I had surgery to fix a severe uterine prolapse which included a hysterectomy. Dr Turnisky and her team were marvelous-explained every step, were upbeat and helped to put my mind at ease. I had to call twice with questions after hours and they got back to me within minutes. The follow-up appointments were informative and reassuring.

I had a great experience! Dr. Tunitsky was extremely caring and calming. She asked questions and helped me feel comfortable. She is so easy to talk to, I always feel that my concerns are heard. Dr. Tunitsky truly took her time with me, covered all aspects, never once did I feel rushed and she made me feel like I truly matter. The staff was just as nice from beginning to end. Dr. Tunitsky and the staff are amazing! This office is absolutely best!
