In patients' words
"Dr. Rae is a kind, compassionate, caring person who listens to me, takes my thoughts into consideration."
— Healthgrades (Dr. Emily Rae)"Doesn’t listen to patients concerns. Has his nurse follow up more than he does. Discontinues patients if you address concerns about what you’re being prescribed."
— Healthgrades (Dr. Barry Irons)"Easily the worst physician I've ever encountered in my life."
— WebMD (Dr. Laurie Polubinsky)"Without the continued guidance, support and help over a two decade battle with many different issues, I am the most stable I've ever been."
