Dr. Amy Hoffman Dodson, DO

I went to Dr. Hoffman for 6 years and her practice delivered my first child. I am on baby number two and made the HUGE mistake of transferring docs so that I could deliver at THAT hospital downtown with THE name. Now that I am experiencing new docs I realize how fabulous she is. Dr. Hoffman is smart, down to earth, spends time with you and has the world's best bedside manner. I feel privileged to have had her as my doc. Her staff is wonderful and so are her colleagues. I miss you doctor Hoffman:)

I recently found out I am pregnant and am trying to find an OB/GYN. I had wanted to meet with the doctor and ask some questions prior to scheduling an appointment. I wanted to make sure I liked her and we mesh well prior to anything!! Well when I asked the receptionist who answered the phone if this was possible she said "well, not really because she is really busy. You would have to schedule an appointment." When I asked what this would consist of she stated "an ultrasound and papsmear." Well what happens if I don't like her and have to go somewhere else? I'm pretty sure my insurance is not going to cover that. As a mom-to-be I want to know my Dr first! I was then told that there were no appointments available for another month. Guess I can mark Dr. Hoffman off my list!!

I really recommend this doctor for any women who likes to be treated nicely. She made me very comfortable throughout my pregnancy and had a great sense of humor about everything. Since I was only 18 when I was pregnant she explained everything I didn't know to me to help me understand and not worry.

Dr. Hoffman made me feel very comfortable and at ease, even though I was scared because I've had abnormal PAPs. She spent a lot of time getting to know my family and personal history, so I felt like she actually cared. Also, we had great casual conversation during the procedures- it wasn't awkward, like I usually feel during these appointments. I highly recommend her!

Dr. Amy Hoffman was an absolute pleasure! She was professional, witty and spent a great deal of time with me asking about my family history and any concers that I have. The first thing she did was apologize about the wait (unusual for a doctor) and based on the average wait time, mine was not typical. I left thinking how happy I am to have finally found an OBGYN that I feel confortable with that makes my health feel like a true priority. I would highly reccomend her to anyone that is tired of being rushed through the office and that will make a pap smear feel like a walk in the park.

I have been a patient of Dr. Hoffman's for many years. I first started seeing her because my regular doctor never had any availability. Choosing to see her turned out to be a really good decision. Dr. Hoffman has always taken the time to talk through all of my concerns and give me all the information available so I can make my own decisions instead of just answering the questions I have. Alhtough I only see her once a year, she remembers the details of each conversation we have had and even asks me about things I forgot about! I have been through surgery with Dr. Hoffman and have alwasy felt like I am in good hands. It is really hard to find a good doctor like this that listens, communicates and is really competant. I am really grateful to have her as my health care provider.

I've been seeing Dr. Hoffman for almost 3 years now. She is great! I feel very comfortable talking with her about any problems and she takes the time to make sure I know everything about any medication she is giving me. If I ever have any urgent problems and need an appointment I can call her office and get in that day or the following day. I have never had a OB/GYN that makes me feel so comfortable during a visit.

I was told by dr. hoffman that i would get a follow up regarding an irregular pap smear in 2 weeks to let me know if I needed a biopsy to be tested for cervical cancer. Very commonplace I know for drs. but not for patients. 2 weeks and 2 days later, I still hadn't heard so I called and left a message with her staff and although she got the message, she decided to leave on her Christmas vacation leaving me worrying through my Christmas vacation whether or not I would have to go for a biopsy. On top of the fact that when I was pregnant and thought I was miscarying I was made to feel very "silly" that I wanted to know the steps if I did infact miscarry and lastly, when I DID miscarry that very night at 4:30am I called to get information on what to do since she did not want to share the information with me earlier that day. I paged one of the drs. in the group and NEVER recieved a call back making a sad and extremely uncomfortable time even more difficult. I will not be going back to Dr. Hoffman or any dr. on her team.
