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. Birnbaum has been my physician for a great many years. I am healthy today and it is thanks to her. She always can tell if things are fine or advise when necessary for me to see a surgeon. When a top breast surgeon advised an MRI for 1 breast, she called him and asked whether it would be advisable to do both as she was suspicious though mammogram on other side did not show anything. He wrote the prescription and she was right. My surgeries now go back 11 years and I am doing fine.

This is my second Routine Mammogram and Breast Sonogram visit with Dr Birnbaum. She is warm, thorough and very professional. You get your results right away and the staff is very caring. They even give you warm blankets while you wait in your pretty flowered top. I would not go anywhere else for my imaging tests.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Birnbaum. She is so kind and so nice. I ended up with 2 breast biopsies and she could not have been nicer.

Dr. Birnbaum is a wonderful physician. I have been seeing her for MANY YEARS and have found her to be consistently thorough, warm, gentle and caring. I cannot imagine what could possibility have inspired the negative review that was posted here.

Nasty cold hearted dr. She has no bedside manners. If you are at all nervous she is NOT the Dr to chose.
