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.

Caring, kind and brilliant
Having a rare neurological disorder, most doctors dismiss my issues because they don’t know about it. Since day one, Dr. Chalfin has listened and done everything she can to help find solutions. It’s obvious how much she truly cares about her patients.

Initial visit with Dr. Chalfin was very productive
Dr. Chalfin reviewed my medical history carefully and went through all papers I brought to our initial office visit. She performed a complete neurological exam and was right on target with the prognosis and made several suggestions for care and treatment. Also, followed up with other more specific ideas and was very responsive. A very caring professional and a pleasure to work with. My wife and I were very impressed with her as a doctor and as a person.

Great caring doctor.
Dr. Chalfin is a compassionate, caring doctor. She listens carefully and takes the time needed to help. There are no rushed exams. When you are with Dr. Chalfin you get the care you deserve. No multi exam rooms waiting for the doctor. One on one care. She has the type of practice we want all our doctors to have.

Best Doctor
Dr Chalfin is amazing! She is a doctor who takes the time to really understand what is wrong. I’ve been to an ENT, an ophthalmologist, my primary care doctor and a gastroenterologist and Dr Chalfin is the one doctor who has started to put my medical issues into perspective. She is a medical detective and I feel so lucky and grateful that I found her. I recommend Dr Chalfin with no reservations.

My first appointment with Dr. Chalfin was a one hour Telehealth video meeting. Within minutes, I felt that an excellent rapport was being built. She is friendly, easy to talk with and thorough in her questioning to understand the depth and extent of my neurological symptoms. When I initially made my virtual appointment, based upon previous experiences with other doctors, I couldn't imagine that we would use the entire hour or how in depth Dr. Chalfin's "virtual" testing and examination could be. She demonstrated obvious interest and concern for ascertaining both the source of my symptoms and treatment options. I had a follow up, in person office appointment with Dr. Chalfin approximately five weeks after my initial video meeting that was equally thorough and a totally positive experience. Based upon my experiences, Dr. Chalfin has my 5 star rating!

I had an outstanding visit with Dr. Chalfin. Although the appointment was scheduled for 30 minutes, Dr. Chalfin spent almost an hour with me asking probing questions and finding solutions that other health care providers had failed to do. She prescribed a medicine that already seems to be beneficial to my wellness. It was a very satisfying visit and I am very happy that I saw Doctor Chalfin.
