Reviews of Jessica Fivecoat, MD (Doctor)

Corey Campise

If I could give negative stars I would. I’m not sure how fivecoat is still in practice. She is cold and very discomforting to talk to, her bedside manner is lacking. I went to her for about 4 years, 3 of those 4 years my Pap smears continually came back abnormal. The first year I was scared and called the office and they blew it off saying it wasn’t a big deal these things happen sometimes. The next year it came back showing mild dysplasia. I went in for my yearly visit and fivecoat insisted I have a colposcopy and a biopsy of my cervix. Being very uncomfortable and uninformed by fivecoat I asked what happens if I don’t. She says you’ll never be able to have kids, you will have to have a hysterectomy. I was 26 at the time. I have no children but one day I do wish to have them, so I’m sure you can imagine the fear and emotional wreckage she caused. My fiancé was with me for that visit. He said you’re never going back to her we’re going to find a different doctor there’s no way she’s ever delivering our child. Which I did and I am beyond glad I did. I’m lucky enough to have found the doctor that delivered me and saved my life at birth. He may have saved my life a second time. I allowed him to do the biopsy that fivecoat tried to scare me into. He told me that he would recommend it but that I didn’t have to do anything I wasn’t comfortable with. He reassured me that the spot of concern was so small that MY BODY WOULD CLEAR IT ON ITS OWN! That was last year in February 2017. I just went for my yearly exam this October 2018 and I received my first NORMAL pap result in years. I cried. Fivecoat had me believe that I would have to undergo surgery that would change my life forever and that I would end up with cervical cancer if I didn’t allow her to do the procedure. (I understand the importance of it) however a doctor should never conduct themselves the way fivecoat did or try to control patients by fear!!! They should never address a hysterectomy unless they’re absolutely positive that is exactly what has to be done and there are no other options. She is beyond unprofessional. Ladies, please think about all of these horrid reviews on here before going to fivecoat and please ALWAYS get a second opinion before allowing ANYONE to do anything. If you feel uncomfortable follow your intuition there is a reason for it.

I had an appointment to meet with Dr. Fivecoat to discuss having an ablation which my obgyn Dr. Dewey who is in the same office recommended I have for the last couple years. I have always loved Dr. Dewey but I refuse to ever to back to this office. I have 3 kids...two of which are grown and I have never in my life met a more rude and unprofessional doctor. I can’t believe Dr. Fivecoat has any patients that actually like her. She was so rude I was taken back. Next time I’m looking for a physician I will read their reviews first!! AVOID THIS DOCTOR!

I got stuck w Fivecoat for the birth of my 2nd child. I previously had Dr Dewey, so it was a huge shock to go to such a cold and uncaring provider. I had a horrifying birth experience that still haunts me 3 yrs later. Being a 2nd time mom, i knew something was wrong when I had been pushing for nearly 2 hours and my baby wasnt coming. Fivecoat claimed the epidural was causing me to "not feel my contractions so i didnt know when to push." I was in such severe pain even with the supposed epidural I could literally not open my eyes. I begged to be allowed to help stand up because I felt that then my baby would deliver but they absolutely refused. I layed there in delerium wondering why the hell they didnt c section me....crying inside for my beloved dr dewey. I know if Dewey had been there it would of been a c section. It turned out my daughter had turned her head sideways in the birth canal and got stuck. So Fivecoat made the decision for me to vacuum my daughter out (i was too delerious to protest.) My husband and mom were traumatized as well as they watched her slice me open the size of a cereal bowl and pull on my daughter's head w all of her strength. I'm amazed my daughter survived. As she stitched me up, i asked if she had children and she casually said "Nope!" W a laugh. What a slap in the face. I was so traumatized by ger birth the doctor had to give me valium! My husband swore up and down he would never ever want more children. It was the worst experience of my life. And i had to have a leg bag catheter after my first child's birth! But i would rather do that any day then have Fivecoat ever touch me again.... also i have a close girlfriend who was going through having pre cancerous cells on her cervix and a messy divorce. She desperately needed antidepressant medicine. In tears at the visit w fivecoat...she flat refused. My friend got help elsewhere. But what if she hadnt? She was so depressed she could have gone suicidal and Fivecoat REFUSED to give her even a 2 week supply of something!! DO NOT SEE FIVECOAT!! DO NOT LET HER TOUCH YOU!! RUN IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION!!

I had my anatomy ultrasound done and she didn't reassure me how my baby is doing. Like... This is my first pregnancy and she wasn't telling me ANYTHING. I ask questions then she just gives me an answer I want to here obviously. She rushes every visit. I have so many unanswered questions that it's frustrating. I am 24 weeks 4 days & still don't have a confirmation on the gender! So frustrating. Do not recommend whatsoever.

I went to Dr Fivecoat because she was the dr that could get me in the quickest. It was my first pregnancy so I didn't really know what to expect. I saw her throughout my entire pregnancy. Each time I went in, she listened to the baby's heart beat and measured my belly size.Every time I went in after 5 months I would tell her I rarely felt my baby move. She would tell me to track my baby's kicks each day. She would tell me that the heart beat sounded good and that was how each appointment went. I was feeling my baby move about TWICE A WEEK by the time I was 30 weeks along . She never did another ultra sound to make sure everything was okay. She always would tell me my belly is growing on track. I went into early labor at 36 weeks. My baby was born small for gestational age. He was 4 lbs 3 oz... that's the size of a 30ish week along pregnancy. My placenta was 1/3 of the size it should have been. My son was blue in color when he arrived. I was at St Joseph's hosbital for only 3 hours before I gave birth. Dr Fivecoat was trying to send me home! I told her i was in so much pain and that I wasn't going anywhere! About 1 1/2 hours later I was pushing... Not hooked up to and IV... No epidural... And no Dr. in site. My mom had to go find a nurse in the hallway to help me finish pushing. Dr Fivecoat did not take action when I told her my baby wasn't moving alot. He had low oxygen levels the entire pregnancy. To this day he is developmentally behind and is seeing an endocrologist for growth hormone injections. I still wonder that if Dr Fivecoat would have taken action when i showed concern about my baby's health that my son would be growing healthy now.

