5.0 star star star star starDr. Grebenciucova (G) made me feel confident that I was in the best of care due to her knowledge with MS. She did not make me feel rushed and was able to explain and show a brain MRI with MS from google to compare with my current brain MRI (without MS) to see the difference. Dr G. further explained the symptoms do coincide with MS but these symptoms are not unique only to MS but many other illnesses as well. She affirmed my symptoms are not from MS based on her evaluation and most likely be from my myelopathy issue.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Elena is excellent; she explains everything in easy-to-understand detail. She also listens to her patients. She's not rushed like today's doctors, which is wonderful because you feel like your time in the office is valuable. Dr. Elena always responds to her patients' messages. I could list many positive qualities about her doctor, but my review would be very long. Lorena, the nurse, is a super kind person, also compassionate and patient. She has always been able to help me with all my issues, and I could go on. I would highly recommend her services.

She is an excellent doctor; I am very satisfied with her professionalism. She answered all my questions, even some of which were unnecessary thanks to the doctor's clear, concise, and excellent explanation. With Dr. G., I feel like I'm in good hands.
