Harbour Women's Health

"I wrote an original review about the poor experience I had with pregnancy care at HWH. I stand by my review regarding my inability to individualize my pregnancy care plan at HWH. They require patients to follow their outlined pregnancy care guidelines, and will refuse to continue seeing pregnant patients who ask to avoid certain interventions. However, it is also only fair to update this review and say that when I had an unexpected complication that required immediate assistance, HWH was there for me. They fit me right in, they didn't treat me poorly for our previous disagreement regarding pregnancy care, and they continue following up and sending referrals. Though I still feel an independently owned midwife will be the best place for me to be taken care of for routine, low risk pregnancy care, I am grateful for HWH's professional care regarding my unexpected complication and would continue seeing them for all other necessary care."

"I saw Dr Amarosa for my gynecologist. I have PCOS and at the time she was very helpful and non judgemental about doing STI testing. She also performed my tubal ligation and it went really smoothly and she did a really good job. I have since moved away, but am returning to the area and want to see her again. Every time i come to this office(Portsmouth) I'm seen promptly and everyone is nice. The providers also know what they are talking about. And if you call to talk to the nurse they either answer or call back in a timely fashion."

"Had a mixed experience my first pregnancy. Dr. Nelson was the only person I liked but she doesn’t work in obstetrics anymore. That experience was mixed, as I said, and my two experiences since have been unsupportive and traumatic. The doctors and staff are so cold and always in a rush to get appointments over with. I don’t feel comfortable going into all the details I’ll summarize a bit. Messages never returned, overcharged for services I was never made aware of in a super vulnerable state, poor bedside manners, etc. I’m so sad and feel taken advantage of. This is the end of my relationship with Harbor. I stayed because it felt too hard to change but I’d rather be unhappy having to go somewhere unfamiliar than be unhappy with the treatment I’ve received here."

"Every doctor at HWH is exceptional. They are kind, compassionate and knowledgeable. Each one brings such a unique perspective to your care and I couldn’t be more grateful. I’ve had 4 healthy children with this practice and also had a second trimester lose. My care during that lose and my pregnancy after was nothing short of amazing. The front desk staff are friendly and accommodating and always knew my name. Which is such a small detail but one that means a lot. I recommend highly for you ob and gyn needs."

"I wish I could give Harbour Women’s more than 5 stars! My incredible OBGYN is Dr. Scoones and when we became pregnant I thought seeing multiple doctors was going to be tough, however, it quickly became obvious that every member of the team is knowledgeable, truly cares and.always took the time to explain things and answer questions. The administrative staff, nurses, Ultrasound gurus and doctors are all the best. I couldn’t recommend a practice more!"
