3.0 star star star star_border star_borderI don't know yet if she is a good surgeon, but feel like there is a lack of compassion. Endometrial biopsies are painful, but she did not take me seriously when I was having one. They also cause bleeding, but I was not offered a pad. I had questions about upcoming surgery that were not answered.

2.0 star star star_border star_border star_borderI felt the doctor was very rushed. I had to fill out many long questionaires. The questions asked were not addressed in my appointment ( which was a video appointment ) In my in person appointment she was again rushed. The fellow found some issues but those issues were not addressed. Because had just had a procedure I did not have the presence of mind to address the findings of the fellow. I would say the care was not well coordinated between providers I saw

5.0 star star star star starBecause I think she’s very knowledgeable very professional explained everything very well to me the pros and the cons and help me make a decision and I feel very confident in my decision now before I did not know which way to go with my surgery but Julia Dr Julia made me feel very comfortable and confident in my decision. They left it totally up to me they gave me information on both types of surgery so that I was able to make a good decision.

5.0 star star star star starShe was very thorough and zeroed in on the issue. It was comfortable talking with her. It was a telehealth appt. The next appt I requested an in office visit. This was/is a very personal issue to discuss. I felt too removed.

4.0 star star star star star_borderI haven’t met her yet face to face, this was a telephone meeting. I feel I need more time to evaluate her but so far I was very well impressed and I look forward to meeting her at my in office visit next week.

4.0 star star star star star_borderAfter an initial diagnosis was found inaccurate, there has been no follow-up on the symptoms I am experiencing that had been attributed to that diagnosis. Additionally, I have not received a response in regards to addressing these symptoms.

5.0 star star star star starThe Doctor listened and diagnosed my symptoms according to my questionnaire and how I responded she gave me a step towards getting help and what I needed to do to improve my physician state. I did a phone consultation so I can’t expect much from just talking but she seemed to listen. The Doctor did what she needed to do.

4.0 star star star star star_borderDr. Geynisman-Tan was very nice and knowledgeable, but I have only briefly spoken with her on the phone/video chat. As of right now, I have no reason to discourage anyone from the practice or doctor.

External Professional Relationships
Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.

Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
