Steven A. Chismar, MD — Obstetrics and Gynecology, Dover

Told me if I didnt have a C section he would drop me bc he wasnt pulling out a dead baby. ( estimated to be 8 pounds at 37 weeks) Refused induction, sweep and anything else I suggested. Told me if I went into labor I would get a "butt vagina" and he probably would let me push for an hour before calling it. If you like ultimatums and not having a doctor by 37 weeks then this is your guy. My 2 month old is thriving btw

Poor experience to say the least. First off, Dr. Chismar told me that perimenopause is a lie and it is not real. And that menopause does not start sooner after a partial hysterectomy. He did not help me in any way with any issues that I was having. He is quite pompous. Secondly, his office called and informed me months ago that my scheduled appointment needs to be rescheduled due to the fact the doctor is in a meeting then. Then, a week before the appointment, (that they said couldn’t take place, and was supposedly cancelled), they call and leave a VM confirming said appointment. I called back immediately, and spoke with a Missy, I believe her name is. She is rude and unprofessional. I explain to her that the office called months ago and the appointment was cancelled on their end, and now they called and left a message reminding me of said appointment and to confirm. Missy is condescending, and first says to confirm appointment after I tell her it has been cancelled. Then she says wait, and then yes, the Dr. is in a meeting at that time and the appointment needs rescheduled. I explained again that they called me months ago and it was cancelled then and I wasn’t sure why they were calling now. She told me that if I did not reschedule that the appointment would be considered a “No Show”. Excuse me? How does that even happen when you called and cancelled it months ago and cannot seem to keep anything straight or listen to a word I am saying to you. Then she literally preceded to ask me if I am going to come back or not. I have only been to this doctor once and I will never go back due to their incompetence and attitude of both the doctor and the staff. I hope this review can help someone else in the future who is trying to decide to go to this doctor or not. After reading some of the other reviews about this doctor and staff, I completely believe the low ratings and the reviews associated with the low ratings.
