Dr. Lory Baraz, MD

Always kind and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this endocrinologist.

Dr Lori has been my endocrinologist for more than 10 years. She's extremely knowledgeable has excellent communication skills explains things clearly and has taken care of my thyroid condition giving me a very healthy life. I believe her ratings should be a lot higher than it is.

Dr. Baraz takes the time necessary in order for me to leave the appointment feeling at ease with my health issues. I feel like her patient, not a number! I highly recommend her.

I had high hopes based on reviews of this doctor. That quickly changed during my first, and last, appointment. I communicated the honest feedback below to the office manager at the end of my visit. Pro’s:-professional staff -clean office Con’s:-not collaborative-ignores patient’s goals-poor listener-dismissive-irritable, combative, talks over you, raises voice and “yells at you” for sharing an opposing opinion-potential “God” complex issues -lack of bedside manner -lacks basic customer service and leadership skills-unwilling to customize a health plan based on individual needs and will categorize you based on the general population (ie, you don’t have _____ disease because you don’t look like it). There are exceptions to every rule and no two people are alike -lazy regarding finding test results in paperwork. She will expect you to find it for her when she cannot find it herself (“here, you find it” were her exact words).

I’ve been a patient of Dr Baraz for many years. I needed her expertise when my thyroid was removed and needed medication. She is like a detective monitoring my levels and changing doses of medication. She stayed the course with me and I’ve never felt better. Dr Baraz is knowledgeable, highly professional and always has the time to answer any questions. I feel blessed to have her as my doctor. I highly recommend her.

Very happy with Dr. Baraz. She listens to the patient and she's really down to earth. Also everyone in the office is very friendly. No long waits in the waiting room, top notch staff.

Dr Baraz is very down to earth, you can really relate to her, I find her attentive to your needs, she takes the time to answer all your questions and is very informative about your issues

Dr. Baraz takes the time to listen and is very thorough in her approach to medicine. I have the utmost confidence in her.

Dr Baraz treats my husband fir overactive thyroid. Has never been pushy about any treatment options. Always is willing to do what the patient feels most comfortable with. Rare thing in these days when so many doctors want to just remove the thyroid then keep you on medication for the rest of your life.

She was excellent, she was listening, and she cared. She answered all questions. I recommend her to anyone who needs her.

I have been very satisfied with the care and attention that I have received. With so many issues that I had during the 21 years I always felt taken care of and not pushed in any direction. I want to express my sincere appreciation for the promptness and professionalism of Dr Baraz and her staff.

Dr. Baraz is a friendly, knowledgeable, and down to earth Doctor. Talking to hear feels more like I'm talking to a friend than a Doctor. With her guidance I have been able to get and keep my condition under control.

Dr. Baraz knows me because she LISTENS and has observation skills, experience, and knowledge in her field unlike any doctor I have ever had.

Dr. Baraz is one of a kind. Honest, sincere, and truly makes you feel like she cares about your well being. I am thankful to have her as my endocrinologist.

Everyone was friendly, all the way from checkin, nurse, and of course Dr Baraz. Short wait time also.

She writes the script, and that’s about it. There’s no education or inquiry into how I’m doing. The office manager there is rude and antagonistic.

graves disease doc saved my life 7 years ago

I have been a patient of Dr. Baraz for over a year. Although obviously a licensed Dr and certified in her specialty I have felt almost from the first visit that she is overwhelmed, rushed and increasingly burnt out. She seems to be impatient when asked questions even about clarifying her medication directions. Her lack of compassion and empathy for my specific issues have led me to question if somehow I have offended her or if she is simply a misanthrope. Her assistant seems to be out of her depth / competence level and her office staff is terrible. Medication orders, refill requests etc are frequently "lost in the shuffle" (forgotten) and its always the pharmacy or someone else's fault. The robotic phone system in the office is extraordinarily difficult to navigate and frequently impossible to use to resolve issues as one doesn't have the ability to speak to a person for something that doesn't fit the script. Looking for another Dr. on my ins plan.

I have been seen by Dr. Baraz since 2015. She has done more to improve my care than any other Dr I have ever been to. Experienced, knowledgeable and caring. Best of the Best. Yes the staff and phone in service is crap like all the others these days.

The wait time to see the Dr has been minimal and she gives excellent help. Kind, caring and professional. Encouraging and motivating! Friendly manner with both her and her staff. Good communication with other doctors to keep them all in the loop of my condition.
