I felt as if Dr. Polar talked down to me and did not make me feel comfortable. I'm sure she is a fine doctor but if I'm not comfortable being open and honest with my primary, there's no point in going. I will find someone else.

Very nice doctor
Verified patient
She was alright overall, but consistently raised her voice when speaking with me and said "you ask many questions" once. Her behavior can be unprofessional at times, and she gets defensive/aggressive when her medical opinion is questioned. I think I may not see her again as my primary care doctor.
Millie, the nurse, was so sweet and so gentle when taking blood, it made me far less nervous. Dr. Polar was incredibly nice and answered questions I had. I won’t be nervous going back to see her!
