1st issue is when you call, if someone answers after calling 3/4 times, there has always been an attitude when asking questions. My next issue is being taken up the the clinical manager after the sonogram tech left when my appointment was 3. I arrived 13mins late and she had left. Im not comfortable that Ill receive quality care here so Im no longer a patient after yesterday. Some changes definitely need to be made, no pregnant woman should be stressed when it comes to her doctors appointments.
Absolutely zero stars. first time being seen at this office and waited over an hour to see dr.bellamy. I was there for over THREE hours. being called in every direction for blood testing, sonogram, urine sample, and examination. The office was very unorganized with every receptionist and nurse telling me something different. the doctor didnt even care to go over important foods or medications to avoid. or asking if I had any serious questions or concerns. waiting for blood test results after being told I might have had a miscarriage and NO ONE calling me and updating me. every time I have called, no one can give me an answer. what a joke. the lady doing my sonogram was very rude, abrupt, and didnt explain anything. dr. bellamy did explain everything that was going on during the exam which I appreciated, but just seemed in a rush to get to the next patient. please do not go here. first time being pregnant and what a terrible experience.
Dr. Bellamy and staff are awesome! Very warm and welcoming and the office is super clean and nice environment. I highly recommend this team to anyone who needs a good GYN!
Dr. Zarina Hussain was so nice and personable. She listened, asked if I had any questions, and gave me a few suggestions. After my medical exam, she had me sit in her office while she reviewed everything. How nice! Ive never experienced that!
This place is a mess, please stay away from this practice. They always over booked, cancel your appointment at the last minute, leave you in the exam room for over an hour. I had appointment today, and I got there at 11:45am, the nurse put me in the exam room and left me for over 40 min, and came back to the room and said “you still here”. All I can tell you is leave this place alone and get your appointment somewhere else.
I unfortunately cannot recommend this practice, my friend recently suffered through horrible treatment and negligence that landed them in the ER when it couldve been completely avoided if the doctor had excercised more due dilligence.
Dr Huang is a terrific doctor but the office staff are a mess . Disappointing to say the least . 3-4 weeks ago, the Dr told me I would receive a call from a scheduler who would schedule me for a surgery . The call never came . Meanwhile was in pain and bleeding heavily and had to get a Hematologist’s intervention. I decided to find another GYN and requested for my medical records . Imagine my horror when someone from this office called me to say they would not release my medical records until I pay $288 that I owe to the practice. Patients do have the RIGHT to see their medical records . Some of the office staff there represent the practice in a pretty bad way . They are not well trained, ignorant of the rights of patients. The manager there promised to release my records only after I flipped. I’m still waiting.
I absolutely love Dr. AMPEY. she has been taking care of me since 2006 when I got pregnant with my 1st child and Im pregnant with my 4th and final and of course she is the one I go to for me and baby. I would follow her anywhere. I cant describe how thankful I am for her. She and her practice is wonderful and recommend her to anyone!
I cant say enough great things about Dr. Ampey and Dr. Hussain! Ive been seeing them for over a decade, and was happy to follow them when they started a new practice. Both women are smart, attentive, patient, good listeners, and just all around good people. The nurses and office staff are friendly and helpful. I highly recommend both doctors if youre looking for an OB-GYN in Montgomery County, MD.
Dr. Ampey delivered my first child 6 weeks ago and she was amazing! Just when you start to get tired from pushing and begin questioning things like can I do this? she provided the much needed motivation to keep going.My follow up postpartum check up went super easy and smooth, just like all of my pregnancy appointments.I couldnt imagine having another child in the future without choosing Advantia OB-GYN as my doctors again.
Dr. Hussain is my new gynecologist. Last week was my first appointment with her. She is personable, very professional and makes you feel comfortable. Answers all of your questions. She also has a sense of humor, which anyone who deals with me has to have!I highly recommend Dr. Hussain, as well as her colleague, Dr. Ampey.
I had my first visit with Dr. Amy Ampey today and she was incredible. She was so genuinely sweet and made me feel very comfortable. She took her time to talk to and explain things to me. She even complimented my tattoo which made me feel really good about myself. Thanks, Dr. Ampey! :)
I underwent surgery yesterday. From start to finish, Dr. Zarina Hussain and her staff provided excellent care and attention to my needs, questions, and concerns. The surgery went well. I thought a minute passed by when I woke up. The procedure was completed in an hour, but it only felt like 1 minute. There is no doubt in my mind that Dr. Hussain and her assistant Patti truly cared about my well-being and quality of life. Dr. Hussain has been my doctor for 12+ years. And I completely trust and rely on her for all my ob/gyn needs. Shes the best.
