I was a loyal patient of Dr Gersh and then with the switch from taking insurance to cash, the place when downhill - fast. I went once after the chance and there was no one waiting. I asked the nurse if this due to the change, she said it was terrible, no one was making appointments. I found that service suffered too. I was seen my a doctor who could barely speak English and then I was charged $340 for a 5 minute exam. I tried to claim back on my insurance, but I was told that the charges were far in excess of what was allowed. I tried a second visit, but I left after waiting 40 minutes after the appointment time, despite being the only person in the waiting room. It's a shame, but when Doctor's get greedy, its the service to the patients that suffers.

I have been a patient with WMG since it's inception. I've watched a gradual reverse metamorphosis from the butterfly back to the cocoon. Dr. Gersh writes a beautiful newsletter suggesting that perhaps its time for her to focus her energies on journalism rather than a medical practice.
Over the years in good faith and without reservations I referred at in excess of 10 individuals because I truly believed in the quality of their practice. To the last one each of my friends has become equally disenchanted by the "new" profile of the Group. Sadly I join the ranks of the "been there done that" in search of the elusive butterfly of caring female medical practitioners.

Each time I go it's more tests....when I questioned the amount I was billed I was told that the decision to have the testes where mine...and I was not obliged to do the testing!!!

I was speechless. When your dr. sets you up for tests...don't you do them.... Interestingly all tests came back normal..and I've heard this is how they "pay the bills". I have moved to another Dr. in town and just love their caring and professional manner. No more Woman's Medical group for me.

I was shocked to see what people had written about this practice. I have been going there for years - yes I even survived the switch to cash - and I have not had a bad experience. Far from it actually. On many occasions I have even been able to make appointments on the same day or for the next day. They are always really accommodating and answer all of my questions. I have never waited for more than 15 minutes and then got to spend an hour with the doctor! When they first switched over to cash I tested out an in network office and ran screaming from the office (not literally of course!) when I waited for 45 minutes and then was sent away after a ten minute visit! I will never doubt WMGI again. The financial problem is minimal and not really a "problem". The quality of care definitely makes up for any paperwork inconvenience. I think that anyone who had a bad experience should give the office another shot and new comers should not be deterred. The office is really great. And no... I don't work there (since other people are so suspicious).

Just not the place for quality medical care. Their prime interest is the $$ and how many tests they can convince you to take. This practice used to be wonderful.....it is more interested in giving botox and skin rejuvenation then tending to the womans medical needs. With so many fine Drs. located here in Irvine...I can't help but think any practice would be better than this one. Dr. Gersh has lost her way

The Becky M. sure smells of somebody who works at Womens Medical Group. I went to another local Dr. and she said Dr. Gresh should be ashamed of herself for the way she has treated patients.

i agree with M.L. unnecessary tests and re-visits suggested (verging on harassment). what should have been a small bill is now enormous. very disappointed.

I have been a patient at this practice for several years and believe that it is the best medical practice in the area. I get amazing personal attention and fabulous care. Dr. Gersh and the other doctors are the most intelligent and up-to-date physicians I have ever seen. If saving money is your only concern, don't go to them as they do charge for their services (fairly). But at least you can get in (even Saturdays) and get great treatment and personal attention, and for me that is worth a lot.

Oh My Gosh.....
This practice has gone from bad to worse. It's disappointing..because they started probably 17 years ago in the right direction..and took a WRONG turn. Accounting is a mess....had to straighten out my daughters bill twice!!!.and was even offered a job to help fix accounts. If you want Botox..that;s probably the place for you..if you have medical needs..there are other fine Doctors here in IRvine....with terrific practices.

I had been going there for many years and was happy until they cancelled ins. The costs x3 up . Also they claim less waite time and more time with pat...not true. They actually called me to ask if I could come in 1 hour later I said no because I couldn't change my work schedual, well when I came in they just made me wait an hour! They push cosmetic pro. Mult. visits & unecess. tests. the good thing is I found another good DR. in the area and she has been getting Gershs ex-patints and finds it disgraceful
