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.

My review
Elaine is thorough in her examination and takes the time to listens to your concerns. Her treatment of illnesses are based on the openness and honesty of the patient.

My mother has been a patient of Dr. Brenner’s for 25 years. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2000 and we thought she had been in remission since. Over the last few years, she has been experiencing terrible shoulder pain which Dr. Brenner dismissed as arthritis. Turns out, it’s metastatic breast cancer. Dr. Brenner never ordered any tests or scans for a reoccurrence and just sent her for physical therapy and x-rays. Now we’re in a dire situation over her lack of knowledge of symptoms. Avoid.

Dr. Brenner is a disgrace to her profession. The AMA holds doctors to certain behavior standards. i.e. "A physician shall be dedicated to providing competent care with compassion, and respect for human dignity and rights." Elaine Brenner FAILS on ALL of these qualities and expectations. Ms. Brenner gave a terminal diagnosis to my father over the phone, then carelessly left him unanswered for over 1 month. My father battled this diagnosis for 9 months with NO support and NO CONTACT from Ms. Brenner. He lost the fight early this month. Ms. Brenner has yet to reach out to our family. There is NO EXCUSE for someone who is in the business of caring for human life to behave in this manner.

I love Dr. Brenner, however never can speak to her outside of an appointment. Always having to have MA relay questions and sometimes it is above their scope of practice.
