Services
Obstetrics
Our obstetric services provide comprehensive care for low-risk and high-risk pregnancies, including routine prenatal visits, ultrasound imaging, and labor and delivery support. We specialize in managing gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and multiple pregnancies while prioritizing patient education and birth plan customization. With hospital privileges at Providence/Sacred Heart Medical Center, we ensure seamless continuity of care from pregnancy through postpartum recovery.
Gynecology
We offer full-spectrum gynecologic care including annual exams, Pap smear screening, and treatment for menstrual disorders, endometriosis, and pelvic floor conditions. Our services extend to contraceptive counseling, hormone replacement therapy, and management of menopausal symptoms, combining preventive care with advanced diagnostic and treatment options tailored to each patient's needs.
Ultrasounds
Our ultrasound services include 2D, 3D, and 4D imaging for fetal development monitoring, gender determination, and early pregnancy assessment. We provide elective 'Hello Baby' appointments with digital images and video clips, using state-of-the-art equipment operated by experienced technicians to ensure clear visualization of fetal anatomy and maternal health indicators.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
We specialize in minimally invasive surgical techniques including laparoscopy, hysteroscopy, and robotic-assisted surgery for conditions like fibroids, endometriosis, and pelvic organ prolapse. These approaches reduce recovery time, minimize scarring, and maintain reproductive health while addressing complex gynecologic issues through both outpatient and inpatient settings.
High-Risk Pregnancy
Our practice manages high-risk pregnancies involving maternal medical conditions, fetal abnormalities, or previous pregnancy complications. We collaborate with perinatologists and neonatologists while providing close monitoring through specialized testing, Doppler ultrasounds, and individualized care plans to optimize outcomes for both mother and baby.

Report
Front desk staff was extremely unprofessional and rude. Refused to bill my insurance correctly after confirming they accepted my insurance before I made the appointment. Talked down to me when I asked questions about billing. Lied about the insurance process on multiple occasions, and said they were not willing to work with my insurance through either avenue offered. Got treated so poorly that I was brought to tears, and then was told, Well do it your way today so that you dont get worked up (my way being billing my insurance correctly.) The nurse practitioner was friendly and professional

After waiting for 2 hours in the waiting room past my appointment time I was roomed, 30 mins later Dr. Grant came in and did my pap I had other concerns and had waited for 6 months for this appointment. She spent 5 minutes with me didnt really address any concerns or even bother to look at my chart, saying I probably have PCOS (when last year I was told I didnt have pcos). Last year she was great and very thorough this year I was so upset I came out of there totally unsatisfied and in tears.

Unkind. Let them know I had a new insurance and they claimed that they accepted it. However, when it came time for my appointment they would not see me because they had gotten confused about the type of insurance it was. I have been in pain for 3 weeks and all they could offer me was to go to urgent care or the emergency room so I wouldn't have to pay out of pocket. I signed a form stating that if insurance wouldn't cover that I would pay and they still would not see me. I will not be returning here.

Dr Reuter delivered my first daughter by c section and it was such an incredible experience even though it wasnt traditional labor. I was really afraid of the spinal anesthetic and he literally held me as it was being put in, even though he was busy getting ready for the surgery. He made the entire day light hearted and fun, but as soon as it was go time he was fully focused on my daughter and making sure she got here safely. I cant say enough wonderful things about all of the doctors at this practice.

Report
No sense of urgency - reviewed ER tests and waited a week to determine needed to refer my mom to oncologist. Then sent referral to wrong place (which I had to sort out for my mom). I absolutely would not recommend Dr. Tyler nor his office if dealing with anything urgent and hoping to get any sort of decent communication.

Dr. Tyler has been the most compassionate doctor I have ever been fortunate enough to receive care from. I have had amazing care from everyone from the front office staff, to the nurses, medical assistants, ultrasound techs and the doctors. I am so thankful for everything the doctor and staff have done for me, and look forward to future care. I will continue to tell everyone about my positive experience and recommend Dr. Tyler and his staff to all of my friends and family.
