Rude , Disrespectful and Arrogant...A Quack!
Her knowledge comes from made up treatments of which I do think she believes work!
Save your strength and time, I saw her for years and she did nothing but get me sicker with her so called alternative treatments once I stopped seeing her and stopped her treatments I felt 100% better!!
She’s delusional!!
Wishing anyone with illness of any kind much positivity and brighter days ahead may you be blessed.

Costs are not transparent at all. VERY expensive. Violates HIPPA by complaining to staff about other patients (by first and last name). Referred to me as "fat" (BMI of 24) and offered no help for inflammation issues. Negative experience.

Great doctor. Will spend an hour or more with you/your family. There is usually a wait but well worth it.

She helped treat my late stage Lyme disease and also diagnosed and treated my co-infection (bartonella), which was overlooked by my other providers. She was recommended by Tufts Medical Lyme Center and Spaulding Hospital. I was so sick. She gave me my life back!

She's a good technician, but personality is wanting. I agree with those comments on her personality issues. She's fine until you run into her edges which can be expressed as very respectful and condescending. She does herself a disservice on that count. It really undermines her practice.

I saw Dr. Englander after I went through an abandonment trauma, and even though i had some physical issues such as candida, i asked for referral to a psychotherapist. She highly recommended someone, who turned out to be was very emotionally abusive to women in traditional roles, powerfully betraying her much younger client, misusing her ego and professional status, and triggering a much worse trauma than I came in with. When I told Dr. Englander she said: Oh she used to be a friend but no longer is. and waved it off. The psychotherapist turned out to not even have a license. I am not at all surprised to read that 30 years later Dr. Englander is reported as moody and brusque. Bedside manners and really caring when someone is down and out is medicinal. Love heals. Rudeness is the opposite.

I love Carol Englender.I have seen her for more than 20 years. I am now paying out of pocket because she does not accept Medicare.She is worth every penny. Dr. Englender "thinks outside the box." She is brilliant and creative. I have always found her very compassionate. She usually runs late but that is because she spends over an hour with her patients. No PCP I know does this now. When I had a medical crisis she was very available. She always returns calls promptly. Over the years,she has referred me to excellent specialists. I recommend Dr. Englender without reservation

I suffer from mold toxicity, lyme disease, MCS, Emf sensitivities and CFS which is the reasons i saw Dr englender. Although she did seem compassionate towards my situation i did not receive any help from her. I spent a lot of money on unnecessary tests and if i had to do it again i wouldn't have gone to her. She didn't give me very good recommendations and i didn't receive any benefit from them.
