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.

Dr. Muriel Nathan is fabulous. Excellent communicator. She has been treating me for years for my thyroid problems which includes graves disease. She spends time answering my questions without feeling rushed. Her follow up notes are great! Highly recommend her.

Dr Nathan is exceptional. I started seeing her for my hypothyroid issues a few years ago and wouldn't go to anyone else. Her ability to explain meds, biology, interactions, etc is super helpful. I would recommend her highly!

Muriel is THE best, most knowledgable endocrinologist out there! I have seen her for 15 years. I have no thyroid at all, and she has figured out ANY issues I've had over the years, better than all the primary care doctors I have ever seen. I rate her as one of the best in the country! Yes you have to wait a little in the office, but so what? She is in high demand, and is often doing emergent calls at the hospital where my husband works. Absolute the best in her field.

I have been seeing Doctor Nathan for many years. She has always been a pleasure. She is very knowledgeable and always understands the difficulty of managing blood sugar. I have Type I and work hard at control, but I don't always succeed. I appreciate Doctor Nathan not scolding me, but offering helpful suggestions. My only issue is that she is VERY busy. It is not easy to get an appointment.

She was confrontational and nutty from start to finish after I waited an hour for her to finally make her entrance. A doctor needs to listen to patient symptoms, rather than rail against other doctors while inflating her ego. The nurse even warned me that she is an angry, over-wrought person and to brace myself. When I responded with curiosity the nurse clammed up. I feel bad for the staff, but she was right, it was awful. And her nutty rants were loaded with outdated information and weird lies.

I have been seeing Dr Muriel Nathan for going on 20 yrs. She has done so much for me, where do I begin. She turned my BS around in 1 day. She listens to my problems and always try's to get me a solution. My A1Cs went from a 13 down to around 7. She is SO knowledgeable & helpful. I highly recommend her!

Dr. Nathan is the expert in thyroid issues; for that reason alone, I recommend seeing her. That said, I waited three months between my GP finding out that I likely had Graves Disease and seeing Dr. Nathan. During that time I couldn't work, wasn't sleeping and lost 20 lbs. Once I finally got in, the visit was short and curt and I didn't feel that I was really taken care of. My next appointment was scheduled for 6 mo. She also gave me a much too high dose of medication.

Dr. Nathan was professional, courteous, helpful, kind and so very helpful. I would highly recommend her. She explained things in an a practical easy to understand language and went out of her way. But more than anything she validated how I had been feeling and the symptoms of hypothyroidism that I had been having. I could not get my own endocrinologist that treats my type I diabetes to listen. I wanted to cry & hug her, but I didn't:)
