Having a Pap smear exam is the worst; but the doctor was reassuring and calming. This exam will never get easier, but her compassion, patience and professionalism placed me at ease. God bless her and thank you!

The staff at this office was great. They were kind and respectful. The provider on the other hand was not. She was rude , as soon as she walked in "first impression" I knew that it wasn't going to be a good visit . Every concerned I had , I wasn't able to fully verbalize because she kept cutting me off when I tried to speak. She was VERY DISMISSIVE of my issue and pain. I felt like I was NOT CARED for and in some way as she was mocking my pain. I've never felt so UNCOMFORTABLE with a provider . I will NOT be scheduling another appointment with her . This was the first time I had an appointment with her , and only agreed because she was the earliest available . I would NOT recommend her to anyone. I feel this provider is in it for the money , rather than the care of the patients .

I really was impressed with Dr. Hooshvar. She was very present, very congenial, listened well. It was my first time to meet her and I felt very comfortable and so I'd be happy to go back again if I need her assistance and I'm glad to see she's on staff. Thank you.

August 22, 2024
When I told my primary physician I went to the PIH Wellness Center for a visit, she seemed to be unaware this is where I was scheduled although their office scheduled my original appointment here. This is the location I usually go to for medical services. Thanks.

Dr. Hooshvar was courteous, respectful, professional, and extremely patient.
August 02, 2024
I was referred to Dr. Hooshvar after my doctor was unavailable. She was the first doctor to actually listen to all of my needs and concerns, and she went through and followed through to make sure that she was able to check and make sure what was going on with my body, and she still continues to do so. Therefore, I switched my provider to her permanently, and I am extremely grateful that I have her.
July 29, 2024
This doctor made me feel very comfortable. I get nervous when I go to the doctors, but she made me very comfortable, and she was very, very nice. And I'm very grateful that I had her. I told my husband how, I was so lucky to get a good doctor. Thank you so much. I'm very happy with the service there.

Dr. And staff very courteous and professional.
July 16, 2024
I had a wonderful experience during my recent visit with Dr. Hooshvar. She was kind, attentive, and answered all of my questions. She is supportive, and reassuring. I think she's probably my favorite provider there, or doctor. The staff was also incredible. They were kind, and very supportive. So, I had a wonderful experience during a scary time. This is why I continue... to visit or to schedule appointments at the Women's Center. I think what, the services that are being provided are wonderful on the
July 05, 2024
The doctor listened to me and offered solutions that other doctors have not in the past.
June 27, 2024
Very good team!!!
June 17, 2024
I think you guys can most improve by the time scheduling an appointment at 4 and not being seen until 4:40 is a big no-no. Other than that, everything else was wonderful.
June 04, 2024
RN (name removed) was so kind and caring, I really appreciate her. Thank you
June 04, 2024
I really do believe that most of the doctors that I see at Pih treat you according to your insurance. also, I believe age are race in my case plays a big factor. I have issues and I have to say that none of the doctors really have helped. I don't have a lot of things going on. No one has really ever took the time to explain to me what is really going on with my health and all these different illnesses I am feeling I am 72 so maybe it is me but I just think it could be better.
June 04, 2024
This doctor does take her time accommodate patient. The only thing is it Takes to long to get appointments with her. Call center needs to provide a little more clarity and not be so Rude to her patients .
May 31, 2024

May 24, 2024
I can't begin to say enough positive about my experience with this provider. Dr. Nina Hooshvar was kind, positive, professional & patient! Her nurse (name removed) was also extremely kind, positive & patient! I really struggled going to this appointment. But these two professional women made a huge difference in my life during this appointment!!!! A huge thank you to both of them!!
May 24, 2024
I felt listened to and respected! Above all, I felt like an equal participant in my medical health and appreciated the honesty and genuineness from my doctor.

The gowns that are given are small and made of paper. It would be more comfortable if the gowns were made of something more sturdy and adequately covered the area.
May 16, 2024
Excellent team! The lady across on the side seemed a bit stern and intimidating when I interacted with her twice, but maybe she just has a stronger personality overall. Apart from that, everyone was great! MD, main office lady where I officially checked in and phlebotomist were all friendly and professional.
May 14, 2024
My appointment was at 1:30. We got there around 12:30. Dr. Nina Hooshvar took us in early. Very considerate and thoughtful.

This was a positive experience and I am extremely satisfied with Dr. Hooshvar and all of the staff I encountered.
March 18, 2024
Nina was amazing, made me feel very comfortable and was efficient and did everything in a timely manner. Great at explaining everything to me. The nurse who took my blood pressure and set me up was also amazing. I wish I remembered her name. Over all great service. One of the front desk assistants though needs to be a little more friendly and kind, the first time I ever called I was not greeted with compassion or kindness from her.
March 11, 2024
Dr.Hooshvar is AMAZING!!! She explains everything in detail and in "english". She doesn't use medical terminology. I love how she cares for her patients and it shows.
March 05, 2024
Dr. Hooshvar was patient and nice which made my first visit feel comfortable. Her proactive plans in my care made me feel heard and supported.

During a well women exam are physicians supposed to check both breasts? She only checked one, and it was super quick. That made me feel rushed and not sure it was done correctly
February 08, 2024
This visit was very pleasant. I felt like she really cares for the patient.
February 02, 2024

Everyone was courteous. I felt very comfortable.
January 15, 2024
I didn't like that they don't validate parking I already have to pay a co-pay plus parking just because I'm not pregnant. I didn't see an OB but I was there for woman issues. I think they should validate for all patients.
January 12, 2024
The office staff, (name removed) had a very lively and welcoming disposition. Dr. Hooshvar is also very clear with her explanation. Overall, a pleasant experience.
January 11, 2024
This provider did not spend much time with me, did not explain herself well, and left immediately after she did my procedure. She did not make me feel respected or cared for at all. The rest of the office is great, though. They you know made my appointment at a fairly timely manner, and I felt respected. Thank you.
January 11, 2024

December 26, 2023
Provider was great but it was disappointing not being able to schedule my next appointment in a timely manner and having very limited days to select from, specially as I'm nearing the last couple of days of my pregnancy
December 21, 2023
I like feeling comfortable with her. She definitely comes to you knowing your history & concern. Even goes beyond researching for other possibilities regarding the patient's concern.
