Keil Katherine, MD

She’s amazing. Other doctors have misdiagnosed me, when I knew I had PCOS. Because of the misdiagnoses, I continued to gain weight, grow hair, and my periods were always irregular.
I decided to leave my pediatrician (even though I almost never went, hated him) and give Dr. Keil a try.
She right away diagnosed me with Polycystic ovarian syndrome, put me on medication, and now my period is regular and I am losing weight! Woohoo! She is so sweet, she always asks me how my semester is going, encourages me to do well, and will always be sure I’m feeling great.
The staff is a little rude, but it doesn’t bother me so much. This rating is for DR. KEIL, not other people working in her office.
Heads up: if you visit her for the first time, she will ask you plenty of questions regarding your health, so be prepared.

Love her. My husband and I have been patients for about 10 yrs. Dr. Keil is consistently kind, caring and thorough. She calls to see how you are when not feeling great and offers lots of reassurance when you’re needlessly worried.
I really appreciate having her in our lives.
Dr. Keil has no arrogance or ego. If you think something doesn’t feel right and explain your feelings to her, she is very willing to reassess and change course. This is SO important. She is also a fan of acupuncture and other complementary medicines to work along with her. She only wants the best for you, her patient, and that shines through.
Additionally, she uses her gut. She will say to you, «My gut is telling me this is gonna be ok,» and that is invaluable. Because I know she has seen a lot of scary things. And her experience and intuition is worth it’s weight in gold.

I am very picky about doctors, have been through, at least 8 dentists, half a dozen OBs and other PMDs and let me tell you she is a great primary care doctor, and I have stuck with her for over 10 years!!!
As others have mentioned, she is friendly, seems knowledgeable and she definitely listens when you talk to her.
Not too sure about the new office, since I have not been yet, the staff seems friendly but over the phone is a bit tough to navigate.
Still on 14^th, but the new address has not been changed on Unilocal

I have been a patient for over ten years now and she is as good as it gets.
Terrific medical advice, no bs, and won’t just throw a million pills at the problem.
She’s a real doctor. She listens. She understands.
My only gripe: the secret is out but when you do get an appt she never rushes and is wonderfully thorough.
I can’t imagine a better primary care doctor.

Dr. Keil has been my primary care doctor since I moved to NYC in 1996. I have recommended her to all my friends because she is very attentive and easy to talk to, she always remembers small details about my health history, and it is usually easy to get her on the phone or in to see her in an emergency.

Dr. Keil has now been my doctor for about 3 years. I like that she is straight to the point, gives very simple explanation to any of my concerns and is very knowledgeable. She is warm and easy to talk to; I never hesitate to talk to her very openly, whenever I have a concern. I think establishing a relationship or feeling comfortable with your PCP is very important and Dr. Keil is great at it, I highly recommend her.

I’ve been going to Dr. Keil for about 8 years now and she’s always nice and consistent. The office is easily accessible and the receptionists have been there for a long time (well, at least Jessie).
It’s usually easy to get an emergency appointment, but if you need to do a regular visit, it’s crazy because she’s usually booked for months.
Other than that, she has a great bedside manner and seems really concerned about your well being. The only thing that might be annoying is that she does always refer you to someone else for every little thing, but I guess that’s just being safe. Most times the problem fades away by the time your appointment for the second person comes around.
I would still recommend her though, she’s still a great doctor.

Dr. Keil is a very special doctor. In addition to being experienced and knowledgeable, she is warm, patient, and a fantastic listener. I always feel so comfortable in appointments, and never rushed. I’ve been seeing her for a few years and am so happy I found her.

I really like her. She’s down to earth, very thorough, and nice. I like that her office seems down home and she seems invested in her patients. My appointment with her was quick, but she answered my questions and walked me through next steps. I felt like she was smart and competent, and that she was keen to find the reason behind my health problems.

Dr. Keil is great. She takes the time to listen to your questions and concerns and then answer them the best she can.
I’ve been a patient of hers for 7 years and always find her to be friendly and communicative.
Give yourself time when scheduling a general appointment, but if you have any immediate issue, the office will fit you in as soon as they can.

She’s been my doctor for the past four years now, despite living all the way uptown. Dr. Keil is thorough and a great listener. She gives good recommendations of specialists and is very prompt with communicating results.
Sometimes the office staff can be a bit curt, but it’s a busy office. Most of the time they are quite pleasant and accommodating. Be prepared to wait about a month for routine appointments.
4÷11÷12 updated to add: There is a reason I still schlep down to 14^th street from the 140’s! I’ve had a respiratory issue develop in the last few days and Dr Keil called to check on me later the same day I saw her! Seriously, folks, here you have a knowledgable, friendly, dedicated, caring doctor.
