I am so grateful for Dr. Ashford. I’ve struggled with unconventional gynecology issues over the past 8 years and Dr. Ashford has helped me numerous times overcome those challenges. He takes a holistic approach and thinks outside the box to help improve the quality of life for his patients. I highly recommend him.
Dr Ashford is patient and explains things in a way that is easy to understand. He put me at ease and I had no concerns before going into surgery. His staff is friendly and attentive. I am going back for another procedure and look forward to working with them again. I highly recommend this group.

I Trust Him!
Writing this because I owe it to Dr. Ashford. This isn't some marketing material review. I am truly appt with my results! I had a trim labiaplasty and CHR, and Dr. Ashford cleaned my perineal area up at his best judgement during my procedure. I am almost fully healed within 5 weeks and am already very happy with the results. Dr. Ashford ales time to really hear out all of his patients. Most days he will be running behind to your appointment -- but that is because he will give
I was very pleased with my experience with Dr. Ashford and his staff. I came in with a lot of concerns and questions and Dr. Ashford thoroughly went over all of my options. one of the many things I had done was a pelvic prolapse surgery which recovered quickly and easily. I also had the Thermiva laser treatment but was a bit skeptical at first if it was really going to help or make a difference. It was clear to me after the second procedure that it was making a huge difference
I’m 31 with 3 kids. All were delivered via c-section but pregnancy affects your vagina, not just the birth. I’m petite and carried very low too. I started pelvic floor therapy last summer after an initial consultation for a vaginoplasty/labiaplasty. I was frustrated with feeling loose during sex and having the urge to pee all the time. I also hate the look of my vagina and my long labia causes discomfort. I was having pain with sex for many years, and figured that was from my
Dr. Ashford is an exceptional doctor with an excellent bedside manner. As a female looking for vaginal rejuvenation after three pregnancies, the thought of being examined by any doctor made me anxious. However, Dr. Ashford has such a calm & caring bedside manner that he quickly put my worries at ease, and I was able to open up with all my concerns with his genuine interest in my overall health. I first learned about Dr. Ashford when I researched the top Minnesota surgeons

Bad Experience
I had a terrible experience with Dr. Ashford. I have had complications since the surgery and I’m worse than before the surgery. I called three days after surgery and was told by his staff to go to my local emergency room. He hasn’t taken any responsibility for any of the complications.

I'd give zero stars if I could. I went to Dr. Ashford for a labia majora and labia minora plasty, to reduce both. He was confident he could give me the results I wanted. The surgery seemed to go okay but as I began to heal, I was immediately not happy with results. He reduced the labia minora but the labia majora (outer labia) looked exactly the same. At the follow up, I told him I wasn't happy with the results and he told me that he only did a partial majora plasty instead of

Horrible
Total loss of feeling. Unfortunately I am one of the people that serious nerve damage from this surgery also the surgery wasnt done properly and Have had to see other doctors that have said he should have never performed this surgery on me so soon after having a baby and while breastfeeding which he knew. I can no longer feel what I used to and then dismissed by the doctor. There was no tightness either . This has seriously ruined the one thing enjoyable in my life and Im out

I rarely write reviews, if ever, but this had to be said. I have been searching for an OBGYN for the past 10 years. I knew something in my body was "off" yet I could not find a doctor that could help me. I stumbled upon Dr. Ashford by fate and it has been the best thing that has happened to me. Dr. Ashford is thourough, he listens to what you are experiencing. He does not just look at one part of you, he looks at your body in its entirety; from my experience that is a rare thing
