Dr. Latifah Sabree, MD

Many have praised Dr. Sabree of her work ethic, which explains my initial excitement to have her as my doctor. I live with a chronic condition that is the cause of 100% of my pain. I had hopes for managing my pain and finding a way to live without chronic agony. I’ve been her patient for a total of 9 months. In that time, I’ve noticed her primary pronouns are I, me, and my. Her comfort zone trumps her patient’s physical discomfort. She speaks fast and prefers to debate rather than educate. She looks to her patients to do the grunt work, like find specialists, regardless of the patient's frequent severe-pain-and-nausea complaint. And finally, she doesn’t ask for questions or concerns. I’m sure there’s a good reason for her to receive such high praise, mostly through MyAdvocate, but I'd rather put my health in the care of someone that's not just getting through the workday. I need someone with passion and compassion. She's not a good fit for the chronically ill.

Though my last wait time was insane, I've been seeing Dr. Sabree since I was a child and no one matches her in terms of the quality of care and the sheer amount of time and energy she expends on patients. She takes the time to answer every question and to really get at the heart of what you're dealing with. I'll take the wait time for that kind of care.
