Dr. Horowitz and her staff are the best, thrilled with her care and treatment after a vert long fustruting road of health issues that she has been able to help with immensely.
Honestly one of the best experiences all around that I have had by a health care team in the Philly area. From the first person I talked to at the desk, to the last person I talked to before going to get blood work, everyone was efficient and friendly. I was surprised at how quickly I was seen and how quickly the blood work was done. The care provider I had in particular is one of the most friendly and caring physicians I have gone to
Dr. Horowitz is the best doctor I have ever had. She is thorough, she found two hidden precancerous polyps that were missed 6 months prior. She also explains everything in a way that I can understand.
Excellent DOCTOR. [...]
