The nurse who took care of me needs retraining. Did not write down or key in my medication list. Asked, 'Well is your medication list correct in MyChart?' 'I responded back with asking her to tell me what it said and she didn't validate my list. Seemed to be in a rush. Asked 'How is your mental health' while she was straightening up the room. How could I honestly answer that question when she seemed totally disconnected and disinterested?

I really and truly always have a wonderful experience at GVL OBGYN Simpsonville. All providers are so exceptional and compassionate and answer questions patiently and knowledgeably. Office staff are kind, helpful, and welcoming. I am always treated with the utmost respect and kindness. I cannot recommend GVL OBGYN Simpsonville enough!

The front office was the worst experience. Not one of them looked up from their computer or acknowledged me.

Communication by staff when the provider is running significantly behind would go a long way. My appointment time was at 11:15 and I was not seen until 12:20pm. Most patients utilize their lunch break to attend medical appointments. If the provider is running more than 30 mins behind, patients should be informed.

Providers have better attitudes and open to educating patients. I had a question about an after birth medication and the provider didn't try and educate me on the details of said medication instead just stated that "that's what's recommended".

The general patient experience could be improved with some environmental changes that make it more relaxing for such a personal examination, for example, lighting or music or background noise and more comfortable exam tables

Dr. Thurston is the best physician one could ask for! Have been seeing her for years and could never say enough good things about her. I trust her with my care and my baby's care no questions asked. She always answers all my questions and calms my nerves- especially at this particular visit!

My wait to be taken back for the doctor was a little lengthy. It would've been nice for acknowledgment that things were a little crazy before getting back to the room. The nurse did apologize and she was great but that is the only thing I would maybe change.

My annual visit is difficult to get scheduled. Once I get an appointment scheduled, I often get bumped to a later day and later in the day. This is a problem with my work schedule, and I had intentionally scheduled first thing in the morning, only to be rescheduled to a later date and time.
