Dr. Kirifides is an exceptional gynecologist, knowledgeable, gentle, and truly attentive. I always feel listened to, respected, and well cared for. I go to his office for more than 10 years. He creates a calm, respectful environment and always takes time to answer questions thoroughly. Highly recommend!

After waiting for almost a full hour in the exam room, I got a fifteen minute cursory exam that was the most painful one I've ever had in my over thirty years of on-gyn visits.

Dr Kirifides is a wonderful doctor. He is patient, calm and respectful. He listens to you and answers all queries. I am presently consulting him for my first pregnancy. He makes me feel very satisfied and positive after every visit. Totally recommend him to anybody in need.

The staff does not seem to be concerned about customer service in any manner. Every year they make a mistake filing my insurance because I have 2 carriers, it is a nuisance for me. I call and am left on hold for an inordinate amount of time.
