Loren Wissner Greene, Md's Online Review Report Card

Insurance She doesn't take insurance. I had to verify that I saw this doctor, but I didn't. I cannotafford her. I have double insurance and apparently it's not good enough. Guess she'sjust for rich people

Wonderful, caring doctor. Very knowledgeable about the latest research.

Allergy to Levothyroxine I absolutely recommend Dr Greene who was my doctor for 30 years. ‘However over the corse of a year I developed an allergy to levothyroxine which is the ingredient of Synthroid the major remedy for hypothyroid. Finally I reviewed the allergy on the Mayo website and yes i belonged. Dr Greene I concluded assumed I was being adversarial and or wanted a medication that was more avant guard. Finally I tried a few other medications with another endocrinologist who over time has given me support. I settled on Armor Thyroid and am doing the bloodwork currently to work on the exact dosage.

Dr Greene is an exceptional doctor. She is thorough, she is caring, she follows up and she spends as much time with you as you need. A dying breed, infortunately. I cannot recommend her enough.

Dr. Greene makes you comfortable and explains the things is a manner that is understandable. She will go the extra mile to make sure you are taken care of properly.

Dr Greene is a very good doctor but terrible at follow up. She never gets back to you about lab test results even when phoned often. Her staff is hopeless as well. She really needs to work on this as it makes me want to change to a more accessible doctor.

I was seeing Dr. Green for several months with no improvement in my condition. To start, she never saw me on time. In fact, her assistant would call me on many occasions asking me to come 2 or 3 hours after my scheduled appointment because "Dr. Greene is very busy and she is running late...." This was very frustrating to me because my time is equally as valuable as Dr. Greene's. She clearly did not agree. During the appointment, which would last anywhere from 1 to 2 hours - all I did was watch her type my chart into her computer. The physical exam and discussion took no longer than 15 minutes. I am currently Hypothyroid from RAI treatment to treat Graves disease. I feel terrible all the time. When discussing Synthroid levels, she actually told me that she sees many patients just like me. We complain about feeling Hypo symptoms but the blood work comes back in range. She said, "I call these people Synthroid junkies" SYNTHROID JUNKIES?!!! This is what she is calling her patients who come to her for help - like I did! Synthroid. Junkies. She also told me she didn't know anything about Progesterone and that she was not a "Brain Fog" doctor (Brain Fog is a terrible symptom from being HYPO) What arrogance!. After months of seeing her my condition never improved. She suggested I go through with many unnecessary tests, she could never remember my case, she could never remember my name and she would never called back. I would have to call her for weeks before she decided to call me back. And, of course, she would be rude and nasty on the phone, as if I was bothering her. I was completely disappointed in her because she was so highly recommended. (Which now I see is completely OVER RATED) I was hopeful that this would be the doctor that could really help me. Sad to say, she was not. Lastly - she charged me about $300 an appointment - and ONLY TAKES CASH. I would have to leave her office and go to an ATM machine 2 blocks away! Very unprofessional and Very over rated, There are many Doctor's out there. Do not waste your time with this one no matter how tempting the positive reviews may be.

LWG is one of the greats. She is more experienced in endocrine/thyroid than anyone I know. I have a more difficult case and she always got it right. She referred me to a great surgeon when I got breast cancer. She's not in it for the money but for the love of medicine and patient care. She has gone above and beyond for me and I will never be able to repay her. Bless this doctor!

An excellent, smart and caring doctor.

I'm her patient for 6 years. I always get excellent attention. The time that I wait is the time that she take for me or more. Both, her secretary and her are really professionals and good persons.
