Dr Erika Brandenstein makes visits easy. She listens, answers all questions and concerns, is kind, compassionate and encouraging. I sure wish more doctors could be like that. Dr. Brandenstein is a gem and l am grateful she is my doctor.

Feb 21, 2024

Dr. Brandenstein was very compassionate. She is the first provider to offer to help me figure out why I keep having these issues.

Feb 19, 2024

They took the time to listen to me...

Feb 9, 2024

Dr. Brandenstein is the best. Easy to talk to and she is very patient, caring, and knowledgeable.

Feb 9, 2024

Dr. Brandenstein is outstanding. Reid is lucky to have her as a physician.My appointment was on time and she was very thorough.

Feb 7, 2024

Dr. Brandenstein is phenomenal. The only criticism I have is the room was very cold to be sitting with minimal clothing while waiting for the actual exam.

Feb 7, 2024

Dr. Brandenstein was amazing. She listened intentionally to what my concerns were and she provided the most gentle exam I've ever experienced (she was also fast which was awesome) Her bedside manner as well as her professionalism are unmatched. This has been one of the best experiences I've ever had as a patient at Reid.

Feb 7, 2024

They gave me a warm blanket and gown because I was cold. Very nice.

Feb 1, 2024

My nurse seemed to be having a rough day

Jan 29, 2024

Made me feel comfortable in their care. Made me feel like I could ask any question and nothing was awkard.

Jan 19, 2024

Dr. Brandenstein listened to all of my concerns and provided great resources to help get them resolved. Very thankful for her help!

Jan 19, 2024

Everyone was pleasant and informative.

Jan 15, 2024

Waited 2 hours to be seen with an appointment. Time needs to be managed properly and communicate with the patients better.

Jan 4, 2024

Each person I saw - receptionist, nurse, and doctor - was both knowledgeable and personable, and it was an excellent experience throughout.

Jan 3, 2024

This is my 8th baby. Of all the providers I have seen Dr. Brandenstein is by far the best doctor I have ever had. She took the time to listen to me and ease my fears. She even went above and beyond and prayed for me before I left which meant the world to me! Thank you!!

Dec 18, 2023

Thank you Dr. Brandenstein for being the first doctor in years to listen to me and be receptive, supportive and understanding! You are the kind of doctor all women need!

Dec 13, 2023

After over 20 years of health issues, I found a doctor who listened and wants to help. I've always used Reid OB/Gyn but today was different.

Nov 29, 2023

Dr. Brandenstein is very caring and wonderful. Always smiling and polite. She's the best.

Nov 29, 2023

It was my first visit with Doctor Brandenstein. She was friendly, knew my history and was helpful.

Nov 29, 2023

First visit with the OBGYN and I felt very comfortable and cared for. She was excellent! I would highly recommend her.

Nov 28, 2023

I'm a new patient and the entire staff was helpful and pleasant. I'm very pleased with the care I received. Thank you.

Nov 16, 2023

Dr. Brandenstein is both knowledgeable and personable. She's a caring compassionate person and I just hope that she stays in Richmond!!

Nov 16, 2023

She very personable and listens to what I said. She has a student with her and was very good with her also. Very good doctor

Nov 8, 2023

Dr. Brandenstein is AMAZING. GYN appointments are never fun - but if it has to be done - I'm sure glad it is with her! The entire staff is always wonderful. :)

Oct 26, 2023

Erika has always been very professional and a caring Dr. I would recommend her to any of my female family members and friends!! She is so knowledgeable and puts you to ease the whole visit and her staff was so friendly. Thank You

Oct 25, 2023

She is the only doctor I will be seeing from now on moving forward. She was amazing!

Oct 23, 2023

Dr. Erika is like sunshine. She makes me at ease just by stepping in the room. She listens and really hears what I'm saying.

Oct 16, 2023

Dr. Brandenstein was very nice and all smiles, but my entire visit felt rushed and impersonal. Once she came in she quickly introduced herself and the medical student with her without making eye contact. Then immediately laid me back and had the student measure my belly. The second they had a measurement she sat me up and tried wrapping up the visit. Didn't ask me if I had any questions or concerns. I had to interrupt her to go over pain I've been in before she rushed out the door. She then continuously interrupted me as I was telling her my concerns. I would mention one topic, she'd rush through a response, then try to move on and finish the visit when I still had more questions. I had to interrupt her three times to get all my worries addressed. She did get further testing for kidney pain I was having, but it was just another urine sample. However the visit felt very much rushed. Like she was just trying to get me done and out of the way for the next patients, which is completely understandable but every visit with your doctor should be personal especially when it's your first appointment with said doctor. Will not be seeing her again.

