Dr. Birnkrant is an excellent doctor and a compassionate person. When he received the results of a mammogram indicating that I had breast cancer, he called me the same day to talk me through it. He immediately arranged for me to see one of the best breast cancer specialists in D.C. He also continued to check in with me throughout the diagnostic process and while I decided what type of surgery was best for me, helping to guide me through the decision making process. His professional skills are matched only by his kind heart.

Dr Birnkrant is an excellent doctor and a wonderful person. I feel very fortunate to have found him. He is the most caring doctor one can have. I always have many questions and he patiently answers each of them. I needed to make a difficult decision and he helped me get other doctors' opinions; I will forever be thankful. His staff is also wonderful and always very helpful.

Dr. Birnkrant is great. He sits down with each patient and discusses issues and options in detail. I want to get an IUD, and he was very forthcoming about the pros, cons, risks, and rewards involved. He is careful, cautious, and knowledgeable. I just hope Blue Cross/Blue Shield will let me get my IUD!!

His healing hands have allowed me to return to living without the pain of endometriosis and uterine fibroid tumors. I highly recommend him if he is in your insurance network.
