I would not recommend Claudia as a midwife. I went into the appointment very hopeful but was extremely disappointed. I had a non life threatening issue where I tried to ask questions before allowing treatment to which Claudia was unwilling to answer questions with grace and explain the actual issues/ treatment process. In the end I felt pressured into something that I did not feel comfortable with and left helpless. I believe a hospital is where you go to seek medical advice and make treatment decisions not be looked down upon and pressured into things. I left feeling helpless and overwhelmed.

I've been so impressed with Claudia. She takes time to understand my symptoms and then, amazingly, actually helps with whatever is ailing me. She is genuine and knowledgeable -- just what I want in my physician.

Claudia has been an incredible midwife during my first pregnancy. She has an extremely calming presence, is very intuitive and knowledgable, and has helped me navigate some serious difficulties in my third trimester. I couldn't have picked a better midwife to work with.

You can tell Claudia has a lot of experience at what she does. An area that would build patient- provider relationship would be a delicacy in approach and checking in on one's feelings towards treatment options.

Need to stop judging people for ANY reason. She made me and my husband very uncomfortable due to our age. I could not believe how she treated me and how she did not try to hide the fact she was judging us both. She talked down to me like I was a child. I felt very disrespected and uncomfortable. I would not recommend anyone to see her unless you have a VERY thick skin, and are ok with being disrespected, belittled and dismissed. Very unprofessional.

I'm so grateful for the care I've received from Claudia over the years. She's been there through pregnancy loss and three healthy pregnancies. She is warm, funny, generous with her time, knowledgeable, and connects with her patients on a deep level. I always schedule with her when possible because I know I'll be treated like a human being. She's the best!

I appreciated Claudia's attentiveness and willingness to know more about me and my health as it is related to my cultural background as well. I also value the follow-up that I have already had in the last 48 hours from my appointment. I value the way she tries to connect and understand her clients.

All of the staff and practitioners at the Madsen Birthcare Clinic are fabulous. They are kind and compassionate in the care they provide for their patients and have gone above and beyond on more than one occasion. In particular, our primary midwife, Claudia Gerard, provided outstanding care during my pregnancy and will be my go-to person for as long as she is in practice. Her genuine care for her patients is apparent and she always has several suggestions and recommendations for approaching an issue so that her patients feel empowered to make the decisions that suit them best. I can't say enough good things about Claudia and I am so glad we chose her to be our midwife.

I did not feel like Claudia listened to my concerns. When I voiced why I felt my symptoms were concerning, her response was I wouldnt be concerned if I were you. But could not explain well why she wasnt concerned.

I felt that she continued asking the same questions and barely listened to my response. The midwife In training did better than she did.

Jan 13, 2022
SUGAR HOUSE HEALTH CENTER

I initially debated whether the subject of this appointment was right for my birthcare team. In the end, I made the appointment firm in knowing that the Midwives have always made me feel at ease, empowered, listened to, and reassured. I am so, so happy to have had this appointment and my conversation with Claudia gave me everything I needed to feel better. She was - as she always is - warm and engaging, showing an authentic concern for me and my health. I am, and will always be, an evangelist for the birthcare Midwives.

Luckily my experience with Claudia and Elaine was great. I have been cared for by Claudia when my baby was born and I really like her. She is warm, kind, and confident. When I need more care from a midwife I hope to see her. She and Elaine were very nice and quick with my IUD removal. They both made me feel comfortable, validated, and supported. I would rate my time with higher than a 5 if I could!