Dr. Fivecoat is the best doctor I have ever had. I have seen multiple ob/gyn's unhappy with my care and even though I have moved almost an hour away, I will happily travel to see her every single year. I highly recommend her.

Maureen Downing

I saw Dr Fivecoat because I needed a quick consult (my previous obgyn was no longer accepting my insurance) and she was a new doctor accepting new patients. Every visit always seemed very awkward, cold, and an inconvenience to the doctor. A lot of my questions weren't answered and I left more frustrated than before. My exams were always uncomfortable. When she went on maternity leave, I saw Dr. Brown While he had better bed side manner - I was always made to felt that they were rushed and didn't have time for me. I've since switched OBGYNs and and extremely happy with zero uncomfortable exams, detailed appointments, and a doctor that wanted to get to know ME rather than just write on my chart and be on their way.

Absolutely horrible cold doctor, I went in after going to the er as a follow up I was bleeding in early pregnancy but I did not miscarry when I went to see her with my mom and fiancé she did a ultrasound and did not even take her time with it before she said I probably have a blight ovum where the baby doesn’t grow I was in shock she could even tell that early on I am currently 4 weeks 6 days and then went on to talk about how unfortunately there with a catholic service so they have to double check before she gives me an abortion... I got a second opinion the very next day and was told I’m exactly where I should be at and the fetus doesn’t even show up until 6 weeks. Dr. Fivecoat traumatized me with cold and unprofessional words she did not care at all I almost suspect because I’m a young mother. DO NOT GO TO HER I don’t even know how she’s still in practice.

Bre Anna

I got stuck with Dr.Fivecoat since my usual OB Dr.Dewy is out of the office right now. She made the quick assumption that I was having a early miscarriage at 6 weeks because she couldn't see a heartbeat. There was no monitoring my HCG's, no come back in a few days. She immediately talked to me about my options for a D&C, pills to abort the baby or to go naturally. I choose naturally fortunately after about a week nothing happened so I went to the ER for an ultrasound and they found my pregnancy to viable and my little boy did have a heart beat!!! Because of this mistake my insurance was canceled because i have Medicaid. All they seen was that I was diagnosed with a early miscarriage. The visits after were not included in their decision. Despite my efforts to fix this or to try and be seen by her I can't! I will have to pay for the entire appointment. The insurance I had previously would have covered everything. I am 4 months pregnant now and am looking at not being seen again until 6-7 months along. My last visit was a month ago at 12 weeks. This could have been avoided if she wasn't so quick to diagnose a miscarriage so early on in a pregnancy. I've tried calling staff to get help and see if she could see me since this issue is her fault and they are no help nor do they care. I've been having medical issues and can't be seen without insurance.

Great doctor!

Do NOT go see this doctor. I was prescribed depo-provera, and it was fine at first. I have been on it for about a year. However, I am now having many problems with it, foot pain, one leg and foot hurting more than the other, bone pain, depression, acne, hair loss, weight gain, weakness, ect. There are days where I have to limp that my foot hurts so bad. I called the nurse to talk to Dr. Fivecoat about it, and Fivecoat said that my pain wasn't a cause of the birth control. I'm pretty sure my feet arn't going to start randomly hurting me so severely without a reason. I have also seen some pretty horrible reviews about her, mostly about birth. Do go elsewhere! Nobody deserves such poor treatment.

I was misdiagnosed by Dr Fivecoat. She assured me I only had fibroids without taking extra steps to confirm that it was fibroids. I ended up with stage IV B cancer. The cancer was diagnosed only once I switched doctors. I implore her patients to be extremely cautious and get a second opinion. She is the worst doctor ever.

Autumn Lambert

I feel really odd sharing this but feel like I should because wow what a terrible experience I just had. I wanted to establish with an OB closer to home so I made an appointment with Jessica Fivecoat (happens to be in the same office as my primary). Her nurse (name Kelly T.) was insanely rushed, she rolled her eyes, huffed and basically shoved me in the room. Her body language and demeanor was probably the worst I’ve experienced from a stranger. When she saw my heart rate was high she said “you need to calm yourself down” and said “you just want to reschedule??” (Insert bug eyes) Part of me wanted to get up and leave right then but I already took time away from work so I may as well have the wellness visit completed. In comes Jessica Fivecoat and I shared with her my experience and wow, she was about the same and couldn’t care less. She said “well feel free to complete a survey” my appointment with her lasted a total of 4 minutes start to finish. Looked up her reviews and turns out they are just as terrible.. Note to self: always look at reviews before seeing a new Dr.! I can’t imagine if I got stuck with this lady when it comes time to have children

I called to try to get in same day, in pain. I was told she had no appointments available until end of month or early the next month. I was asked on a scale 1—10 my pain level. I stated 8 or 9. Still would not fit me in. I now have a new, great OB!
