Dr. Adelman is the best gynecologist I have ever been to. The care she has for her patients is amazing. Before seeing her I was about ready to give up ever getting help for my pelvic pain and endometriosis. She has changed my life.

I was there for a papsmear and breast exam. I felt uncomfortable that this provider took it upon herself to aggressively push her opinion on the covid-19 vaccination. This continued even When I explained I am working through this with my primary physician. My primary Is not through the U. I have medical concerns I am working through with my physician and at this time am practicing safety measures (eg working remote and social distancing) until I can confidently receive the vaccination. It made me feel uncomfortable and as if I was being judged negatively when I was there for medical care. I was so uncomfortable that I didn't want to extend my visit my asking g any further questions about my women's health.

Urine tests were ordered but seemed like provider may have forgotten because lab was unaware that I was coming. I also thought I was only doing one test. Provider did not explain to me that more than one had been ordered and what it was for. I was disappointed in her lack of detail.

I have never received greater care than I have with Dr Adelman. I have been in great pain for a number of years and when I met with her she listened to everything I had to say with amazing professionalism, Dr Adelman diagnosed my problem quickly, came up with a solution that I felt comfortable with and I am now on the road to recovery.
