Good

Dr. Karlin spent an adequate amount of time understanding my experience with migraine headaches and asked thorough questions. She explored the effectiveness of my current medications and made recommendations to improve the frequency, duration and approach. I feel we have a good plan to move forward and am confident she will continue to work with me to find the right balance.

She was kind, but picked up personal phone call during appointment and checked phone for messages. I left my appointment feeling a little rushed and confused about the next step with what I would be talking.

Dr Karlin has really grown on me as she had some big shoes to fill. I had [...] for almost twenty years until he retired so he was like a dad to me. But she has been great trying to work through my case and getting to know me. This last visit I feel she actually really spent time with me as well and I wasn't rushed. I appreciate that as I drive an hour to be there. I still miss [...] but the care team here has been great.

Dr.karlin is amazing!! From answering me on the endeavor app to reviewing everything during my appointment and moving things around if needed. She has been attentive now that I'm pregnant and that means alot to me. I get terrible migraines and she's making sure I'm on the right meds that I am allowed to take while pregnant or tell me what else I can do. She took her time with me this last appointment which meant alot she didn't rush it.

I trust her medical knowledge and judgement, but wish she had a better bedside manner. It's always a bit awkward talking with her. She can be very curt. I will say this visit was better than it has been in the past.

Did not listen. Had preconceived notions on prior treatments that worked, and dismissed them to push her own agenda.
