Dr. Engelman is a very good listener and doesn't rush his appointments! He has a good bedside manner.

Dr Engleman is very attentive and listens to you. He lets you explain why you choose to do things the way you are and seems to understand. He agrees to give it a chance and even might take s look and research my choice of supplements so he can educate himself more on the matter. I really like him as a doctor and have nothing but good things to say about him. He is super easy to talk to and upbeat and happy and it shows in his work. Highly recommend Dr. Peter Engleman NKC hospital. You do you! 😉

08/13/2024

Dr. Engelman is very compassionate and easy to talk to. Although he is in a field that caters to women, he is totally understanding and respects the female body eventhough he is the medical professional. He never made me feel like I was stupid for asking questions or tried to assert dominance over the appointment. It was like talking to and old friend. He is a great physician and specifically an OBGYN.

03/07/2024

Dr Englemen is a wonderful Doctor and would highly recommend him to anyone that needs an OB. I've felt heard, and genuinely listened to since having to see him for my high-risk pregnancy. He had to a Cholposcopy on me for my first time meeting him and I had never felt more comfortable with an OB. Made sure i knee what was going on the whole time. Afterward, listened to me complain about my first pregnancy OB appt since the Doctors Assistant made me feel like a criminal. I was smoking weed before I was pregnant. I didn't know I was pregnant and the DAY I found out, I stopped. The Doctor and her assistant ordered a blood test which I knew I'd be positive for. They told me that legally if I test positive in my second, and third trimester, and at birth they'd have to contact CPS. I was honest that I had smoked and they made me feel like I was doing something wrong. After telling Dr Engelmen, he apologized, said thank you for being honest; and I'm now almost in my third trimester and have NOT had another blood test. So I feel like the MA said most of those things to scare me. I'm not a first time mom. I gave birth to my firstborn in WA state where weed is legal, and has been for almost 15 years. Just want Dr Englemen to know how appreciative I am that he was able to ease my mind when it came to CPS being called. He never said it wouldn't happen, just reiterated that if I had stopped when I said I did, then all would be fine.

02/03/2024

Dr. Engleman is kind, and thorough, and I felt like he cared for me as a person.

12/27/2023

Visit went as anticipated. Dr. Engelman was on time and addressed any issues. My GYN retired so it’s never fun to make that switch. I did leave feeling confident that I made a good choice for my future health care needs.

12/27/2023

Made me feel comfortable and seemed genuinely concerned about what I was saying.

12/21/2023

Dr. Engelman listens to your concerns and answers questions completely. He is caring and doesn’t rush you out of his office to get to the next patient. His office was on time with my appointment and helpful when scheduling the next one. I would highly recommend him.

12/13/2023

Meritas Health at NKC Hospital is a very professional office with a friendly staff. I am always made to feel comfortable while there. My gynecologist recently retired so I saw a new doctor, Dr. Peter Engelman. He was professional and kind. I would highly recommend this office to any woman seeking medical attention.

08/10/2023

Dr. Engleman was very gentle with his exam. He talked me through everything he was doing while he was doing it. I was very nervous and anxious for my appointment and within 5 minutes of him walking in the room my nerves and anxiety levels came down. He always walks in with a smile. For someone who doesn’t trust a lot of doctors I can say I trust him 100%.

08/10/2023

Dr Engelman is very thorough and explains issues very well. I would recommend him to everyone.

08/10/2023

Dr. Engelman is a fabulous OB who listens to concerns and carries an open dialogue to notify you of next steps.

He's phenomenal and would recommend this practice, Meritas 12th floor to others. .

06/23/2023

After already thinking Dr. Engelman was wonderful and very knowledgeable he impressed me yet again after his interaction with my daughter. Due to childcare issues she had to last minute join me for my check up! He allowed her to wear gloves and help with hearing the fetal heart beat! She felt so special! We need more providers like him in this world!

06/09/2023

Dr Engleman is a good listener and I feel like he is thorough and wants the best for my health. Not just a basic annual review but best health outcomes.

