Dr. Karina Khouri Belinfante, MD

I lost 10+ years of good health and a small fortune – managing a disease I never had. Thanks to Dr. Belinfante and her team's continued misdiagnosis of Fibromyalgia, I became barely functional with extreme joint/muscle/stomach pain. It was only The Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause and I only needed hormone replacement therapy. Now I have spine degeneration because I was over medicated with psychiatric drugs instead. These drugs causes a 75% increase in bone loss and fractures. During this time, I suffered 3 fragility fractures, 2 joint replacements and FOUR surgeries with metal plates to fix everything. Also, a loss of $700,000+ in income and $30,000+ in pain management treatments. The harm done has been immeasurable.

Cutting to the chase, if it weren't for Dr. Belinfante's care, I don't think that I would still be here. She thinks through her patients' needs and does not 'beat around the bush' of her recommendations. She is a very good doctor and I highly recommend her, for she has been my doctor for years. I just love Dr. Belinfante!

Both my father and I are patients of dr. Belinfante. We were referred to her years ago when our general practitioner moved from general Practice in to research. It has been a continual problem with this doctor to get her to call prescriptions into a pharmacy within a reasonable amount of time. 24 to 48 hours can pass before a new prescription is called in and that is only after I call the office and complain. this is completely unprofessional!

Dr. Belinfante is one of the best physicians I have had. She is patient, thoughtful and very thorough.

Very easy to talk to, smart thorogh, caring, listens, didn't care for her PA email access

My doctor of 18 yeard retired so I began seeking another doctor. I found this doctor via google search. I set an appt for a physical but my main concern was lumps in my neck that have been hurting and I wanted to know whqat they were. I go in and the vibe in the entire place just felt unwelcoming. I was given a chart to fill out and before I got the 1st page filled out I got called to the back by the rudest nurse I have ever met. She is either having a bad day or just naturally mean. She refused to make eye contact and spoke under her breath to where I had to keep asking her to repeat herself. Very unfriendly. While the nurse is taking my BP I am having to fill out my chart that I never had time to complete in the waiting room. Don't get me wrong I apppreciate not having to wait long but how would the doctor know what's wrong if I don't complete the chart? The doctor came in as I just completed the chart and she sits about 4 feet from me. She asks me questions from the chart I just… completed and I told her my main concern is the lumps in my neck. She looks at my neck from her chair and gives me a series of possible things it could be. She never came to feel my neck or anything. She tells me she will send me somewhere to get it looked at but the office was closed that day and will have them contact me after the weekend. It is now Thursday with no word from either office. The only one that was nice was the guy who did my blood work. As I walked out to the waiting room to be checked out I saw saw an elderly woman asking the same nurse I had to show her something on a piece of paper she just gave her as she was having difficulty finding it. The nurse told her it was on there and she would just have to look for it. I can stand up for myself but I hate seeing the elderly and children mistreated. I would NEVER return to this office. They are clearly about getting your money and getting you out. That was a half physical I received but they sure did charge full price...

Dr Belinfante is very personable and knowledgable. Overall, she is very kind and listens about your concerns.

I would not recommend her to anyone!

Waiting time is always about 20. Medical assistants have very little medical knowledge and their beside manners lack professionalism. Doctor is short with answers for the most part, but she has a nice demeanor. She walked out the room rather quickly. Test results letter sent after 2 weeks and they warn you not to call. Clinic staff needs counseling about patient care, now!!!

I love Dr. Belinfante -- she is very caring and takes plenty of time with me. She is thorough in asking about symptoms and makes sure to consider all possibilities. I have been going to her for a couple of years -- wouldn't go anywhere else!
