I have never had a worse experience at an OBGYN. I went in interested in doing a thyroid panel due to changes in my cycle. Dr. Shannon Harris was extremely cold and was not interested in caring about my preferences when it comes to birth control. As someone who has been on hormonal birth control for years, getting off of the pill and moving to natural family planning has been life changing, and I have loved tracking my cycle to prevent pregnancy. Dr. Harris doubted my knowledge when it came to my own body and my plans for pregnancy. All of my concerns were immediately shut down with inaccurate statements by Dr. Harris. She said that my version of cycle tracking (which is FDA approved) was not accurate and would end up in pregnancy. She continued to question my status with my partner, questioned how long my partner and I have been together, and overall seemed very disapproving of somebody my age being content with the idea of becoming pregnant. She took no time to understand why I feel the way I do about birth control and fertility in general. Don’t go here unless you’re ready to feel belittled for taking a natural route to family planning. Overall a terrible experience and I could not recommend this provider less.

I switched to this clinic a few weeks ago and I am so glad I did! Dr Martinie is the best OB doctor that I have ever had. She actually takes the time to get to know you and what you actually want out of your care and then she goes over her thoughts and ideas and you figure out a care plan together. She treats with you with respect and makes sure you understand everything before you leave the clinic. I am having surgery by her in few weeks and I am very comfortable and I know I am in good hands. Would highly recommend!

I went and saw dr Jillian hallstrom for the first time today and probably won’t be back. She was quite cold and gave me the side eye a few times as if she was judging me for my responses/actions. She was more interested in taking notes on her laptop instead of focusing 100% on me as the patient. A few times I mentioned that I have my US on my phone for her to view and she just ignored me. I then asked if weight gain had to do with the issue and she ignored my question also. I only took this appointment with her because it was the first open appointment. Disappointed as there was no compassion for what I was going through. Doctors can dictate notes after the visit with the patient. If you have that short of a memory that you need to type up your progress note while the patient sits there in silence so you can finish your note then get a scribe. If I’m being billed based on time for this visit then the minutes where I’m just sitting in silence for the doctor to enter her notes should be deducted.

DR MYERS, was very unprofessional and negative. Had a C section and she was the doctor on call. Not mu delivery doctor. When I was being released from North Memorial, she was trying to scare the scarp out of me and that didn't work so she targeted my husband. (Elevated blood pressure due to the staff at North Memorial) I would not recommend giving birth there nor having Dr Myers. She is very unprofessional and she was supposed to call in medicine for my temporary Elevated blood pressure but she never put the request through. I had to get my primary doctor Frank, who did an excellent job, to finish the work that Dr Myers was supposed to do. Dr Myers, seems unexperience and lack emotional intelligence. She needs some soft skills training. Other than that all the rest of the Doctors at Oakdale obgyn are great.

Dr. Mary Martinie is 100% hands down the best doctor I've ever had. She truly cares about her patients. Even with my high anxiety, she helped me feel completely comfortable throughout my entire pregnancy,

Had an appointment that I had anticipated and been waiting for. Desperately needed answers if not to all my questions just to ease my mind with a path forward. They decided to cancel on me just a few hours to the appointment. Saying they could not help me. Leaving me with no options for treatment. Just schedule an appointment with a general Family doctor. Yet, a general family doctor had referred me to an OBGYN clinic because they specialized in the help I needed. What is a family doctor going to do for my uterus exactly?! I am confused the one thing I wanted to get answered they could not help me. This is exactly what they specializes in. They were not willing to even meet with me to discuss options. In the end I was in tears with no answers to calm my nerves about what was going on with my body. Completely unprofessional!

Saw Heather Lunning. - She had an excellent bedside manner. I felt heard, validated, and respected. Plus she offered helpful guidance. Wonderful interaction.

In July 2021, I arrived at Maple Grove Hospital to deliver my daughter. I was scheduled to be induced in a few days but she decided to come on her own (luckily). She was born at 39 weeks. Upon being admitted, I was asked to provide a urine sample. I was later told that DR. TARYN MCEVOY ordered a drug test on me WITHOUT my knowledge or consent. This was supposedly done because of what they considered “insufficient” pre-natal care though I had been going to my weekly appointments leading up to my delivery. Prior to those appointments I had monthly appointments with Maternal Fetal Medicine at Maple Grove hospital because my previous pregnancy has serious complications. Once MFM determined that my daughter was healthy and not going to have the same complications as my last pregnancy, they released me to go back to Oakdale OBGYN. So effectively, my prenatal care with MFM was better than with Oakdale OBGYN. My prenatal appointments with Oakdale OBGYN literally consisted of a blood pressure and weight check, and the doctors there telling me that I was huge and going to have a giant baby that I would not be able to deliver. *I will say here that the midwives and nurses at Oakdale are awesome, but I have met with a number of doctors there and each one was awful* Ordering a drug test on a pregnant mother during delivery without sufficient cause is ILLEGAL. My daughter was not born pre-mature, I did not arrive at the hospital under any kind of influence or duress. There was no cause or reason to have run a drug test on me, WITHOUT my permission, WITHOUT my knowledge. My delivery was easy and fast. My daughter was healthy. I will never see another doctor at Oakdale OBGYN. The only reason I am giving a even 3 stars is literally because Wendy and the Midwives are literally the BEST. But steer clear of McEvoy, Martinie, and Hallstrom.

I started going here in March of 2020 after a previous bad experience with a doctor elsewhere, this place was a breath of fresh air. Dr. Martini is so nice and educational, she explains everything and I can tell she cares. I had to make a last min appointment with a different doctor and she was awesome as well. Plus any of the receptionists and medical assistants I have interacted with have been great. Womens health can be scary sometimes, but I feel well taken care of here :)
