Review for Dr. Sorokin
I was very impressed after meeting Dr Leary. She was understanding and listened to what I had to say. It had been a long time since I had a primary care, and she insured I received all the testing I needed plus sent authorizations for needed appointments not part of UMASS.

Review for Dr. Arous
If you want a doctor who aims to do the bare minimum required of her both physically and ethically, whose only passion for the craft seems to be in how fast she can conduct an appointment and shoo you out of the office, and whose 3 favorite words are 'ask someone else'... she's your gal.
