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.

Avoid This 'Doctor'
Terrible experience. She left for a meeting when my appointment was scheduled, and I had to wait for over an hour for her to return. Later, I woke up screaming during my colonoscopy, and the doctor blamed it on me.

AVOID THIS PLACE!
This doctor NEVER saw us, her secretary shoveled the preparation paperwork on our face and told us to buy the prep meds, and that's all. We were NEVER told about possible side effects or medication interaction, and this doctor NEVER took time to see us before the colonoscopy. My husband had severe side effects which cause us to call his doctor in the middle of the night, almost went to ER, and had to cancel the colonoscopy. We were treated with total disregard and disrespect, and DO NOT RECOMMEND i the place or the invisible doctor to anyone!

I have been a patient of Dr. Taitelbaum for several years. She has always been amazing- very knowledgeable, trusting, and professional. I am very surprised by other reviews of poor bedside manner, because my experiences have always been very positive! I would recommend her to my friends and family!!

I left my first appointment with Dr. Taitelbaum in tears. Her bedside manner was awful. Came in said she looked at my history, wanted to know why I was there, asked when I wanted to schedule another colonoscopy and it was my decision and that she wasn't God and couldn't make that decision. Just felt very rushed like my situation wasn't important. The check out receptionist was snarky with me, then began arguing with someone on phone. Walked out..."did this just happen?"

My first visit with her was OK. I then had emergency abdominal surgery, weeks of severe nausea, and went to see her again. TOTAL waste of time. She was so spaced out that it was frightening...kept saying "Just why are you here to see me?", despite explaining several times. Secretary asked when I wanted another appointment. I said I'd call (knowing I'd never return), and she said "If you don't schedule NOW, I'll have to PUT IT ON YOUR RECORD!" Seriously?!? So I had to book - but cancelled later.

I have recommened Dr Taitelbaum to many people. My Mother and son have both seen her and liked her. I love her. She knows who I am and my family when we see her out of office. She has been on top of my symptoms and has me under control. I am very thankful to have her in my corner.
