Minal G Mehta, MD

She’s really nice! Clean building, didn’t have to wait long in the waiting room or for her in the patient room.

Very disappointing!
From our first impression through each of our following 3 visits we continued to be disappointed. It feels like they don’t even want to help, or care about their patients.
Specifically Arianna at the front desk was always rude and left us feeling like we did something wrong. Every single call and visit was the same with this unhappy person.
Dr. Mehta was okay, but didn’t provide much information and was dismissive. When following up on questions she acted like we were insulting her. We also felt that she was very poor at managing expectations.
We ended up at Dr. Maslovaric and Dr. Howe and have had an amazing experience. All positive!

I love Dr Mehta. She has a great bedside manner. She really takes time with each patient. I haven’t had her deliver a baby, but she has been my Dr the last 4 years and seen me thru some female issues! I highly recommend her! I’ve meet a few of her OB patients and they all love her!

I called them because of Unilocal review. First time calling receptionist picked up right away got me thinking «great dependable doc office, ok to come here».
After my appointment, I called them again have questions about my pills and couple pregnancy medical questions but nobody pick up. They don’t have business hour display anywhere, called 15 times after 9am and during business hours no one pick up, left a mesg no one call back.
After two day consistent calling finally receptionist pick up but said I should come in for appointment. I told her I have questions relating to pill this doc prescribe me to. And I don’t have time to come for appointment. So she said will let the doc know. No one call me back.
I won’t have her as my OB or deliver my baby with red alert of how unprofessional, inconsiderate, unreachable doc like this. Supper disappointed.

I absolutely love this Doctor. She was my Doctor for years until I had to switch insurances which she no longer takes. I wish she was still my Doctor because she was the best. Very easy to talk to and awesome bed side manner. I’ve already referred a few of my friends to her who also really speak highly of her.

I have been going to Dr. Mehta yearly for at least 10 years now. When I brought up a new medical issue, I didn’t think that she was reactive enough to my new concern. Upon the recommendation of a friend, I decided to try another gynecologist. He discovered that I had a cyst over 8 centimeters big! A huge cyst that Dr. Mehta missed during all those yearly women exams!

I recently moved to Southern California and was looking for an ObGyn for my yearky check up. I found Dr. Mehtal on Unilocal and was delighted to see she was in my insurance coverage network.
The staff is friendly and helps you get thru your appointment quickly and efficiently but at the same time gives you attention and listens to your concerns.
Dr. Mehtal is friendly and understanding. Yearly check ups always make me feel awkward but it wasnt too bad.
If you come, make sure you are early as parking can get tough.
Definetely coming back for my annuals.

They run on time, they’re friendly, they work with my insurance (are accurate with co-​pays, etc.), plus Dr. Mehta seems to take a conservative approach when she makes recommendations. My only issue was having a bit of a scare when she did my examination. She had not read my intake form so she didn’t have full information. It’s all good, though, because it ended up being related to what I indicated on the form.
She’s very knowlegeable and seemed happy to answer my questions. Definitely a keeper.

Amazing experience! My appointment was at 8:45, so I arrived early so that I had time to complete my paperwork before my appointment time. No wait time, was in a room, my exam completed, blood work done, and got to ask all my questions to Dr. Mehta in under an hour. How crazy is that? These days it is VERY hard to find a doctor’s office that runs his smoothly. I was not rushed, my questions were answered, and I was very comfortable. I already told the girls at my work about this office and would recommend more people. If you are looking for a good OBGYN, no need to look further. You found the place here! Thank you Dr. Mehta and your staff for being so amazing!

I would never refer anyone to Dr. Mehta. She made me feel as though she was just trying to finish my appointment as fast as possible. She guessed a diagnosis for me and prescribed me something without even telling me the proper dosage. The day after I used what she gave me, my symptoms were worse than I’ve ever experienced. I’m angry and never going back to her again. Such a waste of my time and money.

I adore Dr. Mehta and her team (especially Liz). These ladies are quick, efficient, smart, and compassionate. They have taken care of me for my wellness appointments as well as the conception, incubation, and delivery of my first child. They also helped me to get through some rather unpleasant post-​partum issues. I can’t wait to have baby #2 with them! P. S. I originally found out about Dr. Mehta from Unilocal,so I am severely delayed in writing a review (two years later).

Had a great first-​time experience with Dr. Mehta! She and her staff, including friendly and helpful receptionist Ariana, made me feel at ease and treated me well. I originally was going to pay out-​of-​pocket for my pap smear because I didn’t think my insurance would cover it, but Dr. Mehta insisted that they bill my insurance anyway incase it IS covered with the new ObamaCare. A few weeks later, I get a refund check from the office because indeed my insurance took care of it!
Also, unlike my previous doctors who only call you if there’s a problem, here they send out a postcard to your home confirming that your test results are okay. Appreciate that touch!

First visit with doctor Mehta today and felt I should write a review saying how comfortable and welcome she made me feel! Will definitely keep her as my new doctor!

Unilocal came to the rescue again! Getting new insurance I needed to find a new gyno and I’m so glad I found Dr. Mehta!
Here’s a tip: DON’T COME HERE ON TUESDAYS. For some odd reason, the receptionist told me that tuesdays are the busiest days for that clinic. I went at 8am and there’s so many people already! parking was crazy! i suggest you go very early and not on tuesdays.
It was quite hard to find her office since I didn’t see any signs in the lobby. I believe she is located on the 4^th floor if I remember correctly. She is in a joined office with Dr. Kim
It was my first time there so of course there are the usual paperwork you have to fill out. It was fairly quick and I didn’t wait that long, approximately 15 – 20 mins. I was getting my yearly checkup and Dr. Mehta was really nice and efficient. She tried to conversate with me during my «procedure» so there wasn’t any awkward silence. She answered all my questions and I was on my way out within 20 mins of being in there. I love her! She makes you feel like you know her for a while and was really helpful. Will be coming back to her in the future.
Make an appointment!

