Dr. Sarah Allison Strnad, MD

Someone else wrote a google review about her fat shaming but I needed to go to the gyno and decided to give her a chance. But nah, she's really condescending about it. If you want to get patients and retain them, think about how you treat them. She told me my BMI was too high and it should be lower. She assumed I ate poorly, and I told her that I in fact mostly eat veggies and lean meats she didn't believe me, started telling me I should eat less carbs and grains. She then told me then maybe I needed to work out more. My blood work is golden, FYI. Okay cool and what does this have to do with the actual health of my cervix? For the record, Dr's are discriminatory to fat people, and therefore people who are considered overweight get inaccurate and subpar health treatments. Dr's don't spend as much time with them, etc. You know what I care about? Making sure you are ensuring I don't have a lump in my breast because breast cancer runs in my family, not your opinions on my body… size. If you think you deserve my money, or other peoples money then treat your patients like humans and give us proper care. Your opinions of how you perceive my health based on the inaccurate scale of a BMI isn't going to be tolerated.

I had gone to this doctor for years and within the last year or so, she became very condescending and dismissive. She actually told me at my last appointment to find another doctor. She also dismissed symptoms that I was having that another OBGYN found to be accurate. I do not recommend her.

She's rude and not gentle at all! I have gone to her for two years, and still have not felt comfortable with her.

Dr Strnad dismissed the intense pain I feel during intercourse. She also spoke in a demeaning manner to me during the appointment. I would not recommend this doctor to anyone who experiences pain during sex. I told her that I had been doing research and informed her how I felt my pain matched some of the conditions I found. She told me that I should never do research on the internet and that some of the pain I had was most likely just from using the wrong size tampon. (I am a doctorate student in the health field, I believe if my pain was that simple I would have figured that out. I also firmly believe that patients should be their own health advocates and if a doctor discourages that advocacy it's because they are not a very competent medical professional.) She did some blood work on my hormone levels, when I requested those results to be sent to an endocrinologist, she said that it wasn't necessary to do that, though as a patient that is how I wanted to proceed. I found the WISH… clinic in Nashville, where my pain was taken seriously. After medication, physical therapy, and consultation with an endocrinologist my pain is almost completely gone.

I live in Florida now yet I fly back for all my Gynecological needs to see Dr. Strnard. Dr. Strnard is an extraordinary human being that goes above and beyond to help her patients!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr. Strnad. I would recommend her to every woman. After having a bad experience with another obgyn, I was distraught. Dr. Strnad was recommended to me by a friend. I had an ovarian cyst. Dr. Strnad removed it @ Baptist Hospital 2 days ago. She was very professional, nice & personable with me and my family. We were all very pleased with her and the hospital.Thank You
