Dr. Cynthia Jones Mingea, MD

The Dr visit was excellent. She was very nice and spent appropriate time with me. She made sure I updated her on all health issues. The only negative was the 1 hour wait (I was scheduled for 10:00 and was taken back to a room at 11:00)

Annual went like clockwork! Front office was efficient, very pleasant and felt safe. Dr Mingea was thorough and kind, as she always is!

Dr. Mingea has been my doctor for over 19 years. She delivered all 3 of my children and provided Excellent care. She is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, professional and kind. A doctor you can trust!

Great overall experience

I've been a patient of Dr Mingea's for 5+ years. She has always treated me very well and I think she is a very good doctor. However any attempt to call her staff has been a nightmare. They'll call you about your results, leaving a msg for you to call back. But every time I've called I'm am always disconnected at least once if not multiple times, usually after being put on hold for 15+ minutes. Every time. Furthermore I had a billing issue once two years ago, after leaving 6 messages over a 3 1/2 week time period and never receiving a call back I had to take time out of my work day to drive to the office and speak to someone in person. Mingea is a great Dr however the inability to actually speak to someone in the office along with the usually long wait times to see an appt (expect to be at least 15min after your appt time) has led me to seek another obgyn.

i took a home pregnancy test and it was positive. rushed to the office, left urine sample. mingea's nurse, heidi, told me they would only do a blood test b/c they are more accurate. i asked her to do the urine test anyway b/c i couldn't wait for the blood results. it was negative. i asked heidi if this could have been caused by drinking too much water and she replied "absolutely not". i later read on the ept box and online that drinking excess fluids can cause a false negative. heidi called the next day and told me the blood test was positive. i asked to set up an appt with dr. mingea asap as i was on several meds that can harm the baby. heidi replied that she'd spoken with dr. mingea and dr. mingea told her to tell me she'd already talked to me about my meds and that she would see me in three and a half weeks, no sooner. i'd spoken with her about my meds in general many months ago but never about how to come off of them, and since that time some of my meds had changed. i… immediately saw a different ob/gyn. he was horrified- i was taking 4mg of xanax a day (dr. mingea knew this), which is in the most dangerous pregnancy category. he told me that remaining on that med for almost a month could have caused severe harm to my baby. he gave me the specific instructions i needed about how to come off my meds quickly and safely. additional note- heidi interrupts you constantly while you're talking, or rather, trying to talk.

I have been a patient of Dr. Mingea's for 12 years now; recommended to her from my mom, who has been a patient even longer. We have been through some major feminine trials and have been so fortunate to have been a patient during these times. Dr. Mingea was always there to explain the why's and how's of my diagnoses. Her bedside manner is direct and deatiled, not sugar-coated and she is sympathetic to what patients are going through. She has a great deal of experience and has the resources to help patients as needed. I have since moved out of TX and am now struggling to find a dr as good as she was.

She is great. I trust her completely.

The dreaded yearly visit isn't dreaded with Dr. Mingea. She's smart and efficient, but warm and personable. Wish she were an internist as I've never found a regular Doctor in Austin that I trust as much as I do Dr. Mingea.
