    Less empathetic , cynical, mean, feisty, money oriented, short-tempered. I think it is better for her to resign.

    I saw her only once, but she was kind, knowledgeable, and I wasn’t made to feel rushed. Therefore, my first impression is very positive.

    I went to Dr. Millstein for over 2 years and I can say that during that time it felt like I had no doctor at all. She is extremely condescending and unable to think outside of the box, both qualities that I do not appreciate when there are so many bright doctors around. I am 21 and found that especially with my age she failed to listen to my concerns and chose to stick with the most generic fixes to problems even when I wanted alternative options. Switched doctors and could not be happier. To be a doctor in this day in age you should be able to connect with your patients and be flexible to different solutions for patients with different needs.

    Dr. Millstein is an amazing doctor!!! She has taken such great care of me and is such a knowledgeable women. I am so lucky to have such a great doctor! I highly recommend her if you can get in as a new patient.

    Despite the fact that Lisa is very thorough, the thing that stands out most to me about her is how money hungry she is. You are forced to make multiple appointments if you have more than one issue to discuss (despite requesting extra time, ahead of time). I once called ahead mentioning I had 2 issues to discuss, went in for my appointment and was lectured to the point of tears about how the government pays her per appointment, not per issue, and ultimately that she was losing money on me.

    On another occasion, I was called by her directly and lectured over the phone about how my visiting a walk-in clinic instead of visiting her office causes her practice to lose money. She was relentless and did not even try to sugar coat it. Lisa makes it quite clear that money is her #1 priority.

    I am sick and tired of being lectured and made to feel bad and that I have done something wrong. No one deserves that from their doctor.

    I will be switching doctors. WITH PLEASURE.

    Dr. Millstein is incredibly knowledgeable and knows her patients' histories and gives sound advice based on them. She is personable and honest, and straight forward with information about prescription drugs, the patient's options for course of treatment and she's gentle, kind, and empathetic to her patients' concerns. I switched from my old doctor to Millstein about 4 years ago and couldn't be happier. It's nice having a young, fresh and incredibly smart and gifted doctor who cares about my medical needs instead of looking at me as a means to their pay cheque. She's wonderful and I would highly recommend her to ANYONE - if she's accepting new patients... not sure if she is.

    She kept looking at her watch impatiently during my yearly routine check-up--I was NOT late for the appointment. Her screening questions were very juvenile, "would you wear a helmet if you ever ride a bicycle or motorcycle?" I was not given any routine blood work for my ANNUAL check-up, which I got yearly with my retired GP since I was a child. Have to make multiple visits if you have more than one or two complaints because she only gets paid by visit or by solving one problem. So if you have arthritis, chronic headache, and flu today, she'll treat your flu but please drag your old body back again next time for the chronic headache and arthritis. She explains things very well though. Excellent team of staff though! Very efficient office running with no long waits (wonder why). There are other young female GPs at the same clinic probably more knowledgeable and care more about the patients than the $$$, but I doubt the difference 'cos they should be under the same payment structure.

    She's so busy trying to make sure her butt is covered that the patient's treatment suffers. Also very dollar oriented. Will only address one thing per visit so she can get you to come again and bill again. She also wants to refer you for EVERYthing! She was unable to instill any confidence in me that she was sure of what she was doing. And when I really needed help, she turned me away. Disappointing.

    Wait is sometimes over an hour and then I'm rushed through my appointment (and I only go 1-2x per year). I had a basic issue and she tried to refer me to a specialist. Hard to get an appointment since she works odd hours. Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

    I have been a patient of Doctor Millstein for the past 6 years. She is a thorough doctor who always listens to your concerns and truly cares about your well being. I agree that she is cautious and refers you or your child to specialists whenever she suspects anything; however, I would rather her be overly cautious than find out that something was missed years later. She has referred my son to quite a few specialists and as worried as I get, it has been worth it to know that somethings were valid and looked after immediately and some were thankfully, not needed. Over the years she has become more caring and I no longer see the $$$ motivation. Give her a chance if you have just started with her...she is well worth the investment in time.
