Review for Dr. Siegal
Dr. Robinson was very helpful in explaining how migraines with aura happen and what could be causing them. She made me feel heard and took the time to explain everything thoroughly to me. I'd highly recommend her!

Review for Dr. Wright

My experience from my appointments is Dr siegal runs late and no one provides any explanation and your left to sit and wait, 1.5 hours past your appointment time. Dr siegal explains nothing and nor does her staff. Then Dr siegal and her staff exit the room quickly with no discharge or post op...
