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.

Good doctor but left suddenly.
She at least managed my pain and was pleasant. I saw her for five years and can’t complain. She was referred to me by my previous doctor whom I also saw for five years. My only complaint with Dr. Gelphman is that she retired without a word, no recommendation for a new doctor and it was a shock. Since then I have had no continuity of care.

Dr. Gelphman is the best! She spends significant time with her patients and is extremely through in her evaluation and examination. She includes time to ask about her patient’s quality of life and generally will ask if the patient has anything else to add which she may have not asked. Caring and compassionate.

I’ve seen Dr. Gelphman a few times, unfortunately. Every time I’ve left the office feeling unsupported and with no more answers than when I went in.

I do not recommend Dr. Gelphman. When calling her office with an issue, she either takes several days to respond or she does not respond at all. I rarely speak negatively of others unless absolutely justified...this is one such time. My husband and I are very displeased with her service and plan to get a different doctor.
