Elite Women’s Health Reviews

I absolutely love their office. I always go to the Fredericksburg location. But I have been to the Spotsylvania location as well and I love them too. All staff have been great and I have been going there for years. 3 deliveries with them. Best delivery experience for those 3 compared to all 7 I have had (4 elsewhere).Still a little annoying that I can’t bring more than one person to an appt. 3 of my 5 kids are home during the day when I would be scheduling my appointments. They are well behaved for their age so it’s easier for me to take them with me than to get a babysitter. I have limited support so if I can’t bring my kids with me to appointments, I may be missing out on self care and keeping up with my health. That’s my only complaint, the “1 visitor with patient” rule that started after the pandemic. Some of us patients need to bring our kids with us.
After having an awful experience with the practice that delivered my first baby, I wanted a new OB. Elite has been so wonderful with my second pregnancy. Every doctor, nurse, and front desk staff member I have dealt with have been amazing. Everyone is always so patient and kind, even with the silliest questions or concerns. Special shoutout to Dr. Te Paske and nurse Rochelle. They are two of the best I have ever dealt with. I would highly recommend Elite Women's Health and will continue to see them after this pregnancy.EDIT to add that Leah Choate and Deann, her nurse are also exceptional and so kind. They feel like you are talking to a friend and give their honest opinions! Love them!
I just had my first visit (My previous GYN retired). Usually, the first time visiting a new doctor and staff can be trying. However, this was not the case with Dr. Stadulis and Staff. From the moment I walked through the door until the time that I left, my experience was perfect. The front office staff were very welcoming and down to earth and the nurses greeting me for my visit were the same. It was a great 1st time visit all around! Thank you Dr. Stadulis and Staff! Very happy that i chose this office!!!
Was cared for by this facility up until I suffered the loss of my baby yesterday at 16 weeks. I only got the chance to meet two physicians who were very nice and compassionate (Lauren and Julie). Dr. Ta Paske was the on call doctor yesterday and it was my first time meeting him, he took awesome care of me the whole time I was there. I just wanted to give him a shoutout because I really felt like he empathized and sympathized with me. I was able to deliver my lifeless baby boy and him and the nursing staff at MW handled him so gently and loving. Thank you all so much for making this tragic part of my life a little more at ease.
They are the absolute best! I love the front staff. They are always helpful and cherry. I have Gawddd awful health insurance and they worked out a payment plan for me and answered any questions or concerns I had and I’m forever grateful. After having a terrible near death experience with my first child (survivors of Generations of Women and Dr Mercado you know my pain!!) due to completely uncaring obgyn, I am at peace knowing people actually care and this time I won’t have to go through a nightmare of an experience again. I don’t feel like just a ticket number and a check, the doctors have all treated me as if I’m a real person and they truly care. Dr Patel is amazing! & Courtney Miller is literally the sweetest. I haven’t seen all the doctors yet, but everyone I’ve met so far are wonderful. You are in good hands here I promise!!
My first pregnancy had some complications and I was so grateful for the staff at Elite to guide me through the process. They are a busy practice, but the front desk works persistently to ensure they work with patient's schedules and doctor's (many of whom practice in 2 local locations and Mary Washington hospital). I cannot emphasize how much I loved the variety of doctors and midwives at Elite. If I wanted to see one in particular, I could ask, or opt to see one of the others. My doctors and midwives were tireless in ensuring the health of myself and my baby. While some of my birth wishes were not feasible with Mary Washington Hospital policy, each of my doctorsprofessionally explained why and attempted to find a solution that suited me. Additionally, I must highlight the treasure of the front that is Carrie. Carrie is consistently compassionate, prompt, and personable, no matter how stressful the situation. Her professionalism and kindness is unparalleled, especially for first time moms who can't remember anything! Thank you forever to everyone at Elite!
