Dr. Kurihara is the best of the best!! Sad to see her go! She is extremely patient, kind and understanding. She takes the time to listen to her patients and makes sure they leave with reassurance and understanding!
She is wonderful. She listens, she understands. I searched for her first available and took it. I would keep going back even if I left the city. She's worth the trip from Brooklyn!

Dr. Kurihara took her time with me and answered all of my health questions. She made me feel very comfortable to bring up all my concerns and was very knowledgeable and professional. She was familiar with my chart even though it was her first time seeing me as a patient. She went above and beyond to help expedite a test. I will continue to request to see her as my practitioner!
