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.

Dr Birnbaum was great! Very professional as always!

Dr. Birnbaum spent a great deal of time going over my MRI with the doctor under his mentorship. He also listened intently with my descriptions of my issues. He discussed the possible causes of my episodes of brain disfunction, offered suggestions on how to treat the problem, told me to consult my neurologist if I had further episodes, and said my neurologist was the person who could refer me to a seizure specialist.
