The wait time for my appointment was 10 times the length of the 5 minutes she spent with me. During the exam , she left the room for phone calls and was interrupted numerous times. Didn't really seem to listen, and just ordered some blood work. Waste of time. No followup . Should be more concerned with patients well being.

I have been seeing Dr. Gorkin for 18 years. She is kind, understanding, patient and thorough as is her staff. She takes her time with you and listens intently, never rushing you. When I go there or when I call, I always have received the best of care and help. I cannot understand how anyone would give her or them anything but an excellent review. Ivy M. Moreno

The wait time for my appointment was 5 times the length of the 10 minutes she spent with me. During the 10 minutes she left the room twice for phone calls and was interrupted numerous times. Didn't really seem to listen, and just ordered some blood work. Waste of time. No followup unless you call her. My 3rd appointment like this with her was my last with her. Should be more concerned with patients well being.

Outstanding physician!!! Dr Gorkin listens and truly cares. Dr Gorkin spends a great deal of time during the physical and ask many questions. She takes her time and engage you in your own care. I learned so much form our conversations. Dr Gorkin is brilliant and I would highly recommend

this is the worst dr at montefiore...she refuses to participate in your care...she's rude and nasty..i wouldn't recommend a dog to be treated by her...she probably wouldn't want to participate in the dogs care either...she should just retire

She was my primary care doctor briefly. She was recommended to me by a long-time patient. Staff is pleasant and the office accepts my insurance. It's convenient and low cost, but wait times can be excessive and exams fast/minimal, so I found another doctor.

I went to this Doctor a few months ago, during the exam she answered the phone and made appts. Her office staff is rude. The doctor seem uninterested. I went for 3 appts before I decided to drop her.
