"One of the rudest doctors I have ever came across. My baby measured 10 pounds in the ultrasound I had taken and I was 41 weeks at that point. Going through a hard time during labor, I wasn’t dilating at all even being induced so obviously something was wrong. She refused a c section and I had to endure a very painful and long and difficult time when it was time to push. Turns out my cervix bone is shaped to tonwhere I can never give birth and ultimately needed a c section. IF SHE INITIALLY AGREED TO A C SECTION DUE TO MY BABY WEIGHING BIGGER THEN NORMAL I WOULDVE NEVER ENDURED ALL OF THAT!!! After my surgery my medication wasn’t working and I was in immense amount of pain, she wouldn’t prescribe me something else and quite frankly did not care. She is one of the rudest doctors I have ever came across and I hope to never have to deal with her again. All of the other doctors in Hera Obgyn are a God sent, I will always vouch for them! Dr. Tow on the other hand needs to work at the DMV with ...
that nasty attitude of hers. REQUEST A DIFFERENT DOCTOR IF YOU SEE YOURE SCHEDULED WITH HER "

"I highly recommend you DO NOT USE Dr. Esther Tow-Der as your surgeon! She was extremely negligent and careless during what should have been a routine hysterectomy. She performed this surgery on me in late February of 2022 and immediately thereafter, I started having major bladder issues. After consulting with a local Urologist, I discovered Dr. Tow had stitched 2 holes through my bladder while doing the surgery with the Da Vincini Robot. I was immediately referred to UCSF and had to wait until July to have surgery to repair the holes in my bladder. The repair surgery was unsuccessful so now I need a 2nd surgery to again, try and repair my bladder. She hasn’t even called to apologize or check to see how I’m doing when she’s the one who caused the issue. I have been confined to my home for over 7 months with nothing but medical problems & surgeries and it’s far from over. Stay away from this doctor!"
