Dr. Marilyn Robertson, MD

One of the best doctors I ever met. She is treating me for over 10 years now and her care really helps me to overcome my pains. Dr. Robertson always looks for new treatments and trying to find the most optimal solution for me.

Here's what I appreciated: - She believed my symptoms and had empathy for me. - She did not pretend that she knew exactly what was going on or the right way forward. Here's what I didn't: - Her front desk was by far the rudest encounter I've had with a provider. The woman would snap at me both on the phone and in-person, but when the doctor was nearby, she was sugary sweet. I didn't ask much of her besides scheduling an appointment and asking for copies of records... When I asked to schedule an appointment ASAP (my referring doctor requested that I be seen within the next week because of a possible CSF leak), she said that "everybody thinks they need to be seen ASAP, you're not special." Even if you think that, you should never treat a patient who is scared that way! Also, I was not a simple migraine case. - She told me and my mom some horror stories of other young people who never had their neurological symptoms resolved because there was no clear diagnosis.

Dr. Robertson takes great care of her patients. She is smart and thoughtful. She keeps current with new treatment options and explains them to me in terms that I can understand. Dr. Robertson has recently added infusion facilities in her office. The Infusion nurse, Yee, is highly skilled and upbeat. The windows open in the infusion room. It seems like a small thing, but the fresh air really helps me to feel better. Her office assistant is great. He is always willing to help when I call.

She is a great neurologist.
