Review for Dr. Murea
This MD is caring and empathetic. After Diagnosing me with Crohns-Colitis, a year later he somehow forgot? Medical records were also “lost” (common in Northern Medical Group). Doctor- good. Medical Group- bad.

Review for Dr. Orli
Dr. Balogh blamed my symptoms on anxiety and unhealthy eating when in reality it’s congenital and genetic. An ECHO from 2015&2021 clearly states that something is up- but the final report signed by the MD says otherwise.

Review for Dr. Balogh
I have been misdiagnosed, given incorrect medication, placed in IVC for an epileptic seizure, sent into anaphylaxis and now am in EMDR directly due to Peter S Vrooman.

Review for Dr. Vrooman Jr
Apparently this cardiologist wants to be a dietician. He had no cares of my very abnormal low HR, no cares of my family history, and felt no need to look further into the issue….he only offered dieting advice and no real solution or plan of care. He encouraged me to come back….not for heart related...

Horrendous, terrible, horrible, inhumane human being, I'm not sure she's even a human. Do not go to her, she's an awful person and an even more terrible physician. You're gambling with your life if you choose her as your physician.
