What Patients Are Saying

Dr. Canavan is an exceptional physician! She spends quality time with her patients. Dr. Canavan understands the stressors surrounding reproductive health and how it can affects one's psyche. She is empathetic, extremely knowledgeable, kind, and wants the best outcome for her patients.

Dr Canavan was excellent. I am very glad that I switched providers. I have already reccomended her to others.

Although Dr. Canavan is a very nice person, the appointment from beginning to end was extremely rushed, we did not talk about/explore my symptoms, and she told me the treatment plan without asking me any questions. I even shared I did not want a pap as I just had one and she replied by saying I probably didn't have one and to do It anyways. I said ok because I was in a vulnerable state being undressed but the experience felt extremely stressful, painful, and non-consentual. My other concern is that she pushed surgical removal of polyps without seeing my symptoms from a wider angle. It turns out I have adenomyosis (confirmed through a pelvic MRI) so she completely missed this diagnosis, minimized my concerns, and wanted to schedule a surgery unrelated to the pain I am experiencing. She also encouraged an IUD without asking me if I even want birth control. It felt pushy, rushed and overwhelming.
