Providers

Provider Reviews

Malik had no bedside manner and lacked confidence

Mar 28 2024

Review for Dr. Malik

She was prompt and knowledgeable with good people working in her staff. I consider her an excellent provider.

Mar 27 2024

Review for Dr. Siman

This doctor is useless as a cardiologist. Blocks a much needed hip replacement based on the opinions of a anesthesiologist, as opposed to his own, in terms of cardiac treatment.

Mar 27 2024

Review for Dr. Siegel

I was very upset because I take blood thinner and had a terrible nose bleed. The ER couldn't resolve the issue, so I called him immediately. I was worked in and he efficiently treated the problem. Very efficient.

Mar 22 2024

Review for Dr. Davidson

Dr Siman is the ideal doctor. She listens, she discusses, and treats what she can treat. She refers you to proper specialists when necessary. All this and she is kind, friendly and spends however much time is needed with each patient. Best GP I have ever had in my 80 years.
