I feel its best to let the patient get dresses before telling them what you found after an exam. I was overwhelmed and couldn’t take notes. Also, was not given all the options that were possible.

He really does great work with procedures but he’s kind of a jerk when he talks (like a lot of doctors). So it makes it hard for me to tell him stuff or ask questions with the fear that he’s going to make me feel dumb. But again, surgeries he’s my go to!

Dr Ashford is the best of the best. I was even told this by a friend who works in urology business. “He might run late a lot, but only because he’s thorough and is a perfectionist when performing surgery.”
I certainly wouldn’t want anything else!

Dr. Ashford was very professional and I am extremely happy with the results. I had been with two other doctors and didn’t get satisfactory results.
I feel like I have my life back again. I would recommend him to any of my relatives or friends.

I love the feeling of hope MN Womens Care gave me. I felt hopeless and ruined and I feel their vision for us as women will be something great. Although, it has grown too fast and it provides less quality in that I felt rushed and it was obviousl some staff felt the same. The big promises were unfulfilled for me due to the restraints in my care. If I had to reschedule an appt I would not have a chance to reschedule within a short time frame due to their just being too many patients and not enough availability. Due to the holistic program that intertwined together of chiropractic, physical therapy, physiotherapy, Urogynecology, urostim and a work out program it was easy to get behind in one. So, I would suggest to be more thorough with each of us initially until it is strong enough program to work at a faster pace. Do t get me wrong this is a great place. I just can’t quite give 5 stars

Dr. Ashford is amazing. He makes sure that you really understand what your options are and what the best possible outcomes are likely to be. I also love that he also has a physical therapy aspect to his practice. I’m so glad that I found him when I was searching for a Uro-Gynecologist to help with my incontinence!

We drove over 100 miles for the appointment with Dr. Ashford that we had been waiting for OVER 2 Months! We arrived 20 minutes early and were taken to an Exam room about 10 Am which was our appointment time. The representative said that Dr. Ashford would be in shortly and initially apologized for the delay. We sat there for OVER AND HOUR before Dr. Ashford Finally came in. We discussed Nancy's Incontinence issues and the many, many medications that she had tried as well as the multitude of Dr's she had seen. Dr. Ashford seemed to feel that she should try a higher dose of Botox. He indicated that he would TRY to prioritize the next appointment for that but seemed unprepared as he was not aware of when she had received the last Botox injections or what amount it was. I had given the Clinic access to Nancy's Mayo Clinic records as well as access to Olmsted Medical records which showed this information when Dr. Christopher did her injections but obviously Dr. Ashford had apparently not taken the time to access those records. Dr. Ashford was very knowledgeable about Nancy's condition but seemed "unprepared" to treat her as he had apparently not examined her records. Dr. Ashford NEVER alluded to our wait of over an hour or apologized for same. This extended appointment made us LATE for an 11:30 Appointment so i was not happy about that! I can appreciate how valuable Dr. Ashford's time is but he seemed unconcerned as to the importance of our time!

Appointment went well and Dr Ashford was very excellent however after three appointments with him he was very late for all of them and I was in the examination room up to an hour which is unacceptable. I hesitate to schedule an appointment with him during the workday for fear I will be late for my job….