Friendly, effective and professional staff. RN, MD and checkout staff did an amazing job. Felt cared for!

Sep 26, 2023

Dr Brandenstein is terrific!

Sep 22, 2023

Provider was fine. It was the experience leading up to seeing the provider. Waited 2 hours in total. About 45 minutes in the waiting room. Was called back, vitals checked, then left in the room for 57 minutes before provider came. During that 57 minutes, was strapped to a NST monitor, which should only last 15 minutes tops. MA came in twice during the time and told me the baby needed to wake up/wasn't moving enough. Baby was moving fine the whole time. Was connected to the monitor for 52 minutes. I was given a NTS on Wednesday at MFM, which actually means I shouldn't have even had one today. I felt like they were just stalling until the provider could see me.

Sep 20, 2023

This is the first time a provider really paid attention and took into consideration our concerns for this ongoing issue. We also never felt talked down to when we voiced concerns or had questions.

Sep 20, 2023

I can't say enough about how amazing Dr. Brandenstein is. She is familiar with what's going on before she walks into the room. She goes over all previous treatment in detail. I never feel rushed when I see her. She always listens and makes sure I know she understands my situation completely. She remembers each individual and makes sure to provide personalized care. I have anxiety when it comes to being seen by healthcare providers but her presence always soothes my soul. She is a kind and compassionate human with the knowledge and experience to heal the body and mind. Dr. Brandenstein is truly a blessing to so many. I wish every doctor genuinely cared the way she does.

Sep 19, 2023

I liked this provider and would like to continue having her. I felt understood and very comfortable with her.

Sep 18, 2023

Dr. Brandenstein is truly one of a kind. She is a fantastic doctor and her up-beat personality is contagious! Her bedside manner is, without a doubt, second to none. I know I will never find another doctor I feel that comfortable with and trust completely, in my lifetime. I have sent people I know to Reid obgyn, specifically to see her. When I was pregnant with my twins, I trusted her 100% after only 1 appointment with her. I only wanted her, going forward, for my appointments/care, as well as the delivery of my babies. Now, years later, she is still just as amazing! I felt like she had a very clear, well explained plan for my care. I was very anxious about this appointment, but that went away as soon as she entered the room. There really is no one better. Whatever she is being paid, Reid needs to double it. No joke. She is irreplaceable and an asset to Reid health. Now, go forth and write her a fat check. She deserves it. ;-)

Sep 8, 2023

Dr. Brandenstein is always so warm and welcoming. She eases the experience, always listens carefully, and responds to my questions. I always feel that she knows me well and cares. I am so grateful.

Sep 7, 2023

Everyone that I encountered at the ObGyn office was awesome! I was greeted with a smile when I first walked into the waiting room. Dr Brandenstein takes the time to listen to my concerns and provide the answers I need. She had a medical student with her today. I appreciated listening to her take the time to teach this young lady what she was doing and why she was doing it. Even though this is a busy office, I never felt rushed or unimportant.

Aug 28, 2023

I have seen this provider twice. The first time I waited about 45 minutes for her to come into the room after the nurse left. The second time I waited almost an hour. Both times the amount of time she spent in the room was roughly 5-6 minutes. She's very nice, but the wait time with the amount of time she actually spends with you isn't worth it. The appointments were very rushed. So much so, I felt like I couldn't have time to discuss concerns thoroughly because she was just in and out.

Aug 28, 2023

Dr. Erika B Brandenstein is absolutely amazing!

Aug 22, 2023

Jun 14, 2023

Dr Brandenstein has a happy demeanor. She is understandable while dispensing my medical challenge, and she covered what to expect in a quick unbalancing manner; I greatly appreciate that as I am not anxious about the coming procedure. I have complete trust in her knowledge and her patient care. She said she cares about me and based on everything she just told me, I know her words to be true.

Apr 17, 2023

In the few years with this young Dr. I have found her very helpful

Apr 12, 2023

I love Dr. Brandenstein. She always listens to my concerns and helps to execute a solution. I have been dealing with menstrual cramps for most of my life. She has tried to help with birth control. I have finally gotten to where I just can't take it anymore and she talked to me about and ablation. I love how she cares for her patients needs and meets the needs of her patients. I will continue to see Dr. Brandenstein!
