This review is based off of having seen him for the first time today and just beginning treatment with him. Dr. Agena was, oddly enough, recommend by my old gynecologist nurse. After growing tired of her cold shoulder treatment I breezily asked her nurse if she had any suggestions for another dr. She suggested Dr. Agena, saying he was the dr she sees (which I thought with in itself was funny enough). Anyway, making an appointment with him was simple. Not one of them offices where your transferred around to only hear they’re “earliest appointment” is (like) 3 yrs away. Staff is VERY friendly and really do try to make it comfortable for you — which shocked me because I normally love my drs but hate their nurses and staff. Dr. Agena was nice and seem to be pretty informative. Seems to be the type of dr you could relax and joke with. He’s not like many others who swiftly with a heavy dose of aloofness see you and run out leaving you to get the rest of info from his nurse or assistant. Wait… til me wasn’t very long neither. I was pretty in there and out, even for being a new patient.

I was. It pleased with the care i received from dr. Gary. He did not seem to be focused or interested in my birth plan. Maybe I caught him on an off day but His staff seemed rude and I switched.
