Attentive, knowledgeable, and caring Love Dr. A Apgar. He is super smart and listens to my questions/concerns and bounces back his thoughts/opinions based on our conversation. He has a great sense of humor and leaves me feeling a sense of relief that I am receiving the best care. I almost want to keep having babies, so I can see him more often.

I have been going to Dr. Apgar for over 10 years. He is very kind and it shows that he cares about his patients. This last visit, I had a few questions and he listened, answered thoroughly, and ensured I was ok before leaving.

Dr Apgar is so kind and friendly. He really puts you at ease. I'm always nervous about appointments until he arrives, and then I relax. He makes it easy to go to the doctor. His staff is great too!

I’ve been a patient of Dr Apgar for 20+ years. He has always taken his time to listen to me, answer all my questions and provide excellent care including my hysterectomy. I highly recommend him!

They only want your money and do not care if you are happy with the results or not! Very rude staff!

Dr. Apgar is such a caring, wonderful Doctor. Always attentive and patient. He delivered 2 of my kids and was high risk. Never felt better taken care of! Trust is a big deal to me and he has mine! Highly recommend

He did my delivery when he was on call for my doctor. He clearly did not want to be there. What a disappointment

Dr. Apgar is top notch, very bright with great personality. He made my day every time. Yes, wait times could be shorter but who wants a doctor that noone wants to see? Thank you doc. X
