Dr. Sara Melanie Working, MD

Truly an incredible physician!

Dr. Working is my obgyn doc for my son. I just love her. She answered any questions i had. I was hoping she would be the one who delivered my son and low and behold she was. She made my labor so much easier. She checked on me to see how i was doing. When i wanted to give up on pushing when it was time she talked me thru it. Dr. Working one of my best doctors yet. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you dr. Working for everything

Dr Working was the on call doctor the day I went to get a stress test at the hospital and she decided to induce, which was a good thing. The baby’s heart rate kept falling in labor so she told us we should have a c-section. I didn’t want a c-section, but it was the right call. The umbilical cord was in a true knot and my placenta was 40% detached. I feel lucky that both baby and I are doing well and I credit her with making the right call with both the c-section and not sending me home that day.

I'm a 3rd time mom, was trying for my 2nd VBAC, also new to Nevada, AND I'm located 3 hours from Reno, which is the closest location to allow VBACs. I went through 3 doctors and chose Dr. Working after not liking the others. She was nice, and understanding of my circumstances with being so far and trying for a VBAC. Went into labor 2.2 weeks early and she was fantastic! I am so glad she ended up being able to deliver my baby. Things went much better then with my 1st VBAC, no doubt due to the fact that Dr. Working took the lead and handled my situation beautifully.

Keep getting pushed behind and rescheduled it has been 7 months of me desperately trying to see this doctor and I keep getting pushed behind.

The wait time was long however I had been told she was running behind when I check in. However, once I was in the room, there was another long wait. Actually, my only complaint.

I had my first appointment with Dr Working today. I am post menopausal and after eight years of procrastination I decided it was a bit overdue for my "annual" exam. She was so considerate about talking to me before I stripped my clothes off and saddled up in the stirrups, not my favorite position for a first encounter.. She took time to talk and interact before doing my pelvic exam. This was such a pleasant experience that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to all my friends.

I personally like Dr. Working. She has been very honest with me and keeps up on current medical journals and studies. I did disagree with her on one opinion once so I just did what I felt was best. The day after I had my son (and was having complications) she came by the hospital at about 6am before heading into her office just to check on me and update me. She had already reviewed test results prior to coming in. I feel that she is brutally honest at times, which I like. I have never felt rushed or like my fears didn't matter. I don't hit up Dr. Google after hearing her opinion and that's a good sign in my book.

Dr. Working was the on call dr when I went I to labor with my third baby. I was due for a repeat c section later in the week, and was assured by my dr that if I should go into labor before the scheduled date, I would just go in and have the baby right away. Dr working refused to even come in and see me, even though my contractions were 2 minutes apart and unbearable. She sent me home with ambien and percocet and essentially told the nurse to tell me to sleep it off. Of course you don't just "sleep off" labor, and the following day I went to my drs office and was told I had no fluid and needed an emergency C. Not to mention the baby's heart rate was dropping with every contraction. She was born perfect, thanks to Dr. Dekay, and zero thanks to Dr Working, who couldn't even be bothered to come in at 1 am to deliver a baby that should have been delivered.

Dr. Working is so intelligent, patient and kind! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful OBGYN!!