Good luck getting anyone to answer the phone. They leave you in hold for 10+ minutes and then either hang up or send you to voicemail.Oh, and cherry in top? They lost my test results, ie never got sent to the lab. This practice can’t even keep up with the basics of patient care. I won’t go back.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Ampey for about 3 years, after my retiring Ob/Gyn recommended her very highly. Dr. Ampey is personable, professional and caring; she is attentive and spends time with her patients and I trust that her medical recommendations are solely in my best interest. Office staff and PAs at the Shady Grove location are professional and extremely pleasant.
The best practice I have found! I have had to switch practices a few times because I felt like a patient on a conveyor belt with no support.This practice is convenient to schedule with, I can continue with them for my regular Gyn care and I am looking forward to Dr Hussein or Dr Ampey to be a doctor for my birth. Their bedside manners are calming and reassuring.
I really recommend this office. Dr. Hussain, CRNP Jennifer Clayton, the receptionist, and the sono tech are so nice and informative. The only reason I removed a star was because of one of the nurses that took my weight/blood pressure. I usually have a young nurse do that for me and shes the sweetest. The person that has been doing it lately (the first time) seems unfriendly. I do my best to be nice, have a smile, and thank her any time I get to but she always seem to have a sour face. I thought it was just that one encounter but lately it has been that way.
Dr Hussain is an excellent doctor, very knowledgeable, professional and caring. I came across her practice while in the middle of a medical emergency and she fit me in her schedule the same day. We just had our baby and Dr Hussain was my obgyn during the pregnancy. She was caring, attentive, respectful , knowledgeable and always answered my questions. The whole team in her practice was just very professional and caring. I will highly recommend Dr. Hussain.
Love this practice. Very clean. Staff is helpful and engaging. Only reason it’s not 5 stars is their booking system is not great. I used Zocdoc and it was much simpler.
As a returning patient to the Advantia OB-GYN Practice and Dr. Amy Ampey I am exceptionally impressed with my first time visit. The staff was very welcoming. Dr. Ampey was very professional and thorough. I wouldrecommend this team. I would rate them a 10+.RYB.
Dr. Ampey is the best OB-GYN I have ever had! She has been my doctor for 11 years and delivered my daughter. Every visit is very personal and caring and she makes me feeling extremely comfortable during the visits. I visit an Olney location and the staff is very friendly also. Great doctor and I know that I have my OB-GYN for life.
I have been going to Dr. Ampey for years. She is very knowledgeable and caring, and she listens carefully to any concerns you have. She never makes you feel rushed and treats you as if you are her only concern. Dr. Ampey has a very warm personality and she is very easy to talk to. I think she is the best!
I have been seeing Dr Ampey since 2003 and I been following her since then. I love all the doctors works at her practice. They all are great and I’m very much satisfied with all of them. I would recommend them to anyone who is seeking OB-GYN care.
Dr Prosper was very professional. I love this practice. theyre always very nice and caring.
I started going to this OBGYN office about a year back and during first trimester of my pregnancy I started visiting Dr Zarina. Dr Zarina isvery polite and caring. She is so thorough and takes lots of time to address everything. She is very kind and empathetic. I am so glad that I found such a great doctor.During second trimester of my pregnancy, when I caught complications , I was assignedDr.Saima Rafique and honestly I would not recommend a better doctor! Dr. Rafique is always attentive to my NUMEROUS needs and never hesitates to find a solution. It is so hard to find a good doctor and truly believe I found the best within her. She responds quickly to emails and shows so much interest in the condition of your health not only physically but mentally. Even after delivery when I had my health issues, she provided best solutions for my speedy recovery.Office is also quiet and extremely organized, from the front desk to the back office staff.I would recommend others to visit this Office and AWESOME doctors
Dr. Hussain is a fabulous doctor. Great bedside manner, down to earth, kind, smart, willing to listen, and provides great advice are all of Dr. Hussains qualities. Shes delivered two of my children and asks about them - by name - when I go in for my annuals. Shes a great doctor and person! I would definitely recommend her.
Im going to to a 1 star to this OB practice because they don’t allow EXCLUSIVELY BREASTFED NEWBORNS in their office. The doctors are great but the fact that they don’t allow EXCLUSIVELY BREASTFED BABIES, is infuriating. This office basically says they don’t care about the fact that your exclusively breastfeeding they still won’t allow your baby in the appointment with you.
I love this practice! Dr. Ampey, Dr. Hussain, and CRNP Jennifer Clayton are simply amazing. Sono tech Gigi is fantastic as well as other staff I met during my visits. I always look forward to seeing them and have recommended this practice to my friends on multiple occasions.
