Dr. William Lee Gentry, MD

Dr. Gentry is amazing! I have2 beautiful little girls and I have him to thank! We went to his Evansville office and couldn't have been more pleased with him and his staff! Him and his staff always made us feel so comfortable and always answering any questions we had. He has played a big part in the last 9 years of my life and I cant thank him enough for making it possible that I have my perfect little family! I highly recommend Dr Gentry for any reproductive infertility.

Highly unethical!

Me and my husband have been blessed to meet this man and because of him and God me and my husband couldn't be happier

I like Dr. Gentry's personality. He obviously has ample experience and is very sweet. I spent more than two years under his care. Many of my friends who were very pleased with Gentry spent significantly less time under his care before becoming pregnant. In my two years, Gentry never was able to associate my face with my name. That frustrated me because I felt like I had a very long, very frustrating journey and didn't feel like he remembered any of it when making medical decisions. I understand that statistically, most people will get pregnant. If they try for a year and don't, they can go to Dr. Gentry. Statistically though, many of those people will get pregnant with little assistance from Gentry. Out of those non-pregnant people remaining, it seems that Dr. Gentry uses a uniform treatment plan. Out of those still not pregnant, he uses a bit more intense uniform treatment plan. If that doesn't work, he steps it up a notch. The problem is, everything is cookie-cutter. It felt like… he was treating me like I was a robot and that my personal history, my hormone levels, didn't matter. I've now switched drs, and feel that I am receiving a more personalized treatment plan. With that said, I'm sure that his cookie-cutter approach works with the majority of people - statistically, it should if the people are willing to give it enough time. I think he thought that since I was relatively young, there was no rush. However, 2.5 years of fertility treatments ( after 2 years of trying on my own) is beyond frustrating..especially when it feels like I was the only one who was in a hurry. Other issues I had: For my appointments, I would often see different members of the staff. That would be perfectly fine if communication was strong internally. However, all those who saw me would scribble information on a piece of paper in my file as record keeping. I never saw anyone other than the receptionist use a computer. This was concerning to me because nurses would forget to call me or fumble for 10 minutes while they were trying to relearn my history. A wrong prescription dosage was called in for me twice, an important injection was not ordered for me when I needed it, and when I requested my medical records it was impossible to read a lot of the information. On my second IVF day, my file was "lost" temporarily. That would not be possible if they switched to digital record keeping. To contrast, when I switched to a new dr, he kept minutes digitally and then mailed them to me after I left so that I could have a copy. As for his office staff, one nurse was constantly condescending (she doesn't mean to be, but just is) and another made incorrect statements about my meds frequently and then changed her statements when I asked her about them. Maybe the most frustrating aspect of this office was trying to call at the start of a cycle. I have a pretty intense job and cannot take phone-calls at all hours during the day. I would call during my lunch or assigned break times, and leave a message. This office never has a nurse field phone calls. You call and leave a message - then they call you back the next business day. If you start a fertility cycle, there are only three days to get in for an ultrasound. I missed three different months in my two years of Dr. Gentry's treatment because we were playing phone tag. To contrast, my new dr office will answer the phone when I call more often than not. Another frustration for me - Dr. Gentry is known for being late. His office staff both in Evansville and in Indy, along with the nurses in his surgical centers, all joke about it. As a patient, it is not something I liked joking about. If everyone knows he will be running at least 30 minutes late, why can't the front staff lie to him about his appointment times or something? Or why can't he just be on time? Is he getting held up because he talks too much to patients? Why not schedule patients further apart then? And finally, after spending over two years with Dr. Gentry, and completing multiple rounds of IVF. My instruction was to come in for a blood test two weeks after my IVF. I received a negative HPT and never went in or called. Instead, I switch doctors. You'd think that someone in the office would have followed-up with me when I didn't show up for my pregnancy blood test. Instead, they all have completely forgotten about me, about my 4.5 year struggle, don't care that I'm still not pregnant, and I think that proves they were never on my side. Give them your money if they want - they are going to seem wonderful for the first 6 months, and then you'll start noticing those small mistakes are piling up.

Dont go here you woukd be better served elsewhere

The Dr is super sweet but the staff are not so sweet. They run things as if they were Drs and many times do not relay messages and just give you their answers. You can't speak with a live person except the extremely rude front staff who is also the office mgr and billing rep. The billing was messed up and I do think they try to take advantage of peoples ignorance regarding costs and insurance claims. I don't recommend them for family planning but if you want to figure out an initial plan with the dr that part wouldn't be so bad.

Dr. Gentry has the kindest soul I've ever met. His bed side manner and compassion towards his patients is beyond anything I've ever encountered with a physician. He truly cares about his patients and their outcomes. I can't thank him enough for all he has done for my family.. His staff is great, other than the main receptionist who sits up front. She is very rude and shows no compassion or courtesy towards the patients.. Other than her, Dr. Gentry and his team are outstanding!

I appreciated the motivation of dr. Gentry however the nursing staff seemed irritated when you asked questions and at times dismissive. When asked to speak with dr. Gentry they would just say I think he would say this or that, instead of scheduling with him. Also the treatment seems to be one fit all instead of recognizing something is not effective and assessing for other options.

He was excellent and thorough. Took one visit versus many with regular ob to figure out why I miscarried.

Dr. Gentry himself was very nice when I met with him. The reason I am leaving is because of his staff. They do not return calls in a timely manner which is so important in a fertility situation not only medically, but Also it's important emotionally on the patient. The nursing staff does not care and they most definitely do not show any compassion. It's hurtful, disrespectful, and very cruel given the situation of the patients.
