She is very thorough in her review of my results and next steps. Much appreciated.

5 out of 5 stars

Dr Black is wonderful, caring, and understanding. She listens patiently and answers thoroughly. I wish I could recommend her, but the great doctors are always booked. Just happy I got a spot with her before she stopped accepting new patients. Disappointed because I hoped my daughters could have seen her too.

I am very happy to be treated by Dr. Black . I truster without hesitation. She is very skilled at answering questions and takes the time to do so thoroughly. She is not hurried which is not always easy or praised. She alleviated some worries that I had about one matter. I would certainly recommend her to others.

Dr. Black is attentive and knowledgeable. I also leave the office with a written "after visit summary." If I have a condition that I'm concerned about she responds in an appropriate manner. (My aunt wrote like this in her letters. No wasted space. Old school!) And that may include scans, x-rays or visiting a specialist.

Dr Florence Jaffa was not available, however Dr Laura Black was accepting appointments as it was followup which had a 7 day deadline. I was very comfortable speaking with Dr Black and she explained my options for ongoing care. I was extremely Impressed that DrBlack had read my chart before entering exam room and was on top of my recent history/issues. I would recommend both Dr Florence Jaffa & Dr Black as I have not been seen by a caring, knowledgeable doctor since Dr Migliorato retired. HHC PT care the past few years has gone downhill and both Dr Jaffa & Dr Black have restored my faith @NMain St WHtfd HHC
