Great doctor - have now been seeing her over a year. Very responsive to phone calls and emails. Only uses zocdoc for new patient appointments, and books up very quickly so plan on making your follow up appointments in-session.

Great doctor - have now been seeing her over a year. Very responsive to phone calls and emails. Only uses zocdoc for new patient appointments, and books up very quickly so plan on making your follow up appointments in-session.

I loved Wendy and I wish I could still go to her (I've since moved out of state.)
She is very calm and kind, and I like that she respects every need of her patients. She also firmly believes that a healthy lifestyle is the foundational correction for any problem, which is helpful. I know some doctors who will simply prescribe you with a ton of drugs and let you find the door. Wendy isn't like that.
March 25, 2014Initials hidden
Dr. Wolfson is incredible! She's intuitive and empathetic as well as professionally objective. I look forward to our office visits and seeing her around the neighborhood :)

Very knowledgeable and understanding of your situation. Tries to really get a feel for what you are going through and why you need certain medications, in addition to advising new ones. Very impressed this afternoon overall.

She is fabulous! Wendy is an approachable, real person - and truely engaged to help her patients. Don't question making this appointment for one second.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr. Wolfson is excellent and efficient without giving you the impression that she is in a rush (just one of those people that makes you feel like you're the only one that matters when you are talking to her)!
August 28, 2013Initials hidden
She was friendly and engaging. Perhaps it's because she's a D.O., but I liked her a lot more than many other psychiatrists I've had, and would definitely recommend her to others.

My first visit to Dr Wolfson was very positive. I was nervous walking in and she instantly made me feel comfortable. She was very easy to talk to and made me realize I made the right decision by coming to her. She explained the medications thoroughly and made sure I knew she was available to call or email if I had any questions.

June 20, 2013Initials hidden
I had good first visit with her. She was thorough and asked what seemed like the right questions and was helpful. She only does Drug therapy, so make sure that is what you are looking for. Overall a good experience.
February 6, 2013Initials hidden
She was great - seemed very knowledgeable and professional. Haven't decided whether I'm going to start taking the medication that was prescribed for me yet, and she asked me to text her if I decide to start taking it so she can schedule me a followup. I definitely appreciate a doctor using technology to keep in touch directly, as opposed to having to call and leave messages with assistants! I def recommend her.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr. Wolfson was fantastic! Very easy to talk with and I instantly felt at ease and that she really understood my experience. It is difficult to find a great psychiatrist in the City, but she is one of them! I would recommend her to anyone.
