Overall patient rating for John Robert Wright Jr.:

Pap Smear

Dr Wright took time to talk with me about my visit and my health.

Pap Smear

Dr Wright was very thorough, well educated and I felt confident in his recommendations

Gynecological Problem Visit

He is the best doctor I love him!

Pap Smear

Dr. Wright is extremely caring and competent. He is also very thorough. I don't mind waiting awhile to see him because I know he is giving every woman exceptional care. I am heard. I feel he listens. He asks about partners, home environment, mental and physical health. He is patient. He is a great doctor who goes out of his way to make me feel important, like my needs matter. He jots down facts about you and asks about them the next time he sees you. He believes in a woman's right to make her own decisions about her body. Best OB/GYN I've encountered in my 48 years.

IUD Insertion / Removal

This was my first time seeing Dr Wright after my initial visit 17 years ago. When I was pregnant, I had to meet all the doctors on staff and I chose a different one. After all this time, Dr Wright remembered me and he is very nice and friendly. Even when I was dizzy afterward, he and all the nurses took care of me until I could retain my balance and be able to walk out of there.
