This office has been a truly terrible experience when it comes to the care of my wife. She is a high risk pregnancy with our first child and the staff seems nonchalant to every one of our concerns. I tell them all her struggles and the same …
They try to do the best is hard to understand but I do it because they have families and life’s as us , all we want is to make sure the baby is gonna be okay and no matter what we trust on you guys . Thx
Commuted an hour to see these guys! They were so awesome, and gave me so much peace after a long and crazy pregnancy. Super friendly, genuine, and knowledgable!

Excellent care from the receptionist to the nurse and Dr. Joseph’s. I was nervous for this appointment and they all showed empathy and compassion before and during my appointment.
If you want a preterm loss this is the practice to visit. The support staff is awful. They do not return calls when you call the physician with issues, and they will not see you with issues unless you push to be brought in. Then you will …

Dr. Josephs is an angel on earth! He and his team are such great people and every experience with them leaves me feeling confident with my health and care.
Pregnancy during a pandemic is highly unusual but I’ve been attending since before stay at home orders and the office adjusted very well. Never had very long wait times and office staff is polite. Natalie is a delight and she ensures she addresses any concerns you present to her.

As far as the gals at the front and both nurse practitioners go, they’re absolutely wonderful and amazing to work with. The few nurses I was partnered with, on the other hand, are the exact opposite and although I never met the practicing …

Amazing environment and Dr’s. I am a newer patient and Dr. Joseph is one amazing person. Not only is he a doctor, but someone you can talk emotions out with. After I miscarried I was scared to tell anyone. I messaged the office through …
Dr. Joseph’s is a very friendly and lighthearted man. He instantly made me feel comfortable and welcome the first time we met. Amy and the other nurse practitioners/midwives are very knowledgeable and will take the time to answer any and all questions I have. I am looking forward to my birthing experience with them!

This is the worst office I’ve ever been to! Lady in the front needs to be more polite and chill out! They aren’t organized what do ever and don’t care for their patients. Got surgery done and taking hours of calling up to try to get things …

