Gave me staph infection during my c section. Took the hospital 2 ER visits to finally realize and by then I was almost septic. Once I was admitted into the hospital, she came into my room on a Monday morning and cut me open for a second time and said, "oh, it's not that deep". 3 other on call drs had examined me and decided to not cut my incision open again, but she flew into the room and just did it, without examining. I then had to be packed for weeks after I was discharged. Her NP checked me at my 6 weeks postpartum appt ... read more

She is AMAZING!! She worked my surgery in her busy schedule even though she was booked way out. So grateful! She has great bedside manners and I recommend her to all my friends!

Kind, knowledgeable, and a great surgeon! She went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of and comfortable after my hysterectomy. The nurse practitioner who works with her is also great, and I enjoyed seeing them both. Never were my concerns brushed off or ignored. No matter how backed up they were, she always took the time to answer every one of my questions. My only regret is not finding her sooner so she could have been my OB throughout my pregnancies!

I don't have any experience with her as an OB, but wasn't happy with her as my GYN over a period of several years. I felt like she wouldn't listen to my symptoms and repeatedly told me I was "too young" to have them, implying they weren't real. I often felt like she was trying to walk out the door while I was speaking to her, and she didn't seem to recall what was discussed at previous appointments. I've since seen other doctors that would listen to me and provide diagnoses & treatments.

I felt like the doctor paid more attention to her computer than me and did not take any of my questions or concerns seriously. I called the office two days in a row because bleeding had started at five months, and was told I come in for a fetal heartbeat if that "made me feel better". Was told to go home and rest. I lost my baby two days later. I felt this was extremely negligent as nothing was done to help prevent this loss.

I'd give a 4star but I've never had so many issues with a gyno office. First the 2 receptionist checking you in are rude & just constantly mad looking. 1 time when I was waiting to get called in I actually heard them talking bad about another client when they left. Their answering phone service NEVER picks up. So if you need to cancel or reschedule forget it. Her nurses are quick, short and cold. No compassion whats so ever. Dr.W her self is nice &caring but does not remember anything.

I made my initial appointment with her and had to wait almost 3 months to get in. She was definitely worth the wait! She's a great combination of personable and professional, and always made me feel very at ease during my appointments with her. She always made sure all my questions were answered and took the time to listen to me. The CNA's and nurses in the office are also really great! The practice is large, so you'll wait a while, but she's a great physician. A+

Dr. Wotherspoon has impressed me from the beginning. The first day I was scheduled to see her, the staff informed me she left for a delivery and I would have to wait (which happens with an OB). I waited for about 45 min, when the staff asked if I would see the NP. I did, and she was great. but as I was getting in my car I rec'd a call from Dr. Wotherspoon herself asking that I come back as she would like to meet me and apologized several times for the wait. Shows character and compassion.
