Fairfax OB Gyn Associates PC

I have been coming to this facility for several years now. They are the best OBGYN office I have ever been too, despite the great staff, the Drs are wonderful. They aren’t pushy and mean and they don’t do anything you don’t want them too. And they don’t get mad when you don’t want to do something. I’ve avoiding going to the GYN most of my life because doctors aren’t very sensitive, but the Drs and staff her are kind and patient. Just I what need.

I would not recommend this practice. They are horrible, lack bedside manner, professionalism, organization and most importantly competence. I would see a nurse practitioner when I would go to this practice but she retired. Honestly, she was the best and better than all the doctors that I saw there.

I had to reschedule due to work conflicts and I am so glad. My first appt I was going to see a nurse practitioner and when I rescheduled I got Dr. Robert Castle. Best OB/​Gyn I have ever seen. He was knowledgeable about PCOS and other issues I had and assured me he would call with my results even if they were negative since I was a new patient. He is the only male doctor I have seen and I will never see another female because of how comfortable he made me and how non-​judgmental he was. When I asked a previous female Dr to test me for PCOS, she said to my face I was making an excuse for being overweight. My blood test and ultrasound said otherwise and I never saw her again. The staff during sign in and check out was very friendly.
Yes, the office waiting room looks a bit outdated, but the care (what actually matters) was top notch. Some people in the area are pretty self absorbed if they deduct points because of that. I am not a frequent 5 star giver but I went in a bundle of nerves short of a panic attack and left feeling completely normal and relaxed. I would recommend Dr. Castle to anyone and he is very gentle. He joked around with me and was completely open about possibly needing new bc pills if I reacted poorly. He also has experience with PCOS patients and needs of Metformin if weightloss or future plans of bearing children are needed. I plan on having kids in the next 5 – 7 yrs and hope he will be in the area by then.

I am a breast cancer patient. I have had multiple issues over the last 7 yrs. Dr Rosen and Beth Goodiel have been essential to my health care team. When I was advised by my oncologist that I had to be put into menopause, they were my first consult. They had just brought a cutting-​edge new procedure to the metro area. My surgery and recovery were far easier than I ever dreamed possible after reading about hysterectomy recoveries. They are compassionate and supportive as I have struggled with these health issues. The staff is always pleasant and easy to work with. I have found them to be very accommodating to all of my needs. In fact, my daughters are now of the age that they need a GYN and had their first appointments this year before heading off to college. A scary appointment for a young woman! The appointments were handled beautifully and neither has a bad memory of their first visit to a GYN office. I highly recommend this group!

About the customer service: Making an appointment here is nearly impossible. You’re basically put on hold forever and then when you do get through your doctor is not in the location you typically see him at or there are no available times for the date you want. After finally getting an appointment you wait for 10 – 15 minutes even after you’ve arrived on time and there are no other patients in the waiting room. Then you wait in the middle waiting room for another 15 – 20 minutes and finally, you wait another 20 minutes or more for the doctor in the exam room. All in all, I was in there for almost 2 hours and saw the sono lady for 10 minutes and the doctor for (maybe) 10 minutes.
About the office itself: Everything is old, I mean older than myself and I’m in my mid 20’s. This place needs a facelift asap, I didn’t even want to come back here after my initial appointment because it just looks dingy in there. Unfortunately, in Woodbridge there are no decent intelligent doctors, which is why I returned.
About the doctors: I have only seen Dr. Castle and he seems like a nice enough guy with plenty of experience but he is always very rushed, which sucks because it takes forever to see him and forget about ever calling to speak with him. He NEVER calls you himself. Ever. A nurse that has no idea who you are or what you and your doctor have talked about will call you. These nurses will call you back within 24 hours or so but they more than likely have not actually spoken with the doctor and just don’t want to leave you hanging. Basically, it may be a day or two (or 5 days if it’s a weekend with a snow day in my case). Unacceptable.

I’ve been going here for over 5 years. I initially started going here when I lived in Woodbridge and it was maybe a ¹⁰⁄₁₅ minute drive. I have since moved much farther away in Alexandria and refuse to find somewhere closer to me. Everyone here is wonderful. I only ever go to see Dr. Wilson. Someone left a somewhat negative review of her, but I have had the exact opposite experience seeing her. I love, love, love, Dr. Wilson and she’s the only person I will make appointments with. I even made an appointment to see her out in Fair Oaks once because she was not available in Woodbridge the day I had available to make an appointment. Fair Oaks is upwards of 50 mintues away from me, but I refuse to see anyone else.
I recently went for a last minute appointment and ended up seeing Gail, as the only doctors availabe were the male doctors, which I generally have an issue seeing. She was also fantastic. She knew her stuff, and was open to all my questions.
The rest of the staff is pleasant and awesome. I’ve never had billing/​insurance issues. Highly recommend.

I love Fairfax OBGYN! The nursing staff is top notch! Emily and Kathy are so caring and always great with answering questions and not making you feel dumb for asking questions of any kind!
I normally see Gail, who is awesome, but now that I’m pregnant I have to see others.
The first visit I saw Karen (midwife)! She is great! Awesome bedside manners, took her time answering any questions and concerns.
I’ve also seen Risa and she was great too! Very funny and made you feel at ease!
I recently saw Dr. Wilson. She is HORRIBLE! Very rude, dismissive, and made me feel dumb for the questions I had, that I stopped asking. I will not be seeing her again, if I can help it!
Overall, great practice! Other then my recent experience. I will look past that and give them 5 stars with only giving 1 star to Dr. Wilson!

Everyone at this office is extremely kind and professional, although I usually make my appts with Beth because she is especially wonderful. There is never a long wait, which is a good thing. No OB/​GYN appt is ever a pleasant experience, but the staff will do their best to make you as comfortable as possible. I highly recommend.
