Marissa Heather Platner, MD

This could have been my interpretation, but I felt a little judged by the doctor OB my decision to decline an optional test. Pregnancy comes with so many decisions, procedures and costs, and it would have been nice if my preference for this was accepted as totally valid and up to me.

I have never had such an amazing experience elsewhere. The entire team was amazing in aiding me and making me feel comfortable the entire time

Good

We are very happy with the service

During it last visit with Dr PLATNER I felt she was very rushed presenting "abnormal findings" on my fetal echo report, I also received very little information about what actually was abnormal and what to expect if indeed that was the final diagnosis. A follow up fetal echo at CHOA revealed there no abnormality.

Felt the provider lacked empathy and did not explain herself well.

It was a devastating outcome that was handled with respect and care by Dr. Platner. I would be glad to see her in the future.

Really appreciated Dr. Platner's explanation and reassurance!

Good

Had a bad experience at another clinic, so this experience was amazing even though by the information wasn't the best, the care the doctor took with explaining everything was super helpful and appreciated

My first visit was great, but in my second visit the ultrasound tech seemed to be in a rush, didn't explain much, barely answered questions, didn't share a pic, nothing. I was glad there wasn't the need to talk much because there weren't any problems, but her treatment felt dismissive.

Good

This was one of the best appointments I've ever had at Emory. Every provider was exceptional - understanding, caring, and thorough. I left in a better mood than the mood I was In when I came in!

Dr. Platner has been wonderful! She is compassionate, empathetic and answered all our questions patiently.

Great Dr she provided info was thorough and took time to answer my questions very nice

I almost always feel that I leave the Perinatal Center with more questions and confusion than I came in with. Some doctors there have really scared me with possible diagnoses that ended up not applying to me. Others just sort of shrug and don't give much in the way of answers to my questions. Dr. Platner is in the latter category. (I'll give a shout-out here to Dr. Tanner, who has been the calmest and most balanced in her bedside manner! Every time I come in I hope to see her.)