Dr. Josephs and his staff have delivered all 3 (on my 4th one now), of my babies. I trust only him and Ms. Amy. I used to live in Richmond and now I live in Maryland and will continue to make that commute as long as him and his staff are …
Always a great experience at Advanced Care for Women! Dr. Josephs and the entire team (Nurses, Assistants, Ultrasound techs, Lab techs, Front desk /Administrative staff, etc. ) are all kind, professional and make you feel comfortable throughout your appointment. Thank you all!
I do not recommend! I went there about 2 years ago when Dr. Blackwood and Dr. Carpenter worked, and they were amazing! I recently scheduled an appointment for a new dr. Since the others left (no wonder!). I drove to the same office suite as …
Amy Amy Amy is theeeee Bomb. She delivered my 7th child last year and I am pregnant again . I can’t wait to see.
The whole experience with her was amazing… and I’ve had horrible experiences …
I have been seeing Dr. Josephs for 12 years. He’s amazing. He has been there for my two children and for all my ups and downs along the way. His staff are friendly and helpful. I have sent many friends and family members his way over the years. Keep being awesome!
As far as the gals at the front and both nurse practitioners go, they’re absolutely wonderful and amazing to work with. The few nurses I was partnered with, on the other hand, are the exact opposite and although I never met the practicing …
I am not a patient at this practice but I am looking for a new OBGYN. I just want to say “thank you”to all who have posted their reviews, were it not for you I might have made the mistake of going to this practice. …
Customer Service at intake was friendly and Everyone in the office setting greeted you with a smile! Dr Amy was Caring, Informative and Honest! She makes you feel really comfortable and that she cares! I would definitely recommend!
Advanced Care For Women deserves way more then 5 stars. This team simply put is absolutely amazing and will surpass all expectations. Dr. Brian Joseph’s is the best Dr. I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I was anxious during my …
Dr Joseph’s and Amy are THE BEST, hands down!!!! I have seen Dr J for 9 years now and he’s always listened to me and been very empathetic as I have had my ups and downs along the way! I do miss my favorite nurse but the staff is still amazing!
I absolutely love my doctor!! She always makes me feel comfortable which is very important to me and thoroughly answers any questions that I have. The front desk staff are always very welcoming and kind. Overall a fantastic office!
Dr. Joseph is an amazing physician due to his wealth of knowledge and his amazing bedside manner! I had been with the same OB/GYN for many years and suffered many problems. She was tenacious! When one Tx plan failed, she kept at it until I …
I’ve been a patient of Dr Joseph’s for 11 years now. By far, he is the most excellent OBGYN I’ve ever seen. I call him the “gentle giant”, but don’t underestimate the knowledge and skill of this Dr. Without fail, he has always provided …
I can’t think of any words to describe how grateful I am for having Dr Josephs take care of me from being in the hospital with my ectopic pregnancy and up until now with helping me be able to have a successful pregnancy. I feel 100% taken …
Amazing environment and Dr’s. I am a newer patient and Dr. Joseph is one amazing person. Not only is he a doctor, but someone you can talk emotions out with. After I miscarried I was scared to tell anyone. I messaged the office through …
Dr. Joseph’s is a very friendly and lighthearted man. He instantly made me feel comfortable and welcome the first time we met. Amy and the other nurse practitioners/midwives are very knowledgeable and will take the time to answer any and all questions I have. I am looking forward to my birthing experience with them!
Amy Frederick is the most amazing midwife/person I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting! She has now been my obstetric care provider since 2017. Although I did have her as a nurse, before she became a midwife and had her own practice, with …
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I love Amy (midwife) & Dr. Josephs. They actually listen and care about you on a personal level. They take their own call for OB patients which other practices trade on call time so you could get a random doctor you have …
The staff at Advanced Care for Women were all very pleasant to work with and helped me get seen in a difficult situation I am dealing with. After leaving an unsatisfying OB office and coming here put my mind at ease being pregnant for the first time and being scared. Thank you all so much!
I have had two children through this office and loved seeing Amy Frederick for both. I met Dr. Joseph’s during the last pregnancy and he was great with me too. The front staff are an issue. There seems to be a lot of turnover and I’ve …
My 1st visit with Dr. Joseph went great. We discussed my concerns, he listened and gave good advice. The front desk was friendly & helpful when I had called and came in the office. I have found my new Doctor & office. I’m hoping this is my forever Doctor.
I love this Dr office…I am new to the area and was so nervous about having to find a new place and with this being my very first baby I didn’t know what to expect. I contemplated on driving back and forth to PA to stay with my family’s Dr …
I’ve been going to the practice for some time, and really appreciated the time that Amy Frederick took to talk to me about my concerns. Unfortunately, that courtesy does not extend outside of the office. She ordered an ultrasound to …
I had my very first appointment with Advanced Care For Women today and my overall experience was great! This was my first time meeting with a GYN so I was pretty nervous. The entire staff made sure that I was comfortable and given the help …
Love ACFW! They have been a wonderful office all around for my entire pregnancy. I had my little one in April and they have been great the entire time answering any questions I have had!
I chose this office/facility because I wanted a woman doctor, I have Amy as my doctor she is fabulous the whole entire staff is amazing. They make you feel genuine as soon as you walk in the door very personable any question you have they will go above and beyond to answer extremely helpful. I definitely recommend this practice.
Amy is awesome for well woman care but BEWARE the billing is predatory. I came in for a well woman exam, never discussed mental health or treatment for mental health, but my insurance was charged $50 for a “brief behavioral evaluation”. …
Got the nexplanon birth control in my arm about a year ago and I wasn’t explained the side effects I have been on my period for the past 3 months I called to express my concern and was told I wouldn’t be able to get an appointment until 2 …
I don’t normally write reviews. But I have been seeing Dr. Kownack for almost a year now and she is absolutely wonderful. She really cares and has a wonderful demeanor. I have had a fair share of issues and she is always very helpful. I …
I had my first appointment there after being unhappy at another GYNO- I’m 30 weeks pregnant, from the moment my hubby and I walked in the door they were kind and welcoming. My visit was all together great and we felt welcomed from start to …
I’m beyond happy with Dr. Joseph’s and the entire team at Advanced Care For Women! It’s clear that he takes great pride in the work that he does. I feel as if I’m “family” when I walk through the door. It’s refreshing to have a provider …
First time visiting this office since I just moved to the area , the staff was nice and friendly and I received some nice welcome gifts and gift cards. My appointment was at 10:30 and I was out of the office by 11:30, this was my first pregnancy visit. The office was also nice and clean I’m excited to start this new journey at ACFW!
Every time I’ve gone into Advanced Care For Women everyone is friendly and knowledgeable. The office runs extremely efficiently, they truly value your time and get you in and out quickly while still providing the best care possible. Doctor …
Just left the office it was closed its exactly 4:30 and website says they close at 5. I decided to drive to office b/c I called at 3:30pm just to be put on hold for more then 10min. So I hung up. This isn’t a good start. Hopefully I can get …
I had such a great experience here. This is my first pregnancy and I was a little nervous but all of the staff was so friendly. And Dr. Annie Kownack is such a sweetheart. She explained everything that would happen for my transvaginal …
Dr. Josephs is my favorite doctor of all time. Since day one, which has been over 7 years ago, he has put me completely at ease. Dr. Josephs has taken very good care of me and all the ails that come with being an aging woman. (Surgeries and …
Thrilled with this practice! I started visiting Advanced Care after switching from Elite Women’s Health and have nothing but positive things to say about Dr. Josephs, Amy and Anne (midwives) and all the nurses and administrative staff. Our …
I was referred by several friends and family to come to Advanced Care for Women when I found out I was pregnant. I have to say I wish I had started here years ago! I honestly feel so comforted that I have finally found such an amazing …
I had a great experience here thanks to the staff who were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable! Dr. Brian Josephs is a phenomenal doctor who delivered our baby boy and did my postpartum check up. Not only did he provide last minute …
I called they said if I could be put on hold I said yes. When they unmuted me they pretended not to hear me and hung up. I called 2 more times they refuse to answer. All I wanted was as to ASK A QUESTION if they accepted my insurance…never mind I guess.
This is the worst office I’ve ever been to! Lady in the front needs to be more polite and chill out! They aren’t organized what do ever and don’t care for their patients. Got surgery done and taking hours of calling up to try to get things …
Called to schedule an appointment for my wife and the lines were down — ended up contacting staff via billing department. I was instructed to call back snd schedule appointment on another day due to phone issues. I drove to the facility …
I have been going here for a few years now and have had no issues at all, until I needed an order for additional imaging for a mammogram. I have been calling for a week trying to get this order. No one cares, no one returns your phone call, …
Ann Kownack, CNM is a gem at this office! She is always willing to go the extra mile to put her patients needs first and make their experience as best as possible. She acts not only as a provider, but a great support system and friend, as …
I recently had my rainbow baby with this superb healthcare team – I was seen by all 3 of them during my high-risk pregnancy. Me and my husband had such a terrible experience on our miscarriage with another clinic (we immediately left that …
The waiting area is beautiful!! Of course that’s the first thing that caught my eyes lol. Today was my first visit and everyone was super friendly from the moment I walked in. My doctor was Amy and she made me feel comfortable with my …
