Excellent Dr. Tells me my progress and what I need to do to improve my health
March 10, 2026
Dr. Grinblatt had not just a calming & reassuring & confident bedside manner but was extremely knowledgeable in his field. Also, like in other reviews I poured over before I made the appointment - he thoroughly reviewed my history, prior labs & current symptoms and walked me through his analysis and recommendations. He worked with me on putting a reasonable plan together but mostly relieved that potentially I just may need to be monitored if initial tests come back ok. But in either case, after meeting him I have full confidence in his care!
