I would give this woman 0 stars if I could. She was very dismissive of me and made snide comments regarding my age, my birth control choices, and my supposed naïveté about the sexual history of my husband (who I have been with for nearly 12 years). I have never had such an unprofessional experience in my life. I was already thinking about changing practices and she certainly made that decision easier for me.

I had a very poor experience. I explained some really bad symptoms I was having and she basically said they were not her problem. She did not have good answers to the questions I was asking and I felt very brushed off, she acted like she did not care to answer them. She left the room before I was done with my questions. I was still asking questions as she was walking out the door! Very rude.

I would not recommend. Very dismissive in hearing my concerns. Not only that, but his general knowledge of even simple matters such as blood type is lacking. Insisted that I was not O RH- blood type and that it is not possible to be O RH- with two O RH+ blood type parents. It is in fact possible (albeit rare) if both parents have the RH- gene but do not express it. Blood type was then confirmed by nurse to be O RH-. I would stay away if he can not even handle something as simple as blood type.

Doesn't interact with patient fully. I had bad experience, went for a simple checkup and she performed a biopsy before I could think as to what is happening and why am I being treated for it. No correct knowledge providing on why a procedure is conducted and how to take care of it later. Had pus in a few days and had to take antibiotics prescribed by the nurse.

If Dr Askinas is your Doctor, get a second and third opinion. He wanted to remove one of my ovaries because I had a large cyst, he didn’t BELIEVE me that I had one and had to leave the room to ask another physician why they told me to book a surgical consult with him, and I was a healthy 28 year old female looking to conceive. Also had him when I had a miscarriage and didn’t treat it with sympathy. If he is the only available doctor, you should wait it out and get another doctor.
