Wish I'd seen this site B4 seeing her. Only reason I rated her 1 on punctuality is because 0 wasn't an option. Always late (30 min. to sometimes 2 HRS). When I'd finally get 2 C her she constantly interrupted me w/unrelated questions & would try to chit-chat about whatever was on her mind instead of focusing on my issues. If I only get 2 C a doc once a month 4 30 min. or less, I don't want 2 chit-chat. Spoke repeatedly & inapropriately 2 me about other patients. Did lab work on me once & almost put me on a med I didn't need because she misinterpreted a lab report. Tried 2 scare me of med I was taking by telling me it would give me a stroke or heart attack. (No scientific evidence 2 support this, I checked.) Her 1 advantage is that she knows how ins. works & knows how 2 get around it. So she'd write me Rxs 4 double the meds I needed so I'd get more meds w/the same co-pay. Also keeps leftover meds from other pts & re-distributes them (this is legal & helpful if U can't afford meds).

Always late (or even not showing up - her staff had no idea were she is), very unprofessional; maybe knowledgeable, but her way of treating patients is unacceptable. Constant interraptions, inapropriate comments.

I was not able to make appointment during the Dec transit strike, and I was charged, even after calling to indicate I couldn't make it. Also, it took 4 calls to the office and 1 full month for Gurvits to finally call my perscription into my pharmacy. Each time I was promised it would be called in right away. Each time i called back - they indicated they had no record of my previous call. She gives out free medication liberally that had been brought in from other patients. She talks about her other patients. She is always at least an hour late.

I was taken more than 2 hours after appointment time. While I was waiting I witnessed a very unprofessional office. Doctor was constantly being interrupted by receptionist (while Dr had patients in office!). At one point Dr received a delivery of what seemed to be food (I heard her shout that she was hungry). She was very loud. You could hear her from waiting room. VERY disruptive. A patient walked in and asked to speak to her (just a short question). Patient was allowed in and it turned out to be 45 minutes! I was told by receptionist that I had to wait (after already waiting 2 hours!). Dr is VERY cold. Intimidating, uninterested, and makes remarks that are unprofessional. Not very much eye contact. I would definitely not return! Avoid this Dr!

She is alittle intimidating but thorough. Very busy lady! She had a ton of people waiting for her so I felt alittle rushed. She is very calm and when she was with me she was with me not distracted. Felt comfortable. Highly recommended!
