Over 18 years of experience. Yet knows nothing about being a m.d. The purpose of your job is to make sure the patient is taken care of. I had multiple arguments because my insurance company approved a medication and the doctor didn't. Now I recieved a letter saying they will no longer be providing me treatment. No sweat off my back. Worst endocrinologist I have had the unpleasure of dealing with. I hope no one visits your practice. She should be reviewed by the medical board and have her license revoked.

Dr. Ginsburg certainly knows what makes her patients happy. She runs on time, asks all the right questions and above all listens. I have had things explained to me so thoroughly by Dr. Ginsburg - no matter how many times I’ve asked the same question. I have the utmost respect for the caring considerate doctor Dr, Karyn Ginsburg is.

I had fine needle thyroid biopsies. I was told it was going to be painful and side affects would be terrible Not with Dr. Ginsburg. I went shopping and dinner that same day right after the procedure. Whew..I'm beyond satisfied with her expertise. She's confident, knowledgeable and caring. I cannot say positive things about this doctor!!

The only reason I left Dr. Ginsberg was because of her tertiary staff. If she leaves that group I may see her again. They were disorganized. Her assistant was combative. I couldnt take it.

This doctor knows NOTHING about Graves Disease/hyperthyroidism. She doesn't even know which blood tests to use. Don't bother.
