Dr. Taylor has moved from the practice she was with in San Jose. I was her patient for about a year and a half. She did not listen to what I had to say. She had me on what I later found out was a much lower dose of thyroid medication than I should have been on. She suggested she do a sonogram assisted biopsy- not sure of the exact name- never told me that she would be learning how to do it on me. It was a terrible experience. After that- I found a new Dr. And she soon left that practice.

I had gone to this Doctor for thyroid problems, she told me I had a nodule and did'nt ultrasound it, and was very rushed and she did'nt have a good bedside manner. I have stopped going to this Doctor and would not recommend her.

I have been seeing Dr. Taylor for 4 years. I have Diabetes. She knows what she is talking about and has been very helpful to me. She answers my questions and is willing to spend whatever time I may need with her. If you are a Diabetic this is a Dr. I would recommend.

I went to see this doctor to try and review my thyroid history in order to get a diagnosis. I showed her all of the records I had collected regarding the problem - just a thin stack. She wasn't interested in the history, only with the most recent test. She wasn't interested in hearing about the symptoms I have been having. I mentioned that I am breastfeeding, but she didn't pay attention, and prescribed medications that aren't the first choice for breastfeeding, I discovered after getting home. She didn't answer my straight questions about the source of my symptoms, saying that it just couldn't be determined. I didn't enjoy her bedside manner. She did give me medication, which will hopefully at least address the symptoms. That will be a relief. I won't be going back to that practice.

She saw me for my pituitary problem, but I found out the hard way she knew nothing about pituitary disorders. I asked her if she could do a "stim test" on my adrenals, pretty standard. She said "whats a stim test?". Then, when I called for a renewal on my prescription for testosterone which she had renewed previously, she refused to fill and her staff said she no longer wants to give testosterone to women. Every study has talked about benefits in replacing testosterone in women whose pituitary no longer can make it. I asked her to call me with an explanation and instead I had to call back a few days later and was just given another message...that she will just not prescribe it anymore. If you have a pituitary disorder, DO NOT go to this Dr., it is over her head!
