Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My introductory meeting with Dr. Liberman
From our first meeting with Dr. Liberman when she came to the waiting room to greet us, my wife and I were both taken with her warmth and friendliness. After ensuring our comfort in the consultation room we began our discussion as to what brought me to her office. She spoke clearly and directly and encouraged any questions we might have regarding what happened to me and how it might impact on my current levels of functioning. In addition she used my brain scans to enhance her explanations. Dr. Liberman then moved on to explain her role in coordinating the follow-up treatments and services she would arrange for addressing each of my medical needs. In addition she indicated that she would consult with both my neurosurgeon Dr. Knopman and my neurologist Dr. Safdieh regarding her follow up plans for me. Needless to say my wife and I left this consultation with the highest regard for Dr. Liberman. We will long remain indebted to her for her professionalism and kindness.

Extremely thorough and capable.
Telehealth
Dr. Liberman is an outstanding Nuerologist and care giver. My diagnosis was not cut and dry. She went the hard way of tests and elimination to figure an elusive diagnosis. In a medical world of doctors that pass the buck and check a box, Dr Liberman stands out. She is engaged in her work and in turn her patients. I would highly recommended Dr Liberman.
