I loved Dr. Vogel by Leslie J. at InsiderPages
I was referred to Dr. Vogel by several friends but I was a little apprehensive about seeing her after reading some on-line negative reviews about her. I saw her last week for the first time and, I must say, she is by far the most thorough, thoughtful, and nicest gyn I've ever seen. I met her in her office first and talked to her with my clothes on (which is always nice). She really seemed to listen to and understand what I was saying. I then had the exam in a different room and, although a pap smear is never pleasant, it was the least painful one I had ever experienced. She felt some fibroids on my uterus that my last gyn hadn't just 6 months before. She sent me for an ultrasound (also in her office) and then sat down and talked to me about the results. The whole visit including filling out paperwork, meeting, exam, ultrasound and meeting after ultrasound took an hour - pretty impressive for getting so much done. I would definitely recommend her to friends. As for other reviews that she is cold - that's ridiculous. She is straight-forward, efficient, and not fake (I personally hate the sickly-sweet doctors that call you sweetie and hon.) At the end of my visit I did have to pay my blue cross co-pay but she charged me the discounted blue cross rate so I thought it wasn't so bad.
