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.

A superb Physician
The very best. Dr Litvak is the epitome of what a physician should be. She is kind and caring yet never rushes you. I truly feel that she is the main reason I am doing so well with MBC. I have been to Sloan where I became a number. I received adequate care but coming back to Dr. Litvak made a huge difference in my treatment and results. I can not Thank her enough!

The Absolute Best!
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Litvak. From day one of a very scary time in my life, Dr. Litvak made me feel reassured, comfortable with my treatment plan, and like a human being, not a number. She is not only brilliant, but patient, caring, and compassionate.

When you have a diagnosis of cancer, you want an oncologist that is not only warm and compassionate, but also trustworthy and knowledgeable in her field. Dr. Litvak fits that bill. I see Dr. Litvak for yearly follow-up visits. I never feel rushed and she answers all my questions to my utmost satisfaction, according to the latest research. If I have a concern she explains things so clearly that I feel comfortable and encouraged and stronger when the visit is over. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Litvak has a rare and beautiful ability to pair top-level medical expertise with sincere personal compassion. I'm beyond grateful that my mother is in her care. When another relative was diagnosed last year, I called her office in a panic to ask for help. Dr. Litvak saw us the very next day after normal business hours. She came to rescue again more recently when my father became ill, leading his pain management while we sought out a specialist. She represents the best humanity has to offer.

Dr. Litvak is an amazing doctor. She's kind, caring and very knowledgeable in her field. She makes you feel like everything is going to be OK . I was a patient of Dr Michaelson's first and he retired . He gave me Dr Litvak, I could not be in better hands . I thank God every day for a doctor like her.

Dr. Litvak is the sweetest, kindest, most patient, most comprehensive, most understanding, most supportive, most informed doctor one could wish for.  She never makes one feel there is any time limit in the appointment, she knows your medical history before she comes in, she asks questions---and listens, she is resourceful wth answers and information, and is clear with instructions and decisions. I can't imagne that anyone would not be thrilled with Dr. Litvak. (Text limit here cut the rest).

One of the most compassionate physicians I have ever met. She did an excellent job explaining my treatment plan and I felt 100% confident in her recommendations. Her office always gets back to me and I am thankful for her care.

Dr. Litvak is one of the kindest, most sincere physicians I have ever met. She explains things clearly and treats me as a person. Her team is there whenever I have a question and always get back to me in a very timely manner. I would not receive chemotherapy anywhere else. She did have to reschedule my appointment once but this was because she was on maternity leave. During this time, she had great coverage and I always felt safe and well taken care of. I am incredibly thankful for her care.

Kept cancelling my appointments which made me feel very unimportant. I realize I am only one of many patients to her and I understand things come up and appointments sometimes need to be changed, but three times? That's a bit much.
