Dr. Genin always listens to me and explains everything very thoroughly. I never leave having any questions about my care. I consider him highly knowledgeable and very personable.

Reviewed on Sep 9, 2024

The visit itself was great. Dr. Genin is very knowledgeable. He's direct and to the point. However, there is no follow up. After both my visits, he told me he or a staff member would call me with test results after the first visit, and with a plan for next steps after my second visit. Neither one happened. When I message Dr. Genin through MyChart with questions, no one from the office responds with answers. I received a message that my message was received, but nothing beyond that. It is highly frustrating.
