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.

And yet another review of validity. He dismissed all my concerns without ordering one diagnostic test. He did, however, refer me to a mental health therapist. Kofman was rude, cruel and disrespectful. As I was walking out on him, he chose to yell out in the hallway how I was not welcome back to the Prohealth Care Neuroscience Center. Not ONE of the staff members within earshot had intervened. Starting over with a primary Doc who did referrals and diagnostic tests, I was undeniably diagnosed with a condition that qualifies for disability. I received a referral to be under the care of a neurologist. I have chosen the Froedert medical system.

Dr Kofman saw me for an ongoing performance anxiety issue that caused occasional tremors. Very professional, friendly, and would recommend him.

I have been seeing Dr Kofman for a while now and he has greatly helped me with my nerve issues in my feet. His staff is always professional and great to work with. I highly recommend him to anyone that needs to see a neurologist. Also they have a great new office.

I would like to provide the other review with validity by stating that I, too, was dismissed by Dr. Kofman due to my anxiety. Despite the fact that I was (and am) suffering from incapacitating pain and tingling in my extremities, I was dismissed after the results of my non-contrast cervical MRI came back normal. Let me not negate the fact that Dr Kofman, himself, stated that my MRI results did not correlate with my symptoms I was having. He then suggested I go see a therapist.

Dr. Kofman decided nothing was wrong before seeing me, I assume because I have anxiety (intermittent via brain issue). The abnormalities on my MRI were waved off, despite the serious symptoms I listed. He told me to "not bother" with followup MRI ordered by my neurosurgeon. Performed speedy tests like touching toes, then concluded it was all psychological. Follow-up MRI/spinal tap (not with him) revealed distinct cause of my long suffering. Thank God I knew he was horribly inept.
