She also spent some time explaining how she pioneered this kind of treatment. But she hadn't reviewed the notes that my office had sent her, and didn't know basic things about my medical history like my diagnosis of [redacted]. She also prescribed an injectable without discussing the mechanics of it in any way. [redacted]","review_date":"2026-05-01"},{"body":"Good program. Lost a ton of weight. Very pleased.

In the last 14 years, she has helped me lose almost 100 pounds!","review_date":"2026-04-21"},{"body":"Although this was a virtual appointment, I felt the provider did not look at me. She was looking somewhere to the bottom left of the screen. She said that patients usually don't see her first, before a dietician, but she was who I was scheduled with. I had no idea of the order. I felt she had an attitude, had no \"bedside\" manner and was unrealistic in her expectations. At one point, she made me feel stupid for saying something.

I know that doctors are just people too, so I don't expect perfection, but I expect kindness and consideration. During most of the visit I felt like she was talking down to me and she was talking very loudly, as if she was talking at me instead of to me. I have a history of disordered eating and my weight is a tough subject for me to talk about, as I'm sure it is for a lot of people, and it was very hard for me to have a conversation with her. [redacted] I do acknowledge that I am sensitive about this topic, and this physician is probably like this with all of her patients so I'm trying not to take it personally. She clearly is very smart and knowledgeable and does want to help her patients. I know she has written many books and has done tons of research. I'm sure a lot of patients appreciate her very direct approach. I appreciate directness too, but most of the conversation I felt like she was upset with me. I understand she wants to create a \"safe\" household for me in terms of the foods that are in it, but my goal is to not be so triggered by these foods.","review_date":"2025-12-22"},{"body":"I thought she was great.

But both times I've seen her. She seems rushed and does not listen. Well to what I have to say or take the time to listen to what I have to say. I felt so rushed that I had no time to ask any of the questions that I wanted to, or even given the opportunity to think for a moment Given the information that was provided.","review_date":"2025-12-07"},{"body":"Dr. Apovian is a superb, caring physician.","review_date":"2025-11-17"},{"body":"Hi, this is [redacted], a patient of Dr. Apovian's.
