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.

I would warn anyone needing treatment for a skin condition to steer clear of this doctor. I needed treatment for facial keratoses & was left with divots (scars) on both cheeks. His practice sent me a letter to inform me that he would not treat me in the future after I complained! I should’ve sent a thank you card. I would give no stars if possible.

Poor care at best and will not be going back.
Any "doctor" that cannot write an order for a blood test properly should not be practicing medicine in any form, for humans or animals.

Dr. Korenstein has been my primary care physician for six years and, since I am a senior citizen, has treated me for many conditions, including diabetes, a heart condition, pneumonia, and cortisone injections in arthritic joints. I have found him to be a good listener, an equally adept explainer, an excellent diagnostician and a cordial medical practitioner.

My experience with Dr. Korenstein has been positive. He is as competent as any other health care professional under whom I have treated. I find him to be cordial. He responds thoughtfully to my questions. He does get down to business quickly, without a lot of chit-chat, but from my perspective, that is appreciated.

He does not listen. He spends no time asking questions. My appointments are less than 5 minutes. He is condescending and incompetent.

You can easily learn more about your condition from the internet than you can from Dr Korenstein. Seeing him was frustrating and demeaning. Frankly I'm embarrassed for Eureka Family Practice. It was insulting really. I will never see this Doctor again.

This Dr. Should go back to his first career in environmental science. He has no people skills whatsoever and his demeanor is degrading and off-putting. I would never see him again if there were any better docs taking new patients.
