Meenakshi Kumar's Online Review Report Card

My experience with Dr. Kumar was very negative, and I would not recommend her to anyone. After seeing the notes from our appointment, I realized she did not listen to anything I shared and instead projected her own thoughts. After diagnosing me with a thyroid disease, I asked her if I should see an endocrinologist for a consult, and she said they wouldn't take me seriously. After I decided to follow my gut and see an endocrinologist anyway, turns out they took me very seriously! Dr. Kumar pushed back on labs that I requested saying they weren't necessary, however those labs were the very ones used to create a treatment plan for me. Dr. Kumar knows some of the functional medicine buzzwords, but she doesn't understand the body as being fully connected and doesn't do due diligence to find the root of the issue and LISTEN to the patient in front of her without interrupting every thought.

I have had the great honor of being Dr. Kumar's patient for almost a full year after switching from a less-than-helpful MGH PCP, and I can't sing her praises enough. Dr. Kumar and her practice are the reason why I was able to get immediate care needed for Covid-19 (confirmed by a positive test) and why I have gotten the amazing support needed as my case of Covid-19 became chronic. I have experienced tremendous gaslighting from specialists and my former PCP in regards to Covid-19, and Dr. Kumar has been the ONE practitioner that has actually listened to and truly supported my Covid-19 symptoms and experiences. She is extremely knowledgeable, will do everything that she can to educate you about your health and next steps, and is the greatest medical ally I've ever had. A truly gifted doctor and person, with so much compassion and medical knowledge, and has been my one ray of hope in this long haul Covid-19 fight. Best it gets as far as I'm concerned.

Dr. Kumar is an excellent primary care doctor who has several healing modalities at her fingertips. She listens carefully to her patients & will go above and beyond to discover the keys to what ails you where other doctors have failed. I highly recommend Dr. Kumar if you are looking for a doctor with expertise, warmth & positivity wrapped up wonderful feeling of comfort, ease & humor!

I have been Dr. Kumar's patient for many years, and trust her implicitly. She is an excellent clinician and asks thoughtful questions. She has a pure heart and truly cares for her patients' well-being. I always feel lighter (in my heart and mind) after I see her. I highly recommend her!

Superb clinician who gives patients time, shows creativity, and has solid diagnostic skills.

Dr. Kumar is a wonderful doctor who takes her time and explains everything to her patients. She is compassionate, knowledgeable and understanding. When you leave her office you have a good feeling about yourself, knowing all your concerns have been addressed. Her staff goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent skills and knowledge, with love, compassion and understanding
