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.

Condescending attitude
The doctor is pretty knowledgeable but talks in a very condescending way especially when you ask her questions. Her bedside manner is also not great at all ; doesn’t make you feel welcomed at the appointment causing a lack of trust in care

We just love her. She is very available to her patients. She comes up to the hospital even when she isn't on call. She has the best bedside manner. She has sat with us for as long as we needed her to. Love her & blessed to be her patient.

I left my consultation feeling uncomfortable and with more questions than I came in with. The Dr. came in, didn't even look at my daughter and immediately said that my daughter needed to have a procedure done because she has reflux. Dr. Koyfman then walks out and returns with a brand new diagnosis, this time it is not reflux, but is going to send my 3 month old home with Zantac as a precaution. She does not have any bedside manner and made me feel uncomfortable.
