Very rude and condescending. Asked me why I put on weight in the middle of winter (from summer to winter). Made me feel bad about myself for having anxiety issues and tried to force me to see some sort of psychological treatment when I have regular anxiety over work stress.

It is almost impossible to get an appointment in this office-- after my initial appointment was cancelled by the office, I rescheduled for a few weeks later. I needed a follow up for my blood results and the office let me know they couldn't squeeze me in for two months and refused to give me my blood results over the phone. The wait in the office was 4 HOURS.
I have since changed PCP's.

Probably one of the better internal doctors I've been to. I've been going to her for a couple of years now and she always checks for everything. Even things I wouldn't think of which is good because after all, that is her job. She always gives me the prescriptions I need and follows up with my periodically.

The office staff was very professional and pleasant. Dr. Israel took her time with me and answered all my questions. The office was clean and there was no wait at all! I would highly recommend this office and this MD.

She was professional and made me feel comfortable. However, I feel as if she wasn't sure what my ailment was at the time of my visit, and a bit confused on what to diagnose it as. I like that she asked several questions before my checkup.

She was very thorough and had a well equipped office.
Was probably the best physical I have had in my life.
Sunday hours - that's a huge plus.

I thought my visit was good except for the long wait. However, they explained to me that they were dealing with an emergency.

My MD visit was very complete. MD takes the time to go over your lab results and test results with you, make the necessary reccommendations and follow up for next visit. Review of current medications and new meds on market to help you. MD discuss options that would best improve your health.

Dr. Roza Israel is very smart, kind and she knows her job very well. Her manners are excellent.I could say that i never had a doctor like her. She answered all my questions and explained everything that was important. The wait time wasnt too long. I'm very pleased with this doctor and i would highly recommend her to anybody. I could even say that i'm in love with her because after seeing her i felt much better.
