Dr. Jennifer Brighter was my PCP for years. I recently felt the need to leave her care due to her attitude. She is very thorough with patients, which is cool, but also means you can have a 30 min-2.5 hr wait for your appointment to start. NOT COOL. Even her staff shows impatience with her ridiculous wait times! She's seems to want to understand a patient, but when you try to explain something she doesn't understand, she gets a little edgy. Can be confrontational. Someone nosy. Not a great deal of warmth, but is generally friendly. Shows a lack of understanding with those with mental illness, so I would not suggest people with one or more diagnosis of the sort to take her on as a full-time doctor. I think she could be a GREAT doctor is she could improve her disposition and somewhat aggressive style.
