I really enjoyed my visit with Dr. Yelena Ilina. She carefully listened to all my concerns, reviewed reports I brought to her from recent tests I took and provided valuable recommendations. She put my mind at ease during the appointment and after I left the office I felt better already!
I recommend this neurologist, she listens she cares and got all my needed exams scheduled for my future treatment. Great and professional and staff.

Very positive experience. I have to admit that as a woman of color I’ve experienced medical racism in various offices and hospitals but this staff actively created a welcoming environment for me, listened intently to my concerns, and treated me with the sort of care and kindness that all patients deserve. Highly recommend.

She basically brushed me off and didn’t take me serious because of my age. I definitely would not recommend her to someone who is worried about serious illness. She didn’t even check me, she just told me “it’s all in my head and it’s a bad mindset o have” verbatim.
