Dr. Susan Perlmutter Pauker, MD

Doesn't listen, thinks she is above others. Bad hygiene, her office smells. Missed a diagnosis of Down syndrome.

I adore Dr. Pauker! After YEARS of suffering with joint dislocations, severe pain, numerous medical complications, and misdiagnosis, I was referred to genetics to see Dr. Pauker. She spent hours with me, and diagnosed me with a rare connective tissue disorder, called Ehlers-danlos syndrome She is kind, compassionate, validating, and brilliant. I had lost all faith in the medical community before meeting Dr. Pauker. I can't say enough about her. She saved me from the depths of despair, by finally figuring out what was wrong with me!

My husband and I met Dr. Pauker under the worst of circumstances. At 19 weeks of our pregnancy we went for out standard ultrasound and found out that our baby had Osteogenesis Imperfecta. With an hour of leaving the diagnostic center we had an appointment with Dr. Pauker for the next morning. She was one of the kindest, most compassionate people I have ever met. She full explained the diagnosis and prognosis while be both professional and compassionate. Our appointment with her lasted over an hour and she did not rush or push the decision we had to make. The first thing she told us was that she worked for us and her only interest was in best meeting our care needs. In the worst imaginable situation she helped to give us comfort and peace.
