John F Cabrera, MD

Unfortunately, I cannot leave ZERO star rating, so one star will do. Please, ladies do your research before choosing a doctor, especially the doctor that will be delivering your child/​children. I went with Dr. Cabrera in 2011, and I did not do my research on him, I just randomly chose him because he is close to where I live. I regret that very, very much. He is very rude, always tired, and unhelpful. I always had lots of questions, but he did not seem to care and always kept telling me that my baby was really large, maybe to cause fear in me. So, one day, two weeks before my baby was due, he said my bp was too high, that I had to stay at the hospital. I stayed, and he basically kept making me scared and worried and sort of led me to accept a C-​section, that is not what my plan was and he did not even help with any guidance as to how to deliver my baby naturally, which is what I wanted. The staff is horrible also, very unfriendly and rude. Please, do your own research and choose a really good doctor that is helpful and will guide you throughout your pregnancy.

There haven’t been too many doctors that i have had complaints with but the one that I do is named John Cabrera, the ONLY maternity doctor, let me repeat that, ONLY maternity doctor that is available on Tuesdays. Only Tuesdays. Have any plans for your Tuesday afternoon? Well scratch them all because he’s only available here Tuesdays. And mind you, there are literally dozens of pregnant women in the lobby, uncomfortably shifting in their seats and not ONE nurse ever accommodates. I’m not saying you have to bring them water or snacks but at least be helpful of your patients and care about your job.
John Cabrera has been our doctor from the very beginning and from the beginning we didn’t like his way of examination. In his mind an examination is making you wait 2 hours outside, get called in only for him to feel your stomach, give you really vague answers about your pregnancy and just proceed to give you a slip to see you in a month (sometimes a week) later.
My girlfriend is 7-​months pregnant right now and we had an appointment last Tuesday. Not only did they fail to inform us that Dr. Cabrera had left to do a hospital appointment, but they made us wait THREE HOURS with every hour the same nurse telling us over and over again, «He’ll be back in 10 mins!» It was ridiculous. We left at 6:10 pm, having arrived at 2 in the afternoon. By the end of the entire thing my girlfriend was tired, restless and just overall disappointed that this man was our doctor for our boy.

Dr. Cabrera is a very knowledgable doctor. But his nurse is horrible, she is a very rude person. The way she talks is disgusting. She didn’t know how to communicate with patients. They have to fire her. She has to take special classes how to talk nicely and more polite. This is America she has to respect patients instead of ignoring them.
Dr. Cabrera is the best one. I will recommend him to all of my friends and everyone!

Dr Cabrerra is a good doctor but I remember on two of my visit he had an office assistant who was viewing my pap smear and she just stared right inside my vagina without even blinking. She was suppose to be in the room with the doctor and me. She behaves as if she was the doctor and I still cant understand today why she had to take the view and stared right into me as if she is not a woman. Tell me why would another woman wants to stare inside another woman’s vagina she was only a medical assistant and should be looking at the doctor and not me. I do not like another woman staring at my vagina!!!

That bitch sandy should be fired, rude incompetent please stay far far far away LADIES !!!

I saw Dr Cabrera for my last pregnancy and he was awesome! I had a «birth plan» and he was completely down for all of it. As any mother knows things don’t always goes as planned in the world of labor and delivery and some changes were made. But I always felt safe and supported with him. He even laughed at my jokes during delivery and took a video of my husband cutting the cord. He’s a wonderful, very professional doctor!

I have been going to Dr. Cabrera for the past 12 years. Dr. delivered my son in 2004 and every year since then I have been seeing him and lovely Yamilet, his nurse every year for annual pap smear. I had never had any problems with Dr. or his nurse. To add to one of the reviewer’s comments, I also have implants and Dr. is well aware of my implants when he does my annul breast tissue examination/​evaluation. He or his nurse never had any unprofessional comments towards me or my implants. I find it hard to believe that Dr. was ever rude or unprofessional to any patient in his care. He has been and is one of the most caring doctors I have met.

Extremely rude and unprofessional! We went in for a follow up visit from a recent surgery. After waiting for 2 hours past our appointment, we asked Dr. Cabrera why it was taking so long and he told us that if we didn’t like it we should leave reschedule the appointment. We didn’t get an apology of any kind for the wait, just a rude response telling us to leave if we don’t like it. While the other doctors in the office are wonderful, Dr. Cabrera is a sad part of it.

Dr. Cabrera is an exceptional physician! He is not only caring and compassionate, he also makes sure I am at ease and comfortable during each and every visit. He is very knowledgable and takes the time to explain my examinations and/​or treatments so I am fully aware and educated about my health and my options for taking the best care of myself. The office staff is very friendly and helpful. They are accommodating to all my needs and always ensure my appointments are on time. After being Dr. Cabrera’s patient for almost 8 years, I cannot imagine trusting anyone else with my GYN needs. I, (like all of his patients, I’m sure) feel very fortunate that when I decide to embark on the journey of parenthood, I will be in the best of hands. If you are in search of an OBGYN, I would say RUN, not walk, but run on over to the Women’s Center at Glendale Memorial Hospital for a visit with Dr. John Cabrera! You can all thank me later :)

I have been Dr Cabrera’s patient for over a number of years. Dr Cabrera is attentive and listens to all my concerns and provides alternatives solutions to my needs. I recommend his services.
