Dr. Mary Esther Harrow, DO

I was never given the chance to see this doctor. They are classist and discriminate based on the kind of insurance you have. If you have Medicaid, they will turn you away and treat your far less than human.

Not much to say besides the title. I was in such severe pain from this doctor I had to go to the ER. Now my insurance is investigating and rightfully so, I assume they will be contacting her next!! What a horrible detour, and she is CRAZY. Flicking off the air in anger about the mask ordanance and telling me how your siblings were molested....no thanks

Without doubt, Dr Harrow is the smartest person I know when it comes to the body and the way it functions. She doesn't simply give you a pill, which causes other side effects. She actually gets to the root of the problem and address that. Wish more Western medicine docs understood the body the way she does! Beyond amazing!

I am surprised to see such positive reviews about this icy callous doctor. I filled out all the paperwork in advance with all the health questions and was very thorough. I came in with blood labs that have been done on me in previous appts with another doctor revealing what is going on with me and diagnosis. She dismissed everything and made it very clear that all my health issues were in my head and that they were due to my emotions! I couldn't believe my ears. She spent time with me basically telling me how I'm wasting money on tests and supplements and gave me a referral to see some counselor or some sort of healing guru and proceeded to tell me how she came from an alcoholic home and how she had to go down deep to resolve all the crap that happened to her. On top of all that, she cussed like a sailor using the word f*ck*ng numerous times and the shi* word frequently as well. Anything I said, she was quick to dismiss me. I was stunned. She was as cold as ice. Yet, while I was… waiting in the exam room, I could hear her next door with a man and she was as polite and kind to him as could be. I thought she sounded great and was hoping she was going to be a good doctor for me. It was my first time seeing her and she chased me away with tears in my eyes when I left. This woman is like a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. If anyone needs to see a counselor and deal with some unresolved issues, I believe it is her. Never again will I go back to her and I certainly won't refer her to anyone.

I saw Dr. Harrow for the first time upon a referral from someone. I was hopeful she would be a good fit doctor for me. What I received was her saying ALL my health issues were emotionally-based. She would not do any labs as she said she wasn't a supporter of labs and didn't go by numbers! She threw the "f" word out multiple times along with the sh*t word. I found her very unprofessional, chilly, and callous. I will not refer her to anyone and will not ever return to her again. Was a very disappointing appt. and a waste of time not to mention my co-pay as well. I don't need an insensitive doctor.

I am blessed to have found Dr. Harrow and she is now our Family Doctor. She is an excellent physician, who treats a patient with respect, caring and she really listens (sometimes rare in the medical professional)

Dr Harrow is an exceptional inteeligent well versed doctor!! I have had serious chronic symptons and have been to many many doctors. I have never experienced any doctor with such an amzing amount of knowledge. Finally, I have found a doctor whom is helping me to be on my way to good health!

I believed the reviews and and waited weeks to get in to see this quack. Let me tell you what happened, so you can judge for yourself. 1) Appointment was scheduled for 8:30 a.m., I was informed to arrive 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork. I arrived at 8:10, doors were locked, no one inside. 8:25, someone finally shows up and unlocks the doors. Does not greet me, just walks off into another room and has me wait. Then after I attempt to fill out paperwork in the 1 minute remaining before my appointment I find out that this late/rude woman is the "doctor". 2) I get into the room, where there is a massage table and various relics of "old medicine" set up, for what I can only hope is decoration. I began to talk to her about my issues, She was very dismissive and repeated back ailments that I never said I had. Her listening skills were poor at best. A patient should not have to repeat themselves many times. 3) I informed her that my back was in a great deal of pain to the touch, so… what did she do? She used this hammering machine on my back for what felt like forever, while I cried in pain. During this torturous time, she had odd conversations with my 4-year-old daughter. They talked about many things, some of which were extremely inappropriate, such as prayer and how this "doctor" likes to judge people by their body type. Something that my daughter has never been subjected to. Now I have to explain to my very impressionable child that everything that this woman said was untrue. 4) When discussing one of my chronic conditions, which is being treated by a specialist, I was told by this woman to discontinue my real medicine and trade it out for aloe vera juice. This is the most insane thing I have ever heard. If I had not researched my condition in great detail and did not know the science behind what is wrong with me, this could cause much more harm than good. This type of "medicine" is not based on scientific fact. It is based on the power of suggestion and thought. I am now in a tremendous amount of pain and it will take me weeks to heal and to find a real doctor. Please do not make this mistake, it could hurt you physically and will definitely hurt your wallet as she charged twice what MD's in the area charge.

I was referred to Dr. Harrow by Kaiser for my shoulder injury as a result of training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I was so impressed at the energy and warmth of the office but more then that I was impressed with the actual time and knowledge she shared with me about why my shoulder was doing what it was doing. She reminded me of Temperance Brennan in the TV Show Bones. She really loves what she does and it shows.

Dr. Harrow seemed distracted during my office visits. She didn't make the effort to learn about me before treatment, a lack of interest in history or symptoms. While I've heard good things about her, my experience was poor.
