Dr. Blair was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. She took my concerns seriously and addressed each of them, and when she was unsure about something, she recommended another expert. I've encountered dismissive providers in the past (though not in Endocrinology), and meeting with Dr. Blair was definitely a positive experience.

I so appreciated Dr. Blair's flexibility in squeezing me in at the last minute. It's a seven-hour trip and I was flying into Boston and she managed to get me in based on my flight arrival and spent a considerable amount of time more than I anticipated. Very thorough, very articulate, could not be happier.

Dr. Rachel Blair, an endoskeletal specialist, is an excellent professional who listens attentively to her patients, allowing them to express everything they feel, all their pains, and everything related to their bodies. This enables her to provide a more accurate and precise diagnosis regarding the patient's medical care. She is also very thorough in reviewing their previous medical history. She reads their entire record and makes notes in their medical chart. She is attentive to every inquiry and orders laboratory tests, blood work, and other relevant information to properly assess and diagnose the patient. She is an excellent professional at Brigham and Bowman Hospital. Thank you.

I wanted to leave a message just to say that I was very grateful for Dr. Blair's care. I've been shuttled with about four or five different providers in endocrinology and I'm very grateful to have been put in Dr. Blair's hands. This is the first time that a doctor has seen me on the same day and not just sent me off to the emergency room, which is completely unnecessary for the situation. So I'm grateful for her knowledge of the medication, her patience, her seeking out assistance from colleagues and input. I think that's what the medical field is all about. I'm very grateful that she was slightly late. I didn't mark her as that. She kept me informed through the portal to let me know that she was on her way and how much longer she would be. She was incredibly apologetic. But I also work in healthcare and understand that oftentimes appointments are not just on time. She is phenomenal, she's knowledgeable, and I'm just very grateful and hope that she does not leave your practice or retire in the near future. Thank you so much.

Yes, Rachel Blair was wonderful. She was courteous. She was kind. She was attentive. She listened with her heart. She showed care regarding myself as a patient. She was knowledgeable in her field. She was willing to accept that I might be non-traditional, having my own medical background, but my own concerns about certain treatment modalities. I can only say wonderful good things about her and look forward to working with her with continuous care going forward, just to waiting to hear back regarding a consultation that she was having with gynecology, women's health. Thank you.

Dr. Blair is great. She is very smart, and clearly thinks through the science when making decisions or answering questions. She also is warm, personable, and approachable. She listens. If she has to say no or maybe, she explains why in a respectful, clear, non-condescending manner. An appointment with her feels like meeting with someone who is on your side and truly wants the best for you. She is able to communicate effectively, make a plan with you, be kind, treat you with respect, and take you seriously all in the allotted appointment time. I wish other doctors could figure out how to do that :)

I'm in my mid 50s, and Dr. Rachel Blair is by far the best doctor I have ever had the opportunity to see. I was given ample time to ask questions and Dr. Blair made sure that I understood all of the information she was giving me about my osteoporosis treatment options. She was thorough, and has ordered tests to make sure there were no other underlying causes for the early onset of menopause & osteoporosis in my case. I feel so lucky that my PCP referred me to Dr. Blair, and I want to tell everyone about her! I'm a healthcare professional myself, and not only am I very grateful for the wonderful care from Dr. Blair, she was inspiring to me to make sure my patients feel as well cared for and listened to as she made me feel.

The suite is 402. Dermatology is on the left and is NOT differentiated from the different offices on the right. It is all 402. So, I think that there should be signage to reflect that when you walk in the door indicating dermatology is to the left with an arrow and all else to the right.

She was excellent taking the time needed to go over and explain things to me and also did not rush me when I was providing her with my complicated past medical history.
