Steven Harter

By far the most compassionate, personable, patient, and professional doctor I have ever met. He really is a gem. I recently delivered and had a water birth with my first child. He came in from out of town to be present for the delivery. He safely quickly and effectively delivered my girl even with shoulder dystocia and effectively turned her. Words can not describe just how grateful I am of this man. Thankyou so much for everything

I went to see dr harter for my second baby. Unfortunately I allowed the long wait times to deter me from using him for my first, definitely my loss!
I had a c section with my first and I know had I chosen Dr Harter, I would’ve been able to avoid that surgery. I also had a horrible time healing and was adamant that I chose a Dr with a great c section healing reputation. I was also intrigued by the possibility of a VBAC, which he is a big advocate of.
After having a terrible, scary delivery with my son, I was nervous about being pregnant again. After meeting Dr Harter I was excited and not as nervous. He said I was a great candidate for a VBAC. I also expressed wanting a doula and he helped me find Amy H. as my doula.(LOVED HER!)
Being in the medical field, I hear the name Dr Harter A LOT! And I have never once heard anything at all negative about him, ever. He has a great bedside manner and he carries himself in a way that tells me this man was born to bring babies into this world. It is very hard to work in the medical field and always be happy and excited and not get burned out, but somehow he seems to do it.
Although the wait times CAN be longer than some (I only have one OB to compare it to) he is worth the wait. In fact, I always set myself up for a 3 hour wait and anything less made me happy. Just bring a book and leave your kid with dad. It was actually something I looked forward to bc it was my «me time» to sit and read. And despite the wait times, I never felt rushed by him.
Thanks to Dr Harter and my amazing doula, I was able to have the birth I wanted as well as a successful VBAC.
Please do not allow wait times to discourage you from having the best OB in the valley. He is the best.
I would also like to note that it is RARE that you have an amazing Dr with amazing staff, not sure why, but his staff is all very kind and sweet. His two MAs are friendly and quick to get whatever paperwork you may need done.

The best OB there could possibly be. He guided me through a successful vbac and was phenomenal all the way through from day 1 to my post pardon follow up. I loved his spirit and disposition and just overall energy. There are no words for how grateful I am. A+++

Best ob in the Las Vegas valley! I’m a doula and work with him regularly. I’ve also had a baby with him. He TEULY cares about his clients and their outcomes. He respects mothers and their options, he does waterbirths, and he’s all around an amazing provider and man.

First of all, Dr. Harter is awesome! He delivered both of my children through c-​section. The first one was breeched. He gave me an option to try vbac on the second but I decided to schedule a c-​section for personal reasons. He is very understanding and is super busy because he’s good at what he does.
During my first pregnancy I originally had a different doctor until I was 36 weeks is when I went to Dr. Harter after my husband found him online. My Dr. threatened me to take me to court and involve social services if I did not want to vaccinate my baby. Think about the stress this lady caused me while I was pregnant. I believe it’s our choice and right to choose what is best our children.
During my first appointment with Dr. Harter at 36 weeks he did a sonogram and noticed my fluids were very low and that I had to have the baby the same day. He called the hospital and asked them to have the papers ready because it was important to us to decline the vaccines.
I have 2 healthy beautiful children. Thank you Dr. Harter! We really appreciate everything you did for us.

I just delivered yesterday with Dr Harter and he did an amazing job. Almost 2 years I had a c section for failure to progress in labor. Dr Harter let me VBAC and it was successful. He was a very patient and understanding and never rushed the process. The staff at centinnal hills hospital was also excellent! The nurses did everything they could to get me a safe successful VBAC. I am so happy and thankful for Dr Harter and his team.

It’s simply rare to find a doctor like Dr. Harter. He’s caring, friendly and very professional. He takes the time to find out about my family medical history and my physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. I never felt rushed, being judged or nervous in my exam room. I’ve worked with many physicians with my late husband’s business, no one compares to Dr. Harter!!! Many physicians in our valley can learn from him. I highly recommend Dr. Harter. I feel very blessed to have him as my gynecologist. Dr. Harter, thank you for your kindness.

Dr Harter is THE BEST! He delivered my first child 4 weeks ago, and I couldn’t be more thankful! I really appreciate his dedication and love for his work! Prenatal visits were great, he is really knowledgeable, patient, and caring. His team was awesome as well! I highly recommend Dr Harter!

Dr. Harter delivered my second son via VBAC on Christmas Day 2014. He is an awesome OB who is supportive of women and their choices! The wait times can be a long, but completely worth it to me. My first birth was an unplanned c-​section. My son was turned «sunny side up» and after two hours of pushing, my OB at that time recommended a c-​section. With my second son, Dr. Harter checked his position and found he was also sunny side up. I immediately had a moment of panic, but Dr. Harter was able to get him flipped around and facing the right way. Why my first OB never tried that, I don’t know! Dr. Harter is truly an awesome doctor!

Dr Harter delivered both of my children and has been my doctor for 10 years now. He is very warm, friendly and has a relaxed /​soothing way of talking to you. He has helped me through some very hard times (a lost pregnancy and later and major depression) He has never rushed me through an appointment, even though I know that he has a bunch of patients waiting for him. When he is in the room with you, you feel that all of his attention and focus is on you. Which to me is worth the wait.
There usually is a wait to get in to see him and sometimes he does need to leave to deliver a baby… which makes the wait longer. But I figure he had to leave his patients for me when he delivered my babies in the middle of the day. (Especially my 2^nd baby which had complications during the delivery.) So to me it’s a «give and take». I just know to bring a book or something to my appointments because I never know if an emergency is going to come up.

Dr. Harter delivered my son 6 months ago at centennial hills hospital. I planned on having a vbac after experiencing a csection 10 years earlier while delivering my daughter in oregon. I had seen some negative reviews about his staff but he must have hired new staff because they were very nice to me every appt I ever had. I truly adore is nurses. I ended up with an emergency csection and was devastated about it. Dr. Harter was kind, calm, efficient. I trusted his judgement and skill. He came to check on me after. He is a classy dr. He saved my son. Blessed to have known him. Thank you dr. Harter! I know have a healthy 6 month old son!

Dr. Harter was everything I was looking for. I wanted to have a natural, unmedicated birth, but was nervous to do a home birth and my insurance wouldn’t accept a midwife. So, I found Dr. Harter. He followed our birth plan and was very easy going. He takes the time to answer your questions. I waited long past my appointment time many days, but I understood that was the price for one of the best doctors in Vegas!

Dr. Harter is an absolutely amazing and caring doctor. He has been my OB since my daughter was born in 2009. I had an emergency c-​section due to severe preeclampsia, after planning a VBAC. I was devastated by the turn of events, but Dr. Harter held my hand and told me he was very sorry but I was too sick to wait any longer, but I could definitely have a VBAC someday. Well, I decided to take him up on it. I had an amazing unmedicated VBA2C at Centennial Hills Hospital on 4÷1÷2014. I could not have asked for a better or more supportive OB. *Note*Due to his popularity, it can be hard to get in to see him, and wait times can be long because he’s delivering babies… a lot! Those are small inconveniences to me, to get a good doctor! :)
