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.

Excellent doctor and experience!
Dr Sahin-Efe was exceptional! She was caring and cheerful and explained all things well. The biopsy she took was nearly painless. I can not say enough good things about this wonderful physician! I highly recommend her!

Had hair & eyebrow loss, chronic fatigue, sleep probs, brain fog, & weight gain (30+ lbs < 2 mos). She wrote down symptoms as "weight gain, unwanted body hair ,acne", refused to treat me. Wound up seeking 2nd opinion by someone who tested adrenals, discovered low cortisol levels & T3 thyroid conversion prob. Now on meds, HUGE diff in energy. Can function, get out of bed, brain fog gone. I was an athlete before getting sick, am back to running 10Ks. Also off sleep meds. She should be disbarred.

My first appointment with Dr. Sahin-Efe was this past week. I found her to be engaged and knowledgable. She answered all of my questions and listened to my answers to hers. I was provided a print out summary of our visit. This is very helpful, particularly with regards to medication and instructions. As an older patient with ongoing health issues that demand consistent maintenance, information sharing and personal attention mean a great deal to me. I highly recommend Dr. Sahin-Efe!