He has an excellent bedside manner and really cares about his patients physical, mental, and emotional health. He also is very smart and knows how to diagnose and treat the patient efficiently. I have only seen and heard good things about him for myself and many others.

03/23/2021

Dr. Engelman definitely chose the perfect profession. I have had the pleasure of seeing him for several years now. He has been one of my treating doctors for three of my four pregnancies. He connects with his patients on a personal level and listens to their concerns. You can rely on him to be honest but not judgmental. I would highly recommend him as an OBGYN.

07/24/2020

Dr Engelman is very patient,listen to you and he will answer every question the best way he could,he took my pregnancy very serious he never ignored anything no matter how small it could be.He was my doctor through out my pregnancy and I will definitely come back and recommend him.wish I can give him 10 stars.KEEP THE GOOD WORK DOC.

06/04/2019

Very friendly, professional and easy going doctor. During my pregnancy I have seen a lot of doctors in this practice and Dr. Engelman was always nice explaining everything and encouraging to ask questions. The best part he was always on time for the appointments.

05/20/2019

I’ve been seeing Dr. Engelman for the last several years normally just for a well woman. On the off chance I’ve needed to come in for something. He’s always put me at ease and answered any questions i could have.

05/07/2019

Dr. Engelman was the BEST throughout my pregnancy! He is relaxed, easy going but can be honest and have tough conversations without you feeling judgement. He is able to see your perspective and explain things in a way that is helpful and not overwhelming.

05/05/2019

I found Dr. Engelman very nice and personable. He explained everything he was going to do and recommended a few birth control options that checked all the boxes I was looking for in a birth control method. He was great during the in office procedure I had with him in talking me through the steps to put me more at ease and keep me informed. I highly recommend Dr. Engelman and am looking forward to continue seeing him as my OBGyn.

11/27/2018

I had a great experience with Dr. Engelman, not typically something you say coming out of an OB/GYN's office. He was very kind, thoughtful and listened to all of my questions. He took his time with me and explained everything. He did not rush and was very gentle during his exam. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking care from a new OB/GYN. I am actually looking forward to my next appointment.

09/21/2018

He has been my doctor for years now and since my very first Well Woman Exam he has made me feel comfortable, relaxed, and well taken care of. He listens and explains everything very well and provides excellent care and advice. I would recommend him every time to someone looking for a new, great doctor.

08/25/2018

Very caring and truly made me feel comfortable talking about my issues. I would recommend him to anyone of my family or lady friends.

03/16/2018

In May of 2017 I suffered a miscarriage and I was heart broken Dr Engleman helped me and encouraged me though a hard time he truly cares about his patients I highly recommend going to him

03/07/2018

Being a female, most people aren't comfortable but starting my pregnancy coverage with this practice was the best decision every. I never felt uncomfortable at anytime during the visit, and he answered all of my questions and asked me a lot of question in which he took into consideration and made sure that I didn't leave confused or concerned regarding the care for of my baby.

04/20/2017

At first I thought this doctor was fantastic, and he was doing what was best for me. Today he dropped me as a patient, but still wanted me to follow up with him, if there is nothing you can do for me, I will find someone who will help me. I found out he was speaking to my other physicians without my permission. Which is a total violation of my trust. I am extremely disappointed and embarrassed. I will not be recommending him to friends, family, or even an aquaintance.

02/08/2017

I have been treated by Dr. Engelman for about a year now, and let me just say, I enjoyed each and every visit! A wonderful staff , clean offices, and short waiting times are always a plus, but the care I have received is really the star of the show here. Dr.Engelman walks in with a beautiful smile and warm handshake each and every visit, and has a special gift for putting you at ease while maintaining a cool honesty that is refreshing. He is a pure joy to work with! Smart, patient, relatable??

01/26/2017

I had a very good overall experience with dr. Engelmann, he took his time every visit I had with him. Dr. Engelman delivered and checked on me offten making sure I was ok and if I needed anything. After delivery he made sure I was ok. He was the best Dr. I had seen in the office. Very good dr.
