Craig D. Astle, MD

"Great! Never on my list of favorite places to go, but at least it wasn't a bad experience. Very professional, friendly, and helpful."

"DO NOT SEE THIS "Doctor". I have never seen him personally but for some reason he started refilling my prescriptions (which are monthly and save my life). HE ORDERED THE PHARMACY TO NOT RUN IT THROUGH MY HEALTH INSURANCE so I couldn't afford it when I went to try and pick it up! I asked them to run it through again after looking at my insurance and what ho, everything worked fine. This man has called every woman I know that's been pregnant FAT. He is going to cost someone their LIFE with these antics. DO NOT SEE HIM."

"I try to give good reviews and at least do 2 stars even if I don’t have a good experience somewhere, because there’s always at least one good thing about a place or person… Or so I thought. Doctor Astle is singlehandedly the worst doctor of any kind I’ve ever had. #1 DIDN’T LISTEN. He told me that I was on “too many medications”. I said that I’d had a preconception consultation with a high-risk pregnancy clinic for that reason, and that OBGYN said my regimen was safe and approved of it. Astle doubled down, saying I was on too many medications (not that the medications I am on aren’t safe during a pregnancy… I think he knew deep down they were… just that he didn’t like the amount. #2 INSENSITIVE AND CONDESCENDING TOWARDS MY BATTLES WITH MENTAL HEALTH. He said if I tried hard enough, I wouldn’t need that psychiatric medication. Didn’t ask how hard I already was trying. Just assumed I wasn’t trying hard enough since I needed the medications I’m on. #3 COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL. He took a phone call during my appointment. It was another doctor I’d seen at that practice (I saw them, was referred to the high risk clinic and told to schedule with another OBGYN at the practice after that because they were actually only taking new patients who were already pregnant). I know it was that other doctor because I recognized her voice (I could hear both sides of his call without speakerphone). They talked about me IN FRONT OF ME and when he got off the phone he said the call was about a patient of their’s that had just gotten out of surgery… he must not have realized that one, I’m not an idiot, and two, I’d been able to hear his colleague on the other end. #4 HE CLEARLY HAD NO INTEREST IN HELPING ME GET PREGNANT. Dr. Astle literally finished our appointment by saying, “Well… I suppose you’re not using birth control… I guess we’ll just have to deal with it if you get pregnant”. I went home and cried to my husband after that appointment. I’ve never been so discouraged or insulted by a doctor (Someone who should be working to help me - not actively routing against me - since I’M paying THEM) in my life. I would NEVER recommend doctor Astle."

"Dr. Astle is the best in the business! We transfered to him part way through our pregnancy for insurance reasons and it was a night and day difference from our previous doctor. He always explained anything we asked him to and answered any questions we had. There were a few times we had quite a long wait at his office, Which is completely normal when you have a wonderful doctor who is not only completely taking care of his in office patients but also does deliverys at the same time. I loved that about this practice, whichever doctor you had, they did your delivery. I wouldn't have wanted anyone else but Dr. Astle delivering my sweet miracle. His upbeat attitude and professional and sweet demeanor make for the perfect OBGYN. He was more than an answer to our prayers. The hospital staff were wonderful at delivery as well. Really, we had the perfect experience and I hope Dr. Astle will deliver and care for all my pregnancies!"
