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!

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.

The worst experience I ever had
My appointment was for 8:00am they sent me a confirmation and remainder on my email the day before then I received a text message at the same day at 6:30am that I have an app at 8:00am, I got there at 8:00am and no one was there and when I call there some rude lady told me that they actually opened at 9:00am and this is a mistake, and just hang up on me ????
This is disgusting!!!!!!

She was wonderful and knowledgeable
August 12, 2020Santo S.Verified patient
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.
