Dr. Kristine Alice Herrmann-Pelagalli, MD

This doctor did not check for a fetal heartbeat at my 8 wk appt. I then miscarried at 11 was after an ultrasound showed baby stopped growing at 6 was. This was my 1st pregnancy and had she checked I could’ve been informed and prepared. Instead I had multiple ER visits and miscarried with no knowledge at home. It could’ve been very dangerous. When I called the office the next morning and told the office I miscarried the person who answered said I had one too, you just have to suck it up. If you’re with the UH system go see Dr. Galun. He’ll provide great care.

Terrible birthing experience. Pushed for one hour and she asked why the baby wasn’t out. Then turned up the pitocin too high and the baby’s heart rate dropped. She then proceeded to try and vacuum the baby out when he had not even crowned yet. I was then rushed to an emergency c section where is was lodged in my pelvis. When she followed up with me in the hospital 2 days after she had no idea who I was, didn’t do an exam and was just clueless. I’m writing this review so no one will experience anything like I did. Terrible experience!

If you are seeing this “Doctor” I feel sorry for you.. as a first time pregnant woman I never know what is safe to take and what’s not.. because everyone has conflicting info.. I woke up at 3 a.m. miserably sick with a sore throat and other symptoms feeling similar to when a I had strep, so I called to see if there is ANYTHING safe for me to have OTC other than Tylenol & salt water gargle with tea until I can get in to the doctor... Do you know she actually said to me that I shouldn’t be calling at 4 a.m. for this, and it’s not appropriate!? This is what is wrong with Healthcare.. I am a nurse, I get it. It’s 4 A.M. however you are in-fact the ON-CALL doctor (all I did was dial my OB’s office number as directed after hours not knowing if it was a OB nurse on-call or what) and I am miserable and wouldn’t be calling if I wasn’t & I also haven’t ever been in this scenario and do not work for an OB so I want to make sure I’m not taking anything that isn’t safe for my baby ready to pop.. We… pay for monthly private EXPENSIVE insurance so that I may have the privilege to call you at 4 A.M. God forbid I should need to. Shame on you. You better believe she received a 4 A.M. lashing for telling me It’s not appropriate to call her! The way she spoke to me and actually made ME, the paying customer feel is sickening .. and as a nurse who has taken calls at all hours of the day and weekends I have no sympathy for you “doc”.. I have worked allllll the on-call hours and have never shamed someone for calling me on my watch.

Kristine Pelligalli is no Dr .... a Dr took an oath to do no harm ....she did a radical hysterectomy on me ....i was.just surgical experience using the "davinci ' a robotic machine ...she knowingly destroyed my life...i dispise her ..she is not a doctor in any sense of the word

I have never had a more caring doctor, she takes the time to explain things, is open and honest with you, is reassuring and treats you on a personal level. She is very knowledgeable and confident. I'm so confused by the negative reviews, I wouldn't dream of seeing another OB/GYN and would refer her to anyone! The staff is great too!

After seeing these negative reviews, I feel compelled to share my experience. Dr Pelagalli is amazing. I've been seeing her for several years, long before, during, and after my only pregnancy. People dislike her because she is honest about telling people when they need to lose weight or quit smoking. That news may not feel good to hear, but it's true! I trust her very much and would never see another doctor. She was amazing during my entire pregnancy. She answered all questions and kept me on track. She delivered my daughter and handled everything perfectly with my and my daughter's best interest in mind.

Dr. Palligali is a horrible . She don' t care about the patient . Never explain to the patient what is going on with them always in hurry like to patient make a decision in a minute . Tired of this doctor and had to choose other dr. Every time you go in the office no more than 15 minute spent with the patient. Keep doing further test but never set down with the patient and talk nicely. If you ask I need another opinion she tell you every dr. Will answer the same. The staff is so rude and want to take their dr. Side even though they know she is wrong. Anyway I changed my dr.

This woman is cold, harsh, and annoyed by questions. Despite the bad reviews I saw on her, I gave her a chance and I regretted it. So I switched to a different doctor after my first prenatal visit. Not putting up with that for the next 7 months!

I never write reviews, but in this case I felt compelled to do so. DO NOT see this doctor. She is unkind, unsensitive and will test you and charge you for unneccessary procedures. the environment is similar to that of an assembly line, the worst bedside manor I have yet to experience- very knowledgeable, but jaded, rude and cold. Dont expect your diagnoses to be explained and be prepared to be belittled and spoken down to. The staff there is also unkind and will harrass you for days prior to your appointment, with threats of a "no show fee". Clearly, she has a difficult time retaining patients. I am very easy going and flexible, but after years witht his doctor I have finally had enough.

I feel Dr. Pelligalli is very caring. The staff is professional and kind and they are very good about getting you in on time and on your way. I would recommend her to any woman looking for a wonderful ob or gyn.