Dr. Ampey met with my daughter and I in a timely manner - very short wait in the waiting room. She expressed concern about the reason for our visit and offered thoughtful solutions. Both my daughter and I felt very comfortable with her concern and expertise.
My visit was with Dr Ampey! She is smart and has a sweet personality! She addressed my concerns that my other OBGYN did not. She came up with a plan immediately and also told me to do follow ups that no other doctor recommended. There’s a difference between her and other physicians that makes this practIce unique.
I have blessed with a baby girl on 11th March 2019 and I have almost recovered within 4 weeks of my C section . Thanks a load to Amy Ampey for her perfection in the surgery!Also my heart felt Thanks to Dr. Zarina Hussain and Dr. Saima Rafique for their continuous care n support!Last but not least, a bunch of Thanks to GiGi, Jodi , Jo and other staffs of Advantia who all together give a nice n comfortable environment to all the patients !Im so happy with all the services of Advantia .Im in the 37th week of my pregnancy. In the last two months, I had great experiences during my appointments with Dr. Saima Rafique and Dr. Amy Ampey. Both of them are so friendly , caring n patiently listening to every concern and trying their best to answer any questions!Also want to thank the front desk ladies Jodie n Jo for making a friendly environment during waiting time n comfortable in discussing any issues regarding billing/ appointment scheduling.A big Thanks to GiGi for making every Ultrasound a smooth and easy!I like the humor Dr. Amy Ampy bring during the check up!Im really satisfied with Advantia OB- GYN services. I have great experince wirh Jennifer and Dr. Zarina Hussain for all my visits. I have my next visit with Dr. Ampey.Im Thankful to God and one of my friend who gave me a very good feedback of Dr. Zarrina Hussain of Advantia OB-GYN practice , so that I could able to take a step to change my initial practitioner .Now Im in my 27th week of pregnancy. Initially I was not aware of Advantia Shady Groove( I was new to Maryland), that is just 1.3 miles from my home. For my 1st trimester, I was going to Med star that was 4.6 miles from my home. After 2 visit, I came to know that my delivery is going to happen in Medstar, Olney which is 25 mins drive from my place . I have requested my Dr for my change in practice which will be associated to Shady Groove Hospital, but she made me convince not to change and they are going to take care of my case . But I was not at all happy with their services , very high fees for each and every services compared to better practices like Advantia Shady Groove and also the waiting time is unpredictable.Here in Advantia , the waiting time is too less and the staffs are much more professionals compared to others. So Im very happy n satisfied with Advantia now.Im sure Ill have a great experience in delivering my baby with the help of Dr. Zarrina Hussain, Dr. Amy Ampey n Dr. Saima Rafique
Dr. Hussain was delivering a baby during my scheduled office visit time. The office staff (and Dr.) apologized profusely. I was given updates on a regular basis as to how much longer it might be. It was not a big deal to me - babies come when they are ready!!! The office staffs attitude made all the difference in the world. LOVE this office and Dr.!
This was my first appointment with Dr Ampey. It was very easy to talk with her about my test results. She explained things well and patiently addressed all my questions and concerns. It was a very positive experience and I am pleased to have her as my doctor.
I was happy to meet Jennifer a new member of the team. She is a nurse practitioner and a great addition to Advantia OB-GYN. I was supposed to see Dr. Ampey who I love, but she had to leave for a delivery. Jennifer made me feel so comfortable and like I have known her for years. I highly recommend this practice.
Love the staff here. Everyone is very friendly and educated. The doctors and nurses pay attention to detail and will actually give you answers which is a breath of fresh air. Also, getting lab work done is a breeze. They know how to use needles 🙂Recommend this practice for everyone.
These doctors and physicians care about your well being--theyre patient, courteous, and are experts in their particular field. I feel very comfortable in going to this practice.
Dr. Ampey is so wonderful. She feels like a friend, not a cold Dr with no time. She spends all the time you need, answers all questions and is so efficient. Greta practice, great staff, great office to work with!
I personally started going to this OBGYN office about 4 months back and was assigned Dr.Saima Rafique and honestly I would not recommend a better doctor! The office is also quiet and extremely organized, from the front desk to the back office staff. Dr. Rafique is always attentive to my NUMEROUS needs and never hesitates to find a solution. It is so hard to find a good doctor and truly believe I found the best within her. She responds quickly to emails and shows so much interest in the condition of your health not only physically but mentally. Great Office even more AWESOME doctor!
Could not have had a better experience with the OBs and practice at Advantia Shady Grove for the management of my pregnancy and birth of my daughter. The providers, nurses, front desk staff, and sonogram technicians were all incredibly personable, professional, and helpful during and after my pregnancy. I definitely plan to return to this practice for future needs.
