Dr. Laura Katz, MD

I totally agree with minpinmomma. If I could leave a zero star rating for Dr. Katz, I would.

I was sent a 15 page questionnaire to complete before my appointment. After writing for 45 minutes, answering the same questions over and over again, I gave up and started scanning the following pages to see how many more times I would be required to list my insurance information, emergency contact information and all of the medications and supplements I am currently taking. After scanning the pages, I was appalled at the questions I was expected to answer. In addition to the "naked pictures" request and fire arms questions that minpinmomma mentioned, there were additional questions that had nothing whatsoever to do with a ob/gyn appointment.

These are a tiny example of ACTUAL questions on the 15 page questionnaire:

1. "Are you male or female?" (REALLY? I'm in an ob/gyn office and you want to know if I am a man or a woman?)
2. "Are you gay or straight?" (None of your #@%&ing business!)
3. "Are you depressed?" (If I were, I would consult a psychiatrist, not an ob/gyn.)
4. "Are you afraid of anybody?" (If I were, I would call a cop, not a doctor.)
5. "Do you wear a seatbelt?" (Oh, I'm sorry, maybe you are you a cop! It didn't say that on your office door! If you are a cop, aren't you supposed the ask me for my license, proof of insurance and registration?)

There were pages and pages, front and back, of these types of questions. The questionnaire, had I finished it, could easily have taken 2 hours to complete. Instead of completing it, I left blank any questions that did not pertain to my visit.

Upon arrival for my appointment with Dr. Katz, I was told I needed to complete ALL of the questions on the questionnaire or the doctor wouldn't see me. I refused to answer any more redundant questions or questions that didn't pertain to my visit. I fired Dr. Katz on the spot!

Never go to this doctor!! My wife went here and Dr. Katz lied about her blood results. She was told her situation was much worse than what is was and required several follow up visit. We feel she was told this so Dr. Katz could get more money. Dr. Katz was rude and judgmental of decisions my wife had made regarding her reproductive rights. Do not go to this doctor!!

Today I was turned away by the doctor for smelling to good. I was asked if I was wearing perfume and when I said no I was then sniffed by numerous office staff members and after 45 minutes of waiting I was being weighed and told doctor would not see me because smelled to strong of perfume. I watched the women talk about me while waiting. I left in tears and embarrassment. I will be finding a new ob/gyn. Poor patient service and would not recommend.
