There is nothing else to add, I just hope Dr. Hartshorne never retires or moves away!

I had been trying to schedule an appointment, but I was unable to schedule one with Dr. Hartshorne because they said I was a new patient. I had not been in several years, per her request.

The only thing I would like to change would be a shorter wait time. It was over an hour.

My annual visit with Dr. Wendy Hartshorne is always positive. She listens to my concerns and answers my questions.

There is nothing more they could have done. I could not have been more pleased with the physician and staff's cordiality and service.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 12/17/2025
Everyone I have encountered in this office is awesome. I don't think there is any room for improvement. I have been treated like I am a VIP every time I have been in this office. They make me feel special.

Staff was amazing and I enjoyed my visit. It's always wonderful to see Dr. Hartshorne and her staff and the office manager was wonderful when she took my blood work.

The waiting time to be seen in the lobby is awful that's the only thing other then that I love my doctor

Dr. Hartshorne is hands down the best OBGYN anyone could ask for, you can tell she really cares!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/31/2025
Had a great visit. Dr. Hartshorne was attentive and compassionate as usual. Al her nurses were very nice and caring. Wouldn't change a thing.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/25/2025
Every year I give the same feedback and every year it's the same. THE BLINDS IN THE ROOM NEED TO BE TILTED UP. The fact that there's a window in the room of an obgyn is weird to start with, but if the slats are angled down (which they were), some pervert could watch the whole procedure with a drone. It's deeply concerning that my feedback is not taken seriously.

I trust the care that I receive from your staff
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/24/2025
N/A, this was an excellent care experience

Nothing, the staff and Dr. Hartshorne are absolutely amazing!

Work out a better system for being able to make timely appointments with my physician
- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/15/2025
I had a very long 45 -50 minute wait past my appointment. It would've helped if the front desk would've advised me the doctor was late.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/14/2025
This is a great practice. Everyone is very nice & helpful. So far, I have only had great experiences with all of the staff.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/14/2025
I just wanted to say Wendy is the best doctor ever and I don't have any complaints. I love her. Thank you.

Nothing everything was great
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/11/2025
Everything was great from the time I entered the office until I left Dr Hartshorne has a great personality and great bedside manners the check in and check out staff were friendly and professional good visit
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/9/2025
One way to improve visit, which I did is to let the patients know if it's gonna be longer wait to be seen. I waited in the waiting room for 45 minutes before being taken back. I understand things get behind, but just a courtesy explanation would be nice.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/6/2025
Routine visits are booked up and difficult to schedule.
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/29/2025
My appointment was at 9am. I checked in at 8:50am. I didn't get called to the back until 9:20am. So I was waiting for 30 minutes while everyone coming after me was getting called back. I really almost left and was looking for another obgyn while I was waiting. The Google reviews on the specific location all have the same feedback. The wait time is horrible and it doesn't seem to improve!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/28/2025
Dr. Hartshorne and her team are wonderful health care providers! Thank you.
- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/1/2025
I had to an hour past my appointment time to be seen.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/26/2025
This visit was expertly and kindly handled by Dr. Hartshorne and all the staff just like they always have. Can't think of anything that would have made it any better.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/20/2025
I was very appreciated with the doctor. She listened to me carefully, she answered, she was very polite, smiling, and I was really, really great to have this appointment. And everything went so well. Thank you.

Nothing just keep doing what they're doing
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/16/2025
When calling to make an appointment, if the receptionist was way nicer, that would be great.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/12/2025
Had to wait too long in treatment room for doctor.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/26/2025
I absolutely love Dr Hartshorne and her bedside manner. She makes you feel welcome (all of the staff was very friendly and polite) and even though you know she has a zillion patients waiting for her, she makes time to explain and answer questions. I just wish that I didn't have to wait an hour before being seen each time I come. They did come out and explain that she was running behind but unfortunately it was not an isolated incident. It happens every visit and it's frustrating. I was there 2 hours and 10 min this past appt. Luckily I only have to come once a year so I try to overlook that especially since she is so wonderful and even agreed to take on my daughter as a new patient.
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/25/2025
Not making me wait more than an hour to be seen by my doctor
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/23/2025
I cannot think of anything more that could have been done. Everyone from start to finish was courteous and friendly and helpful
- 1 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/12/2025
I never got seen I sat in the lobby for almost a hour after arriving at my appointment on time for a important health issue. I was not offered another appointment time or another doctor. And the Obgyn I was scheduled to see is not normally the one I see at this office I still dont know if I was dropped by her or why that had to happen. Do I need to find another office for services? These questions were left unanswered for me.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/12/2025
As always, it was an excellent visit. I feel extremely lucky to have her as my doctor.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/12/2025

Every one there was very kind and I do not know anyone but from my doctor to her staff they show nothing but kindness love and respect

Everything and everyone was great!!!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/29/2025
Dr. Hartshorne is an amazing OB-GYN and well worth the wait of trying to get scheduled with her. I just wish for those that have been with her for a long time, the last 15 years, there may be some way we can get on the top of the list to see her. And then just if we're waiting longer than an hour, just kind of let us know. Thank you.
