Dr Kushner is the best. She has taken care of our family for several years. She has diagnosed life threatening illness and referred us immediately to appropriate specialists. Her relationships with a network of specialist physicians has provided us with timely response to developing crises. We have seen her office over scheduled resulting in the occasional long wait due primarily to her determination to provide each patient the time required for evaluation. However, if you are really sick she will work you in the day you call. It is a tradeoff that is highly beneficial to the patient. She is straight forward and direct. Her website says that she treats each patient as a family member. Simply put she does.