I was on the market for a new gyno doctor and she came highly rated on Unilocal plus, I live 3 miles away from her office. There was a mishap in the beginning because they emailed me a new patient packet form to fill out prior to my appointment which I completed and returned to them. But for some reason, the receptionist couldn’t find it and I had to complete the entire packet again.
After that, everything else went smoothly. I was seen promptly, maybe just 10 minutes waiting. I got my women’s annual exam done and Dr. Mehta was great. She was casual, funny, and nice. We chit chat and the exam was over before I knew it.
The only thing is everything is super fast here. Dr. Mehta and her staff talk fast and the exam was fast. It felt almost rushed but not in an entirely negative way. I’m just used to doctors taking more time is all…

When i moved to the area i was looking to find a new OBGYN and i’m so glad I found Dr Mehta. She’s very personable and professional. Helpful in answering all my questions and makes you feel very comfortable. When i make an appointment, I never wait too long before i’m taken in, max 15 minutes.
One time I came in for an appointment and they had to cancel because Dr Mehta had got called into an emergency so the next time I came in for my rescheduled appointment they waived my copay, which I thought was very nice.
Just recently she has set up a new online system, so all test results are easily accessible thru this website and you can communicate with the Dr and send her emails/​questions much more easily. I think this is a great added feature to her practice!
P. S. Her office is inside the Orange Coast Memorial Hospital. I usually find parking but when i don’t they have FREE VALET parking… SWEET! Definitely a plus when you’re in a rush.

I went here based on the great reviews.
I’m new to the state/​area and was looking for a good OBGYN due to the great news that we were expecting!
Like a lot of reviewers said, she’s easy going and quick. Now, she can be bit TOO easy going. I don’t know how long she’s been in practice but everytime I went, I felt really rushed/​like I was bothering her after the basic routine of the check up. example: towards the end of the appt, she asked if I had any questions and I asked her about oral health and pregnancy, and she just looked at me and goes. yeah go see your dentist. I laughed a little and was like ok well can you explain to me why it’s such a big deal? I also noticed anytime we had small talk about our personal lives. she would always say. yeah, «I need a break» this was heard twice throughout two different appointments. I get it, you’ve been doing this way too long but no need to let it show that much to your patients. Retire early if you’re that tired of your job.
Another reason I’m giving three stars is the wait time. Everytime I visited, I waited well over 45 mins each time. I realized by the 4^th appt it was b/​c they double book (It showed how someone else signed in the sign in sheet that they had the same appt time as us) when I politely asked the girl at the front desk about it, in a grouchy tone, she was like, well we double book for different procedures. Um, that doesn’t justify anything, if both patients have to see the same doctor, whoever came 2^nd must be the one that has to wait 45 mins over their appt time.
So anyhow, I cancelled my future appt and the receptionist didn’t even care when I called to cancel it of course. But maybe a month later, the nurse called asking why I wasn’t returning to their practice… um now that you guys see your records you guys care that a patient isn’t returning? yeah… sorry…found a better place that never makes me wait over 15 mins, and my Dr. gives me the deserved time during the appt to ask questions/​feel comfortable about trusting her with the health/​birth of my child.
She’s not a bad Dr. at all. She just seems really burnt out and it shows. The receptionist could also use a day off or two with how grouchy she always was. Maybe she’s more better for yearly check ups and general feminine health… but as far as prenatal care, I don’t know if I would recommend her.

Seriously amazing!
I’ve been a patient here for a few years and couldn’t be happier. Dr. Mehta is knowledgable, efficient, and super friendly. She always makes you feel comfortable and will take time to chat if you have any questions. Appointments are also easy to get and the receptionist is very nice. The parking lot is a little crazy, but there is valet if if you don’t mind waiting a bit, bouns!
I found Dr. Mehta on Unilocal and I’m so glad I did. She delivered my first baby and I always felt very well cared for throughout the pregnancy. I even looked forward to my appointments because the experience was so pleasant. When it came time for delivery, I needed a cesarean, and Dr. Mehta cut a baby out of me in what felt like 2 minutes. I agree with Lyndsey, she’s a real g ;)

Dr. Mehta is wonderful! She instantly makes you feel comfortable and is open and up front with any questions or concerns you may have. She does her job and she does it well. Her staff is great too. From the front desk girl to her assistant. Appointments are easy to get and the wait once you check in is very rarely over 10 minutes.
I love the free valet parking in front of her building :-) This will make my life easier as I get further along.

I went to Dr. Mehta purely based on Unilocal.I even felt a little sheepish when she asked how I heard about them and explained to her that I went through Unilocal and saw that she had very good reviews and there I was!
Really, I just wanted a doctor who’s quick, but friendly and doesn’t mind to take the time to explain things if you need her to.
She’s very good at making small talk with you, so as to avoid the awkwardness that comes with the breast exam and the exam down under. While very professional, Dr. Mehta was super nice and down-​to-​earth about all my questions and concerns.
The wait time to see her wasn’t too bad. I was able to schedule my appointment one week in advance. I waited in the waiting room for about 15 minutes. I waited another 15 minutes inside the exam room, and even Dr. Mehta apologized for being late because she was running behind from being stuck in the OR all morning. Even then, I entered and exited the building all in under an hour.
I think I found my long-​term gynecologist.
