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 doctor! Highly recommend.
Very personalized service. Always helpful; especially helped filling out forms for a Patient Assistance Program to continue to get the drug I need through the manufacturer with no copay. Focused on preventative medicine and weight loss. Works well with me discussing options and listens well. Always a pleasure to work with and coordinates well with other numerous specialists that I also have treating me.

Terrible care did not even feel like a patient...
Went to the office with symptoms and was seen by a nurse. A few days latter I was in the hospital. Never heard from the doctor either in the hospital or when I sent her a message.

I just saw Dr Elperin for the first time and I was very impressed. She spent a lot of time with me, answering all of my questions. She went through my health records and we reviewed everything. She was caring and nice and I am very pleased that I chose to see her.

Dr. Elperin was a great PCP. She always listened to my questions and would think through her answers remembering issues I have had in the past. She was straight forward with answers and never hesitated to respond back to me quickly. She was thoughtful and always made me feel welcome. She was a professional. She was the type of doctor you would have for life (Even a state away) , but I moved 1600 miles away, and can’t make it work. She works with patients of all types from healthy, to people with long term health issues, and those with depression. Ask her any question, and she will find the answer. I really believer her being my doctor helped get my mind straight, and improve my mindset. Thanks!

Dr Elperin was thorough and did not rush my appointment time. I found this to be so comforting from a doctor to allow me to ask as many questions and not rush me. She offered thoughtful suggestions. She has a wonderful bedside manner.

Unprofessional doctor's staff and wait time. Dr. Elperin isnt good in returning a call or message in your time of need. I dont feel her and her staff listen and provide quality support.

She was very detailed oriented and never lost sight of the big picture. She was curtious and was able to correctly and quickly diagnose my symptoms and put me on the path to recovery. I appreciate her honest and straightforward talk.

I saw Dr. Elperin once when my MD was out of town. She was rude, arrogant and disrespectful. I went to the doctor for one issue. She behaved as if she were taking my case over from my doctor; she reviewed my chart and made negative comments about the treatment I was receiving, ordered tests that were not yet due, and made referrals that had already been completed- all this without a word of explanation. She cut off my attempts at discussion. As I left, she offered to be my MD.

Dr. Elperin spent one entire hour with me at my first appointment. She really wanted to get to know me as a patient and was very thorough in her questions. She strongly encouraged me to make some changes to my diet which have helped me lose weight and lower my blood pressure.
