I gave Dr. Birenbaum the stars she deserves. Since being my PCP for the last 6 years, she has been wonderful. I she is not an expert in the area of your ailment, she will definitely send you to a physician who is. Love her......

This doctor cares more than any other doctor I've been to. She is willing to listen and alters her approach based on feedback from you. I wish all doctors were like this.
