Complete Women's Care - Alabaster

"I’ve seen Dr. Gooding for nearly 14 years now and I’ve always enjoyed being in her care. But now that I’m pregnant, I truly get to see where she shines best from what I have heard and I’m very excited about delivering with her. I am a huge over thinker and I can come up with some crazy questions at times and she’s been very laid back about them which is refreshing and reassuring. She’s direct and to the point and that’s always been my favorite thing about her. Can’t wait for delivery!!!!"

"I received a appointment reminder for a patient under the name of Sheila. I had a call back number if I needed to change anything. I then called the number to inform them I was the wrong pt or they had the wrong number. The receptionist would not tell me what office it was that texted me this information. ( I looked up the address sent with the text and it was complete womens health) lol. She asked for my birthday and I gave it to her and she said your not in our system who do you have a appointment with. I then said Dr. McKenzie because I have a appt with him in July and he is also a OBGYN I didn’t know if there was a change in offices since I made my appt. She said we can’t help you you need to call someone else. I said I’m aware I just wanted to let you know “Sheila isn’t getting her text reminder she may have accidentally put the wrong number.” The receptionist still very rudely says you need to call someone else we can’t help you and hung up. I almost made my first visit with this office in 2021 until I heard about how rude the whole office was. Now they’re proving to me I made a good choice in choosing OBGYN SOUTH! Sheila I hope you find a new office because they don’t care about you not getting your reminders."

"I have went here for my first two pregnancies, and am now currently going for my third. I have used Dr. Simmons each and every time. Absolutely love him! He genuinely listens to any concerns, or questions you may have. He is also ALWAYS in a good mood! Which puts any nervousness you may be feeling to rest. This OBGYN also provides early gender scanning through ultrasound at 15 weeks. The staff is helpful, and kind. I highly recommend Complete Women's Care for all of your OBGYN needs."

"Now that my entire appointments are complete here I can give my honest review. I had a HORRIBLE delivery experience with Dr Gooding. She wasn’t my Obgyn Dr Rodriguez was but somehow she couldn’t deliver my baby that day. Based on my delivery experience I can say Dr Gooding is extremely Impatient, Rude & I can say racist. I was going for a Natural birth with no type of pain reliever or medicine Involved & thanks to my intuition I accomplished it. Dr Gooding was trying to convince into a C section & I respect her knowledge but she was extremely negative about the whole natural birth & was putting out a lot of negative comments as to why it wouldn’t work. She made me feel very pressured & almost rushed & constantly kept offering me to take pitocin to speed everything up because I wouldn’t take a C section. I did not see any medical reason since me & the baby were not in distress & when I told her I wouldn’t get one she seemed rude & upset. It’s honestly a long story with her but she also said some super RUDE & RACIST comment. She said “this is not a 3rd world country where we make women push until they are about to die” obviously she knew Im Hispanic & come from a 3 world country. My experience was so bad that I asked to have another doctor deliver the baby but unfortunately she ended up being the one. I truly don’t think she loves what she does. She was not encouraging or optimistic in any way towards a vaginal birth. After sharing my story on facebook many women reached & coincidently they had had horrible experiences with this doctor in particular as well. As to Dr Rodriguez if I could go back & choose another Obgyn I would 100%. She never spoke with me about a birth Plan although I mentioned it in the begging & had she spoke with me about it she would’ve know & maybe the other doctor could have mentally prepared herself & knew I didn’t want medication involved. She is nice & all but I don’t feel like she truly engaged & cared about my delivery because somehow she couldn’t be there. Other than that I just had a weird feeling about her & only used her because my sister did but like I said If I could go back I wouldn’t have used her."

"Everything about Complete Women’s Care is wonderful. The staff—from the doctors to the nurses to the front office—are all kind, friendly, and helpful. The facilities are very clean, and everyone’s knowledge and care always gave us confidence that our baby was in the best hands. Our OB, Dr. Zaharias, was fantastic! We are thankful for his care and guidance. Overall a wonderful experience!"
