| - I've been going to WHP for about 4 years now. They aren't all together bad, but there are some things that I've learned about that office that people should be aware of before they decide to go here.
Dr. Trupin is flighty. She's a whirlwind. Every time I've gone in, she opens the door and plops down on a chair and right away starts talking. No introducing, just starting in on the symptoms and what you might have. She's blunt and quirky, but she will listen to you if you tell her what you need or want. You just have to be forthright. It's almost like she's borderline Asbergers or something. And since she's involved with HADA and waaaaay into skin care and other crazy treatments, she'll push it on you. Just tell her no thanks and that you are just fine the way you are. Once you get past all of that, she actually IS a good doctor and has done a lot for the women in this community.
The office staff is okay. Polite for the most part, but can sometimes rub you the wrong way. You'll also need to call them instead of wait for them to call you. Even when you have tests done, YOU need to call them. They're just not on top of calling people back and following up with their patients. The ultrasound techs have been nice and they flobotamists have been really nice too, so that's a plus.
All in all, go here if you feel you are a strong enough personality to put up with a flighty, blunt, but well-meaning doctor who DOES know her sh*t about women's issues. Go here especially if you know that certain things run in your family that could cause issues with pregnancy, periods and other woman issues. If you handle them right, you'll find out what you need to know.
