Houck Beth MD 475 Irving Avenue, Syracuse, NY 13210

"I've been going her for many years. She's a wonderful doctor. She's always listened to all my concerns, cares about my needs and wants. I wouldn't go anywhere else!"

"If I could give any less than 1 star I would. Beth was my Dr. during my pregnancy. I went to see her twice with excruciating pain in my rectal area. She never examined me. She told me I had sciatica and then said, Welcome to Pregnancy. I left. Within the next few days it got so bad, I called the office and one of the other drs told me to go to the ER. I went and I had a huge rectal abscess. I was admitted and had to have it cut open. Low and behold the next day, my water broke, a month early and I delivered my daughter. After that it never healed correctly and I had to go and have an operation to fix it. This happened many many years ago but I find it important to tell the story so people realize that she is a terrible doctor. I wouldn't go to her if she was the last obgyn in the world."

"Dr. Houck has been my doctor for the past 30 years. I've referred a number of women to her practice. I've had more than my share of "female issues." Dr. Houck has always been attentive, patient, knowledgeable, compassionate and able to resolve the problem. Her office staff has always been kind, professional and goes out of their way to make me feel comfortable. The best part is that she has a great sense of humor!"

"As I sat on the table for my well check stripped down with my feet in the stirrups feeling completely vulnerable, Dr. Beth Houck completely violated my right to autonomy regarding my choices for my own body. I was harshly judged and harassed about my COVID vaccination decisions throughout my entire appointment. She did not seem to care about any of my gynecological health issues or how I was doing once she didn't agree with one of my life choices. She proceeded to tell me what a terrible person I am for not being COVID vaccinated and that I should be fired from my job. I also began experiencing abnormally painful cramps afterwards because she performed an extremely rough pelvic exam. I had many concerns and questions going into my appointment, but I did not feel comfortable asking her any questions pertaining to my visit after being harassed like that. Her actions were completely unacceptable as a healthcare professional. I felt absolutely horrible after my visit with her. It shouldn't matter what someone's life choices are, no one deserves to be treated that way. As a nurse, I was taught in school to be compassionate, empathetic, and non-judgemental regardless of the beliefs and values of our patients. Dr. Houck was not compassionate at all, and she was extremely rude and judgemental. This was the worst experience I have ever had with a doctor. I will never return to her office again."

"Dr Houck refused to see me after many phone calls to her I went into labor and my Beautiful triplet died!! This was negligence on her ! Even if it still would of happened it wouldn’t of been in the horrific way it did!! I hope she realizes it was 12 years this year! 12 years I’ve been living this nightmare that she contributed to!!She didn’t give those babies a chance at life!! I hope she thinks about them!! And the hell she caused our whole family still to this day she has never apologized!"
