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.

Last visit I had with her, she examined me and sent me for lab work. Begged her for antibiotics as I was feeling poorly. She refused to until I got more lab work which I did but still no antibiotics. A couple of days later, I was taken to hospital with septic shock. Spent 3 weeks in ICU and three months in a rehab facility. Don’t go to her.

Dr. Lipton is a good doctor if you can get through to her. Her receptionist is horrible. He needs to be reported to the Better Business Bureau and replaced. He is totally unprofessional and hung up on me during COVID lockdown just to get a prescription refill from a medication prescribed by the Dr. herself.

I called Dr. Lipton to get a refill for my asthma inhaler. The MAN receptionist was extremely rude, with an attitude and unhelpful. Told me she was unavailable when I know she had spoken to my pharmacist just an hour before. The receptionist told me that if it was an emergency that I should go to the ER. I said I just needed a refill on my inhaler. He repeated the same thing 3 times then when I asked him to leave her a message he hung up on me. He should be evaluated and fired!

I would not recommend this doctor. My visit was a complete waste of time. I did not receive any kind of explanation or results from the examination. The only thing I received after my visit to this doctor was a bill (and it took them more than a year to send).
