5.0 star star star star starI really enjoyed meeting with Dr. Auger. Today was my first visit as a new patient, and I felt that she was warm, intelligent, and compassionate. She listened to me and my concerns - I felt heard as a patient - and she was thorough and reassuring. Overall, it was clear to me that she values patient-centered care, as well as patient autonomy and agency. I was nervous about this visit, due to some of my health concerns, but Dr. Auger really made me feel comfortable and empowered by the treatment plan that we worked on together. She also worked to make sure that I felt comfortable during the pelvic exam, which I really appreciated.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Auger was excellent at talking me through every step and continually checking in/ asking for consent to move forward which is very different than my past experiences with the same issue. She was also very responsive to my pre visit email expressing concern and made sure I knew all my options. I felt so comfortable with her and am so glad to have found a provider I trust.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Auger is truly the best doctor I've ever had, and has provided me with incredible care, support, and sincere understanding. Dr. Auger delivered our first born son, [ ], who later passed away from a rare and terminal form of [ ]. Dr. Auger supported us post partum and helped us navigate the future of expanding our family in the midst of so much grief and fear. Dr. Auger led the way, made me feel so safe the entire time, and delivered our healthy baby girl this February - a true dream that I wouldn't necessarily been as ready for, emotionally or physically, without her reassurance and support.