Dr. Amy Ampey with the staff colleagues run a terrific OB-GYN practice. Todays visit ran smoothly and on time, starting with courteous and attentive reception at front desk, prompt measurement of vitals by the tech, then the time with Dr. Ampey was well used, thorough, and informative. I was in-and-out within 45 minutes for a routine annual visit. Dr. Ampey is an experienced, knowledgeable and thoughtful practitioner - she has my highest recommendation.
I discovered Dr. Hussain at 20 weeks and I am grateful that she took me on as a new patient! She is very understanding and thorough, even when you know shes super busy, she has time for each of her patients and doesnt leave a question unanswered!
Dr. Huang is amazing! Her beside manor is remarkable. She explains everything in ways that you fully understand and she has always been on time. Every time I had an appointment I was back in the room actually being seen at my appointment time.
Ive been a patient of Dr. Hussains since 2003. She delivered both of my children and has been my OB/GYN since the birth of my first child. Shes a terrific physician, and her medical proficiency is only exceeded by her warmth and kindness. I followed Dr. Hussain from her previous practice to her current one. The rest of the staff is congenial, and Im pleased to be under the care of this office.
A wonderful start to a new relationship with Dr. Ampey. I did not have to wait for my appointment. I was treated as a treasured new patient. The electronic record keeping is fast and accurate. The staff are thorough, polite and helpful. Highly recommend!
I have been seeing Dr. Ampey for the past 13 years. She performed C-section when I had my two boys and she is amazing . She is very professional and guide you through things . She is calm and make great decisions . I recommended my mother in law to see Dr. Ampey and she really likes her and is still a patient with her.
You know youre in great hands when your OB hugs you at the end of your visit... and it was a genuine just because hug, not because I received horrible news during my visit and needed consoling hahaha. Love this office and everyone who works in it. From the receptionists to the techs, everyone is super friendly.
Both Doctors are exceptional , very attentive to you at your visit. I had the honor to be seen by both Dr. Ampy and Dr. Hussein and Im glad I am under their care, if one is out Im comfortable with the back up. I feel like a human not a paycheck to my doctor, I would definitely refer anyone looking for an amazing Obgyn and gynecologist.
I have been a patient of Dr. Ampey for 18 years and couldnt be happier with her care. She always has plenty of time to answer all my questions and even just chitchat for a few minutes. This was my first time at this facility. The wait for my appointment was practically non-existent and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I couldnt recommend this practice more highly.
Dr. Hussain is an excellent doctor. Ive been with her when she was with the original group of Flaherty, Goodman, and Tuegel and followed her to her new practice. She takes the time for her patients and calls back when you leave her a message. She also now has her new manager, Patty, who was my nurse when I was pregnant. Patty is also excellent addition to the team.
I am really glad I choose Advantia for my first pregnancy. They are a great team of Gynecologist and supporting staff. Dr Zarina Hussan, my OB-GYN, has been very professional, humble and easy to talk to. She always listened to my concerns and responded to my queries in timely manner. My pregnancy/delivery and post-partum has been very smooth with her. I totally recommend Advantia to all moms to be!
Dr. Amy Ampey is the most professional doctor in the area! Not only is she attentive, but compassionate -way more than just a doctor but like family! I definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for personalized top notch ob-gyn care!!
Dr.’s Hussain and Ampey have been my OB’s for 13 years now. They have cared for me through 4 pregnancies and 3 c-sections. Dr. Hussain has been my [only] GYN for the last 7 years. She takes her time explaining everything to you, answers every whacky female question you may have. Dr. Hussain’s warmth, professionalism & her ability to relate to you puts you at ease during your Well Woman or OB visits. I HIGHLY recommend her (and Dr. Ampey) to any woman looking for an OB-GYN. Their level of care is why I followed them from their old practice (after 20 years of care there) to this practice.
Irresponsible and incompetent. my best friend and her sister went through a traumatic experience because of “doctor” bellamy. please don’t go here if you value your life.
Recently transferred over to this practice. Receptionists are always welcoming and efficient. The MAs are as well. I have only had annuals so far but the doctors seem competent and caring. The experience can be rushed, at least in my experience
Dr. Hussain is a caring professional who listens well and communicates clearly. I feel each time I see her that I am receiving excellent care.
I have had years of very good care with Dr Hussain. She is very personable and a top doctor in her field. I have been pleased with her care when I was an ob patient as well as routine care.
I am happy to be able to be going to Dr. Husain. She delivered my son 8 years ago and I just started seeing her again now that she is closer. The practice is very clean, they are always available to speak with and Dr. Husain is amazing.
