Can you recommend a good general doctor?

edited November -1 in Prospect Heights
I need a new family doctor -- just a regular general practitioner -- in the Park Slope or Prospect Heights area. She has to be female and she has to: a.) be kind and compassionate; b.) not make me wait an hour or so for a scheduled appointment; c.) have a clean and up-to-date facility; and d.) have a receptionist staff that is professional and courteous. None of these qualities is evident with my current (now former) doctor.

Can you recommend someone you like?

  • If only "Sushipants" was looking for a gyno this thread would be a classic.
  • There are a ton of these threads already, though admittedly the neighborhood favorite(s) don't meet your primary criterion. Still, I'd have a look. People sometimes recommend Maggie Carpenter, as one name I remember hearing. I've heard decent things about Dr. Joan Stroud, on Clinton and Atlantic, though that might be a little far.
    The neighborhood's favorite by far and away seems to be Dr. Raffinan, who's now on 8th Av. and Lincoln Place, and I know he is sharing the practice with a woman, though I haven't heard anything about her. Sorry I can't offer anything more specific.
  • Found the name: It's Elizabeth Schwartzburt - seems to be well liked by her patients.
