Dr. Roni Barbara Greifner, MD

During our initial meeting after 15 minutes, Dr. Greifner diagnosed me with Bipolar Disorder. She said she could tell by my "eyes". I was suffering from depression as my mother had just died. 10 years later, I'm still not Bipolar. She has no empathy and is just a pill doctor. The meds she put me on not only made me manic/depressive, but actually affected my white blood cell count. Putting it a zero. My primary care physician told me I had no immune system after her medication. Stay away from her. Period.

Dr. Griefner has helped me tremendously the last 12 years. I see her every 5 or 6 weeks. Yes, her fees are outrageous and she doesn't take insurance, but I think that's just the industry. My first impression was not great but every time I went back she gave me just the boost I needed. Unlike other therapists she doesn't just only give sympathy and tell you what you want to hear, but challenges you to reach within yourself and be the best self you can be and develop inner strength. She IS sympathetic but she won't let you get by with a pity party . I write down "nuggets" of life hints she gives

She's only interested in your money. She has zero empathy or respect. Don't see her.

Dr. Greifner is impatient, self-absorbed, and displays no empathy.

Roni greifner is skilled at diagnosing, but lacks any ounce of empathy. During a vulnerable time for me, she scheduled me to come in 6 times in one month, in one instance back to back days. The issue is her fees for 40 minutes which is 249.00 she would provide samples of meds or no refills to hold you hostage. Who can afford 1000.00 a month for 280 minutes of talking? I ended up canceling my last two appointments and she sent me a bill for 500.00. Pass on her and find someone more concerned about your health and less about her deep pocketbook.
