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.

unsatisfactory care of perimenopause
I am leaving this practice after over 15 years of mostly unsatisfactory care. Long wait times described here are real, as is a real rush to finish a visit - I felt like she flew in and out of the examining room. Some of the staff/nurses have abrupt and unfriendly demeanors with patients. But I am leaving because the office does not seem to be competent nor caring regarding menopausal care. I was treated like an addict looking for a fix when I inquired about HRT, and then was told I would 'probably' have a stroke or a blood clot if I 'insisted' on getting an estrogen patch. She does not appear to be informed about the literature on the treatment of menopause.

The average wait time (with an appointment) is 1.5 hours and then you feel rushed once she meets with you. You can hear everything being said in the next room. Dr. Burack also didn't seem to be familiar with my history. I'm currently seeking a new provider.

The doctor and office staff were friendly, I went in for my yearly exam only. I arrived 15 minutes prior to my morning appointment, and ended up meeting the doctor about 45 minutes after my appointment time.

Abrupt and appears to be in a rush, like my case doesn't matter. Never knew who I was or anything about me. Come on just read the chart I shouldn't have to repeat myself every visit. Verifying is one thing but acting as if this is all news to her was so frustrating when I had given records and gone over everything multiple times with both doctors.
