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.

Excellent Bedside Manner
Dr. Bensman remembers details about me at all of my check-ups! She asks after my kids and family and puts me at ease to speak with her! She is very available to speak if you think of an issue after the visit as well!

5 stars for Dr Sara!!!
Dr Sara is extremely knowledgeable and her vast experience always put me at ease when it comes to her medical opinions. Her warm demeanor is what sets her apart from other doctors who just see most people as “patients”. I find myself lucky to have her as my pcp

Phenomenal PCP!
Dr. Bensman is truly the best. I’ve been seeing her for years and she always makes you feel like you are her only patient while I’m sure she has an exhausting schedule. She cares about you and takes the time to listen and give science based feedback for your health and wellbeing and lets you make your own decisions. Her bedside manner is remarkable and always a positive experience. Always a delight to visit her and know my health is in good hands!

Amazing primary
I have been seeing Sara for a little over three years now and I cannot recommend her enough. She listens to all of your concerns and goes over each one and never rushes you out of the room without addressing everything. She also was one of the most kind and genuine doctors I’ve ever experienced.

You can tell she cares
My appointment felt like I was catching up with an old friend who was asking me about my health and what I’ve been up to. It feels like she genuinely cares about my health and happiness. I got everything I needed for school, which was the main reason for my physical appointment. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a primary.

Doctor’s rarely have the time to get to know you as a person but not Dr. Bensman. She gives you undivided attention with such genuine concern that you feel like you are talking to your best friend. My family is so lucky to have found her.
