I was looking for a new OBGYN and went with providence. I asked for a female doctor and my appointment was scheduled with Dr. Mey Yip. My office experience was flawless, quick and efficient, nice staff and nurses. Dr. Yip was very kind and explained my concerns and gave me advice what to do if anything occurs again. Everything was great, calm and not rushed. I felt very comfortable. Great experience overall. I would definitely recommend to go see Dr. Yip.

Dr. Cashie is an amazing OBGYN. She delivered my son via c-section and was very patient and answered all my questions (no matter how many) at every visit with facts and information so i could best understand the decisions and procedures for my pregnancy and delivery. I went in wanting low intervention and she supported me. Unfortunately my circumstances didn't yield the delivery I wanted and I left my birth experience knowing it she advised the right decisions and I am very thankful for her care. I would absolutely trust her to be my OBGYN again and am so happy to have found a great doctor here in LA. Side note, the hospital she delivers at (Providence St. Josephs) is also amazing. And her office is also great. You can call and speak directly to a person instead of being forced to go through an automated phone menu. Everyone there is friendly. The longest I had to wait was 30 min when doctor Cashie was delivering a baby (!!) at the hospital across the street and the office was courteous and called to give me a heads up ahead or time.

My review is for Dr. Cashie. I saw Dr. Cashie not too long ago for general check up and pap smear. Before I begin, I want to acknowledge that she was very soothing during the exam part of my visit. She did make me feel comfortable in a vulnerable situation. I think it's safe to say that we just didn't understand each other. I would try to explain my symptoms, she would try to relay them back to me, but what she said was not correct. We went back and forth for a few minutes before she almost lost her temper and said we needed to start at the beginning. I eventually gave up and just agreed with what she was saying. I told her that I was having very serious pain during my cycle and asked if it could be a symptom of something and she said no, some people just have pain. When I asked what to do, she suggested over the counter pain medicine. I let her know that I already take several pills a day and they don't always work. Her response was "you can take more, it won't hurt you. You can also try some stretching". I'm not sure if taking 10 Advil a day for 4 days in a row, every month is healthy, but I have no other option. She did not even check to see if there was a bigger issue, didn't order blood tests, didn't ask follow up questions. I left feeling very defeated and misunderstood. I hadn't anticipated being made to feel inadequate or too sensitive by a female doctor for female issues. I recently saw my PCP and told him this story. He was concerned and said it sounds like PCOS and I need to go see another doctor soon to make sure everything is okay.
